Natale Stenzel (Goodreads Author)

Sydney Garfield has always approached relationships rationally—none of this emotional head-over-heels or opposites-attract business. Marrying Jack Kaiser is the smart thing to do—after all, he’...more

Romances are, by definition, a fantasy, and as such, require a certain amount of suspension of disbelief. Afterall, no one asks why Gandalf didn’t summon Gwaihir to fly the hobbits to Mount Doom or why Dumbledore didn’t use the Time Turner to stop Voldemort from being born, and no one should ask who thought it would be a good idea to make a fluffy romance about wedding dresses into a traumatic story about stalking and violence against w...more

Wedding Dress for Sale wasn't my favorite from Entangled which is a rarity because I usually REALLY LIKE or ABSOLUTELY LOVE what I read from them. It wasn't terrible, it just didn't satisfy my romance needs.
My main issue was that I couldn't get into the main characters of Wedding Dress For Sale. Sydney's reasoning for breaking up with her fiance, Jack, was a little ubsurd although I understood why she needed a change in her life. The whole looking for her fairy-tale was a little confusing and u...more

I'm going to throw in the towel on this one. I have no interest in pushing through to hopefully find something about it that I actually like.
I didn't like the heroine and though I didn't blame her at all for changing her life, I thought she was hateful for how she went about it and had no sympathy for her character. Because we were plopped into the middle of this situation with no real connection to the characters previously I can't figure out why the hero cares enough to upend his life fo...more

I was really looking forward to this book just by looking at the Cinderella type cover, but in the end I was very disappointed with the story. The main reason I didn't finish this book was Sydney; I never connected with her from the beginning, her reason for leaving Jack was so ridiculous, and I couldn't look past it. Jack was too nice person, I wished he would have moved on, and not go after Sydney, but what can he do when he's in LOVE.
I'm sorry but this is not something I would recommend if...more

Wedding Dress for Sale is the first book in the Second-Story Brides series by Natale Stenzel. This book was just okay for me. The relationship between the hero and heroine seemed so distant.
Jack Kaiser has no idea what hit him. Life is good. He is at the top of his game as a real estate god, he's soon to be married to a woman that he loves and they just had the most amazing sex of their entire relationship. It feels like she has finally let go and really truly let him in. And today she's told hi...more

a sweet story, with just enough humor and sass thrown in to keep it entertaining - to access the full review, please visit http://romanticreadsandsuch.wordpress...
Actually, this is closer to 3.5 stars. I would have given it 4, but some of the more annoying character traits kept me from it.
it was okay..some romance and some action. Didn't like the stalking going on or overuse of the word.

I'm a married mother of two, a published author, a dog lover . . . and a lifelong book addict. Now that I've discovered a willing enabler in Goodreads -- yay! -- I would love nothing more than to meet new friends and old who share my obsession with books.
