I'm not big on romances either, but I accepted a review copy because I was interested in the WWII angle.

I love a good romance story, so I don't think that was the hangup. I think the book just missed the mark. It was somehow too clinical.Mom of 5 Boyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285649657071725332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7008131509611971593.post-26863569058675734072010-03-16T22:46:46.021-04:002010-03-16T22:46:46.021-04:00I tried to sign up for the sweepstakes and at the ...I tried to sign up for the sweepstakes and at the bottom it said I was too young to enter this sweepstakes. Not sure how they know my age and I am flattered that they think I am too young for a romance novel, but couldn't find anywhere to contact someone and find out what the deal was. Anyway, I have heard about this novel too and was curious. Thanks for letting us know about it!Staciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14222784959943882318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7008131509611971593.post-71825037182721321392010-03-16T10:03:24.366-04:002010-03-16T10:03:24.366-04:00I think sometimes when we get books like these we ...I think sometimes when we get books like these we just have to be ready for them. Like Bridges of Madison County is so not me, but I adored that book. Maybe because it made me cry, or becasue I read it at a certain point in my life, I don't know. Fireworks sounds like one of those books. <br />It has to catch at the right time.
