"What a great story! I started reading this book in the middle of the week and neglected my work because I was so drawn in to Libby's story. I had to wrench myself away each day until the weekend, and then I literally stayed glued to the book for hours to find out what happened.
However, I found myself slowing down towards the end because I wanted the story to keep going forever, you know how that feels--when you want to savor the characters and the story and not have it end. And I wondered if I'd like how it ended...there were so many ways it could go.
No spoilers here...read it for yourself to find out. You will be glad you did."

Review for Mr. Right-Enough
5.0 out of 5 stars Mr. Right-Enough is Right in many ways
By Karolus Y Smejda
"I couldn't put the book down. I read it in several days, which for me is unusual because I have limited time for reading. The story is simple, but elegant. No wasted words; no extra paragraphs! As a result, I slipped from one scene to another, laughing at the twists and turns, and was done before I realized it. The laughter came not so much as a result of slapstick, but as a result of the honest portrayal of the human condition. Every character is palpable, taking up residence in my head, and every character also acts with authenticity from his or her own point of view, which is clearly articulated. Enough said. Buy it and read it!"

My Favorite Review!
This is the reason I write, to tell a story that will touch someone. Thank you Alicia, for giving my book to your friend for her 50th birthday and for sharing these words.
“Funny, I laughed reading through the whole thing. She is so me. Was she stalking me? Her character's life so paralleled mine. Really, her girlfriend marrying her high school sweetheart? hmmmmm. Even her relationship with her boyfriend and the calling stand off - Me and Joe all the time! And the passage when her dad dies, literally the exact words were uttered when my mom called me when my brother died. Scary Scary Scary. And Joe and I are in the same place in our relationship. He wants more, I want less. He hates my independence and does things to thwart my independence, to beat me to the punch so to speak. Funny, funny, funny. I saw myself all over this book, except I don't have a hunky ex-boyfriend waiting in the wings to sweep me off my feet! Thank you! What a great gift. Too bad she hasn't written more. I read the book in one night - couldn't put it down! “
