Oh my goodness! This book!! This book is SO much more than a simple romance! This book truly has it all! With drugs, arrests, guardianship, getting clean, two families in disarray, and this is not even our main characters!

Normally I would get into my take on the synopsis of this book, but the blurb pretty much says it all. The characters are complex and quite frankly, wonderful. Erin self-worth seems to have taken a beating in the past, and doesn't think she is good enough to be "in David's league", and David doesn't believe that he is good enough to be with Erin. Add to that a crazy mother, and it's a three ringed circus!

The authors talent simply shines through, with her character development and writing! I tend to think that Harlequin/Mills and Boon romances tend to be over looks, but I urge people to pick up this little gems, because so many are missing out on such talent, Michelle Majors being one of them.

So, with all that being said, I will give Romancing the Wallflower 5 stars!
