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?

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - best of the four
I really liked this one. I think it was the best of the four author stories that Gibson has written. It is like everything conspires against her but she remains somewhat sane. I mean how sane would you feel if you thought you were cursed?
I really liked how the past abd present flowed so I did not get a headache trying to figure what was going on.
That is one thing I love about Gibson is her ability to make characters that seem so normal, that you either want them to suceed or fail, but you want to know how it ends.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not Another Bad Book
I think the story should have started with Adele and Zach getting married. We have: Hunky Jock/Hero football guy who seems to be only marginally in love with Adele (but certainly in lust). Adele is pregnant with twins and is moving into the home her arch nemisis to raise the twins and his teenage daughter who is bratty & spolied. All of this in the home which is a shrine to his dead wife. Can anyone truly imagine this? I think in the rush the write the book she missed the real love story here. As I reached the end of the book my one thought was: is the moral of this story that rich, beautiful girls who tortured you in school and made life a living hell REALLY do have power over you?



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Just perfect
Warning - contains spoilers!
Rachel Gibson, one of my all-time favourites produced another hit (a big one).
Not another bad date is all about Adele Harris and her first love Zach Zemantis.
But it's starting and ending with another person - Devon, dead wife of Zach who got pregnant on purpose to get married to Zach (she is an absolute b.... , ehm a not so nice woman) anf of course it worked. Zach did the "right" thing, broke up with Adele and married Devon. I hate it when this happens because IMO marrying without love because someone gets pregnant is a recipe for disaster. But hey, that's only my opinion.
So back to the beginning of the book, Devon just died and God wants her to redo the wrong she did to Adele. But being a - you know what I mean - she is all about making more trouble for Adele.
A few years forward and Adele still has a lot of bad luck with men (thanks to Devon) and ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - 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 during ... Read More
