Strings Attached - An Avalon Romance
Published in Hardcover by Thomas Bouregy & Co (24 February, 2000)
Author: Amanda Harte
Average review score:

What a treasure of a book.
Rachel and her sister inherit a million dollars each from their grandmother...the only catch is she had to live in grandma's house for a year with a husband, she doesn't have. I was absolutely charmed by both the story line and the characters, which all pulled and tugged on your heartstrings. Ms. Harte did an amazing job in plotting this emotional story about a small town and families who had many things to settle from their early childhoods. The love story is intense. I highly recommend this sleeper of a book that I am sure has no where received the acclaim it deserves. A not to be missed book that will be remembered for a long time. A definite keeper. Kudos to Ms. Harte for a job well done.

Texas Orphan Train
You will love this book. Anyone who has read Kent Conwell's westerns will not be disappointed. You will be on the edge of your seat and the children will have you wishing that you could jump into the pages with them. This is a ten stars book. Mr. Conwell has indeed done it again. I wish that it could have gone on and on. I love his storytelling!!!


Toyota Camry and Lexus Es 300 Automotive Repair Manual: Models Covered: All Toyota Camry, Avalon and Camry Solara and Lexus Es 300 Models 1997 through 2001
Published in Paperback by Haynes Publishing (December, 2001)
Authors: Robert Maddox, Jay Storer, John H. Haynes, and Haynes Publishing
Average review score:

Terrific book! Everyone should have one!
Everyone should get the repair manual for their car from Haynes or Chilton. These are great books that provide very detailed information for you to make most repairs.

I firmly believe it's a good idea to use this as a reference to at least learn to do basic maintenance. This book will end up saving you a lot of money and it will ensure that your car lasts for a long time. For the more experienced do-it-yourselfer, you already know what a great book this is for auto repair, so there's no need to convince you.

If not to do your own repair work, consider this to help you understand your car and better communicate with your mechanic.

For romantics of any age.
I loved this cute, P.G., romantic comedy! Training Tommy is a light, fun read with great messages - you can't judge a book by it's cover and be careful what you pray for. Enjoy it.


Until Our Last Embrace (Avalon Mystery)
Published in Hardcover by Avalon (December, 2001)
Authors: Joyce Lavene and Jim Lavene
Average review score:

Very highly recommended
Sharyn is the third generation of Howards to be elected sheriff in the small town of Diamond Springs, North Carolina. She has her hands full when word of a bear attack throws the town in a tizzy, especially when a reporter prints a false story claiming that the bear was rabid. The victim was Darva Richmond, the sister-in-law to Beau Richmond, a man previously murdered. Her husband was suing his brother's widow over a large inheritance. While the mauling is tragic, no one initially suspects foul play until officers look beyond initial evidence.

As clues are revealed, Darva's husband seems to be the logic suspect. But his bitter family also provides is also suspicious. Further, Darva's aunt, Miss Eleanore, arrives in town with her accusations. Contradictory reports of Darva's marriage add to the confusion as friends report that Darva and husband Donald were the perfect couple, yet family claims that they were always fighting and didn't sleep together. Donald was contesting his brother's will because it was changed during the last few months of Beau Richmond's life. Donald says he brother was stable enough to make out a new will that changed his heir from being his brother to being his new wife. Millions are at stake.

In addition to a touchy investigation, Sharyn finds herself confronting a host of other problems. District Attorney Jack Winter is determined to express his romantic interest and doesn't hesitate to use political machinations for his own purposes. She also must find a date to attend her mother's engagement party, although her mother's marrying Senator Caison Talbot, a man Sharyn neither likes nor trusts. Her deputies seem to be fighting affairs of the heart that leave her short staffed. Further, because she doesn't see herself or her job as desirable, she's clueless in realizing her medical examiner is interested. To top it off, the dry cleaners dyed her uniforms blue.

Authors Joyce and Jim Lavene combine their creative efforts in UNTIL OUR LAST EMBRACE. A touch of levity gives this mystery punch, making it a fast, fun read. Staunchly independent, and chronically curious, Sharyn Howard is a believable, determined heroine blind to her own possible love interests. Further, the conclusion UNTIL OUR LAST EMBRACE proves to be powerful and satisfying even as it keeps the reader guessing until the end. As each book in the series gets even better, you have to constantly remind yourself that Sharyn and the town of Diamond Springs are a work of fiction. Very highly recommended.

Vengeance Tastes Sweet takes the cake
Joani Ascher has done it again. We again join Wally as she meddles in the affairs of her daughter, and in another murder case. The plot is inventive and the characters endearing. I can't wait to see what comes next from such a promising author. I highly recommend this book.

The Whole Dog Catalog
This is a great gift book for that eccentric dog owner you know. It has a large range of practical and extravagant dog "essentials" from different companies. The book also provides sources for these items so that they can be ordered. Great for leaving in reception area of a veterinarian's office.
