Dolores Chance.
When I was falling apart, I fell in love.
It wasn’t supposed to happen like this.
I ran away from life and ended up running into…his dog.
Actually, his dog ran into me. I don’t care for dogs.
Then I met the owner.
Garrett Fox.
When my neighbor’s sister came to visit,
I promised to show her around town.
I’m an investor in things, not people, not emotions.
I’m not a fan of love. I’ve been burned before.
Then I met Dolores.
When a sexy mature, man-of-means encounters a silver vixen,
healing her broken heart might be worth more than gold.
Romance has no age limit.
This story made me smile! My face and my heart! From their funny first meet, through the awesome Wizard of Oz references as they fell in love to the most perfect ending. I smiled and smiled!!
Garrett and Delores were not a perfect match! They were so different! But underneath they were both lonely in their busy lives. Looking for a more and they didn't even know they wanted.
This book showcased some of my favorite things about this authors writing style. L.B. Dunbar writes romance over 40 with PERFECTION. It's real and I can relate to her characters. They could be my friends and I want them to be.
Another thing she does is takes a classic story and weaves in it and makes it part of a modern day romance. This one was the Wizard of Oz!! My favorite!!
We have Garrett (Our TinMan) not wanting to fall in love (no heart involved)
We have Delores (Our Dorothy) who ran away from Georgia (Kansas) to California (Oz).
And a lovable pup Wally (Toto)
This is their path (yellow brick road) to love!!
I have Smiles!!! Nothing but Rainbows and Smiles!!
Wine & Dine is the latest installment in the Sexy Silver Foxes series. Ms. Dunbar hit a home run with this one. I love her silver foxes but what made it a hit was the Wizard of Oz elements. She took two of my favorite tropes and blew me away.
I loved Delores and Garrett. From their chance meeting to the friendship that they forged it was perfection. This was a little bit of an emotional ride for me but with so many smiles along the way. They were both strong and successful in life but still lacked that special connection.
Delores was staying in her brother’s condo in California to try to heal. She is broken after losing her mom. Garrett is the neighbor who agreed to show her around. He wasn’t looking for anything especially not love. But when his dog runs into her it fate takes over.
This is a great addition to the series. I loved this one from the first page. Delores and Garrett’s story was unique and captivating. I cannot wait to see what’s next from Ms. Dunbar.
L.B. Dunbar has been
accused of having an over-active imagination. To her benefit, this imagination
has created over twenty novels, including a small-town world (Sensations
Collection), rock star mayhem (Legendary Rock Star series), MMA chaos (Paradise
Stories), rom-com for the over forty (The Sex Education of M.E. and After
Care), and a suspenseful island for redemption (The Island Duet). Her alter
ego, elda lore, creates magical romance through mythological retellings (Modern
Descendants). Her life revolves around a deep love of reading about fairy
tales, medieval knights, regency debauchery, and strong alpha males. She loves
a deep belly laugh, a strong hug, and an occasional margarita. Her other loves
include being mother to four grown children and wife to the one and only.
