Shotgun Bride (McKettrick Cowboys Trilogy #2) 15 reviews
Linda Lael Miller
Pocket Star, 2003
Another wonderful Book
I really enjoyed this book as much as the first. The one thing I really did like about this series is that you still read about the whole family. Alot of the series books don't include anyone from the first and I liked that these ones do.

Reply to What Have You Done For Me Lately
I read What No One Tells the Bride a while ago and was shocked when I read the review titled "What Have You Done for Me Lately." Let me quote what comes straight after "To this day, her husband does not know about the fling" on page 48.
"Now, I'm not recommending a fling as the learning experience is was for Yvonne. But among the brides I interviewed for the book, Yvonne's experience is not ...

The Manning Brides: Marriage Of Inconvenience\Stand-In Wife2 reviews
Debbie Macomber
Mira, 2008
Two Books in One- Another Great read from Macomber
I just finished the second book of the two published here together. I really love the way Debbie Macomber writes- romantic without being nasty. Relationships are at the heart of her books. And this is what makes these two stories fun to read. We can all relate to the characters here- they are well developed and entertaining. I could relate to the problems of both of the Manning brides. How ...

The MacGregor Brides (The Macgregors)46 reviews
Nora Roberts
Silhouette, 2007
Romance Plus
This book was my introduction to the MacGregor Family. I instantly fell in love with every single one of them; so much so that I am now going back to the beginning and reading "Rebellion" to fully understand the how and why of the MacGregor clan. In "Brides," Nora Roberts takes us through the romantic journey and subsequent pairings of the three MacGregor granddaughters - Laura (the attorney) ...

BEST ENGAGEMENT GIFT!
My husband and I received this gift as an engagement gift many years ago. The recipes are great! Probably not the most healthy version of some of the common dishes but very yummy! Since then, this has been my number one gift of choice for newly engaged couples.

The Secret Bride: In The Court of Henry VIII 22 reviews
Diane Haeger
NAL Trade, 2008
Couldn't put it down!
I loved this book! As a long-time fan of Tudor history, I find there are LOTS of books out there - not all that good. Diane Haeger transports you back in time, and you feel as if you are a witness of the times. The book ended too soon, and I found I wanted to research Mary and find out more about her. My only complaint was with the publisher itself - who printed the book leaving about 30 pages ...

On Being Present...
This book is about being present to the transition of going from singlehood to couplehood, on leaving the girl behind and stepping into the next phase in life...we are so much more than just "wife" - but this book explores the psychological transformation of one of the most important times of our life - like a changing of the seasons.
I highly recommend this book for every bride. Educating ...

Sue Fleming
Villard, 2002
Great book!
I bought this book to get ready for my upcoming wedding this summer. It's a great book. It's very easy to read and has a great personal touch. I love how she has pre-planned the workouts and is giving realistic time frames. I read it in one day and I love her exercises. They are very reasonable and she explains them great.

The Princess Bride: S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure671 reviews
William Goldman
Harvest Books, 2007
Real Fantasy
I was afraid to read this book and avoided it for many years. I so dearly love the movie and I just didn't want to be disappointed either way. If the book was better, as is usually the case, then my movie experience would be tarnished. If the movie was better then I'd be wasting my time with the book.
Well nevermind to all of that, because I LOVE this book and now the two separate entities ...

The Best Robert Alexander Novel Yet !
I am an avid historical fiction fan,visited Russia, and have read this author's previous novels. This is his best novel yet! I especially liked how he moved his story back and forth between the two central characters. We eventually begin to know them and the times in which they lived. I highly recommend this book because it is informative, engaging, and well-written.

Must for Mom
My mom had so many questions about what she was supposed to do as the MOB, so I purchased this book for her. She LOVES it! I have not read it, but she is always referring to it. She says that it addresses all sorts of issues and had been extremely helpful. She has recommended it for one of her friends who is also a MOB.

Enchanting Art
As someone who reads manhwa from time to time (and manga all of the time), this is the first time I was really impressed with the art work AND the story line. The first two pages (Front and back) are in color and the art is breathtaking. I keep reading it and wishing the whole book was in color. The story itself is very captivating and I can't wait to turn the page, but I take my time because ...

Spuky, Headstrong , and Independant
I would give it 3 and 1/2 stars but I cant. I like this book so much better than the other two because I could relate so much with her. I understand her fear for personal reasons and how she struggles with them. I like how she independent and noble and willing to stand up for her friends. I like that at first she doesnt give in to Heath what he's used to. What I like about Heath is that he's ...

Julie Garwood
Pocket Star, 1991
ONE OF THE BEST!
"The Bride" is, in my opinion, one of the best examples of historical romance ever. Julie Garwood takes us back in time to the Highlands of Scotland where we see the sparks fly between Jamie ("a man's name") and Alec. Their raw chemistry is almost tangible in this thrilling tale. The plot itself is masterfully crafted as we see Alec choose Jamie from among her sisters to be the one he would ...

Best book I have read in a while!
This was a wonderful read! Fun, entertaining and exciting from beginning to end! Although at times it may have been somewhat predictable, it was such an enchanting read that it didn't matter to this reader! It was just so fun to read! Made me smile all the way through and I was so sad when the book ended.....!!

Paperback mirror
I'm an American living in Japan, and though I have friends here, it has been difficult to find someone to discuss the ins and outs and minute details of my wedding with. It is so easy to lose yourself in all the wedding glitz and without my close friends here to act as mirrors, I felt myself slipping, forgetting who I am and what the real me would want for my wedding.
Then I ordered this ...

Joanna Hershon
Ballantine Books, 2008
Great read!
A beautifully written historical tale of strength and suffering in the American West. Lush and evocative, The German Bride is at once romantic and tough--full of desperation and regret, passion and resolve, yearning and redemption. I couldn't put it down.

BEST of the Bride & Groom Cookbooks
I have gone through the Betty Crocker Bride & Groom Cookbook, the Better Homes and Garden Bride & Groom Cookbook and many more trying to find one that would have great pointers for cooking for two as well as great dishes. This cookbook has it all. The recipes are great classic dishes and the recipes range from breakfast foods to desserts. I highly recommend this cookbook.
