When I began reading this book I wasn't sure I was going to like it, but by the end of the book I was hooked!!!

Within the first few pages, Lucy discusses her power. I was a little taken aback when Lucy came right out with her powers...the first time she mentions her 'power' it is very matter of fact, without any details. But the author does clear up how her powers work and why later- the first time she came out with the 'powers' it was a little shocking and didn't think this story was going to make any sense. Although the story is based around Lucy's powers- this story is a true mix of paranormal, romance, mystery and action.

Once I understood the characters powers, I really loved the mix of paranormal, romance and mystery. Lucy has some great quirks, a weird family situation, and crazy friends. A lot happens in this one book!

The mystery in this story was great- I really hate it when I can predict the ending half way through the book, but this story kept me guessing until the end. The story has a lot of mini mysteries within it, which kept the book moving fast with so much happening.

I can see Webber writing many more stories about Lucy and coming up with really creative plots. Webber can take this series in so many directions- Lucy not only has power to deal with but her family are celebrities in the match making business- there is family drama, work drama, power drama (and the list goes on)- it will be interesting to see where she takes it!

I'm excited to have found a new fun series to read- without a doubt I will read this series! ( )

When I first got this book, I was thinking it was a very light paranormal romance type of book. I wasn't completely correct. There was humor in this book, mostly from the main character, Lucy. Her wit which often masked a deep sense of insecurity was very humorous. Add in her friends who often took that wit and strengthened it, the book became enjoyable on that level alone. Oh, and those worried about the insecurity angle... don't worry, it doesn't come off as whiny at all.

There was more than one romance, and several made possible by paranormal reasons and good old fashioned sense. I loved the fact that she freely admitted several times that she was a commitment phobic, but also had the sense to at least try to push beyond it. Plus, it doesn't hurt when the one that you are very interested in not only admits it several times that he is interested back, but she is also given clues within her visions. These specific visions may also prove to be signs that she is so much more powerful than she first thought. We might find that out in later books because this looks like it might become a series. That is a good thing.

What I was surprised me within the book was the mystery. Actually, I should say, mysteries. The main murder mystery that must be solved is but one. The mystery of what happened to a missing boy is another. The mystery of her intuition, the mystery of who to trust, the mystery of her closest friends lives and finding out more about them, as well as the mystery of how she is going to run her father's successful business without his specific ability are the other mysteries that need solved. Now while those smaller mysteries may seem like side stories that round out the character, they came across to me as things that needed to be solved in the way it was written.

This was a very enjoyable book and I was happy to have gotten it as an ARC. I would suggest this book if you like a fast read with a bit of sleuthing involved. Nothing heavy, but fun. I gave it 4 stars. ( )

Fast pace, very funny, sweet romance reminds me of Janet Evonavich.
I'm impatiently wait for the next one.
A must read ( )

I received this through the early reviewers program just recently.

It was a quick read and very entertaining. I liked the characters and found the story fun and fast paced. I finished it in a day and it was the perfect escape during a busy holiday season and brightened my disaster of a brithday weekend (the 20 inches of snow from the blizzard)

I look forward to more in the series as the preview of the next novel sounds to be just as good of a story. ( )

What a cute book this is! I was fairly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. I was able to finish it one day and I am looking forward to reading the next books in the Valentine series. I like how original the premise is for the book and the cupid twist for her family. I am glad that I won this book on the early reviewers from library thing. As many other reviewers have stated it was hard to put down once you start reading it.

With a bit of mystery and romance thrown with as well as some great family dynamics Truly Madly was a great read. ( )
