The Accidental Bride (Hqn) by Christina Skye (Sep 18, 2012)
RATED 5 STARS
This was such a romantic book, not filled with the usual
sexual tension we have come to expect from this genre. This book is simply a wonderful story told
well. If you are looking for a story
filled with hot sex and passion, then this most likely will not be the book for
you. Not to say that there is no passion
in this book, it is just that the fans of passion are not really flamed until
after the wedding!
Jilly is a young orphaned woman just finally making a go at
her career. She won her own restaurant
and even has a line of salsas and chipotle sauces that are gaining in
popularity. Until one day while in the
middle of cooking for her restaurant she experiences chest pain, nausea and
blacks out. Now she must make some changes in her life and to help her think
and to put things into perspective her two best friends send her off on a vacation in Wyoming.
Walker is a near recluse in this Wyoming town, that is until he meets with
Jilly as she is getting off her plane in Wyoming. They interact as she drops her suitcase that
has an abundance of snack cakes and chocolate and some sparks fly.As Walker
finally starts coming more and more out of his shell they realize that things
might progress. And things seem to be
going well until under special circumstances they agree to a ‘staged’ yet
perfectly legal wedding.
This book was realistic and the characters are so well drawn
and fleshed out that it was almost like reading about some of my own
friends. I rooted for Jilly, Walker, and
his dog Winslow! If there is one complaint I had with this book it would be
that it ended too soon and the epilogue didn’t give me the follow-up information
on their lives that I really wanted.
So as I said, if you are looking for a sweet non sex packed
romantic novel with a truly good story, this may be something well worth your
reading time.
