Loved it!!,
By Real "Moi" (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Betrayed and Betrothed (Historical Romance) (Kindle Edition)
I was new at reading romance novels, I liked more action and suspense. This book did not fail at all! I liked how the author wrote the story, easily making the book flow and the characters believable! The story centers around a young woman named Abbie. Her Uncle urged her to marry his godson Bart Cavanagh, thinking that they make an excellent match. However, reluctant to this idea, Abbie wearily agrees. However, she finds Bart in a compromising situation with another woman, and decides to call of the engagement! Sometime after she goes to live with her Godmother in Bath. there she is surprised to see Bart there escorting his mother and sister for the season. He doesn't understand why she hates him so much, but continues to be intrigued with her. over the course of the book they get to know each other better and as the plot thickens, they learn that they can not survive each other, even if they don't know it!!!Overall, I loved this book. The romance was believable and the characters were so likeable. Abbie is a strong, intelligent, confident woman who knows what she wants and how to get it!! Bart, is handsome, charming, smart and a good guy underneath whatever rakish behaviour he shows. I recommend anyone read this book!

This review is from: Betrayed and Betrothed (Historical Romance) (Kindle Edition)
I can't say that I liked this book much. Too many things made it a dull read for me.I can see a man changing his ways in a 6 year time period, but Bart went from the playboy rogue type to Mr. Perfect Gentleman in the 6 years these two were apart after her refusal to marry him. He would've been a more interesting character if he kept some of his playboy ways. The heroine didn't hook me at all. She was just there. Nothing exciting, just there. I'm not real sure what Bart saw in her, but apparently he saw more than I did. But, then again, I guess two boring people attract each other. I love a story where two people build a friendship to find love in the end. This had a lot of potential for that, but it fell flat. They had a great friendship, but not much in the romance department. The fact that they fell in love at all was mostly shown through a couple of thoughts here and there, but as far as them doing anything about it well... you had to wait until the very end for that. This book didn't have any sex that I can remember. I don't mind that if the romance is played up well. This book lacked sorely in that department. I don't even think that there ever was any, until the very end anyway. This book was mainly about the so-called mystery, but even that fell flat to the point that I didn't care who was causing things to happen; nor did I care why they were doing it. I initially got this book, because I was intrigued by the plot of him betraying her years before. I was excited to see what Bart was going to do to get back in her good graces to make up for what he did. Unfortunately, it took a good half or more of the book for her to finally tell him why she refused to marry him. No real reason why she decided to not tell him until later in the book, she just did. As far as what he did to make it up to her, well, not a whole lot. He felt a little guilty, and did a wee little bit of begging in the end, but that's as far as I could see that it went. It didn't seem like he cared that much. As a matter of fact, I didn't see much of him caring for her at all. A couple of thoughts on both their parts, a little bit of touching and maybe a kiss or two is not enough for me to call this a romance.
