Poor Adele Harris. She's 36 years old and the last of her friends to get married. Just as she's throwing herself a personal pity party, her pregnant sister with the seemingly picture-perfect life in Texas calls and jolts Adele back to reality. Her sister has just been dumped by her dentist husband for a much younger woman. Adele leaves Idaho and rushes to her aid in Texas and to help take care of her sister and teenage niece Kendra.
When Adele gets there, her sister is hospitalized with a pregnancy scare. Adele takes over "mom" duties for Kendra. When she goes to pick Kendra up at a wealthy friend's house, she discovers Kendra's friend's father is Adele's college crush -- crush as in she was in love with him and he crushed her heart and married a beautiful, yet not-so-nice, college mate named Devon. Ironically Devon met an early demise and now Adele's college crush is single again.
This book is a good follow-up to Gibson's other novels. She creates likable characters and sets them in motion in fun, easy-to-follow adventures. For a little lighthearted reading, make a date to read NOT ANOTHER BAD DATE.
What does a gal have to do to get a good date in this
town?
Adele Harris can't even begin to answer that question.
She's had so many lousy dates that she's sure she's
cursed. Why else would every man she goes out with
suddenly act like he's lost his mindβand his manners?
Adele thought life couldn't get any more confusing . . .
until she learns the marriage of her seemingly Miss
Perfect sister is on the rocks. So she goes back to their
hometown to give her a shoulder to cry on, only to run
smack into Zach Zemaitis . . . the one who got away.
Texans love God, family, and football, though not always
in that order
Zach, a former pro star, knows all about football. As for
the other two, well, he's doing his best. But when Adele
comes charging back into his lifeβstill all lush curves
and beautiful, big blue eyesβhe wonders if his best is
good enough. After all, he did her wrong. Can a woman with
her track record ever really believe that he's serious
this time . . . or is he destined to be another bad date?
