Title: Two Wrongs Make A Right
Author : Ann Everett
Genre: Romance
Genre: Romance
All Quinn Dorsey wants is a white picket fence fairy tale. But after another failed relationship, and her biological clock ticking double time, she's decided happily-ever-after isn't in the Tarot cards. Forget Cupid, it's time to take matters into her own hands. A simple seduction should do the trick, but then everything that can go wrong...does!
Dak Savage isn't interested in commitment. He's been burned by women before - lied to, used, even shot. Hell, he considers women a curse and has one rule he never breaks - don't pick up women in bars. But when he agrees to a guys' night out and meets up with feisty, fast talking Quinn, his rule shatters like a dropped shot glass.
A one night stand turns into a long weekend and as Quinn tries to abandon her ridiculous scheme, she finds herself nose-to-nose and toe-to-toe with the best mistake she's ever made.
4 out of 5 stars
This book had me on an emotional roller coaster. I wanted both Dak and Quinn to find their HEA, but I also wanted them to find it together. They spent so much time debating and being silly that I felt like they were never going to get things straight.
In some ways, I felt like I’d read this story before: woman approaching menopause, but she desperately wants a baby and she’ll do just about anything to get it. Man suckered into bed with a woman he doesn’t really know, but he goes all too willingly anyway. But Ms. Everett through in things that made this story more unique than the cliche old tale.
One of my first notes in this book is what a horrible mom Quinn has. Any mom that would tell their daughter that a man didn’t have to love you to marry you is just crazy. And to tell your daughter that she shouldn’t dress in a way that makes her happy or decorate in a way that isn’t herself, it’s just all so wrong and I understand why Quinn took so long to actually go see her mom.
And really Dak just seemed too perfect for his own good. He was so sweet and romantic and gave so much of himself to Quinn even when all they were promised was one weekend. The efforts he went to find her after their weekend was over were amazing as well.
I enjoyed this tale and am thankful that I was able to join them on their crazy ride to finding each other. I felt more connected and invested in Dak than Quinn, but I didn't hate her like I have some heroines. I absolutely loved the epilogue and wish I could have more of them.
Ann Everett embraces her small town upbringing and thinks Texans are some of the funniest people on earth. When speaking to writing groups, businesses, book clubs, and non-profit organizations, she incorporates her special brand of wit, making her programs on marketing, self-publishing, and the benefits of laughter, informative and fun.
An award winning and Amazon best-selling author, when she’s not writing, she spends her days listening in on people’s conversations at the local Wal-Mart and numerous other gathering spots. She draws from that research to pen her romance and mystery books, full of southern sass, sizzle, and Texas twang.
Ten things you won’t know about Ann by reading her bio:
She’s been married to the same man since dirt, but introduces him as her “current”
husband.
She loves shopping at thrift stores, because nobody loves a bargain more than she does.
She doesn’t remember her first kiss. Maybe hypnosis would help.
She hates talking on the telephone…so don’t call.
A really sharp pencil makes her happy…part of her OCD.
She secretly wants to get a tattoo. Shh…don’t tell anyone.
A charter member of National Honor Society in high school remains one of her proudest moments. Still can’t
figure out how that happened.
She’s thankful wrinkles aren’t painful.
She sucks at math.
