Stealing Adda

Writer's block, nibbled nails, plagiarism, oh my! And did I mention romance?

Life for Adda Sinclaire, New York Times best-selling author and historical romance writer extraordinaire, reads more like a country song than a breathless, bodice-bursting affair. For starters, she has no romance in her own life.

That might have something to do with the fact that her husband - correction, ex-husband - ran off with Stick Woman, whom everyone knew would never be more than a mid-list author anyway. To add insult to injury (and another verse to the country song), her ex not only took their dog but gave it to Stick Woman. If that isn't enough, Adda has come down with a horrible case of writer's block, finds herself gifted with a Bible that is determined to speak to her, and is the unwitting target of a romance cover model's misdirected advances.

Just when she catches her breath-and quite possibly the eye of a certain fabulously good-looking man (ahem...her new editor) - her arch-nemesis gives the pot one final stir.

Sarcastic sassy Heroine

I loved this book as an ebook and I've just finished listening to the narrated version. I couldn't stop listening! The narration was excellent and was just how I heard the characters in my head. Well except for the male characters, they were a little strange hearing a woman's voice deepening to portray it, but I soon got used to it.

I really enjoy Tamara Leigh's historical novels, and I also enjoyed this contemporary novel

Touching

I will admit, when I first started listening to this book I thought perhaps this is a book that is better if it is read on paper. But I was wrong. This book is charming. Adda is sassy, articulate, and whitty. I truly enjoyed getting to know her and watching her faith develop.

Best writer ever!

Her stories are poetry. You cannot help but sink into the heart ache and triumph of her characters. Laugh, cry and love without the graphic depictions. Tamarac tales will enrich your life. Don't miss any of her books you'll want audible and print copies to read over and over again.

Fun, honest, moving

A fun and entertaining book with honest and thoughtful characters. The plot was well developed and it was excellently read.

spectacular

Tamara Leigh took me for journey I really enjoyed. Being an author is something she understands but not something I know. her conflicts and conflict resolution felt good as well as her character development. I did not feel I needed to fix anything.
