5.0 out of 5 stars
Fabulous read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Marriage on the Rebound (Harlequin Presents, No 1973) (Paperback)
Reid has created a hero worth falling in love with and a heroine who is his perfect complement. Shaan is left at the altar by her handsome groom, Piers, who marries another woman. Piers' brooding brother, Rafe, steps in and convinces the devastated bride to marry him instead. Shaan is determined not to see the truth---that Rafe loves her deeply---because she is in a distraught haze over Piers' desertion and over her belief that Rafe is really in love with the woman Piers has married. Rafe uses whatever means necessary---bullying, coddling, spoiling---to restore Shaan's self-esteem and force her out of her despondency. The newspapers add to Shaan's unhappiness by reporting that the wealthy brothers have switched brides, which, coupled with other twists and turns, leads to a final confrontation involving the three major characters. Why did Piers leave? Does he love Shaan? Does Shaan love Rafe or will her heart forever belong to Piers? What is the relationship between Piers' wife and Rafe? What really caused all of these problems to begin with? This book keeps you turning page after page to discover the answers. The plot is delicious, the characters are very well-drawn and the book is incredibly satisfying. I dispose of most Harlequin books right after I read them. This one is a keeper. Buy it!

Obnoxious s.o.b. hero, slow heroine.,

This review is from: Marriage on the Rebound (Harlequin Presents, No 1973) (Paperback)
Rafe Danvers had disliked Shaan Saketa from the first moment he met her, on the arm of Piers Dancers, his brother. When Piers jults Shaan hours before their wedding, Rafe takes over, bullying a shocked Shaan into marriage to him. As the shock wears off, Shaan begins to feel love for Rafe. Then she overhears a damning phone conversation that implies that Rafe is in love with his brother's new wife and that he has been stuck with the "leftovers".A bit over the top as Rafe takes ruthless advantage of Shaan's shock to get his own way. Shaan lacks maturity and Rafe is obsessive. The book harks back to the early days of Harlequin Presents when the heroes could and did do whatever they wanted in the name of love, the heroine's feelings bedamned.

Gripping saga,
By "booksronni" (Richmond, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Marriage on the Rebound (Harlequin Presents, No 1973) (Paperback)
The very first pages of this novel are emotionally gripping. The heroine is in shock at first and it takes some effort for the chivalrous brother of the absent groom to get some response. The storyline is interesting and well-thought out. Michelle Reid gives her characters very intense and identifiable emotions. I enjoyed this book very much.
