This is the first book I have read by Ms. Kellogg and I truly enjoyed it.

This book sucked me in from the start! The characters are well written and believable. The storyline is touching, sexy, funny and a joy to read.

I can't wait to read further books by her. ( )

DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: Sometimes destiny has the last word (and laugh)

Fate thrust them together
Blackmail and deception tore them apart
Nineteen years later, their children’s love reunites them
Now, only truth and forgiveness can make them a family

Margie Bradford is picking up the pieces of her shattered life following her husband’s death. When her cousin encourages her to make a fresh start with her teenage daughter, unsuspecting Margie takes a reading specialist job in the small town of Redemption, PA. The last person she expects to encounter is Rocket Manion, the ex-NFL quarterback and Dr. Phil wannabe who broke her heart nineteen years ago. Strangling her meddling cousin is now at the top of Margie’s to-do list.

Divorced teacher and head football coach Jake Manion experiences an eerie sense of déjà vu when his son announces he’s gotten his girlfriend pregnant. The feeling simply grows stronger when Jake learns the girl’s mother is Maggie, the same woman on whom he’s wasted nearly two decades of bitterness.

While planning their kids’ wedding and helping them grow up too soon, Margie struggles with her renewed attraction to Jake. But no matter how irresistible his kisses are, she isn’t stupid enough to let him hurt her again. Or is she? ( )

I really liked this book :) It was a quick, easy read, but still really good. It had a lighthearted feel to it, even though it broached some difficult topics. The characters were really likable, and the romance was completely believable. I got it free on Amazon, so I didn't know what to think, but I was pleasantly surprised. ( )

A Little Bit of Déjà Vu (Return to Redemption, #1)

I found this book on amazon today free and started reading it right away. Let me say I was quite surprized how much I throughly enjoyed it.

Laurie Kellogg is a great author, the story was easy to read, has some great stories, it felt like I was reading two stories at once. It was very very good. Immediately I went and found more books written by Laurie and will definetly be reading more by Laurie Kellogg.

A Little Bit of Deja Vu is about long lost love, regrets, secreat and huge misunderstanding. And as a bonus there is a young romance involved as a side story.

There are some great heated scenes between Margie and Jake, and its a great romance novel.

I have rated it a 4 star rating and will be reading more books in the series.

I would recommend anyone who enjoys the romance genre to pick up A Little Bit of Deja Vu, I loved it and if your like me check out Laurie Kellogg's other novels.

forgot its free on amazon right now so go grab yourself a copy.
