Book Description

Jan 1 1998 Avon Light Contemporary Romances
Truly Unforgetabe

Georgeanne Howard, charm school graduate and Southern belle extraordinaire, leaves her fianci at the altar when she realizes she just can't marry a man old enough to be her grandfather, no matter how rich he is. John Kowalsky unknowingly helps her escape, and only when it's too late does he realize that he's absconded with his boss's bride. At the height of his hockey career, this bad boy isn't looking to be anybody's savior but his own, no matter how beautiful this angel may be. But a long night stretches ahead of them--a night too sultry to resist temptation.

When Georgeanne and John meet again, she is on her way to becoming Seattle's domestic darling and he is past his hellraising days. But he is shocked to learn that their single unforgettable night in paradise produced a daughter, and he is determined to be part of her life. Georgeanne has loved John since the moment she jumped into his little red Corvette seven years ago, but she doesn't want to risk her heart again. Is he really a changed man? And will he risk the wrath of his boss, and one final chance at glory, to prove that this time his love will be everlasting?

Product Description

From Amazon

In this saucy romance, charm-school graduate Georgeanne Howard has only two real talents: cooking and talking. Her Mae West-like body, though, is what attracts Virgil Duffy, a man old enough to be her grandfather but richer than Croesus. But when it comes time to actually marry Duffy, Georgeanne just can't go though with it. She makes her escape with bad boy John Kowalsky, the star hockey player for the team that Duffy owns. John has no idea that the gorgeous babe he is about to have a one-night stand with happens to be his boss's bride-to-be. It's not an auspicious start for a romance, but romance Georgeanne he does. Seven years later, Kowalsky discovers that their one night of unforgettable passion produced an incorrigible little girl who is even wilder than her parents--and Georgeanne is even more beautiful than he remembered.

2.0 out of 5 stars 2 stars for potential, but...... Nov 5 2003
By Isobel
Format:Mass Market Paperback
it never went anywhere. The whole synopsis of the book occurred in the first 50 pages and then there were 250 more to go and I could care less. There was no chemistry between the h/h the way there was in See Jane Score and True Confessions. And as for their daughter, she was the sterotypical annoying kid who talks baby talk even though she's seven years old. Gibson tried to show that the h/h had their vulnerabilities and were wounded souls, but she never brought that out onto the pages. I'd skip this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not her best Mar 21 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
It's probably not fair that this was the third hockey romance that I read in a short time period because while it's a very good book, it had trouble with the competition. Georgeanne and John were likable enough characters but the story just does not stand up to Body Check by Deirdre Martin (the best of the three) or Rachel Gibson's latest book, See Jane Score.

1.0 out of 5 stars Simply SUCKS Feb 19 2001
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Your protagonist is a bimbo (I try to be nice) Georgeanne. SHe's big breasted, and gorgeous but has the brain of a bimbo.

Your guy is totally perfect: he likes fleshy women, doesn't believe in dating older/younger partners, and is totally into commitment. Sounds like a puppy, not a man.

If taht wasn't enough, Rachel Gibson has a weakness for hackneyed writing. How many times have I heard of female protagonists with "silky" hair? The cliches are endless and drive you crazy. I am suprised she has won so many awards; looks like standards are falling.

Overall, this is a perfect, happily ending story. It is sickening at times. But hey, some people like that crap.

2.0 out of 5 stars One cliche after another. I've read better romances and much better...
I love a good romance, but this book isn't quite a "good" romance. It's lukewarm at best. Not the best romance I've ever read, but not the worst either. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Hated the hero.
I haven't finished the book yet, but I just had to chime in and confirm that this book has the most unappealing, unsympathetic hero of any romance I've read in a long while. Read more
