let's meet on platform 8 by carole matthews

genre: chick litLink

recap: {back cover} after knocking her down while rushing to catch the 6:07 from london, jamie duncan bandages teri carter's knee, buys her new stockings, seats her on the train with her foot in his lap and taxis her home from the station. who says chivalry is dead?

not only is jamie a romantic hero - tall, dark, with greeny-gold eyes and a scottish burr - he's witty, charming and eager to share their daily commute. suddenly teri's life is brief encounter meets wuthering heights. but then she discovers mr. right is also mr. married. jamie's not the type to cheat, and teri doesn't want him to... or does she? after dating mr. lazy, mr. greedy, mr. completely selfish and mr. downright perverted, can she renounce mr. perfect?

review: i was torn. i HATED the fact that teri knew he was married and purposely pursued him anyway. but i also thought pamela was a bitch. and yes, of course jamie was at fault too, but men are stupid and teri could have put a stop to it if she had tried. on the fence about this one. the thing i like about carole matthews books, though, is that they are always very emotional and very real. that's good.
