Product Description:

What does a gal have to do to get a good date in this town?

Adele Harris can't even begin to answer that question. She's had so many lousy dates that she's sure she's cursed. Why else would every man she goes out with suddenly act like he's lost his mind—and his manners? Adele thought life couldn't get any more confusing . . . until she learns the marriage of her seemingly Miss Perfect sister is on the rocks. So she goes back to their hometown to give her a shoulder to cry on, only to run smack into Zach Zemaitis . . . the one who got away.

Texans love God, family, and football, though not always in that order

Zach, a former pro star, knows all about football. As for the other two, well, he's doing his best. But when Adele comes charging back into his life—still all lush curves and beautiful, big blue eyes—he wonders if his best is good enough. After all, he did her wrong. Can a woman with her track record ever really believe that he's serious this time . . . or is he destined to be another bad date?

OK, for light while away the time reading, its hard to beat Rachel Gibson. Lots more men read her works than you might imagine. In fact at the lumber camp in Montana where I work (I'm a skidder) most of us guys are always talking about her latest book. Its almost a book review club of sorts though testosterone drenched men who love hearing words like "shaft" "mouth" "suptle" 'killer robots" would never admit that.

Having said that, and having praised the book - well I'm hardly a prude but . . . Why can't her characters practice safe sex?

On page 306, there is an unsafe sexual encounter and THEN they use a condom . . . bad timing (unintended I'm sure)

ciao // gurkha
not so much prudish as wise

- Not another formulaic and uninspired effort by Gibson...
If Adele Harris has to endure another bad date she will scream. What is wrong with the men she dates? They suddenly go stupid, crazy or just plain crude. That probably explains why the sci-fi fantasy novelist is still single at thirty-five while all of her fellow authors friends have met gorgeous men and gotten married. Her luck might just change when she travels to Texas to look after her very pregnant sister after her husband dumps her for a younger model. Zach Zemaitis, former pro-football hero turned high school football coach, now lives in town, having to raise his teenage daughter after his wife dies. Zach had broken Adele's heart while in college. Sparks fly between them when they meet again. But why can't they get it right? They have no idea that Zach's late wife is doing whatever possible to keep Zach and her childhood nemesis apart. She might also be the one responsible for Adele's lousy dates ... Read More

- A Born Entertainer....
Rachel Gibson was born to entertain. I have read nearly all of her books and with perhaps one exception, I don't think I've ever put any of them aside with disappointment, doomed to collect dust, undisturbed for all literary eternity. Let's not exaggerate here folks...'Not Another Bad Date' like all contemporary romance novels is NOT literary rocket science. It is what is is..a fun, feel good, lol beach, bed or bathtime read. It creates a little tug of nostalgia in wondering what it would be like to revisit our youth and the one we might have loved and lost. To recapture the magic in present day. Unfortunately, for those of us who aren't 'storybook' bombshells like Adele, the outcome might not be so happily ever after, but it's still fun to dream. Especially to delight in imagining our arch nemesis taken out by a garbage truck and doomed to the bargain bins of Walmart for all eternity. LOL Gibson rarely disappoints ... Read More

- Fun Read
Have read all of Rachel Gibsons book, and would recommend them all. She makes you care about all of the characters, injects humor and just tells a good story.
