Dreams Come True
David didn’t realize, but that is exactly what would happen to his life. The extravaganza was about to begin.
David had to thank Amanda for the way she had saved the children’s concert. Only that wasn’t his only intention. He knew nothing about her and had never met her before. The feelings and emotions that she had stirred up on first sight made David realize that love at first sight was real. It did exist. He couldn’t let her slip through his fingers. He had to do something.
Their late night coffee date turned a little sour. Amanda was not an easy target or a push over. Their meeting leads to their first date the following day. Amanda was drawn to David. She had also felt the emotions. They connected in every way possible. Neither David nor Amanda left things to chance. They were both direct and to the point. Their intentions were very clear. Their lives were about to change.

Refreshing!
Romance at its best! A thoroughly enjoyable read! Well done to this author for creating such a well written novel! The characters are so true to life. Yes I would recommend this book! Romance is definitely the right genre for Bridgitte Lesley to be writing. *I received a free copy for a fair and honest review*

Dreams Come True: This title is so apt! Dreams do come true!
I loved the flow of this book! From the very first page I found myself humming along. I was totally drawn in to this book. The banter is true to life. Some of the youngsters comments had me chuckling. The way that it is written around David and his daughter appealed to me. The genre of this book is a mix of literary fiction and contemporary romance. A mix that really makes it a jolly good read! I would recommend this book without hesitating. This one stood out from the crowd!

I really struggled with this book. From the beginning I had trouble figuring out what was going on - the book is almost all dialogue and it is often not clear who is talking. What I think happens is that David and Amanda meet, it's insta-love, he moves in, she buys him and his daughter lots of stuff and then they get married. All in a couple of weeks. There are many other characters who are also speaking, which makes it that much more confusing. I was really disappointed because the book seemed to be highly rated.

This is my kind of book!
The cover and title are what appealed to me and caught my attention. Three little words that are so true. Dreams Come True. Yes they definitely do. I enjoyed this book so much I sat and read not wanting to put it down. The style of this author flows and creates a comfortable read. Prepare yourself for a few chuckles along the way. Definitely worthy of the five stars!

I'm sorry but I hated it. How often can you say 'roared with laughter'? Very poor set up on the Kindle too where it was difficult to tell who said what, and there were definitely full stops in the middle of sentences, which was disconcerting. It needed more substance, I felt. Just not for me, and I usually enjoy romances.

This was definitely the worst book I've ever read or let's say attempted to read!!!! My biggest surprise is that it was actually published!

02/27/17 - This book needs an editor and HONEST beta reads. I got the sample and did not know who was who or who was talking to who. The verbiage was all over the place. A lot of information is not needed but the author needs to gather her thoughts and describe who the people are that are talking and whom they are talking to. This was too difficult to follow. The premise was good, but the book is $4.99. That is not cheap especially for an unknown author. For $4.99 I expect the author to have the book edited by a professional and not a friend.
This book needs a lot of work!

Excellent read! The style of this author is a little different and lovely to read. Bridgitte Lesley draws you in and has you wanting to read more and more. This particular book had a lovely story line. From the first page I was tapping my foot to the beat. The storyline is very original and the book left me with that feel good factor. I literally fell in love with the characters. I kept wondering what is next! A superb read that I honestly would recommend!

Only half way through and want to quit. There is absolutely nothing compelling about these characters yet.
The author has an annoying habit of having someone "chuckle" or "roar with laughter" in almost every paragraph. Once I noticed, I was so distracted I started counting the "chuckles" instead of reading the text.

Lesley does a great job of pulling you into the story, and while her style is different than most it is still a very interesting read that manages to hold your attention for the whole of the tale. I look forward to more from this author, and hope that she find success.

This book left me with a feeling of happiness. I was introduced to many different characters. One that I particularly disliked! But in the end I felt rather sorry for her and realized she isn’t all that bad. Pretty much the way real life is. That is what I really enjoyed about this book. The characters are very real. Throughout this book you will realize that Amanda really is the ‘do good’ kind of person. She is definitely not a softy and brings out the best in everyone. I immersed myself in this book and found the style of writing enjoyable. I would recommend this book as well as this author!

No es que lo odiara, pero es como si el autor intentara demasiado y no llegara a nada. Los elementos de la trama parecían estar desconectados y los personajes carecían de desarrollo. Hubo momentos en los que la historia parecía prometedora, pero se desvanecían rápidamente en medio de un mar de inconsistencias. La escritura en sí misma no era terrible, pero no fue suficiente para salvar una trama confusa y poco convincente. En general, me decepcionó y no lo volvería a leer

There was no development of the characters. It was difficult to understand who was talking. And everything was called "little." Little packet, little dish, little laugh. I finished it because it was so short, but a definitely dissatisfied based on previous reviews.

I had high expectations for this book because of its high rating, but boy was I disappointed. I found this book so poorly written that I found it virtually unreadable. The way it was written was confusing and I had such a hard time figuring what was going on. The story line from what I could pick up was all right, but nothing special. Overall I hated this book because I found it so hard to read and was not worth all the effort I put into it.
