Only Mine Fool Gold Book 4 Susan Mallery 9780373775880 Books

I read "Almost Perfect" years ago, enjoyed it and decided to continue with the Fool's Gold series. The books have been ok, but a bit tedious in their predictability, and this installment is no exception and the last one I will be reading. The characters go through a cycle of rehashing their feelings/issues, deciding they will/will not do something, going against the decision and then rehashing their feeling ad nausem without seeming to grow. They justify their feelings and keep talking about not changing their ways/views/etc then suddenly they see the "light of love" and now their world view is different. It makes the books seem longer than they need to be and uninspired because you sit through hours of them going over and over their issue(s) until they realize they're in love without SEEING the progression in they're thinking. I know that it does work like that for some people, but besides "Almost Perfect" one or both of the characters are stuck in this emotional rut they don't leave until the end of the book, which makes the book a job instead of a joy.

However, what tipped me into giving up on the series entirely was I found the male protagonist, Finn Anderson, to be too unrepentantly mean and judgmental. It was bad enough that he was so quick to anger and disinclined to listen to anyone's opinion, but being so quick to judge and mean about it was just too much for me. I dislike snap judgements so he was hard for me to like.

It is a good story in general, but I was getting tired of the cookie cutter nature of the character's development in this series before I was presented with a male lead I just could not like so I won't be reading anymore, but for those looking for a romance with and good story, it may be worth a try.

Only Mine Fool Gold Book 4 Susan Mallery 9780373775880 Books Reviews

This is less a novel than a series of vignettes regarding sub-plots, some of them ridiculous. It's the third in a trilogy and the sixth in a long series (15 books as of 2014) set in Fool's Gold. The problem with a trilogy that is part of a larger series is that it's difficult to have a resounding climax, because you know more stories will be forthcoming. As a Harlequin, you are assured of a happy ending, which removes any suspense you might have felt. Plot #1 Nevada, the third of triplets, had a miserable one-night stand back in college. Now, she's working for Tucker, the standee, or whatever you'd like to call him. His memory of those events is rather hazy, and at least one part of the story is dropped entirely. Plot #2 Denise, Nevada's widowed mother, is reunited with a former flame, who happens to be Montana's boss. Yup, Montana is one of Nevada's sisters, and the subject of the previous book in this trilogy. Plot #3 Cat, Tucker's former lover, is now in town and has decided to experiment with a lesbian relationship, so she's making a play for Nevada. Plot #4 Will, Tucker's best friend, is falling for Jo, the local bar owner. And that's just the list of people-related plots. There are also sub-plots about buried treasure and unwanted sculpture...anyway, this book has lots and lots of fluff, and though it's funnier than previous books in the series, it lacks any punch. There's too much going on, and very little development.
I am still a bit shocked at how bad this book was. I picked it up because I had loved the Fools Gold series and am wondering if this really is the same author. The characters were not believable and there was nothing much to like about any of them. Terrible people doing terrible things to each other might have been a better title. Can't believe I actually spent time and money on that. It is very likely that I will not be buying anymore books from this author.
I drive 50 miles round trip to and from work and Susan Mallery has become my new favorite! I love the way that she creates sequels around this town, Fools Gold. This book was more of her same formula and I haven't gotten tired of it yet. This is your typical re-connection love story and I love how there is always a happy ending in all of her books. The story is basically one about a younger girl who fell in love with one of her older brother's friends who broke her heart in the past. With the guy being kind of clueless about her love for him. He comes back as a successful Contractor for a Casino being built in their little resort-ish town and she hires on working under him. I am always a little caught off guard by the sex. It's pretty explicit. Let's just say I'd never want my to leave my audio book playing while someone else was in the car at certain places in the book! But I still love the way that the author builds the story and by the time the girl has the guy or the guy gets the girl, I want a sequel about more of their story! I love that she mentions some of the characters from other stories in the new ones, and I GET how when a story is done, it is done. But I'd love if she would continue some of the stories and make a sequel about the exact same characters continuing their story. I am hooked. And this was one of the better ones! I'd recommend it!
