The One-Week Wife

One-Week...Gallagher #1

by Hayley Gardner

Will You Be My Bride?

Woman after woman—from frumpy hausfraus to miniskirt-and-fishnet-stockinged vamps—is traipsing through Gina Delaney's mysterious—and sexy—neighbor's house. What is that tight-lipped scowling new man in town up to? she wonders. But she's not in the dark for long—Matt suddenly comes knocking on her door, asking her to be his pretend bride! Gina's curiosity finally gets the best of her, and she agrees. After all, what damage can happen in just a week?

"Non si era mai innamorata perché non aveva mai visto negli occhi di un uomo accendersi la passione per lei solo guardandola. In quel momento, lei e Matt si guardarono negli occhi e, finalmente, Gina capì cosa si nascondesse dietro quello sguardo intenso. Amore"

Trama molto classica ma non nego che mi abbia strappato qualche risata (sopratutto grazie al dolce Frankie XD) e non mancano anche momenti di commozione. L'unico "neo" è la protagonista Gina, che ho trovato decisamente troppo impicciona e troppo calata nella sua missione di crocerossina...credo sia più innamorata dell'idea dell'amore che di Matt XD

Received this in a Hen-weekend party bag and ended up reading it on the return train journey. Not my usual read and while the story telling is good, the story itself is not my cup of tea with a predictability that I'm sure many find appealing that I found simply irksome. The characters were also a little shallow and lacked a certain depth and variety but they suited the story and the style of writing perfectly. This book does exactly what it says on the cover and if you like this type of story then you'll love it, if not you'll probably enjoy it as little as I did. Don't think I'll be picking another Mills and Boon up any time soon (but at least now I can say I've tried!).

Ripropongo la definizione che danno le stelline. It was ok.
