Hello Friends,
Author, D.D. Line, gave me permission to reblog
one of her romance book reviews. I thought it might be an interesting read to
add to the pile of Christmas holiday books.
Book
Review by D.D. Line….
“The
Point Of Love” by Monique Mulligan
The
Blurb
New girl in
town and journalist, Lexie, has been targeted by developers who want to sell
her their vision for a marina at Mangles Bay. On paper, the proposal looks
good, but when Hands Off Point Peron spokesman and Thor-lookalike Andrew
Fletcher takes her to nearby Point Peron, she starts to have second thoughts.
A date at
Penguin Island sets the scene for love, but when Lexie’s front page story about
the marina is published, Andrew is far from impressed and wants nothing to do
with her. Will Lexie be able to turn the situation around? Or is the story a
deal-breaker for Andrew?
With
gorgeous coastal settings and laugh-out-loud antics, The Point of Love is like
a sweet breath of fresh air for the romantic’s soul.
Lexie is working hard in her journalism career
despite the editor-from-hell’s dubious input. She’s chasing all the angles to
perfect her first front page story, and if interviewing the sexiest man she’s
ever seen is part of the bargain, well, she’s going to pull on her big girl
panties and get on with it.
Of course, she never intended flashing said
panties, but Thor, er, she means Andrew, doesn’t seem to mind. In fact, he
takes her on a wonderful date and shows her why he loves the bay he’s so keen
to protect.
But when Lexie’s story is printed, an
embarrassed Andrew cuts her off cold. He won’t let Lexi explain. He doesn’t
want to hear the truth. With other readers voicing their concerns over her
article, Lexie is at a loss what to do. One thing’s for certain, if she wants
Andrew back, Lexie must turn the headlines around or risk losing not only her
career, but the love of her life too.
I loved the comedic moments, innuendo, and word
play. (The story stayed on the sweet side.) I also liked the way it showed how
difficult relationships are if the people involved in them aren’t prepared to
listen. A fun, humorous, thought provoking story.
