And no sign of any forthcoming babies to rock in ol'
Georgebury, Vermont. For Callie Grey, turning thirty means
coming to grips with the fact that her boss (and five-week
fling) is way overdue in his marriage proposal. And way
off track, because Mark has suddenly announced his
engagement to the company's new Miss Perfect. If that
isn't bad enough, her mom decides to throw her a three-oh
birthday bash in the family funeral home.
Bad goes to worse when she stirs up a crazy relationship
with the town's not so warm and fuzzy veterinarian, Ian
McFarland, in order to flag Mark's attention. So Ian is
more comfortable with animals. . . . So he's formal,
orderly and just a bit tense. The ever-friendly, fun-
loving and spontaneous Callie decides it's time for Ian to
get a personality makeover. But, dang, if he doesn't shock
the heck out of her, she might actually fall for Vermont's
unlikeliest eligible bachelor. . . .
All I Ever Wanted was my first read by Ms. Higgins, but won't be my last. I'm a fan of contemporary romance, and love it when there is some humor in it.
Ms. Higgins is a writer to watch as she has the ability to write the romantic comedy that I crave without making it slapstick, and to me that is a true talent! (Sandi Shilhanek 10:29am September 30, 2010)
