About the author

Sherryl Woods

555 books4,522 followers
With two other careers to her credit before becoming a novelist and four states in which she's lived for extended periods of time, Sherryl Woods has collected friends and memories, along with way too much unnecessary junk.

"The friends are the only things I've brought with me through the years that really matter," she says. "I could probably live without one more chintz teacup, another tin-litho sandpail or another snowglobe, but I need those friends."

The theme of enduring friendships and families is always central to Sherryl's books, including her latest Chesapeake Shores series — THE INN AT EAGLE POINT, FLOWERS ON MAIN and HARBOR LIGHTS.

Author of more than 100 romance and mystery novels, Sherryl Woods grew up in Virginia. Over the years she had lived in Ohio and Florida, as well as California. Currently she divides her time between Key Biscayne, Florida and Colonial Beach, Virginia, the small, river-front town where she spent her childhood summers.

A graduate of Ohio State University School of Journalism, Sherryl spent more than ten years as a journalist, most of them as a television critic for newspapers in Ohio and Florida. For several years she also coordinated a motivational program for the more than 8,000 employees at the University of Miami-Jackson Memorial Medical Center.

Her first book, RESTORING LOVE, was published in 1982 by Dell Candlelight Ecstasy under the pseudonym of Suzanne Sherrill. Her second book, SAND CASTLES, under the pseudonym of Alexandra Kirk, was published later that same year by Bantam. She began using her own name when she moved to the Second Chance at Love line at Berkley Publishing. In 1986, she began writing full-time and also began her long career at Silhouette Books with the Desire title NOT AT EIGHT, DARLING, set in the world of television which she covered for so many years.

In addition to her more than 75 romances for Silhouette Desire and Special Edition, she has written thirteen mysteries — nine in the Amanda Roberts series and four in the Molly DeWitt series.

When she's not writing or reading, Sherryl loves to garden, though she's not at her best on a riding lawn mower. She also loves tennis, theater, and ballet, even though her top spin has long since vanished, she's never set foot on a stage, and she's way too uncoordinated to dance. She also loves baseball and claims anyone who's ever seen Kevin Costner in "Bull Durham" can understand why.

Cute story. The hero and heroine had mutual crushes on each other back in high school but except for a single dance, never acted on it. He was the town bad boy who had to leave to get away from his reputation to accomplish anything. She was the town good girl who was desperate to escape and become a wildly successful supermodel in New York. Now her career has collapsed and she's not sure she wants to resurrect it, so she's come home to Wyoming (or maybe Montana) to daddy's fishing mansion (they call it a cabin, but the description is more mansion like) to think. Except the hero shows up to disturb her sulk.

They spend a lot of time in silly but entertaining squabbling. They fall into bed. They each jump to a lot of conclusions about the other. Her family meddles. They get to know each other better, and eventually go back to the scenes of earlier difficulties and exorcize the past. The proposal scene didn't make a lot of sense to me. I personally dislike stories where the hero is all "I know what you need better than you do." And this had a lot of elements of that. The hero throws a hissy fit and gets away with it, but when the heroine is equally hurt and angry, (which isn't really explained) she is forced to talk it out. That annoyed me. It was almost like she didn't have a right to her feelings-- which weren't explained and made it seem more like the author didn't think she had a right to them either, and if so, why was the scene there? Still the story had a lot of entertaining sparks. It was fun to read, even if some of the attitudes and actions didn't make a lot of sense to me. I liked it.

I just loved this one... Her daddy is his protector, his friend, his mentor... And he wants them together. She's never been a recless, always been perfect. Even though, she falls for the guy with the bad attitude and the kick ass motorcircle... He wants to be perfect for her, but still been himself. He helps her go through her rough times and her lack of selfsteem. This one has everything to be the perfect bedside story.

Really 2.5 stars. Not really much of a story line and the ending felt really rushed to me.
