Bella Rossi may be nearing thirty, but her
life is just starting to get interesting. When her Italian-turned-Texan parents
hand over the family wedding planning business, Bella is determined not to let
them down. She quickly books a "Boot Scoot'n" wedding that would make
any Texan proud. There's only one catch--she's a country music numbskull
because her family only listens to Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. Where will
she find a DJ on such short notice who knows his Alan Jackson from his Keith
Urban?When a misunderstanding leads her to the DJ (and man) of her dreams,
things start falling into place. But with a family like hers, nothing is
guaranteed. Can the perfect Texan wedding survive a pizza-making uncle with mob
ties, an aunt who is a lawsuit waiting to happen, and a massive delivery of 80
cowboy boots? And will Bella ever get to plan her own wedding?
Fools Rush In happens to be one of those
books that I wish I could have lived in. The characters were fun, entertaining
and brought many a smile to my face as I read. I wish I could have been adopted
by the Rossi family. Not only is their every meal time amazing, but their outlook
on life, love, happiness and food had me hooked from the very beginning. I appreciated
the picture that Ms Thompson painted with the characters and their lives and
have to say that there were some amazing little quirks that made this book very
special.
Bella is a sweet heroine who has some lovely
mannerisms. She really does come across as a friend we would all like to have.
DJ our hero is a gorgeous cowboy with a heart of gold which shines through his
every action. Our couple have some great characters in their families and their
circle of friends, who pull the storyline along in a very engaging way. Even
the animals in this story stand out as humorous.
Fools Rush In is a sweet and funny romance with
strong elements of Christianity in it. Church is very important to the people
within the book and this really pulls the story together. Without this element
I think the book would have missed some amazing scenes. I enjoyed this story because
it pulled me into a whole new world of food, God and comedy; they made amazing
companions in a book that had me entertained from beginning to end.
