A little bit of glossy love shines thru dross of plot. ..

Unwanted Wedding: Heiress Rosy Wyndham needs to marry within two months if she desires to retain her ancestral home - threatened by the only other heir, her uncle Edward. Her long time nemesis 'Guard', neither friend nor foe, agrees to wed her in a marriage of mutual convenience, to be concluded after a year. However, Rosy has never felt entirely comfortable around Guard and he seems to delight in torturing her. Nothing new here, but old plots rather sweetly wrapped. From the beginning it is transparent that Guard is obviously nuturing some attraction to Rosy, and Rosy oblivious and taking everything with angst. The Borghese Bride: Set between America and Italy, ridiculously rich Dominic Borghese loans an imperious autocrat 3 million dollars with terms she finds impossible to fulfil. Ariana is heir to the business which her grandmother has mortgaged to Dominic, and that is not the only connection between the two. Ariana had conceived a child during a one night stand with Dominic, and neither of them are aware of the identity of the other. When fate brings them together again, two strong personalities clash over a three-million-dollar marriage proposition, and one small child. The plotlines are all trivia really, because the enjoyable part of this book is the peppering of italian endearments & the charm of the foreign setting. In spite of the trite & banal storylines, author Sandra Morton manages to make quite a heartwarming romance and a very likeable character in Dominic - although Ariane is painted a bit less vividly. Not a bad collection - two books of which The Borghese Bride is definately the star, but both are a decent read & manage to tug the heart strings. kotori 2005

TWO GREAT STORIES!

Sandra Marton and Penny Jordan are a great pair of tale-tellers. I really enjoyed this book and the stories they each told.
