Venus Envy by Shannon McKelden
Venus may be a goddess on Mt. Olympus, but she’s been sentenced to play fairy godmother to the lovelorn until Zeus decides she’s learned whatever lesson he might intend. Rachel Greer, bank employee and frequen dater of loser men, is Venus’s latest mission – and it’s not an easy one. Rachel’s relationship history has bruised her so badly that even when a hunky firefighter is practically stalking her (in a good way, honest!) she keeps avoiding him.
McKelden’s characters are quirky and funny, and this novel is a feel-good read that reminds us what the best chick-lit is all about.

Melissa,
Thank you so much for your note! It’s always a treat for authors to hear when people like their books. I would love to be linked to your blog! I checked it out and it’s great. Some really wonderful recommendations there. :-)

How have I missed your blog? I’m a big reader and I love short book reviews to get me interested in a particular book I can find easily. I do some book reviews too, but of the longer variety.
Oh, and I read your Thursday 13 and you mentioned my all time favorite child’s poem: The Swing, by Robert Louis Stevenson. Every time I’m near a swing, I think of it. Because it’s the pleasantest thing a child can do, right?
