Reseñas de la Crítica

“With humor and eloquent prose, Gibson brings substance and depth to this loving, modern romance.” ( Publishers Weekly)

Great Chick Lit

I enjoyed True Love and Other Disasters. This is my first Rachel Gibson book but it won’t be my last. If you are looking for a good chick lit read then this is it. Susan Bennett did a great job as narrator, the men were not very manly but after about an hour you get used to it and don’t even notice anymore. I only wish this book had been spun into a series like Susan Elizabeth Phillips Chicago Stars series, I would like to read more about the Seattle Hockey team.

Skipped forward

The story was good but last two chapters she made the heroine turn into a helpless weenie . I had to forward past it.
That behavior was more appropriate for her in the beginning…. Not the end!!!

good book

I like a story with a # happy ending. This one was a good contemporary #feelgood with #quirkyfamilies The performance was pretty good and did not detract from the story. This book has a good laugh or two #funny.

Love it!

Rachel Gibson is one of my absolute favorite authors. This was one of the first books I read by her and the audible version was no disappointment. The narration was great! Just how I would have read it myself.

book hog

wow I bought this thinking it might MIGHT help me through a boring day. Wow it was everything I really was looking for but didn't expect. The only thing that would have made this audio better for me would be different narrations. The best 2 would be from they hockey series bound, captive, drive and at any price. I think those two she be married are required to to be a set on any book. I heard each separate or with others, yet together they made a really good great.

Great book.

Flat, unemotional, semi-versitle with voices

Another Chinook championship.This story continues with another sexy hockey player player finding love and happiness
