5 Lady Kincaid StarsThe Bride is the first book I have read from Julie Garwood and I loved it I loved the set up, the plot, and love Jamie and Alec I love me some sexy Scottish highland romances and this one was great From the start Alec shined He was so sexy, cocky and 100% bad ass Scottish warrior But what I loved most about Alec was he had a tender side Don t get me wrong though Alec could be damn ruthless when he needed Jamie had me laughing She was the perfect blend of sassy, brave, sweet, [...]

I m not feeling very literate today, so I am going to compose this review around a list of reasons why I loved this book Reasons Why I Loved The Bride by Julie Garwood1 Jamie is a great heroine Okay, she might have some Mary Sue ness going on, although I hate using that term She is really gorgeous, very nice, oh so sweet, great at pretty much everything, giving, and self sacrificing However, she s totally loveable For me, that s the opposite of a Mary Sue, because Mary Sues are characters that t [...]

Huge 5 StarsI loved this book It s one of those feel good stories that leaves you smiling for days If I was to sum up this book with one word, delightful comes to mind I honestly can t think of a better word to describe the experience I had while reading it Jamie has become one of my all time favorite heroines Julie Garwood has a way of writing heroines that are strong willed without becoming annoying hard to do in my opinion Jamie s one of the most endearing character I ve read She s impossible [...]

15% And here we goes for the fastest DNF of 2016 what do you mean I m not supposed to celebrate Before buying an historical book, go check the period of time of the story, would you Truth is, I started hyperventilating when I saw that little England, 1102 written at the top of chapter one Why, you ask Because there s no hiding behind the fact that these times weren t women rights friendly and that I, for one, don t enjoy reading about girls being sold to some OMG a bulky highlander jerkface who [...]

Highlander romances never really appealed to me, well, because I like my men in pants The whole kilt thing just doesn t do it for me, but I have to put that aside, or I d miss out on a lot of great gems like The Bride And the great thing about books, is that I can just imagine he has pants on or not.These highlander stories are always brutes whisking women away willingly or unwillingly I might prefer the latter to their Scottish castle, and I can pretend I m a damsel in distress with the attenti [...]

I d rate this 3.75 stars or whatever a B minus rating would convert to.I wanted to love this book because it s a favorite for so many readers, but couldn t quite get there There were several parts that made me smile, like when the heroine wears black to her wedding, and when she dumps water on the soldiers who are making fun of English women And the ending was great, with the jewels I won t say for spoiler purposes My main problem connecting with the book lies with the heroine, who is straight [...]

The Bride audio was everything I was hoping for and Julie Garwood is the reason I love reading romance I started reading her books at the tender age of 16h After my first, I was addicted and used all my pocket money to buy Of course, I eventually exhausted the bookstore s supply so then I was forced to re read them over and over and over again I dreamed of highland heroes who were rough and even a wee bit scary These scary men were ferocious in the start but then we see them change A kind gest [...]

Instagram Twitter Facebook PinterestIt s always nerve wracking to read a romance that s considered by many to be a classic and is beloved by many especially when you re an individual whose literary tastes often go against the grain But THE BRIDE went on sale for Kindle and I bought it, and then it was voted as our December book of the month in my romance book club, so it seemed like I was destined to read it.I haven t read a lot of Scottish romances The only one I ve read is the one everyone has [...]

It really sucked to be a woman in the 1100 s Yes, it was much better in the 1200 s Oh wait, never mind Well, it s better now We can t be sold into marriage or bartered by our fathers And, for some reason the king of England was playing Cupid and forcing couples into marriage That is what happened here A loser guy doesn t pay his taxes and as his punishment he has to give two of his daughters to some Scottish men to marry.Hmmm, and this punishes the man how I mean, daughters were chattel The way [...]

Now as you have noticed, I have been reading many historical romance novels lately and some of my favorite types of historical romance novels have to deal with Highlanders since the men in those novels are ultra sexy Well, Julie Garwood s The Bride, is definitely no exception and it was the first book that I have read from romance author Julie Garwood The Bride is surely one hot romantic story that will set your romantic senses afire By order of King Henry and King Edgar, the strong and mighty S [...]

I have to say I was disappointed by this book I love Julie Garwood and she is a wonderful author but this just didn t pass muster The story it self was just fine, it s the characters that bugged me to no end The way the characters were written was very confusing because at the beginning you are miss lead that the heroine is a strong and independent woman who is capable and smart, yet a few chapters later and a few conversations with her and all those descriptions are tossed out the window and in [...]
