This was an enjoyable book that held my interest. Noah was a heart throb actor who threw everything away with his selfishness, drinking and lack of concern for the future. Now he has a chance to turn everything around. He stopped drinking two years ago and is trying his best to be a caring, likeable person.

Lindsay was a good mom and a good sister, too good! Which brings me to Lindsay's sister Jolie. This girl didn't even deserve to be called human! For 30 years it was her mission in life to make everyone around her miserable because her mother had left her when she was five and taken Lindsay to Hollywood. Yes, terrible but she punished and blamed everyone around her particularly Lindsay. Jolie didn't have one redeeming quality, she was manipultive, insulting and downright cruel! I found it unrealistic that her family hadn't hung her up by her toenails years before!

I was also a little confused as to why Lindsay still found the need to mourn her husband's death and not allow herself (or her son) to have a real life after 8 years. Especially since very little info was given about him.

But that aside I enjoyed this book as I ususally do with Lynn Michaels. The secondary characters were hysterical and I adored them.

I would definitely recommend it!

Return Engagement Lynn Michaels 9780345470010 Books Reviews

Lindsey Varner made up one half of the teen dream couple for six seasons on the "Betwixt and Be Teen" TV series alongside Hollywood heartthrob, Noah Patrick. After having her heart broken by Noah at her 18th birthday, she turned her back on Hollywood, returned to her hometown in Missouri, and married her longtime beau, Mark. Now a widow 16 years later, she is raising their son Trey, and reluctantly agrees to appear in a play written by her sister Jolie, hoping to heal age old scars.

Down on his luck after losing everything and ready to end it all, with the last 2 decades being a drunken blur, Noah has made a deal with the Devil herself in order to regain his life. Lindsey's mother Vivienne Varner is the consummate stage mother and agent. Like a mafia don, she makes Noah an offer he cannot refuse - appear in a reunion play along with his former co-star to generate publicity and help reclaim his career.

It is pretty obvious from Lindsey's reaction when he arrives at the theater that she was not aware. Scheming Jolie seems to be in cahoots with Vivienne, who is bankrolling the project. Jolie is still sore that mama Viv abandoned her when the bright lights of Hollywood beckoned Lindsey. Jolie has spent most of her life alienating her sister and her extended family as a result.

Initially standoffish at having to share the stage with Noah, Lindsey relents, and as the two get reacquainted and start rehearsing their lines, old feelings start to surface, as Noah's fuzzy memories of his drunken youth reveal things he is not sure are real, and Lindsey tries to keep her heart from breaking a second time. They work together to get even with Viv and Jolie for interfering in their lives.

"Return Engagement" is a charming second chance at love story. You pretty much see the plot revelation coming a mile away, but the ride getting there is so enjoyable. The secondary characters (and there are a lot of them) add such a richness and texture to the storyline. How could you not love a story with a character named "Sassy Pantz?"
Love, love, love this book!! I have reread it half a dozen times since I bought it when it first came out and it just gets better with each read.

Noah, the hero, is the main reason I love it so much. He's incredibly hot (a requirement, of course!) but he's also sweetly endearing. He's insecure, he screwed up and he's just starting to get his life back on track. He's a recovering alcoholic who hit rock bottom. The author doesn't gloss over this, but treats it as the never-ending battle that the disease is. Unlike many books, no excuses are offered- no tragic past, no horrible life-altering event that sent him over the edge. He just plain got out of control. Gosh, now I just made it sound like a depressing book but it isn't! We meet him after he has cleaned himself up and is on the upswing. It's wonderful to watch him ride to the top again.

As with all Lynn Michaels books, this one has a colorful array of supporting characters and you'll be laughing out loud. It's one of those books that you just don't want to end. So, I do the next best thing... go back to the beginning and read it again!
