IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE is Book 3 in Janet Chapman's
Sinclair Brothers series. I was able to read and enjoy
IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE without having read the previous
two books in the series. IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE is not a
book that has a lot of explicit love scenes, but it is
full of romance, charm, and sparkling dialogue. Both main
characters grow over the course of the story and
experience some major self-discovery.
IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE is not quite the story I had
originally thought it would be. I thought this would be a
conventional "rich boy meets girl" storyline. Instead,
what I got is one of the most delightful and charming
romances I've ever read. Shipping magnate Jesse Sinclair
and designer Cadi Glace have a very unusual and
inauspicious first meeting. However, the chemistry is
almost instantaneous and Jesse is smitten. There is a
feeling of kismet about Jesse and Cadi's romance. I love
Jesse and Cadi and like that the story is told from both
perspectives. Cadi is intelligent as well as kindhearted
and has a dry wit. There is a quick give and take to
their repartee that is reminiscent of a 1930s screwball
comedy.
The supporting characters in IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE, like
Jesse's employees, Cadi's cat Wiggles, and the local
townspeople, add humor to the story and a wonderful
quirkiness. Cadi's friend Stanley Kerr is something of an
enigma and, as his story is slowly revealed, I find that
I only want to know more about him. I hope that Janet
Chapman will have Stanley pop up in a future book. The
element of danger in IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE helps to throw
Jesse and Cadi together and keeps things moving at a fast
pace.
I adore IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE for it's sharp wit,
charming characters, and enchanting romance. IT'S A
WONDERFUL WIFE is a great romance for readers who like to
laugh and enjoy a book that takes them on a journey.
While reading IT'S A WONDERFUL WIFE, I never knew what
would happen next and that made me enjoy the story even
more. I look forward to the next book by Janet Chapman.
Jesse Sinclair and his two brothers spent years dodging the
women his grandfather threw in their path. But then the
matchmaking old wolf died, and his brothers did the
unthinkable: they ran off to Maine to get married.
Now Jesse wants to join them. Convinced the Pine Tree State
must have another eligible woman to spare, he buys a small
island just off Bear Harbor to build a home for his future
family. But as he discovers, finding the woman of your
dreams isn’t as easy as his brothers made it seem. First of
all, the only woman capable of filling those wedding shoes
is Cadi Glace—and unfortunately, she’s already engaged…
So imagine Jesse’s surprise when he finds the aforementioned
Miss Glace hiding out in his camper, charmingly, adorably
drunk. And apparently single….
