Surrogate Wife (Harlequin Historical) [Mass Market Paperback]

Barbara Leigh (Author)

Book Description

Series: Harlequin Historical | Publication Date: August 1, 1999

Meagan Reilly Was Innocent!

Yet she was condemned to a life of servitude for a crime she did not commit. And though many would call her punishment light, they could not imagine the suffering of each day spent with a man whose forbidden touch would bring the very devil to pay.

Josh Daniels had no peace. Although the law had found Meagan Reilly guilty of murdering his wife, he could not believe that justice had been done. For the kind and courageous woman didn't seem capable of taking anyone's life, only of miraculously turning his around for the better!

4.0 out of 5 stars New twist to romance, December 8, 1999

This review is from: Surrogate Wife (Harlequin Historical) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book was about a woman who was wrongly accused of murder and sentenced to to serve the rest of her life with the husband of the wife which she was suposed to have murdered, and if the two were to fall in love she would be sentenced to death. Well I know you can see where the story leads but the way they went through the hard ships of tring to get along. Meagan knowing she was innocent and Josh wishing and hoping she wasn't guilty. Trouble from the start, love in the end. Truly a must read.

This review is from: Surrogate Wife (Harlequin Historical) (Mass Market Paperback)

I really enjoyed this story. I mean we all know how it is going to end, but the way in which they are forced to deal with each other is very unique. I have not read this particular plot before. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out how it ends, but a good easy read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing to pull me in to want to keep reading., April 11, 2011

This review is from: Surrogate Wife (Harlequin Historical) (Mass Market Paperback)

The events in the story are so far fetched and seem to occur just to keep the story dragging on. The romance seems a little immaturely written. The book does not flow very well (very choppy). I had a hard time finishing it.
