Home Matters by Julie N. Ford

According to her mother, Olivia Pembroke was born to be a star. But how is she supposed to be famous when she can’t even get a decent acting gig? Her lucky break comes when she lands an audition for a wildly popular home improvement show. Even though she has no design training and has never even held a power tool, she refuses to let that stop her. She’s confident that her destiny is finally within reach.

When her affections are torn between her heartthrob co-host and the irritating, yet somehow endearing lead contractor, does she continue to reach for the stars? Or does she design a new happily ever after? One that leads not to the fading lights of fame and fortune, but to a love that will burn forever.

Review

Such a cute romance novella. Olivia is a wannabe actress and lands a roll on a home improvement show (similar to Love it or List it on HGTV). The cohost, William, is the realtor (who thinks he is a god) and she is the designer. Sure she has a background in it, but she really isn’t the designer, but rather has to put up with a designer with a HUGE ego!  Pete is the hunky contractor that believe in her more than she believes in herself.  He also has dreams for his life and started a non-profit organization to help remodel homes for those with family members with disabilities but without the means to do the repairs themselves.

We really enjoyed the first book in this series and give it 5 paws up!

Author Julie N. Ford

Julie is a forty-something, dangerously close to becoming a fifty-something, graduate from San Diego State University with a BA in Political Science. In addition, she has a Masters in Social Work from the University of Alabama, which has only made her better able to recognize the unhealthy, codependent relationship she has with writing. Professionally, she has worked in teaching and as a marriage and family counselor. She is the author of four women’s fiction novels, including Count Down to Love, a 2011 Whitney Award finalist. When she’s not writing, she entertains delusions of being a master gardener, that is, when she’s not killing the unsuspecting plants in her yard with her good intentions. She lives outside of Nashville, Tennessee, with her husband, two daughters, a Betta named Bob, and a Scottish fold kitten, Ardweal.
