Selena Book:

Editorial Review:
The Right Woman... Inheriting her family's Vermont Inn gives down-on-her-luck Sabrina Monroe plenty of headaches and not enough money to buy pain relief. She was once taken in by her ex-fiance, a so-called businessman who wanted to "look after her interests," when all he cared about was gaining possession of her land. The Wrong Man... The very last thing Jason O'Neill, a business tycoon known as the Acqusition King is qualified to do is impersonate a blue collar worker when Sabrina mistakes him for a ridiculously upscale (and under-prepared) handyman. His mission is to talk Sabrina into selling her property to Colonial Golf Resorts. The case of mistaken identity allows the city charmer to think he can use his savvy business skills to negotiate a deal during his repairman stint. The Road to Sabrina's Destiny, lined with a mystical force.... Has magic saved the day when Sabrina receives a mystical gift? Will the guidance of a spiritual being help Sabrina and Jason with a second chance at love?

Sabrina's Destiny Reviews:
terrific whimsical paranormal romance
2006-05-23 - Sabrina Monroe inherits her family's Maple Inn in Vermont, but has found the work difficult but rewarding in spite of her financial concerns. Her customers are interesting bunch of eccentric characters, but Lucinda of "sole" repairing takes the halo with her magical ability to fix dead cars and her leaving behind a book that she insists is a loaner aptly named SABRINA'S DESTINY.

Colonial Golf-Resort businessman Jason O'Neill wants to buy Sabrina's property to build a resort there. However, upon arrival she thinks he is a handyman in spite of his Mustang and puts him to work when he fails to correct her mistake as he figures he can find a way to bring the price down. Though he is under tooled and not handy at least with repairs, they fall in love healing their hearts and souls, but each has issues with an emotion neither trusts. Her former fianc� Rodney used her to further his career and covets her inheritance while he was hurt badly by his one so called lasting relationship Chloe. He knows he must tell her the truth, but fears her reaction.

SABRINA'S DESTINY is a terrific whimsical paranormal romance starring two wonderful skeptics struggling not to fall in love in spite of their mutual destiny. The support cast is an eccentric delightful group especially Lucinda the angelic matchmaker. Readers will enjoy this fine romantic fantasy and hope Lucy has more destinies in store for Selena Robins' appreciative fans.

SABRINA'S DESTINY
AUTHOR: Selena Robins
Fans of the new sub-genre: "Chick Lit" will love this book. Romance, guardian angels and the battle of the sexes all make this, the perfect take along for the ladies.

Sabrina Monroe is an independent, stubborn and determined young woman who bears an unhealthy guilt over her parent's death. She is determined to repair and operate the family inn, but luck has not been on her side. Along comes the handsome, Jason O'Neill, "acquisition king", just what the doctor ordered. The impatient Sabrina mistakes him for the handyman and is soon enamored. Jason on the other hand has come to negotiate for his investment firm. They want to turn it into a golf resort and along with several unsavory towns people, they are determined to buy Maple Inn. Jason goes along with the mistaken identity and soon finds himself taken with Ms. Monroe. The plot thickens as the firm puts pressure on Jason to close the deal but his personal feelings are getting in the way. Sabrina is fighting her attraction to Jason, as the past comes back to haunt her. She has been hurt before and trust is not something that she gives willingly. Can these two opposites come to an agreement? Is romance possible or will the past get in the way? Who is this kooky pink haired character that keeps popping up?

Author, Selena Robins has captured the essence of the modern day romance in Sabrina's Destiny. The addition of the guardian angel Lucy, adds just enough fantasy to give the book a touch of mysticism without detracting from the plot. Interaction between the characters is believable and lifelike. Dialogue flows well from page to page.

Selena Robins lives in Ottawa, Ontario Canada with her husband David. She is presently working on a romantic comedy and intends to write a sequel to Sabrina's Destiny. Reviewer: Shirley Roe, Allbooks Reviews.
