A reviewer

I loved this book. It didn't take me very long to read it. I saw this book on sale and I'm really glad I got it because it was funny, and it was fun to see how Becca found true love and how she and her sisters got along. I would like to read more by this author sometime.

you don't have to be into fashion.....

You don't have to be into fashion to enjoy this book. I bought it while a bargin book and it is worth full price. Funny and likeable.

Great easy read!

If you love fashion, this book is for you! Becca is a girl who knows no self confidence. Slowly she realizes that her life is not what she wants because she has not pursued the thing she loves the most - fashion. She leaves her home in Arizona and moves to CA to pursue her dreams. In finding her inner strength and passions, she finds more than she ever dreamed possible. A wonderful story about hope, love, passion, and fashion.

Good style, Bad story

First off, I really like the way Kendrick writes. Her style is light, humourous, and she is fully of cute and witty puns and proverbs. Her story line and character development, however, could use a little work. I judge a good character by wether or not I can envision them in my mind, and I came up blank for her heroine of this novel. Admittedly, the story idea was creative and sounded like fun (small town girl moves to big city to pursue fashion career) but she doesn't go into it well enough it make it a good plot. I probably would not reccomend this book.

FUN READ

If you want sheer enjoyment in a book, this is the one for you. Beth Kendrick has a great sense of humor and a way of telling a story that is both captivating and entertaining. This is a perfect 'beach read.'

insightful tale

Accepting her boyfriend Kevin Bradley¿s proposal, Becca Davis calls her sister Claire in Los Angeles. Showing no joy, Becca mentions the teddy bear containing the ring Claire suggests dumping his butt. When she speaks to her other sibling Gayle, she once again displays no enthusiasm Gayle suggests dumping his butt. The world¿s safest couple finally argues over Kevin¿s ten year plan until Becca returns the ring ending a five year relationship. --- Encouraged by her two confident older sisters to take a chance in Los Angeles, Becca leaves New York to take the Southern California fashion world by storm. As Kevin frantically pleads with her to come back to him, she struggles with the demanding Beverly Hills prima donnas who reject what they specifically asked for. Making it easier to stay and try yet more difficult and complex is life Wildman Connor Sullivan, the bane of life insurance, whom she desires like nothing she ever felt with reliable Kevin. --- As the center that keeps the story line focused, Becca is a fabulous protagonist struggling with a lack of confidence that conflicts with a desire to design women apparel. Her relationship with Kevin allowed her a safe haven that enabled her to avoid more dangerous males. The support cast that includes her sisters, her former fiancé, her zany demanding customers, and her new hunk provide further insight into the star of the tale. Beth Kendrick provides an insightful look at a talented young woman who lacks the confidence to step out and challenge the world paraphrasing one of her sisters, she has the spirit but not the stomach yet puts on her rubber underwear and finally takes a chance. --- Harriet Klausner
