Title: His Tempting Bride
Rating: 3 stars
After not finishing the last two books I picked up, I was happy to find this. I enjoyed the set up and find Gage extremely easy to like.
Overall the story flowed well. It didn't feel rushed or bogged down. I also liked the fact that we get to meet Gage's brothers, although I would have liked a little more with them given this is the first book in a new series.
Now to the parts I didn't like and the reason this book got three stars instead of four. In one word, repetition. When Gage tells Heather about his brother Zach, he informs her Zach tames horses...three times in three chapters. But worse than that, for me, was the constant use of the word 'curvy' or some variation. Heather constantly refers to herself as curvy and asks over and over again if the hero could love a curvy girl like her or love her curves. It became too much and began pulling me out of the story.
Will I read this author again? Maybe. As I said, the story was good, but I wanted the heroine to have a bit more confidence in herself.
I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a BBW romance and doesn't mind heroines with confidence issues.
