Synopsis

A DATE WITH DESTINY 

The moment she turns twenty-five, Kayla Bedford is going to grab her trust-fund money and take off for Paris. She'll drink wine, read at quaint cafés and meet a handsome prince who'll sweep her off her feet. It's been her dream since she was twelve. And now she's so close to realizing it, she's counting down the days. 

But first she's got to do something for her boss-slash-landlord-slash-best-friend. Patrick is a handsome, caring vet. But he needs someone to love, even if he doesn't think so. Yet, just as she finds the perfect person to set him up with, Kayla gets a last-minute case of blinding jealousy. Does she have feelings for Patrick? Should she abandon her dreams to find out? 

And how can he hold her back if he feels the same? 

About Susan Mallery

Author Susan Mallery is a New York Times best-selling author, and has written more than 80 Harlequin and Silhouette romance books, and a number of full-length romance novels. Unbelievably, she began writing in this genre after taking a class offered st a local community center entitled, "How to Write a Romance Novel". It seems almost too simplistic to believe. She now has more than 25 million books sold worldwide. She is known for creating characters who are as familiar as the people next door. They are usually involved in emotional, funny situations that the reader can easily identify with in their own lives.

Susan Mallery grew up in southern California, and admits to moving so many times that her friends used a pencil so her address could be easily changed. She is very much interested in animals and their well-being, so she incorporates various pets in her stories. Mallery's books have been translated into 28 languages. She lives in Washington state with her husband, two cats, and a small poodle who, as she describes it, "has delusions of grandeur".

An interesting side Story is that her friend, author Debbie Macomber gave her a bottle of champagne to open when she had her first New York Times #1 selling novel. In August 2015, she finally made the #1 list with her novel, Thrill Me, which debuted at the #1 spot. Mallery opened the champagne the night she found out the news, and raised a toast to Debbie and to her great readers who helped her reach that goal.

Susan Mallery always promises another year of happy books, and wishes her fans happy reading!

The Girl Of His Dreams is a fantastic read. The friendship/relationship between Kayla and Patrick is realistic and makes it easy to identify with. The side stories add to the plot and don't distract you from the main focus. The only issue I found was the mention of time in the story. Throughout the......more

The Girl of His Dreams: I believe fear of risk is what held Kayla and Patrick back. Kayla loves to take the dogs to the retirement home. I was sorry to hear about her accident but she was able to connect with the you bicyclist. Playing By The Greek's Rules: This is an enduring yet funny story. Lily bel......more

Goodreads review by Donna on July 14, 2017

Oddly enough, I didn't like The Girl of His Dreams, as it seemed a little silly to me. However, I notice that this book by Susan Mallery was written quite a few years ago, and I do like her later books. I did get a kick out of Playing by the Greek's Rules and wouldn't mind trying another book by Sar......more
