Dedicated to the One I Love, by Beth Vogt, is a fun story about two well-known authors who are struggling at this point in their careers. Kylie Franklin, a popular romance novelist, lost her husband three years ago. She also lost her passion for writing. And she can’t seem to get it back.
Joe Edwards left the military to pursue writing military suspense. And he’s built his own successful career.
When their agents contrive to get them writing together, sparks fly between Kylie and Joe. And not always in a good way, but usually in a humorous fashion. This book has wonderful secondary characters who add depth and fun to the story. Dedicated to the One I Love is witty, a bit snarky, and a whole lot of fun.
I loved the way Vogt added depth to what could have been a shallow story by broaching the idea of working through grief. Second chances is another theme.
I found this story very satisfying. I laughed out loud in a few parts and teared up in others. Dedicated to the One I Love is the perfect blend of humor and depth. If you enjoy clean romance with authentic characters and unexpected twists, you’ll love this story.

About the author
Cute Read and second chance at love
Dedicated to the One I LoveBy Beth K. VogtKylie Franklin can no longer write. Since her husband's death, she can't conjure a line of romance and that is what she's known for. But if she can't have romance, neither will her characters. What's a writer to do? Her agent has an idea to restart her career.Joe Edwards knows military suspense but not romance, and romance is what his publisher is demanding he add to his newest offering. Ouch! And, of course, his agent has a solution. Unfortunately for him, the solution is a romance writer who can no longer write romance.Can two hurting people find a way to help each other while helping themselves at the same time? Kylie and Joe are about to find out. This is a sweet story, not to say everything in it is all sweet and happy. But rather it has moments throughout that make one smile.I found Joe and Kylie's first meeting to be interesting especially in light of their first meeting as their pen names. And, yes, there is a difference. It is also interesting how the two personas is seen as an issue to their friendship and even the possibility of something more. This book makes one think how would one handle having a public name versus a personal one. Would I present myself differently, especially in a public place?Overall a well written book with characters that one can connect to. I can say I found the story to be believable and the characters to be for the most part likeable, even when they were behaving in a most exasperating manner (which gives the story some tension). This would make an excellent summer read when you need to get away from your ordinary.I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.
