Immerse In Bogus Bride (Harlequin Historicals #361) Prepared By Emily French Delivered In Digital Edition
vueltas sobre el mismo asunto, I was more than halfway through this when I set it aside formonths, so I am officially giving up on it, An American colonizer writes to a family in his old village to send his old friend as his bride, The wrong sister sets sail, and of course he comes to appreciate her after he marries her, The vivid, colorful scenery of the old Northeast isn't enough to make me finish the book, He married the wrong sister, . .
Ten years after he left England, Sam Jardine wrote home for a bride, but instead of the angelic beauty he remembered, the fiery Caitlin Parr had arrived on America's shores.
A decade of silent infatuation had finally paid off, Caitlin knew she wasn't Sam's first choice, but she vowed that he would never regret making her his wife, and the fire that sparked between them only proved that her rightful place was by his side.
Ok historical romance read. Love this theme but, .
Just couldn't get into the story, skimmed through most of the book! Didn't really care what happened to the characters, Caitlin ParrJardine is one hell of a woman! As Samuel described her, a doctor, a passionate lover and one hell of an enemy! I so love the story all in all.
With all its twist and turns, you sure would keep the pages turning, After waitingyears to hear from the man she loved, Caitlin Parr was eager to follow Samuel Jardine to America regardless of the fact that he mistakenly wrote her sisters name, Caitryn on the personal letter that accompanied the marriage proposal.
MaineWaiting on the docks for his soon to be bride, Sam was momentarily shocked to find that the wrong sister had accepted his offer, Making the best of the situation and not letting on that he had made a mistake, the marriage went forward, then he took his new wife to the lumbering camp.
The characters in this story where good, the story was good, the description of Maines forest and timber business was good, some of the writing was confusing though.
Very repetitive on some points while other things seemed to get lost in the descriptions, This book was apparently named before it was written, while once or twice calling Caitlin a Bogus Bride would have been ok, it didnt stop at that.
Also, Bogus didnt seem to fit, it was a misunderstanding, a mistake, and they made a few bad choices, but I would not consider it fake, the feelings were real for both of them, not intentionally deceitful.
A decent historical romance, a few minor writing style quirks to overlook, but a good story in general, This book is terribly written, The writing skips, it tangents and is confusing, The whole premise often spins off the difference between two sisters, their names being 'Caitryn' amp 'Caitlin,' yet the book immediately drops Caitryn, which would have been great if that's all that remains strangely ambiguous.
These main characters have a huge backstory that the author tries to integrate into the current actionbut for this novel, that flashback technique does not work.
While describing the past, the current actions get put on the backburner, and her synonyms get really strange, oftentimes I found myself going back to reread sections because of its misleading syntax.
The characters seem like an afterthought, and the story's concept is really the only thing the author's given this book, The premise is why I picked it up, and the premise is why I've decided to put it back down, I made it to chapter four before I called it a day, When a plot is muddled that badly by poorly written detailsyou're better off with another novel,
