I have been with my husband since high school. When I read books like Something Desirable by Sherlyn Powell, I am so happy I recognized my soul mate when I did. If I was Adrienne Baxter, I would be pulling my hair out with the decisions of who should it be.
Adrienne has all her ducks lined up in a precise row. The only thing missing is a fine, loving man for herself. When her old flame resurfaces, Adrienne is ecstatic. But when another good looking man shows interest in her, she finds herself in a love triangle. Would it be Brian, the boyfriend who got away years ago because of the long distance relationship? Or, would it be Dexter, the fun and exciting man who keeps everything interesting and spontaneous?
Powell developed real-life, down-to-earth, every day characters. As I read Something Desirable, I could see someone I know going through the same sort of conflicting emotions and stressing over them. The need to know what happened next kept me with the book at my side at all times. However, there were many errors. Some would cause me to speak aloud and shake my head. The use of an editor and or proofreader would help the story to flow better. I recommend Something Desirable to true die-hard romance readers; they will love it.
