Ms Arkins has
created wonderful cast of characters. Mike is
the perfect hero. He’s kind, generous, funny and
sexy. Liv, despite her privilege upbringing is
sweet. Unlike some other heiress characters from
other books, I really liked Liv. Instead of
being shallow and as if everyone was beneath
her, she was more naïve about how the others may
live...
...Add in a mastiff, an abandoned ferret, and a
neighbor trying to break various records and you
have a fun book that is tough to put down. I’m
looking forward to more books by Ms Arkins.

"One Love
for Liv" is the kind of book that
you never tire of reading and re-reading. This
fast-paced and witty read actually made me laugh
‘til I cried in several parts. I can guarantee
that I can’t even think about pizzas without my
eyes misting over after I read the story. Ms.
Arkins’ fresh and interesting writing style will
attract fans of offbeat romantic romps. "One
Love for Liv" can easily become your
much needed break from life's harried pace. Ms.
Arkins is definitely an author to look out for!

Marianne Arkins has done a super
job of telling a story of love among the rich and not-so-rich. "One
Love for Liv" is fun and fast-moving. It isn’t without its share of
bumps for the lovers but it is very entertaining. The story of
opposites attracting could be dull but with the quirky character
traits these characters have, not to mention their unusual pets, it
is anything but boring. I agreed with Liv’s choice in the end even
though I’m not sure I would have taken the same path to finding
love. I’m not sure if the lovers will stay together but I suppose
that may be the meat of the sequel if there is one! I hope there is,
since Ms. Arkins’ writing is clear and concise and makes for very
easy reading. "One Love for Liv" is a satisfying read! I loved it!

"One Love For
Liv" was an enjoyable romance of a heroine completely out of her
element, and a hero who is, at heart, a hero. Liv has absolutely no
concept of how to perform the job assignments she received from
Mike, so she has ingenious alternatives - primarily to have others
do it for her. I particularly loved when she went grocery
shopping. Mike knows that it is risky to trust a stranger, but he
can't not help someone in need. It is just an innate reaction, just
as he kept the ferret that was left in his apartment, and brings
leftovers for the local stray dog. I simply adored Mike.

The plot is a
page-turning saga of doubt and love and disappointment and
discovery. I truly did not want to stop reading. I couldn't wait to
see what whacky chances Liv would take or what delightfully peculiar
character might be introduced on the next page. There were plenty of
odd characters in the story, but none were gratuitous; Each one
played a part in Liv's transformation - even the terrifying ferret
and the attentive, slobbery bull mastiff....just read, you'll find
"One Love For Liv" a very worthwhile book.
