4.0 out of 5 stars One of the best love stories I have ever read., January 24, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: One Bridegroom Required (Harlequin Presents, No. 2011) (Paperback)

Holly Lovelace wants what all women want - independence and fulfullment. The author sets the story in a wedding dress shop. Luke Goodwin, her landlord can't resist his feelings towards her, however hard he tries, even though she is everything he hates in a woman. The author combines an heirloom wedding dress, her own fractured history and her own wishes for a stable and loving relationship to create a blistering story. The wedding dress is the foundation of this trilogy and provides the story for three very different heroines. In this first part of the trilogy, any woman who has had a relationship with a man who is emotionally sealed-up will recognise the agonising struggle Holly has in helping him overcome his prejudices against women, and herself in particular. I can't wait for the next two - please bring them out soon.

3.0 out of 5 stars problems with the hero, December 1, 2010

This review is from: One Bridegroom Required! (Hardcover)

Bridal-dress designer is attracted to her new landlord. She knows he returns her attraction but is resisting it for reasons she doesn't understand. Hero doesn't tell heroine that he has a fiancee whom he's marrying for convenience than love & has been staying away from.. When heroine finds out about his fiancee, she doesn't dispel his fiancee's assumptions that she & Hero slept together when she stayed at his house for 2 weeks. As a result, his fiancee leaves him. Hero blames heroine for what happened & finally gives in to their sexual attraction but the consequences are not what he expected.

I have mixed reviews about this Kendrick book. Overall it was a good, fast-paced,& emotionally-involving read as typical of her books. I liked heroine's independence & comfort with who she is. I had some problem with the Hero, on the other hand. Although Hero had his issues about mistrusting women, it was not a good enough excuse for why he kept his engaged status a secret from heroine. And he blames her for causing his fiancee to leave him even though it was primarily his fault. I didn't like how Kendrick resolved his mistrust of heroine & judging her as promiscuous. If she wasn't a virgin when they had sex, I don't think Hero would've treated heroine as well nor apologized for the offensive things he said to her while they were having sex. Kendrick also took the easy way out re: taking the fiancee out of the picture. The ending was too abrupt & didn't resolve the Hero's underlying problems with heroine well enough.

Recommended with limitations.
