Blind Dates and Other Disasters

 Blind Dates and Other Disasters- Ally Blake/ Fiona Harper/ Barbara Hannay

Blind Dates & Other Disasters

The book contains three separate contemporary romance tales.  Based on the title and cover, I was expecting some funny reads.  What we got instead were standard romance reads.

The first story by Ally Blake focuses on how we get in our own way. Holly and Jacob’s passion is evident on every page and they have the sort of antagonistic chemistry that makes you smile. A-

The second tale by Fiona Harper got off to a rocky start for me.  I disliked the first guy so much that I couldn’t get past that.  I could never root for him or be on his team.  The plot goes into some deep and difficult scenarios and was less of the light read I was expecting.  B

The last story in the book is outback girl come to the big city.  It’s cute and cheesy but also full of cliche. I’m not sure that it added anything new to the genre but it was a classic romance read. B

Overall: B

You can order a copy here.
