El Compromiso
Virginia Waters había sufrido una humillación que ninguna novia debería experimentar, pero lo había superado y ahora estaba impaciente por casarse con Zack Bullock, hermano de su ex prometido. ¿Podría el famoso policía hacerle olvidar su amor de juventud y ayudarle a descubrir el placer de ser mujer? Zack prometió convertir a Virginia en su esposa. Casarse con la mujer a la que había abandonado su hermano era sólo una obligación familiar. Pero la muchacha desgarbada que recordaba se había convertido en una mujer impresionante... a la que deseó nada más verla.

Esta novela me la encontré por casualidad y no estaba segura de que fuese a leerla porque la portada no me gustaba nada, aunque la sinopsis era atrayente.
Es una novela un tanto corta pero la verdad es que estuvo mejor de lo que me esperaba. Es sencilla, con momentos bonitos y tiernos y entretiene. Iba con las expectativas muy bajas y tal vez eso hizo que me gustase bastante, pero es una historia romántica que está bastante bien para pasar un rato.

Good story that I finished fairly quickly for me these days. More in a review soon. TBR Challenge for April which was Location, Location, Location.

This book got panned in a lot of reviews, and I thought that was harsh. It wasn’t the best story Bridges has written but it wasn’t the worst either.

This was an all right book. I didn't love it and I didn't hate it. I liked the characters well enough and the story was okay, but it didn't captivate me like I'd hoped it would.
Zack Bullock is a sharpshooter with the Canadian Mounties. He's going to marry the woman his brother jilted for another woman and with whom his brother had been promising to marry for six years. Everything is set until the train he's on is ambushed and he's shot.
Virginia Waters is practicing medicine with her uncle in Calgary and is set to marry Zack until he calls it off. Both brothers dumped her. She grew up with them and their parents had paid for her to go to medical school. Now she is not only jilted twice, she needs to pay back their parents. Such a quandary.
Zack and the other Mounties are hot on the trail of the Stiller Gang and they've threatened both him and Virginia and even made some attempts on their lives. That made Zack even more protective, even if he's already broken off their engagement.
There is a lot of attraction between Virginia and Zack and the love scenes were sizzling. The reader knew they were in love before they did, which is something I do like. As the story neared the end, I wanted them to get their happily ever after. I knew they would, but how they got it made me smile.
As I said, this isn't a bad book. I just wasn't drawn into the story like I wanted to be.

Found this in a box of garage sale books I bought. Haven't read Harlequin in a long, long time, but thought I'd try it for a quick read.
