The Bride's Proposition - Proposal Pernikahan

Rate this book
Tidak ada cinta dalam kasus Penelope Wentworth, yang mendedikasikan seluruh hidupnya utnuk bekerja. Namun ia membutuhkan suami demi mendapatkan warisan atas perusahaannya. Jadi ia mendari jalan sepraktis mungkin-menyeleksi calon-calon suami potensial dan menawarkan kerja sama bisnis dalam bentuk kawin kontrak! Stefano Salvatore seperti pilihan ideal. Apalagi pernikahan mereka akan menggabungkan aset-aset bisnis mereka. Apa mungkin SAtefano menolak tawaran yang menggiurkan ini?

Sebaliknya, pria Italia yang tampan ini amat mengagungkan cinta dan sudah bertekad hanya akan menikah demi cinta. Pernikahan bagianya adalah komitmen seumur hidp. Bukan hidup sesaat dengan wanita asing yang begitu datang ke kantornya langsung membuat hebih dengna proposalnya itu. Ia mengira Penelope sinting-sekaligus memesona. Sebenarnya, Stefano malah mulai mempertimbangkan tawaran Penelope secara serius!

I love family first and foremost, which is why writing family sagas and stories that involve family is so much fun. Maybe you can tell that from my books since they always feature the warmth and joy and ridiculousness that comes from having a close-knit family.

I also love animals and have taken in rescue dogs and cats and fostered dogs for the local animal shelter.

And of course, I love writing. All I need is a functioning brain (batteries not included), a pen, and paper, and I can write anywhere. Please don’t let a conversation with me lag because my imagination takes over and I. Am. Checked. Out!

USA Today bestselling author, Day Leclaire is the author of more than 60 novels and has received an impressive eleven nominations for the romance industry's most prestigious award, Romance Writers of America RITA© Award. Day lives in Charlotte, NC and spends her days obsessively writing while vaguely remembering to pay attention to her adorable husband, busy son and daughter-in-law, two tiny grandchildren, and two even tinier Teddy Bear dogs. Not to mention a whole lot of dust!

I enjoyed this book, the heroine is a perfectly logical and analytical businesswoman who wants to get married to get her inheritance so she propositions the hero, marry her and she will give him an edge in business but selling one of her companies as well as try and restore the smirch on his name because of a business deal gone wrong with his ex-fiancee, you see she believes he was innocent because well she thought logically.

The hero doesn't want to marry her or anyone after his failed engagement but he is attracted to the heroine even though her thought processes are kind of funny but he also doesn't want her to make the mistake of marrying his sleazy competitor, so they hatch a marriage of convenience and a whirlwind courtship which was so fun, with the heroine confusing his twin for him and doing things which were not logical.

The hero and heroine were a perfect case of opposites attract with the hero soon accepting he loved her and was keeping her.

Business Or Personal?
Penelope thinks of herself as a extremely rational woman and Dante sees the emotional, warm woman she hides beneath. It takes him a long time to convince her that he sees the truth. A wonderful, funny, warm story with lovable characters and an enemy who hides his malice. A little problem with identical twins, but only temporary 😉. Great guys, those Salvatore brothers! Enjoyed this book very much <3

Captivating

Excellent storyline, captivating and entertaining. Dante and Penelope’s characters are strong, loving, loyal and their interactions are passionate, engaging and often funny. I love this book and recommend it to romance readers.

This is the one I read back in the decade when it was written. I only remembered a bit of it prior to rereading, but more came back to me while I was rereading. I just thought this story was a lot of fun, and upon rereading, I still think that.

Tidak ada kamus cinta bagi Penelope Wentworth yg mendedikasikan hidupnya untuk bekerja. Wanita yg selalu mencoba berpikir logis dalam ritme hidupnya terpaksa mencari jalan praktis demi mencari 'suami sementara' untuk menyelamatkan aset & perusahaanya. Maka dimulailah hunting mencari calon suami. Salah satu pria yg menjadi incarannya adalah Stefano Salvatore. Pria Italia yg datang dari keluarga sukses, bahagia & big family. Bagi Stefano, menaklukan 'nellie' seperti sebuah tantangan yg menjajikan (selain berhasrat memiliki perusahaannya jg) namun dibalik semua itu Salvatore ingin memberikan seluruh kebahagiaan & cinta yg sebenarnya untuk Penelope seorang.

Salah satu karangan Day Leclaire yang terbaik dan tidak terlupakan.

Kisah romance antara Penelope & Salvatore dibumbui dengan banyak kekonyolan. Bagaimana usaha Penelope meyakinkan Salvatore untuk bekerja sama dengannya menyelamatkan perusahaannya Salvatore dan warisan Penelope dengan jalan menikah. Kekonyolan yang terjadi ketika Penelope mengetahui kalau Salvatore sebenarnya memiliki saudara kembar identik.

Buku ini dipenuhi banyak kisah lucu hingga menyenangkan untuk dibaca berulang kali.

Nice "marriage of convenience" story with a too logical female paired with a too passionate male. No big misunderstandings, just a sweet story.
