The Bride's Baby (Harlequin Romance) Review

The book blurb made me think this was a Secret Baby story... Well, it was but, at the same time, it really wasn't considering the fact that the baby wasn't a secret. Confusing? Yes, that's the feeling I had throughout most of the book.
Tom and Sylvie had a brief meeting when she was introduced as the wedding planner for his upcoming nuptials to her friend Candy. An unexpected attraction sparked on both sides but, considering that he was about to get married, Tom and Sylvie shoved that feeling aside and never let anyone - including themselves - realize it. But after 6 months of heavy planning and preparation, Candy ditched everything to elope with one of Sylvie's employees 3 days before the wedding. Naturally, Tom felt it was his due to unload all his "annoyance" on Sylvie - after all, she had plagued his dreams since he had met her - and, before they knew it, their mutual suppressed attraction took over and they were having unprotected sex on his bed... Since this is Romancelandia, the "worst" thing you can get from unprotected sex is a pregnancy, so that's what Sylvie got. Unfortunately, Tom was no longer in the picture when Sylvie found herself pregnant, since he had left the country the day after their one-night stand. Unable to reach him by telephone, she had no choice but to deliver him the news by letter. Obviously, he never got to receive that letter and so this Failure to Communicate story took off...
This was one of those stories that wouldn't make past the 1st chapters if the hero and the heroine sat together and spoke CLEARLY with each other. Regardless, Tom and Sylvie were very likable characters, and that kind of "saved" the book for me and prevented me from throwing it against the wall - figuratively speaking, since this was an e-book. I rooted for their HEA and was glad when the darn Big Misunderstanding was finally resolved.
As for the writing, Ms. Fielding had the distracting habit of inserting the word "then" between the lines of the characters' speech. For example:
"Is that a fact?" Then, "So? Where are they?"
"I'd come and give you a hand but I have to take delivery of a cake." Then, "Do you need a hand up?"
I have to ask, what was the purpose of the word "then" in there? To gave us pause? To help her reach the necessary word count to meet the publisher's requirements? I know I'm nitpicking but that word was used over and over again in the story, and it was annoying.
All in all, I'm glad this was a freebie because I would have been "mad" if I had paid anything for this book.

The Greek Tycoon's Disobedient Bride (Harlequin Presents) Review

From the back of the book:
It amazed Ophelia that Lysander Metaxis- a Greek billionaire notorious for his harem of adoring women -wanted to marry her, a humble gardener with a grumbling old manor house and debts up to her ears.
But soon she realized Lysander didn't want her- he wanted her property and her body. But marry him she would, because she had no choice if she wanted to keep what she cherished most. And disobedient she would be, because her new husband had no intention of loving her...My take:
The heroine Ophelia inherits a rundown manor upon her grandmother's death. The house is in dire need of repairs and poor Ophelia has no money. The hero, Lysander wants to buy the manor because the house belonged to his "mother's" family. Ophelia's grandmother Gladys, hated the Metaxis family with a passion. Lysander's father broke up with Ophelia's mother and married the Lysander's mother instead. This fueled Gladys's bitter hatred of the Metaxis family. In order to hit the Metaxis clan with one last blow from the grave, Gladys leaves the manor to Lysander and Ophelia if they are married for one year. If they do not, the manor goes to a distant cousin who can not sell it for five years.
At the reading of the will, Lysander sees Ophelia for the first time. He gets that "manly urge" because of Ophelia lovely face and hourglass figure. When Ophelia tells Lysander she will never marry him, he informs her that she needs his money to repair the manor. Ophelia eventually gives in with the hope that a second document her grandmother left behind will give her the whereabouts of her younger sister. At the wedding reception, Ophelia was given the second document telling her that her younger sister had been adopted. There was also a second will which was written later than the first, it fully gave the manor to Ophelia. Lysander was beyond angry and thought Ophelia knew of her grandmother's second will. Ophelia threatens to divorce Lysander since the manor is now hers but Lysander counters that he bankrupt her if she tries.
Of course, the two move in together, have a few misunderstandings but in the end get on well declare their love blah blah blah. The story between Ophelia's mother and the Metaxis is quite detailed and full of twists and turns. I must say that this book had one of the most exciting *scenes * wink wink of Lynne Graham's books. Only The Frenchman's Love-Child Brides of L'Amour (Harlequin Presents)hild had more hot *scenes*. Overall, the book was somewhat dry, maybe it is because the hero was super PC. I will give this book 4 out of 5 stars because it was a decent read and Graham did a good job with the background between the two families

Accidental Mistress (From Here To Paternity) (Harlequin Presents) Review

Lisa hadn't planned to fall in love. If only she hadn't accepted an invitation to be Angus Hamilton's guest and found herself in a different world, seduced by glamour, a jet-set life-style...and Angus!
She'd become an accidental mistress-and now she was accidentally pregnant! But Angus was more interested in living it up than settling down. Yet suddenly he was delivering Lisa's baby-and loving every minute! Had fatherhood turned a dedicated playboy into perfect husband material?
Slightly different, main characters are interesting and plot moves along with a nice tension. Lisa isn't really seduced by the lifestyle as much as enjoying it while it lasts. Angus is a man looking for something he just might have found, by hitting it with his car!

The Spanish Billionaire's Pregnant Wife (Harlequin Presents) Review

There was something missing and it's not the best of her books. I really like the part where she goes to get acquainted with her siblings, because that's the best part and the obvious bit that culminates the other two books. The strong family vibe that they have in this final book is what makes it worth reading. I accidentally read this book first and I had to read the other two as a result. If anything, though, the second first should be read first, then this. The first one is the weakest, but it provides foundation for the other two. If you'd rather have the full story straight off, then read all three in order. But you can give the first one a miss if you want.

The Spanish Billionaire's Pregnant Wife (Harlequin Presents) Overview

Leandro Carrera Marquez, Duque de Sandoval, was as aristocratic, proud and arrogant as his name...and darkly handsome in an impossible, breathtaking way. What would this billionaire Spanish banker want with a struggling, impoverished waitress like Molly?

But Leandro did want Molly--and he took her, accidentally making her pregnant with his child. In Leandro's traditional world, there was only one option--marry the mother of his heir. After all, none of his noble ancestors had actually married for love....

Julie's Gift: Memories of London Review

I just read 'Julie's Gift' written by Kevin Kirsch, a husband who is not a feelings sharer, but through this novella lets us all know (including his wife) that he does have deep feelings. It is a nice light read that may make you look at your unromantic partner a bit differently since it reminds you that just because feelings are not shared doesn't mean they're not felt. The plot is not riveting and you won't find a car chase, but that's the best part. It revolves around a couple's anniversary trip to London, England. The husband admits his idea of a trip is from the couch to the fridge, but goes out of love for his wife. It unfolds from there. The coolest thing about this book is that it was penned in secret by the husband and presented to her as a Valentine's surprise! Julie's Gift has great sample itineraries (how they actually spent their days in London) as well as the author's Top Ten London Travel Tips for the Guys (funny and useful list).
Not everyone is romantic or able to share feelings aloud, and many of those people are men. This book is a thoughtful and dare I say passionate shout to his wife to tell her that even when he doesn't say so, he is happy and lucky to be with her.

Julie's Gift: Memories of London Overview

Kevin and Julie travel to London. Kevin loathes sightseeing. Julie is the quintessential tourist. Kevin ends up enjoying the trip but doesn't tell Julie. He secretly writes a book about his fond memories to surprise her and express his love.
