She's got loads of talent, a massive crush--and no confidence. Now she just needs a plan. . .
Interior designer Emmie Brewster is having one of those. . .decades. Her overbearing boss believes she's only qualified to make coffee. Her boyfriend treats her like a booty call. And her widowed father is dating again--more successfully than she is. Then Emmie lands a client who happens to be the hottest man she's ever encountered. Too bad Graham Cooper is already involved with the kind of woman Emmie longs to be. If only she had the courage. . .
Emmie's always been content to dream--about having her own business, her own Mr. Right--but something about Graham makes her want to take action. Maybe it's time she used her talent for creating beauty and order on herself. She has Graham's admiration--does she dare go for more? With a little encouragement from her friends, and a lot of newfound motivation, Emmie's ready to try. . .

I finished this book last night and I have to say, I enjoyed it. Emmie Brewster was a regular woman with a life that was fine but kind of monotonous, and after meeting the captivating Graham (and reuniting with the still-frustratingly all-together former high school classmate Juliet) she starts to shake things up a bit.I loved the humorous tone of the book; that helped to make it a much easier and more enjoyable read. One thing that intrigued me was just how 'every day' Emmie was...she was attractive, but not glamorous...she was in a field she loved, even though she didn't get to utilize her talents much at first thanks to her restricting and domineering boss...she had a selfish boyfriend in Kyle that she put up with far longer than she should have...all of these are things I can relate to. Relatable characters keep me more engaged. And Lord knows I've spent my share of time lusting after someone who I deemed somewhat out of my league, or who was already snagged by someone else. When 'New Emmie' (as she often referred to herself) took the initiative with Graham, I internally cheered. When she pushed him away after one too many calls from his former flame, I cringed, even though I got the reasoning behind it. (Really, I thought the link between Juliet and Graham was going to be some kind of red herring, but it turned out not to be).
Another element of the book I enjoyed was Emmie's friendship with Trish and later, Avery; and her rebuilding of her relationship with her father, Bob, after her mother (and buffer) passing away.
Overall, it was a good read. I look forward to reading more from Ms. Denker.

By Design edition by Jayne Denker Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
It was well written. I got this as a free download. The story is clean. and that was refreshing to me.
Jayne Denker is a fantastic writer and I adore her characters. The dialogue is my favorite part of her books. She's hilarious!
Firstly I have to say that this author is a fellow writer who is with my literary agency, however, that did not taint my view on this book -- either in a good or bad way.
I loved this right from the first chapter -- because Emmie is an every-girl. She acts and says things just as I would, and is thoroughly beleiveable, althought I did want to kick her butt a few times for letting herself being walked over. In saying that, I loved her, and laughed my way through the book. Jayne has a great sense of flow, knowing just how to hook in a reader, and I have to say that I'd love just a tad of her talent.
Great romance, great book!
I can tell you that my review is just gonna be what it is..This book was just OK for me. There really wasn't any spark for me to get excited about in this book. Quite frankly it took me a long time to grasp it. But it could just be me.
The author in my opinion wrote an OK book it was not terrific. Emmie and Grahams story turned out to be everyone's story but theirs. The story line between the two when it actually was there was quite enjoyable but other than that it didn't work for this reader I would have liked to read more about Emmie and Graham and not everyone else.
So if your looking for a book that has a twitch of something pick up this book. But if your looking for a romance between Emmie and Graham don't get this book. The synopsis is actually better than the book. Sorry but that again is just my opinion.
It for me just took to long for the characters to get where they should have been.
Enjoy..
I enjoyed reading this book. The characters were likable and I laughed out loud many times. My only issue was how it read on the kindle - there weren't separations within chapters which made it confusing.
While the story behind this book was exactly what you would expect from a romance novel, the writing was really great! I thought the dialogue between the characters was hilarious and reminded me of the way my friends and I talk and interact with each other. If you want a quick, fun read, give this one a try!
I was not too thrilled with the first few chapters, because the main character was so childish, even ridiculously whiney. I didn't like her at all. However, after that, the story picked up, she matured, and I enjoyed the way the plot moved along. This was written with humor and a light romantic style, not like a steamy Harlequin romance. This is a much nicer story than those. Even the design aspects were interesting. Sometimes the characters were too juvenile for words, not believable thirty-somethings, but in all, this is a nice diversion; a light, quick read.
