I thoroughly enjoyed For The Roses- and went straight to the library to find these 3 smaller books. Their length did not bother me. But they did seem a little shallow. Out of the 3, One White Rose is the best to me. I did enjoy the story and would recommend others read it. The other 2 were silly and too unrealistic to me (especially One Red Rose).

I did love For the Roses so immediately picked this one up when it came out. It was too short, though to have any character or plot depth. It only took a little over an hour to read and was left with a feeling of "Okay, so what now?". Julie Garwood is a phenomenal author and this just wasn't a very good example of that. I'd recommend any of her other books though!

well,it's ok..but not as i expected it could be.. it's quite unexpected..the stories are not like the other books Julie Garwood use to write..

I have read all of Julie Garwood's books to date. And as expected, "One White Rose" pull's you into it's story. "The Clayborne Brides" series may be smaller in size, but their impact is still as grand as her larger novels. If you desire great reading, I highly recommend every book that Julie Garwood has written.

Her books are awsome! She is one of the top romance writter in my book I have read 17 of Julie Garwood's novels and she astounds me every time I read a new one. I suggest if you want to read this book start with the book "For the Roses" then go onto read "One Pink Rose", "One white Rose", and "One Red Rose" and then read "Come the Spring" These books are all about the Claybourne family and how they strived to survive raising an abandoned baby that they found in New York and turning her into a lady. After their little Mary Rose is grown up and Married to a highland Lawyer named Harrison each brother is tempted by women into settling down will the brothers run or face the destiny that MAMA Rose tricks them into.

This was my first Romance novel and since reading it i have been hooked on them. I have read every Julie Garwood book and was elated to hear that she had written Ransom in Feburary, but i have yet to read it. I recommend you read all Julies novels, but if i had to only pick a few, start with the Clayborne Series. The Gift and Prince Charming are also among my favorites.

This book is good but I want to see Cole married off to someone....after that wicked girl Elenore in For the Roses, i wouuld like to see him lose his heart to someone...less fussy. :)

I had a hard time getting into Garwood's first novella of the Clayborne Brides, and actually didn't read it until after devouring this and the third novella. This was a great story - one that could have been turned into a full-length novel. It's a great diversion for a short plane ride or bus trip. Of course, it's not as fulfilling as her full-length novels, but what do you expect? It's short. Pick this one up - I'd say it was the best of the three novellas.

I was thrilled with the latest edition to the Clayborne saga. Douglas was my favorite brother in the original book, so reading his love story was just great! The characters were colorful and very real. I was so glad that he finds just the right woman in this book. Defnitely a must read if you read the first book.

THE BOOK IS TOO SHORT TO GET INTO A STORY. NOT ENOUGH TIME FOR ROMANCE. MS. GARWOOD IS MY FAVORITE ROMANCE AUTHOR BUT THIS BOOK JUST FALLS SHORT!
