The Novice Bride Reviews

3.0
“This was quite a good book. I enjoyed it a great deal. The author created the characters well, and made them both believable and sympathetic. You could understand the motivations of each of them and sympathised with their plights - while understanding at the same time what was keeping them apart. The plot was interesting and kept the book moving while not getting in the way of the romance - the most important part, of course. My one problem with this book was that they fell in love too quickly. Yes, this is a romance novel and all, but people just can't fall in love in a couple of days. I don't believe it. Also, I would have liked to hear more about Emma - her sister obviously had something going on with Judhael, and I would have liked to hear more about what went on between them and how he changed, etc. etc. Despite that, though, this was a good book and I'm glad I read it.”
