This sounded like it would be fun too. I think it would be interesting to read about working in a bridal shop. I hate love triangles however and it sounds like that aspect of the book would ruin it for me.Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-76766553131926255062013-07-24T21:56:01.244-07:002013-07-24T21:56:01.244-07:00I found it doubly annoying because I was pretty su...I found it doubly annoying because I was pretty sure how it was going to turn out and I just wanted her to figure that out as well.The Insouciant Sophisticatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03934853089105345052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-64358546932281754922013-07-24T21:55:38.419-07:002013-07-24T21:55:38.419-07:00I love the competent heroine!

I like it when publishers don't go sucking all the personality out of titles. <br /><br />I went through a major chick lit phase around the time Confessions of a Shopaholic came out, but always, <i>always</i> became incredibly frustrated with it as a genre because the leading ladies were so, so hopeless at their jobs. They took so little pride in their work that it was hard to respect them. I like that the new wave of chick lit seems to be featuring heroines that are passionate about their life's work, so much so that it becomes a part of the story. It sounds like Beth Harbison could have done this a little bit more, but points to her for trying!Rubitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14929614007516530129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-50020227224683948082013-07-19T18:25:59.619-07:002013-07-19T18:25:59.619-07:00I was thinking the exact same thing about the titl...I was thinking the exact same thing about the title, love it! Although the basis of this is a love triangle, it doesn't sound frustrating at all. Well, except for the obvious conflicting feelings lol.

I can see how the flip-flopping of the romance would sort of grate on your nerves though, especially given Quinn's past with both guys.
