3.5 or 3.75 .. Actually this book was better than the first. I skipped the 2nd due to bad review and headed straight the one that attracted me to the series Hero & Heroine fall into a scheme that was meant for their siblings (His Brother/ Her Sister) Catriona is thoroughly compromised and Hugh must marry her. This is the story of their forced marriage .. --------------------------------------- Spoiler ----------------------------------------------I really liked the set up and how he didn't believe her when she said that caitlyn is her twin sister.I also liked the children element in the story. but I think it needs to be clarified if Hugh really did father any of them.and then there is The Secret. by the time it is mentioned you already know it :( it's nothing to look forward to really.I love the curse. It's real. and I loved how Hugh could direct his.I think after reading 2 books for Karen Hawkins. I formed an idea of her writing style; its simple. Nothing complicated and no secrets to look forward to in the end of the book. I really like Karen Hawkins writing, and I really enjoy series books. Admittedly, it has been quite a while since I read the previous books in this one, but the story was entertaining enough for me to keep up with the action, with out feeling too lost in the back story.Hugh was a great guy, if a bit immature about marriage ideals.But He got on very well with Catrionia, and I knew they would make a great couple, once Trionia set him straight about how things would work.Just enough of the Alpha-Male character I really enjoy in 'Scotland' Novels, and these brothers are all pretty bull headed at times.The way they ended up in the carriage together was a wild start, and Hugh seemed like he may not do the right thing by Catrionia.When he did come for her, everything went fast for them. It was a bit misguided of Hugh to think he couldn't broach the subject of his girl with her. One would expect there would be plenty of gossip, so that all would know something about them.Hugh was a bit bullheaded about what her 'duties' would be while living in his house, and the idea that she would go back to her family after a few months, was a bit wild in my oppinion.But in the end, we all know that didn't happen. It was really a happy ending.
Do You like book Il Gioco Degli Equivoci (2012)?
Makes me want to read the rest of the series!
