I almost never read romance novels. I'm certainly no literary snob---(no one who devours cheesy 'amateur sleuth' mysteries as voraciously as I do can make THAT claim!)---but the romance genre just isn't for me. Spring Chickens, though, WAS for me. It proved an utterly charming, spirit-boosting exception to my general non-romance rule!
I was lured to this book by its premise: people who are (*gasp*!) over the age of 45 discovering that it's never too late for new beginnings. Just as I'd hoped, it...more

I received this book through the goodreads giveaway and the author graciously autographed it for me as well. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. The story was very charming and had its titillating parts as well. I'm not much of a romance novel fan, but this one had me at "hankering". I really enjoyed it Margaret...thank you!!!!

Where do I even begin? There are so many reasons why I adored this book. I love that the main characters are a little more mature than your typical romance novel hero and heroine. Lynne Prescott, the seasoned city-slicker, runs away to the town of Heartsfield, Arkansas in order to sell her grandparents’ farm. There she meets Bram Hatchett, Paul Newman’s ‘hotter, sexier, younger, infinitely more accessible clone’ and, conveniently enough, her new neighbour. Most men woo a pretty girl with flowers...more
Sweeter than all the tea in the south.

I just finished reading the dark Guild Hunter series by Nalini Singh so I really need a light & refreshing sweet book to read and let me tell you, Spring Chickens hit that mark. I adored it.
I'm a sucker for a southern man with their drawl and gentlemanly manners. Oh boy, Bram had it all. He loves and respects his mama, dotes on his daughter and he can flirt without being obnoxious. I think I kinda fell in love wi...more

Not only is the title funny, the book had me laughing all the way to the end. Except for the really touching parts that made me cry. Yes, this is a book that touches your heart and makes you root for the characters from page one.
Margaret Ethridge is a talented writer and her wordsmithing had me feeling as if I was right there in Arkansas. Definitely put this one on your summer reading list!

I've read this twice now, and fell more in love with Lynne and Bram the second time. Great read!
An adorable book! A sweet love story where the lead characters are not spring chickens, but mature adults in their 50's who have already loved, lost, and learned much in their lives. Spring Chickens is a funny but poignant story that anyone can relate to. It's also full of hope and warmth and the joy that comes from finding that one place where you truly belong.

Margaret Ethridge lives with a sweet-talking Southern gentleman who claims to be her lawfully-wedded husband. She is the (not-so-wicked-but-she-has-her-moments) step-mother to their two children, the adoring mistress of three spoiled dogs, the food purveyor to eleven hungry goldfish, and the comic foil for one rather impertinent house rabbit who thinks he rules the roost.
