baru abis baca Suddenly Sexy : Linda Francis Lee

Jesse Chapman and Katherine "Katie" Bloom had grown up as neighbors and close friends, despite their age difference. Jesse had helped Katie as she grew up into a lovely lady. He had protected her from bullies and kept her sane when her mother ignored her which was most of the time. In return, Katie loved Jesse for who he was, regardless of his bad boy attitude and ways. Young Katie had been utterly crushed when Jesse left her behind in El Paso, Texas, while he left to become a golf pro.

The audience believed Katie was too prim and proper as a news anchor for KTEX TV. So her best friends Julia and Chloe, who happened to be the station's owner and manager, decided to show the public another side of Katie. "Getting Real With Kate" was done live. The first show was supposed to have a cooking theme with the guest star being a famous chef. Katie was really worried when the chef had not shown up when the two minute air time warning was announced. But when Julia walked in and threw Jesse in as a replacement for the chef, Katie panicked! And after the show, when Julia used guilt to persuade Katie into letting Jesse stay in her guest cottage, Katie came close to a panic attack! How could she possibly survive having Jesse so close to her again? How would she possibly survive when Jesse left her again?

Jesse Chapman was on the verge of winning the PGA Championship. The tournament was in less than a month. The magazines and tabloids constantly told of his winnings on the golf course, as well as, with the string of ladies that came and went. Recently, Jesse had saved a woman's life. The media refused to leave Jesse alone. When Jesse felt himself about to fall apart, he returned to El Paso for a vacation. Instead of relaxing, Jesse found himself still wanting Katie as his own. He also found out that he had a twelve-year-old son named Travis!

** wpon buku  ni dpt 4 1/2 bintang kt amazon.com tp pada sue biasa2 je jln ceritanya untuk bacaan ringan ok la kot.

sabtu lepas settle baca :



bulat bagi ***** kat Maya Iris...

mmg cerita yg menarik.. diolah dgn menarik...
disulam lak ngan hadis2 dr Al-Quran...
byk pengajaran yg bulat dapat dari buku ni...
dia byk mengajar kite tentang alam rumahtangga...

ni petikan kat belakang buku :

Farhan memandang wajah Mira. Perlahan-lahan Farhan menyeka airmata Mira dengan tangannya yang berlumuran darah. terpalit darahnya di pipi Mira. Dia memandang Mira dengan wajah sayang bercampur sakit. Darah yang semakin banyak keluar tidak mencukupi untuk membekalkan ke seluruh tubuhnya. Tubuhnya mula menyekat darah dari mengalir ke tangan dan kaki. Tangan dan kakinya terasa kebas. Darah yang semakin sedikit mengalir dalam tubuhnya lebih diperlukan oleh jantung dan paru-paru. Tubuhnya menggigil kesejukan. Matanya terpejam.

"Abang! Jangan tinggalkan Mira. Buka mata pandanglah Mira, bang. Mira cintakan abang. Mira sayang abang." Mira merintih dalam tangisan yang tidak dapat ditahan. Mira mengusap-usap rambut Farhan. Dia kesal kerana dalam keadaan kritikal baru dia dapat mengucapkan kata-kata keramat itu, walaupun dia tahu suaminya begitu ingin mendengarnya...

congratulations Maya Iris for this very nice & touching story....

baru habis bc novel

kalau ada jodoh-mime afinie

citernya menarik dan byk dialog kelakar. aku geram tul kat si faris coz terlalu menurut kata ibunya. bukan tak boleh ikut tapi jgn sampai mengabaikan perasaan isteri sendiri. dah tu suka buat keputusan melulu tanpa usul periksa.

pyan pulak seorang lelaki zaman moden yg menyukai lagu2 poh yeh2 dan meminati vespa (hb aku panggey siput b a b i). aku suka lelaki yg pandai bermain gitar. romantik jek tapi bila memainkan irama pop yeh2 kelakarlah plak . pyan seorang lelaki manja dan kadangkala tidak matang.

keseluruhannya jalan citer menarik dan membuatkan kita ketawa sendirian pada masa yg sama sedih bila perasaan seorang isteri tidak dipedulikan oleh suaminya

She meets Jada a bank manager. Her unemployed husband has left her with their kids and filed for divorce together with custody and alimony.  Meanwhile, Jada's bestfriend Michelle having problem with her drug dealer husband.

baru lepas habis bace:



sinopsis :
“Apa jadi driver? Hei Risya, dah tak ada jawatan lain ke kat tempat kerja Milah tu sampaikan jawatan driver pun kau terima? Dah-dah, balik kampung aje. Tolong mak kat warung lagi bagus. Apa, kau ingat, kau tu jantan ke. Nak jadi driver.” Marah Mak Timah.

“Kalau saya katakan saya tak kisah untuk memperisterikan awak? Dan saya juga sebenarnya sudah mula menyukai awak, adakah awak akan berubah fikiran dan menerima saya?” soal Farish Hakimi dengan wajah serius.

Sayang, dari hati yang tulus abang nak beritahu sayang yang abang sungguh bahagia dapat menjadi suami sayang. Abang harap, Risya boleh terima abang dalam hidup Risya. Percayalah, abang ikhlas mengambil Risya sebagai isteri abang.”

Sebaik sahaja kaki Farish Hakimi hendak melangkah masuk ke balai berlepas, dia dikejutkan dengan suara yang amat dikenalinya. Suara yang sememangnya amat disayangi, suara yang menyebabkan dia ketawa, suara yang menjadikan hidupnya ceria, suara yang sentiasa berbisik manja di telinganya. Tidak, dia tidak perlu untuk mendengar suara itu lagi. Bukankah suara itu yang telah merobek hatinya? Bukankah suara itu yang telah merobek hatinya? Bukankah suara itu yang telah meragut kepercayaannya?


Komen Bulat :

Jalan cerita ala2 cam biase2... Olahan ok tapi ada gak le part yg agak meleret sikit...

Tapi ape2 pun penulis still berjaya gak le buat Bulat nangis especially part tgh2 sikit...
sebab rase cam bulat lak dalam tu....

Tapi bulat rase next time penulis boleh le cube buat watak hero & heroin yg tak le lawa & hensem cenggitu... sebab boring gak bile hero je mesti hensem, heroin je mesti yg lawa right...?

it's only my 2 centsss... ;)

Congratulations to Siti Rosmizah untuk karya baru ni....

buku yg habis baca..minggu lepas...

P.S i love u & If you could see me now (cecelia Ahern - 2 in 1 compilation)

PS I love u tu rasanya ramai dah bg sinopsis..
my review, a nicely written. menyentuh jiwa kesunyian aku neh...

If you could see me now ~ buku pasal imaginary frens.
pun best gak, but the story a bit slow lah..hehe
pun menyentuh jiwa kesunyian aku...

my rating, dua2 cerita ni sesuai untuk org2 yg rasa diri dia lonely.
moral of the story yg aku leh extract, maybe kita rasa lonely cos org lain takmo get into our life. tp sbnrnya, kita sendiri yg tak bg org lain get into our own life. family is the greatest bond ever...
