Book Reviews of Pretty Woman: A Novel

Book Review: Finding Your Inner Strength
Summary: 4 Stars

"Pretty Woman" is an entertaining story about an insecure young woman who discovers confidence and self esteem. Rosalie Gardener Bliss is a successful business woman, whose claim to fame is in the form of her extremely creative business of turning weeds into "Nature's Decorations." However, on a personal note, Rosie has hit rock bottom. After 3 years in a loveless marriage to Kent Bliss (a man about town), Rosie is ready to break loose and really become her own woman. She has allowed him to use and abuse her and now she has decided she is finished with his cheating and flamboyant lifestyle on her money. Coincidently, as Rosie makes up her mind to "throw the bum out," she becomes the winner of the $320 million Wonderball lottery. Controversy and scam play into the storyline when Kent finds out about his wife's amazing luck. He is determined to claim his spousal right on half her winnings, married or not, in any way he can, legal or not! Enter Jack Silver, Rosie's personal trainer and the man behind the idea to train Rosie for the Thanksgiving Triathlon (10-mile run, 5-mile bike ride and 3 mile canoe trip) to reclaim her self-confidence and stand up to the dark forces that surround her life. Jack's trust and faith in Rosie push her to begin a grueling three months of training. The fantasy portion of this story regarding Jack's deceased wife, Martha and the angel oak that took her spirit form, was somewhat over the top, but still I found it to be pleasurable. If you crave a few hours of comfort and relaxation, this book will do the trick!

Summary of Pretty Woman: A Novel

In Fern Michaels's extraordinary, inspiring New York Times bestseller, an overweight woman sets out to improve her life by losing fifty-five pounds -- and ends up changing much more than her dress size!

Rosie Gardener fell under the spell of handsome Kent Bliss, and not even her best friend Vickie could persuade her that her fianc? was a two-timing cad. Now it's her third wedding anniversary, and Rosie, fed up with Kent's mistreatment, realizes her estranged best friend was right. But the day after kicking Kent out and beginning a diet and exercise regime, Rosie experiences another life-changing event: she wins $302 million in the Wonderball lottery. Now with Kent lurking in the shadows to claim a share of her money, Rosie needs her friends more than ever. As she works out under the eye of sexy personal trainer Jack Silver, a stronger new Rosie emerges -- a woman who wants to learn to trust love once again. Can she keep her vow not to be stopped by Kent's bitterness and her own self-doubts and jump into life with a passion she didn't know she possessed?
