Here s something to think about How come you never see a headline like Psychic Wins Lottery Jay LenoBoth Violet McGinn and Drew Watson would agree with Jay Leno They come into contact, and share this opinion, when Violet s mother, Moombeam, has an accident Moonbeam offers psychic services in a studio next to Drew s bar But not just a bar, but a hot spot featuring exotic male dancers on the weekend.Moonbeam, believing her daughter has the gift, blackmails Violet she ll consider modern medicine fo [...]

Much better effort than 1st book by author This had a workable plot quirky characters that have basis in reality Spoiler Alert Most of us have mother issues so it was fun to read about the heroine s growth in trying to resolve in a positive way her differs sames with her view of her mom In this book mom does know best.Liked the paranormal twists Never have heard glam rock called butt rock but I was into new wave, punk country at the time.

What a cute read I loved the 80 s music and how it went along to make a story that made me laugh Great characters.

I wantz its now

Very funny character interactions and well written However, the story is predictable and romance between the characters is annoying I m not a fan of romance where heroine strings along other guys for the majority of the book 80% for this book The majority of the romance in this book is I want you but I can t have you, I want you but you re not right for me, I want you but you re not that person, I want you but you re dangerous and blah blah blah Repeat that for 80% of the book, and I m fucking b [...]

Tasty Bite of Brain CandyViolet McGinn has a.icated relationship with her mother, a self proclaimed psychic who calls herself Moonbeam and gives psychic readings out of her shop in Portland, Oregon And yes, that s a large reason why Violet is an accountant In Portland, Maine About as far away as she could get from her loopy mother in both career and location Violet doesn t believe in psychics She believes in statistics She believes in facts She believes in all things normal.Be that as it may, wh [...]

I ve been looking forward to Tawna Fenske s second book since I read her debut, Making Waves, a number of months ago She sold me on that book and any future works with her humor and her lovable and quirky characters Is the sequel as good as the original, so to speak Almost, but not quite Even after all these months I still remember Alex and Juli from Making Waves, their unique and hilarious first meeting, their high sea adventures, their steamy love scenes, and the unusual use of that black thon [...]

Gahhhh I read this a while ago and don t know why I haven t given it 5 stars it is Tawna Fenske after all

EnjoyableThis was an enjoyable read The characters were funny and their predicaments were funny I laughed out loud several times.

I like relationship character focused romances, and Believe It or Not does focus on our two leading characters Unfortunately I just had a hard time with it, I think it was personal preference than anything Some author s humor works for me and some don t This author had some funny and amusing moments but often then not I was going Wha Really I mean how do you confuse B and E with B D especially that conversation And I have a headache This book had quirky characters, awkward situations, some rat [...]

Freaking Hilarious Okay the likelihood of any of this is fairly low, but sometimes that really doesn t matter because you re laughing so hard that you can t help but enjoy a ridiculous story for what it is.

This book manages to be an entire romantic comedy starring John Cusack, with a ton of music references, a touch of magical realism, and a heavy dose of swoon thrown in for good measure I first discovered Tawna on Twitter because she shares an agent with Kiersten White PARANORMALCY , and then I found her daily blog I knew that if Tawna was half as funny and charming in her books as she is on Don t Pet Me, I m Writing where she routinely makes me snort completely unladylike and spit drink onto my [...]

At First Sight Accountant Violet never wanted anything to do with her mother Moonbeam s psychic business But when Moonbeam suffers a fall, and only agrees to have surgery when Violet promises to look after the business and keep Moonbeam s appointments, Violet is stuck playing the psychic and listening to 80 s glam rock, courtesy of the bar next door and it s owner Drew Drew knows his business is a little unusual much as he likes to say his bar is just like any other, the place is most well known [...]

Rating BAfter enjoying Ms Fenske s Making Waves, I was happy to see she had another romantic comedy coming out This time our heroine is a serious accountant with possible psychic abilities and the hero owns a strip club bar featuring male strippers two nights a week You would think they wouldn t have anything in common but Ms Fenske brings these two together and shows us how much they really do.Violet heads back to Portland, Oregon to help her mom, Moonbeam while she recuperates from surgery Vio [...]

A review for The Romance Reviews.Tawna Fenske has a hit on her hands with her latest book, BELIEVE IT OR NOT There wasn t anything I didn t love about this quirky, humorous and very unique novel, and I recommend it to all contemporary romance fansLIEVE IT OR NOT tells the story of Violet, an accountant whose main goal in life is to have a normal, if not boring, existence Why Because she grew up with a mother who wants to be called Moonbeam and runs a psychic consultant shop in Portland, Oregon S [...]

Review first published at Reader, I created him.This romantic comedy has a delightful romance but is too light on the funny.When Violet McGinn s mother needs surgery, Violet flies across the country to help her out and is roped into temporarily taking over her mother s business.Violet s mother is a psychic.Violet is not.Fortunately, her mother s clients seem to broadcast their fears and insecurities, and she can usually figure out how to use pop psychology to help them out Unfortunately, some of [...]

since this is a Friday, I m going to give you the goods in true Friday Five Fashion say that five times fast And so, I give you Five Reasons To Fall For BELIEVE IT OR NOTThe Characters Of course you have your MC, Violet McGinn, and her LI love interest Drew Watson sigh, swoon Drew sighs again I love him and kind of wish he was reald working next door to me I m just saying But, in some cases, it was the side characters who stole the show for me, even those who only showed up for a scene or two Mo [...]

Originally posted at longandshortreviews.cWhat do you believe in In Tawna Fenske s quirky novel Believe it or Not, the serious, down to earth accountant Violet, and the unconventional bar owner Drew, come to realize the answer is not as simple as it seems.This is a fun book with underlying humor coloring the adventures of two mismatched characters Violet wants normal and predictable Drew is not your average guy Sexy Yes Handsome and fun Yes Predictable Far from it He has male strippers perform a [...]

What a fun book Violet came home to Portland to help her mom who has ended up in the hospital Mom is a somewhat flaky psychic who provided Violet with an unconventional childhood Violet countered that upbringing by becoming a straitlaced accountant and moving across the country All she wants is a normal life with a normal husband, etc Now, mom has or less blackmailed Violet into running the psychic business until mom can get back to it Violet doesn t even believe in psychics, so she has no idea [...]

When Violet s mom winds up in the hospital, she returns home to take over her psychic shop Little did she know that the owner of the strip club bar next door would be so hot Unfortunately, he REALLY does not fit the normal, boring cough cough image she s looking for Violet does not fit his bimbo airhead standards Can they get over their differences for true love My first thought of this novel was wow, never thought I d read a romance about a straight guy owning a bar that employs male strippers [...]

2.7 3.2 Stars Public Library 7 20 15 Frisky Business was my first book by this author and I liked it so much I gave this one a shot even though it didn t sound that interesting While it wasn t terrible I didn t care for it that much Parts were funny especially when Violet and Drew first met but their interactions began to wear on me Violet s constant lying and guilt also got old quick While I found the other book funny without being over the top silly I can t say the same for this one I think my [...]

I believe in Tawna Fenske s BELIEVE IT OR NOT.When Violet McGinn s psychic mother lands in the hospital, Violet must take over her business, but all she would rather do is her safe job in accounting Psychic abilities or not, Violet didn t count on her mother s shop s neighbor, Drew Watson, and she to have such a connection from their first meeting As a bar owner, Drew plays the right song at the right time for Violet to make her psychic predictions Violet must find a way to embrace the craziness [...]

Violet has come home to help her mother, Moonbeam, after she falls down the steps of her new age shop and needs surgery Her mother is also a noted psychic and Violet has grown up to be as opposite of a psychic as she can an accountant When it becomes obvious that Moonbeam will be in rehab for a while Violet takes over the business One of the first people she meets is Drew, the owner of a bar male strip club next door He thinks Moonbeams is nuts and is pretty skeptical about Violet even though he [...]

I d intended to buy this late last night but wait to read it Instead I read the excerpt and stayed up until 3 a.m reading it This book was that elusive and wonderful unputdownable experience.Tawna s writing style reminds me of one of my other favorite and unputdownable authors Jennifer Crusie They both have the same hilarious moments which actually make me bark out a laugh which is quickly followed by embarrassed shame and the hope that no one heard me Ideally this book should be enjoyed like an [...]

Violet McGinn has moved away to the other side of the country and become an accountant, to be far away from what her psychic mother is Unfortunately, when her mother falls and has to have surgery, Violet must take over her business Drew Watson, the owner of the bar, which is a neighbor to Violet s mother s shop, makes his scepticism of psychics known These two are attracted to each other, but fight it Humor is an individual taste, and while BELIEVE IT OR NOT has some amusing moments many scenes [...]

Reviewed at Library of LightsReview date 30 March 2012Review link mykindaland p 469I have mixed feelings about this book, Believe It or Not by Tawna Fenske The story is unique and one of a kind, fun to read, sexy and all that, but I find it rather hard to follow in the beginning There are too many characters involved and the story was rather slow for me I couldn t really feel the chemistry between the hero and the heroin, and I couldn t really make a connection of one character with another.I m [...]

Looking at the front cover of the book, I was expecting your every day romance I was expecting the normal formula Thankfully, that s not what I ended up with The characters are fresh and exciting The plot has been done before, but definitely not in this manner It s a quick, easy read that you won t want to put down This is not your normal romance It s witty and charming with lots of twists and turns that will have you spitting tea out of your nose from laughing so hard Just when you think you kn [...]

charlotteswebofbooks.Believe it or Not was just okay I actually purchased Fenske s first book, Making Waves, based solely on her participation on one of my favorite blogs, The Debutante Ball But,I will say that I have not read it yet So when I had the opportunity to read an ARC of her second book, I jumped at the chance Believe it or Not is a fast read, but the characters did not really strike a chord with me At all The F word is used liberally, which doesn t bother me much, but I know that it b [...]

This book is lots of fun, with witty double entendre dialogue, laugh out loud situations, and some steamy sex scenes What s not to love Doesn t matter if you believe in psychics or not I predict you re gonna love this book.

Cute, just like Fenske s last book It took a while to get into the quirks of the book, as Fenkse creates some marginally unbelievable characters, and the dialogue was a little cheesy in the beginning, but as the book progressed, I got into it I will say that I found the romance a little unconvincing, given that view spoiler Violet and Drew didn t have their omg ilu moment until 10 pages before the book ended Obviously the reader knew they were in love, but they both fought it right up until the [...]

Believe It or Notwas fun, amusing, and entertaining I liked how the story included Portland culture I look forward to reading by Tawna Fenske.

This was a book with fun, quirky characters with completely different professions, and some laugh out loud moments.I loved how Drew was so comfortable with who he was and what he did for a living Violet was also comfortable with who she was, but the her willingness to be a fake and dishonest psychic was a big turn off.The connection between the psychic readings and the music was a bit too far fetched for me.Something was missing for me and I can t pinpoint what it is It could have been character [...]

Tawna Fenske is a new to me author I won this book in a sweepstakes and I am glad I did As a Mother who often embarrassed her offspring I can entirely relate to this story Violet reacted to being raised by her mother aka Moonbeam the psychic by leaving Portland, OR and moving to Portland, ME and becoming an accountant More than anything she wants to be normal When Moonbeam has an accident Violet has to come home and help out While taking care of Mom s business she encounters Drew the owner of th [...]

Fun and sexy romance Great light reading I started reading while I was waiting for some work to be done on my car and it made the long wait a lot easier.
