BOOK SUMMARY

Savvy stylist Amanda Wright loves Marietta, her hair salon, and her clients, and no client is more dear to her heart than eighty-year-old Bette Justice–even if her years have made her a little fragile. So when Bette asks Amanda to help her convince her determined grandson, Tyler, a successful game designer, that Marietta is the right home for Bette, Amanda can’t say no.

Tyler Justice has a one-track mind–he wants to take care of his beloved grandmother. He can’t understand her resistance to move to Texas and is sure that the young friend she keeps mentioning–Amanda–is taking advantage of his grandmother’s generosity. He reaches Marietta determined to put the salon owner in her place and bring his grandmother home…until smart, kind Amanda starts to tug at his heart in ways he never expected.

But just as Tyler and Amanda start to form a real connection, will a long-buried family secret destroy their chance at love?

CAT'S REVIEW

TAKE A CHANCE ON ME by Jane Porter.  This is a sweet and heartwarming tale.  Amanda is a hard worker, striving to make it on her own and prove, to herself and others, she is more then the poor girl she was growing up.  Tyler is a successful game designer that has trouble trusting and believing in others.  Tyler's grandmother, Bette, adores both of them.  I enjoyed seeing Amanda and Tyler venture into their relationship.  There are ups and downs and Ms. Porter certainly makes it easy to feel the feels and follow along.  I truly liked this story - it's easy and light to read but was soothing to the soul too. I smiled, cried and cheered on the lovely couple throughout.  I certainly recommend you take a chance on this one!  (received ARC for honest review)

Cat's Review

"Beauty's Kiss" by Jane Porter is a sweet, endearing romance.  It's a Cinderella story- shy, quiet librarian swept off her feet by the town's most eligible bachelor!  What's not to love!  Troy, our hero, is back in his hometown to help with his ill father and to attend a ball at the local hotel he has recently refurbished.  He is friendly and kind and everyone, especially the ladies, seem to love him.  Taylor is new to town and feels, for the most part, unwanted and unwelcome by many, due to issues with her brother.  She's nervous and a bit uncomfortable around Troy and Troy works hard to win her over.  I would have liked to have seen a bit more of the romance as it blossomed and also learned a bit more of their backgrounds but do to the brevity of the story, there wasn't time.   This didn't take away from the fairy tale romance - I enjoyed it and wanted more!  It left some questions unanswered but I supposed these will be answered in future stories.  For a quick, light romantic read, this is just right!  ★★★★
