The truth about fairy tales Jan 01, 2008
By Susan Hanley Fantastic feelgood romance for the modern woman - wonderful locations, interesting friends and an unexpected ending; what more could you want from a novel? K T Casha has a total grip on the problems faced by the older, single woman in society today and provides not only an escapist romp but also a thoughtful conclusion that could provide many women with a guide to dealing with the ups and downs of dating in 2008. I would thoroughly recommend this novel and have, in fact, given it to ten of my closest friends as Christmas presents!!

Sweet Story of Love and Self-discovery Feb 08, 2008
By 365andMe Cate McCormack at age forty-six is a successful author. Her book is being made into a film by Wyatt Productions. She's been invited by Jack Wyatt to meet the director of the movie in Venice. Having had a string of bad relationships, she's about given up on love completely when she meets Andrei Siwek.
Thanks to some fancy manipulating from her lifelong friend and personal assistant, Caroline Harrison, Cate won't be going alone on her trip. Andrei, who is fourteen years her junior, will be attending as her bodyguard. It's a job he takes seriously.
As their relationship evolves, both have their own personal demons to contend with, not to mention the media barking at their heals. In this beautiful love story, the reader will wonder up until the last pages whether or not these two will overcome the obstacles in their path and find happiness with each other.
K. T. Casha understands the sweet vanity of the forty-something woman in this novel about self-discovery and love.

book club pick Jun 25, 2008
By Mary Jacobs I bought this book after reading J Kaye Oldner's review and I loved it. This is a contemporary story dealing with some pretty interesting issues that face successful single women: friendships, relationships, who they can trust and who's trying to take advantage. The writing style is pacey and engaging and the plot wonderfully glamorous with an unexpected twist at the end. I loved the fact that the heroine is in her forties: this age group (mine) is under-represented in modern fiction and I totally related to the way she felt and the choices she made. I raved about this one to my book club and we've decided to put it on our summer reading list. I am expecting some pretty animated discussions!

This book will surprise you Aug 24, 2008
By J. H. M. Dathan
"Matt Dathan"
The title of the book tells it as it is...this is a story about a woman who struggles to overcome her own inability to separate the truth about real life from her childish view of love as a fairy tale. Casha's writing style is direct and she quickly draws you into her heroine's world - itself a modern-day fairy tale. The pace doesn't let up and you will find yourself thrown into the story which unfolds with a confidence that simply carries you along. As for the theme of an older woman falling for a much younger man, don't let that put you off. By the end, that whole issue simply disappears as the story concludes in what you know is the right way. This is also a great holiday read, especially if you are traveling to south-western France or Venice. If you liked this book then you are sure to love KT Casha's other one - Best Actor.Best Actor
