The Rogue gets roped!,
By
This review is from: Taming Ben (Paperback)
To use an over used cliche, Colleen Faulkner has saved the best for last. When Ben Gordon tracks down the owner of Sayer and Sons, the new painting company in Land's End, to complain about what a terrible job has been done, he is surprised to find that Sayer is a beautiful woman. Another thing 'Confirmed' Bachelor #3 does not know is that Mackenzie Sayer knew him in High School and that she still harbors the sting of a broken heart.Taming Ben is filled with heat, heart, and surprises galore, none of which I want to reveal here, I mean why spoil the fun of discovery for you? If I had any complaints, they would be 1) not enough Owen or Zack, I missed their playful ribbing and 2) this marks the end of the series. Perhaps Ms. Faulkner could do a sequel series with the Bachelors Inc kids finding their life long loves? Highly recommended, the series is a keeper.

delightful entertainment!,

This review is from: Taming Ben (Paperback)
Ben contracted Sayer and Sons to paint his living room, but the poor quality work and the painters drinking on the job lead to his complaining to the owner of the company. Little did he suspect the owner of Sayer and Sons is a woman. Nor does he realize that the forthright, intriguing woman in front of him is a woman from his past. Mackenzie finds herself infuriated. Ben broke her heart twenty years ago, and didn't even remember her. She had been too tall, too fat and too quite to garner the attention of a jock like him. So his attraction now, while not unwanted, still disconcerts her. Granted, Mackenzie's thinner, blonder, and wears contacts, but she's never let go of the fat girl within. Besides, Ben turned her down for the prom. He's nothing but a playboy now, and she's determined that either she's not going to play, or she's going to play for keeps. TAMING BEN provides delightful entertainment. Colleen Faulkner tackles difficult issues within the bounds of traditional, sensual romance. Ben's bewilderment sharply contrasts Mackenzie's frustration, humorously contrasting male and female viewpoints, resulting in a pleasing romance. This warm, funny romance is a definite keeper. Very highly recommended.

Great End to the Bachelors series,
By
This review is from: Taming Ben (Paperback)
I have to admit that Colleen Faulkner is becoming one of my favorite authors. I read all three of the Bachelors, Inc. books and I enjoyed them all. I thought by the last book I would lose interest in these characters, but I was so wrong. I love how Mrs. Faulkner used all of the core characters in all three books yet was still able to single out one bachelor at a time. One thing that stuck with me is the character of Max, Bens grandfather, I remember in one of the other two books that Max said Ben would be the one to fall the hardest for the right woman, and it was great to see that he was right. In fact, what happens to Max himself (which I will not give away), but it plays a big part in the decisions that his son makes. One thing that is always disappointing to me is when a series ends and it always leaves you wanting more. I was delighted to read the last chapter of this book to see that Faulkner had jumped ahead ten years to let us know how the characters lives had turned out. This book was a great read and I hope to read more of Faulkner's work in the future.
