Helpful Score: 3
Hold the 'phone! We've got another real winner here from Deeanne Gist! If you're like me a handsome hero with *sigh* curly hair and a badge will make you melt anytime and when you throw in just a tad bit of swagger things get out of hand. Let me just say that Luscious Lucious puts all romance heroes to shame with his ability to make overalls sexy. Why is a lawman in overalls? Did I mention that he's undercover disguised as Luke Palmer, troubleman for Southwestern Telegraph and Telephone Company? Okay you're probably thinking this girl is crazy right talking about a Christian fiction hero as sexy but trust me, you will agree with me after having read this book. Don't worry, Love on the Line is still completely PG-rated even though the chemistry between Luke and Georgie is smokin'. ;-) If you are familiar with Deeanne's work at all you know she always writes heroes that are oh so easy to fall in love with. Yes I realize this is fiction, therefore Luke is not real and yes I realize that the Verizon techs probably don't look like him but I might keep my eyes peeled anyway.
So enough about the hero you're probably wondering about the story itself, well I'm happy to say it's just as good. Deeanne has definitely brought the fun back with this book, although I have to say that if I never read about bird's again in a story it will be too soon. Georgie Gail the resident switchboard operator is as fanatical about her feathered friends as she is the telephone and it's definitely interesting to see Georgie and Luke go beak to beak...err head to head, whichever you prefer. The trademark chemistry that only Deeanne can create between hero and heroine is present from the very beginning. When you throw two hardheaded, stubborn people together it makes the story all that more delightful! Who knew that Christian fiction could be so much fun?
I highly recommend every single one of Deeanne Gist's novels to anyone who loves Christian fiction, Love on the Line is no exception. I'm wondering if there could be a sequel in the works because a certain character is just begging, begging, BEEEEEGGING for her story to be told! I hope so but if not I'm definitely satisfied with the way this one turned out and will be a Dee fan for life!
