The reason that this book is my favorite romance of all time is because it was totally different from the romances I read, back in the day when I really liked reading romances. Heroines were not Mean Girls, like Sugar Beth was. Really. Heroines were goody-two-shoes, who had troubled pasts, but they ...
There are a few similarities between this book and Call Me Irresistible by the same author. A woman in a small town, broke and down on her luck, being persecuted by pretty much the entire town. A teenager turns to the heroine for advice. The plucky heroine endures the cruelty and the town gradually ...
I'm just not sure about this one. There were some great lines and funny moment,s but the main characters weren't exactly likeable. I never fully got behind them, but I managed to enjoy the book more and more an it went off. If it hadn't been S.E.P. I wouldn't have kept reading after the beginning. T...
found myself both loving & hating this book. Some of the characters with their flawed humanity were so easy to identify with and understand the painful motives that drove them. I totally got Beth & Winnie's angst towards each other, but the Sea-willows long-standing resentment towards her was bizarr...
So I thought this was a great story. I love the idea of the "queen" of a small, Southern town returning in dire straits. Sugar Beth was tough, yet vulnerable. (Having grown up in a Southern-based household, the so-very-Southern things they said cracked me up! Sugar Beth's name being one of the.) Som...
This was a re-read. First read it the year it was published and I remembered very little of it so it felt brand new to me. Loved it and will likely re-read in a few years. I like that it was a stand-alone and therefore didn't have pages devoted to catching up on old characters or introducing new on...
This was one of those books that once I started reading I couldn’t put down. I really loved the whole story and also the characters. It was funny, sexy and touching at the same time. After reading this I will surely check out Susan Elizabeth Phillips’ other books.Thanks to Aly for recommending this ...
I absolutely adore Susan Elizabeth Phillips, she is one of my favorite authors ever! Okay, just had to say that first! Now, on with the review of one of my favorite books in the entire world...Sugar Beth? Did I read that right? Sure did! How amazing is that name? When I saw this book I had gotten no...
The 4-star rating for this book is largely on the strength of the audio book version. The magnificent Anna Fields reads this book and gives it a life and a flair that I didn't find on the written page when I initially read it several years earlier.
