5.0 out of 5 stars The Bridal Arrangement, October 25, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Bridal Arrangement (Silhouette Desire) (Paperback)

THIS BOOK IS PURE MAGIC !!! Not only is this a prime example of Cindy Gerard's great romantic writing, but this book will actually very likely change your life. The heroine is a sheltered young lady with a chronic medical condition that could affect any person's entire outlook on life, yet her courage and spirit and optimism and belief in life and people will fill the reader with heart bursting emotion and a belief in our fellow man. Something we can all use right now. It is a sure bet that you will never look at some of your friends and associates the same way again. I challenge you to read this book and not become a better person for it ... and to not believe that it is one of the most magical books you have ever enjoyed !!! Lee and Ellie will feel like special members of your family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfying, May 19, 2010

This review is from: Bridal Arrangement (Silhouette Desire) (Paperback)

Sheltered 19-year-old who suffers from epileptic seizures is excited about marrying her longtime love who was adopted by her recently-deceased parents before she was born & who agreed to marry her out of obligation to her dad. Both are attracted to each other but reticent about their fears about not being good enough for each other.

This Gerard book hits the right spot. The romance, sexual chemistry, love scenes, & characterization were all good. I read it within an hour. Heroine's struggles & attitude toward her epilepsy was heart-tugging. The change in Hero due to his awe at heroine's plight was endearing.

Highly recommended.

This review is from: Bridal Arrangement (Silhouette Desire) (Paperback)

Thirty three year old Lee Savage has come back to Montana, from Texas, to claim what was his -Shiloh Ranch and the previous owners daughter, Ellie.

Ellie Shiloh, at nineteen, is the most up-beat younster, fast becoming a woman, that any of us have ever heard of. She has developed an inner strength to deal with her medical problem but has remained so innocent that she took Lee's breath away.

He was a man destined not to give or share love with any woman, until Ellie taught him how to love. I guess sometimes it takes a little fear to teach a man what he could have and lose.

Most wonderful, magical attitude I have ever read in a main character that touches your heart.

Highly recommended - only the story was too short!
