Read in August, 2011

It’s the first book I’ve read by Nora Roberts. And I liked it. Not from the start though. I’ve read first three chapters and just didn’t feel like continuing. So I put it aside and started another book, which was even worse, so I gave a “Vision in White” another chance. And didn’t regret it. Maybe it was because the plot started moving faster or the characters started growing on me, but I found myself enjoying it.

It’s a common story about a women, who is a photographer and have a wedding business with her three best friends. She has a really selfish and manipulative mother and because of it she also has commitment phobia. Then she meets a man and this is what the story is about. See, nothing unusual. But what was uncommon and there for interesting for me was the man himself. I am used to read about uber-alfa men, who radiate confidence and sexuality.
Carter Maguire is definitely not like this. He is an English literature teacher in high school, wears tweed and glasses (though manage to look sexy in it), feels like criminal if he exceed speed limits and always opens the doors and helps a lady with the coat. If it is not enough, he has a three legs cat, which he saved after car accident and when he is embarrassed or just shy the tips of his ears blush. Aren't you already in love? He is the cutest man I’ve ever read about. Or as one heroine said about him - The Merry Poppins of men.

We all have read stories about confident males courting shy women. There is your chance to read a book about the very sweet man trying to romance a beautiful, energetic, successful woman.
