REVIEW: Wedded Bliss by Barbara Metzger

JayneBook Reviews / C+ Reviewsfather and son / found family / Historical / marriage-of-convenience / mother and son / Regency / Widowed Heroine / widower2 Comments

Robert Rothmore, Earl of Rockford, thinks Alissa Henning is simply delightful-exactly the kind of woman who’d make the perfect mother for his sons.

Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail by Ashley Herring Blake This book had a cute start and an interesting premise. I really liked the author’s earlier book, Delilah Green Doesn’t Care, but although this book wasn’t bad, it wasn’t quite as good. Astrid, whom we met in the last book, is standoffish ... more >
