Just the Way You Are Beverly Barton 9781420135589 Books Reviews

I've never read anything by Barton before, but I figured that between the success of her writing and the intriguing synopsis, this one would be an easy winner. Not so at all.

The general plot sounded great. Woman is cheated on by her fiance, finds herself attracted to another man, and that other man turns out to be her fiance's brother. There's so much potential for drama and emotion, and I really wanted to see it all play out. Unfortunately, it started off very shaky, and when the two-dimensional characters all came into play, it just got worse.

Mary Beth is your typical good girl, and she's engaged to a selfish jerk. He cheats on her at their engagement party, and she finds a sympathetic stranger to talk to, someone she's instantly attracted to despite her broken heart and confusion about her future. Said stranger is Parr, brother to her awful fiance, but he's not bright enough to realize that the crying fiancee he's talking to at an engagement party is his brother's woman. And when he does? Doesn't matter. He's angry at his brother and wants to win the girl. Worse than those three are the parents, all of whom seem more interested in marrying off their mismatched, unhappy children than supporting them. Parr's mother actually asks him to intercede and help the broken couple patch things up, and Mary Beth is just enough of a doormat to try to look past her fiance's cheating.

I had high hopes for this one, but I realized rather quickly that I wasn't going to enjoy reading it. I'm used to some contrived drama and even a few cardboard cut-out characters in romances, but this was just too much. When the set-up is so thin, the characters so oblivious, and I end up not liking any of them enough to care what happens next, it's time to bail and find something else to read.

***FicCentral received this book from Kensington Books (via NetGalley) for free in exchange for an honest review.
How to write a review on a beloved author, whose final book was bad, just awful; I felt no connection to this book what’s so ever and I was hard pressed to even hear the author’s voice in this books. I have long been a fan of Beverly Barton’s…there are few of her books that I wouldn’t suggest to someone but this book lacked in so many ways. It felt like it had been finished just to be finished.
What I did like was the overall idea of the tale…..I also liked Mary Beth and Parr, I liked the sudden spark in the early pages of the book and I liked that each had stories to be told but I feel those stories were not told or not completely fleshed out so to speak. They met at Mary Beth’s engagement party to of all people Parr’s younger brother. Mary Beth had just discovered Bobby Joe’s indiscretion with a former flame and is heart broken when she meets Parr. Parr is the kind of guy who does right by his family no matter the costs to him. When the two meet it is a case of instant attraction for both. Yet when push comes to shove she forgives Bobby Joe.
Bobby Joe throughout the book continues to walk a thin line of almost cheating, and Mary Beth continues to forgive him. There is however several times when Parr and Mary Beth almost give into their attractions yet something keeps stopping them; namely Bobby Joe. The entire book becomes a do they or do they not push pull thing between Parr and Mary Beth. When Mary Beth finally realizes she is with the wrong brother the fizzle in my opinion has left building. That instant spark that drew me into the book was long gone and it simply fizzled out.
The book had potential, but the problem stems in that it lacked in story, it lacked in character connections, and it just did not feel like a romance. The heat that was there in the early stages of the book simply disappeared and the ending felt rushed. Nor did it feel like a Beverly Barton book......I know she passed a couple of years ago (on my birthday at that) and I have to assume someone else finished this book because it's simply not her voice. If you want a quick tame read then this might be the book for you, but if you’re looking for more…….I would actually skip over it.
3 ½ Stars.
By reading the reviews on this book, I seem to be the only one with the opinion that this book was FREAKING GREAT. Did we read the same book???
IMO This Book Was Addictive, I carried it around with me and every time I had a spare minute my nose was buried in it. Took about 10 hours to read it....
I Loved The Small Town Setting And Most Of All The Southern Charm. The book is well written with great characters and a smoking hot plot that includes a love triangle. Just The Way You Are IMO is a 5 star book and goes in my first read category.

Mary Beth Caine has always been a good girl and snags the good-looking younger Weston Brother, Bobby Joe. At their engagement party she finds him in a storage closet making "nice" with his ex-girlfriend. Mary Beth runs off and into the arms of a big, muscular stranger. He makes her feel passion for the first time in her life and she wants more.
Parr Weston is in town for his brothers' engagement party, he strays outside to avoid the family he has been taking care of since he was 12 years old. He hears a woman crying, takes her into his arms and decides he wants to make her "his"!
Mary Beth And Parr soon realize who the other is and know that the passion they felt earlier can go nowhere. But they can't stay away from each other and the lust and attraction is hard to fight.
Will the cheating Bobby Joe change his ways? Will Mary Beth And Parr find that whether it's right or wrong they shouldn't fight the falling in love vibe happening between them???
Excellent book
