"A very amusing contemporary romance"
Maddie Summers agrees to becoming a guest on her
friend's popular Savannah TV show, Sophie Knows. The
Valentine's Day theme is 'Marry Me or Move On' and Maddie
will confront her boyfriend Jeffrey Oglethorpe with that
choice on local TV. Jeffrey prefers tabling marriage so
Maddie says she will date others ending their long-term
relationship. Maddie decides to concentrate on her decorating
businesses and tries to persuade her two siblings and their
blood brother/partner Chase Holloway to hire her to do
their homes. Because her tastes run a bit different than
her brothers, Chase is assigned the role to keep Maddie in
line. This task he truly desires because he is willing to
go on Sophie Knows to state that he will gladly marry her. MARRY ME MADDIE is a very amusing contemporary romance
though this reviewer must wonder what type of friend sets
up a buddy for potential failure on TV. The story line is
humorous as Maddie and Chase begin to fall in love while
her brothers want to shotgun (with their fists) Jeffrey
into marrying their sister. Sub-genre fans will want more
jocular sequels starring several key secondary players from
Rita Herron. Harriet Klausner
