Jill Mansell has become one of my favorite women’s
fiction authors. I look forward to each
of her new books. The worst part of her books is that they have to end. Mansell is a master at creating an entire
interwoven cast of characters I feel I know and care about by the end of each
novel.
In Don’t Want to Miss a Thing, Dexter Yates is
thrilled when his big sister Laura finally has the baby she’s always wanted,
Delphi. Dexter isn’t ready to settle
down yet with his high rolling job and life in London. After the tragic death of Laura, Dex finds
out he has been named baby Delphi’s guardian.
He moves to his cottage in a small village and gives up his former life to
learn how to be a father. Along the way
he meets many great new people, including his neighbor Molly. Molly is a cartoonist and genuinely nice
woman, but she does not want to be another notch on Dex’s bed post. As she struggles to find Mr. Right, she has
to wonder if he has not been next door all along.
Overall, I loved Don’t Want to Miss a Thing. I enjoyed the great characters, great story,
and great setting. I also loved how all
of the storylines were tied up at the end.
I look forward to whatever book Jill Mansell has next!
