Product Description:
Will this bad boy make it to the altar? It takes a very special woman to catch a Chandler man...Meet the Chandlers - a trio of sexy brothers and the most eligible men in town...until their mother falls ill. As her three sons gather at her side, she makes two desperate demands: 'Get married! Give me grandchildren!' Foreign correspondent Roman Chandler has always prized his freedom above all else. Now losing a coin toss has sealed this youngest brother's fate. Finding someone to escort down the aisle is the easy part - every wannabe bride in sleepy Yorkshire Falls is itching to get hitched to this gorgeous, globe-trotting Chandler man. But Roman still lusts after the woman who got away. Stunning heartbreaker Charlotte Bronson has come home to put down roots and get her erotic lingerie business off the ground. She wants a man who won't go chasing off to the far corners of the earth for a breaking news story. He wants her to say 'I do'. Will-she or won't-she? Can the love of the right woman transform a go-it-alone guy into a stick-around-forever kind of man?

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Great Winter Read!
I got this book as a gift and I finished it in one sitting! Terribly indulgent I know, but this book was so much fun. Sometimes these types of books can get bogged down with too much negative stuff but this one was lite and the romance was hot! Some books are just meant for pure fun and this is really one of those books!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Cute, but a tad boring
Roman Chandler, a 31-year-old journalist and self-proclaimed lifelong bachelor, loses a coin toss with his also single brothers and finds himself on a quest for a bride. Beautiful Charlotte Bronson broke his heart in high school but will their newly-kindled romance be enough to have a Chandler saying, "I do." Add to the mix a panty-stealer, a meddling mother, and some sexy crochet. Chaos ensues...

Though the Chandler boys had interesting, well-developed personalities, the other characters ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Lacks something...
I had great anticipation going into this book, what I found, however, was disappointment. While I liked the main `heroine', Charlotte, who felt to me like she had real fears and beliefs. I found that Roman was not as likeable. He seemed flat without any realistic characteristics. Throughout the book, although there were ups, there were also downs. Their whole relationship in the book seemed based more on a physical plain than on love or substance. It never really felt like a real relationship.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The best of the trio; that's not saying much though...
When mama Chandler summons her three never married sons to her home to let them know that she has a heart condition and would give anything to hold a grandchild before she dies, the three bachelors decide to make the decision in a sportsmanlike fashion - a coin toss. International journalist Roman Chandler loses the coin toss and sets about finding Mrs. Right, impregnating her, then continuing with his globetrotting career Now if he can just find a gal to accept those terms....

Of course ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Just Too Boring...
This book had so much potential but unfortunately it fell flat early on and never recovered. Even some of the 'lingo' sounded ridiculous. I don't know of too many men who call their friends, pal. Dude, maybe.
There was just nothing interesting to keep this thing going. Roman was actually a great character as was Charlotte. It's too bad their story didn't shine.
