Once Upon a Romance #6

by Laurie LeClair

Can't a girl just lead a normal, humdrum life around here? Artist, Paige Sumner is desperate to stay far, far away from the spotlight. She'd had her turn there there with disastrous results. Yet her plans to stay under the radar fall apart when the owner of King's Department Store sees her designs and enlists her in a highly visible venture.

Knocked out of the game, Jay searches for another long term way to support his family. When King's offers him an exclusive merchandise deal, he jumps at the chance. However, he gets more than he bargained for when he gets tangled up with Paige and finds success for him depends on her cooperation. Jay needs her to agree to participate in a steamy, hot new ad campaign for the store and she's determined to sit this one out on the sidelines. Can Paige get past her fear of the spotlight to help Jay earn the money he needs to raise and feed his kid brothers? Or will Paige turn her back on her one chance of redemption and walk away from the man she's falling head over heels in love with?

Reviews

[Jennifer Seaton · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have breezed through the first 6 books of this series since new years, not an easy feat with three young boys. This story did not disappoint, the characters were enjoyable and charming. The novella format once again did a disservice to the story. This could have been a full-length novel and it wouldn't have felt so rushed. Just as I had to do with number 5, I had to go back and reread a few parts to get what was going on because it was rushed and not 100% coherent. You don't need to read the entire series to understand what is going on. Each book stands alone but it doesn't hurt you to breeze through them! You will not be disappointed.

New characters same fairytale remake

Love at first sight / touch yep. Knight and damsel yep. Happy endings of course!
Trigger warning: cancer
Very short feel to the book wish I had a date between the two.

Romance level: kisses

[Pam · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such a fun book and series. They are addictive but at least short and easy to read. Definitely escapism at its finest.

[Cary · Rating 3 out of 5]

So by this time I was getting worried... who would this be about? But it was nice and sweet and a nice ending. I have said before that I really don't like novellas because there is not enough time to develop anything for the characters but since we have met these people over the course of 3 novels and 3 novellas (mostly - always a new love interest to meet!) they felt like the happy family they are portraying! Fairly clean, quick reads. I just wonder how so many smokin' hot bodies can all be in one location all lusting for someone special? Maybe I have never just been to Dallas! Ha!

who doesn't love happy ever after

Once upon a time there was a lonely lady. Away from her family held by obligations. And then came a series of stories who made the lady smile. So thank you for giving me something to smile about

Great series

I love this series of books. This one tugged at my heart with characters that deal with the aftermath of cancer and find their HEA. It is worth reading.
