Royal Dewar,
duke of Bransford, promised his father as he lay on his
death bed that he would marry Jocelyn Caulfield and bring
the family’s estate back from ruins. Royal doesn’t want to
marry, but he will, for his father’s sake. Jocelyn is
wealthy and breathtakingly beautiful, except Royal is more
attracted to Jocelyn’s cousin Lily Moran. Royal tries to
ignore his attraction to Lily, but once he tasted her lips,
he cannot get enough. And now, with Lily helping to catch
the man responsible for his father’s ruin, denying his
feeling for her is even harder. Royal loves Lily, however
with so much at stake, is love enough?
Royal mistakenly thinking Lily is his bride-to-be, and
Lily’s candid admission of her past and Royal’s reaction to
it, are just two of the many wonderful moments in
Royal’s Bride. From fun to exciting and romantic to
erotic, Royal’s Bride is a lovely historical
novel with not one, but two heart-warming romances. Things
seem a little unfair to Jocelyn at times, even if she is a
brat, but watching Royal and Lily together is delightful. By
the middle of the story I was as captivated by Jocelyn’s
plight as Royal and Lily’s. I love how things work out for
all of them. Royal’s Bride is a charming love
story rich in tradition and full of angst. |
