I couldn't get to sleep this morning, I work graveshift, so I thought I would start this book and finish it when I woke up. It's a good thing it was such a short piece of work, because I couldn't put it down until I finished it. It was entirely predictable, but it was still a good read. If you...
I liked this short story a bit more than the one before in the series. It was more cutesy, I mean there is almost no conflict in this short story, only a sense of obliviousness. Gina seems very oblivious to what's going on right in front of her, but there are no bad guys in this story. Just a goo...
Short romance - one of a series of short romances - by Susan Hatler. I enjoyed these stories and the characters that go from one book to the next. Rooting for the gals who are all good friends, and the lovely fellas who loved them!! Because these books are so short, and feel so much like a con...
I love love love all of Susan's characters in this series. They are real people. Women I would probably call my friends if I knew them in real life. I had to read each story all the way through because I loved the characters so much! Gina's story hit home with me since I recently went through a ...
Ellen that girl is funny and cute, "I-I think he ate something toxic. Maybe my lip-gloss? Are you the vet? Can you give him the charcoal stuff to make him barf it up?" Then there's Henry whose well flirty, "he studied me a moment with those deep gray eyes. "I think it'll be worth our time." I jus...
Today I just had to read “Love At First Date” again, I really needed it! I'm so glad I did. It was just the cup of tea I craved. I remember the first time I read it and how I found it to be so very refreshing and this time I enjoyed it even more. I have all the books on Kindle but need to get ...
This is a great fun quick sweet romance. I really like the characters and hope to see more of them through the series. Ellen is a planner, which is so not me! I loved reading someone who is so much my opposite and seeing her fall for a guy who would totally do it for me as well! I will say be bot...
This book sat on my kindle for months after receiving it – it was just after I split from my now ex fiancé after finding out he was cheating and reading romance was the last thing I wanted to do. Every time I turned my kindle on it would jump out at me so I eventually gave in, and it was the perf...
After finishing the book I felt a warm feeling, due to the gooey love story with your happy ending, even though you knew from the moment 'Paul' was introduced to us that he was sooo going to be 'the one' This didn't make you lose faith in the story, you just rooted for him and you just wanted the...
I really enjoyed Jill and Ryan's story. They were great for each other. I love the way Jill is a take charge type of girl. And Ryan was the one break her. Everything was perfect, the story, the characters, the out come, all of it. The new job transformations they both did, was all great!!!Really...
Susan Hatler has crafted a very cute novella that will be sure to put a smile on your face while you are reading it! Melanie is terrible with love, she always chooses the wrong guys! So her best friend and roommate Patti gets her to agree to date only by The Boyfriend Bylaws! If Melanie breaks...
I was not impressed with this book. When I got it, I didn't realize it was a novella (my fault). I don't necessarily dislike novellas, but I feel like it's very difficult for most authors to get a fleshed out love story in a short form like a novella - and I feel like Hatler failed in that.She ...
This is a happy book! It made me all giddy and giggly while reading about Melanie's encounters with men and falling in love then falling apart. Good thing, her best- friend Patti is at her beck and call. Whenever she needs her help, she's there, complete with Boyfriend Bylaws. It was hilarious wh...
In those few seconds, with my life out of my own hands, panic filled every pore of my body—until a warm hand gripped my own. At the same time that my heels connected with the side of the building, my gaze flashed right, and beautiful blue eyes greeted me. Paul’s mouth turned upward. “Fancy runni...
He was reading a book, but glanced up as I passed by. “What’s the word?” “You tell me,” I said, slowing my pace, but avoiding his eyes. “That again.” He sounded annoyed. “Ugh.” “Ugh.” I nodded enthusiastically. “Great word. B...
They didn’t seem to notice me parked in the driveway, and I wondered what they could possibly be talking about so intently. Had Nate dropped by just to say hi to her? Had he come by to see me? Although, that made no sense since I didn’t live here anymore. Whatever the reason, Nate’s being here wa...

It was up to me to ease any worry she might have that I’d learn to do her job quickly and proficiently.I could already envision the daily lunches with the girls. . . .Chloe appeared perfectly put together b...
I was wrong. As soon as I stepped inside my condo, I saw my mother sitting on the couch next to Mary Ann. My mom stood. “Well, there you are. I assume your cell phone is broken or you’ve been mugged. At least I hope there’s a good reason why you haven’t called your mother when I’ve been worried s...
Maybe my mixed emotions were because I’d met Dave earlier in the day right after I’d decided that finding the ideal man in my small mountain resort town of Whitefish, Montana, might be a lost cause. Or maybe the flutters in my belly had to do with how much I already liked him. Either way, it didn...

What did you find out?” Eric spoke into the speaker of his Blue-tooth headset as he drove back to his office. “The man had a rough beginning,” Betty said. “The documents state he was put in foster care because of abandonment. Never really found a home, but ended up fighting his way up the social ...
I didn’t even care that were standing in the middle of a church, that Owen had just attempted to have Jonathan’s spirit exiled to another realm, or that Jonathan was wearing a boring gray suit with . . . what were those white collar things called? Eh, didn’t matter. With my arms around his neck, ...
