Swans Book Review

This book was a little slow for me but the story line was so romantic and funny that it carried me through the end of the book. Successful author Madeleine Houser is forced out of the place she is currently staying at because of the war zone........... I mean, constructions that are currently taking place. An accident prompts her neighbor to tell her about a bed and breakfast that sits vacant all day whilst the owner goes to work in another town.  Needing the peace and quit and a place to heal, Madeleine agrees and an amazing adventure was born. Seeing has how her neighbor, Ginny, is advanced in years, Madeleine thought that her friend must be as well.  The story about how he lost his wife cemented her thoughts and Madeleine thought that Arthur was an elderly gentleman. The flip side of this story that had me laughing was that Arthur thought the same thing.  Now Madeleine and Arthur occupy a space at different periods of time but they both feel each other's pre...

Alright, I read this part of the series after A February Bride and it was okay, I enjoyed a February Bride better but this was good in it's own way. Seth Murphy is in trouble.  He found the perfect woman in Layla O'Reilly, but his best friend beat him to the punch and asked her out first.  If that was not bad enough, his best friend leaves Layla for her cousin and now Layla is putting all the blame on him since he introduced the two. How can Seth fix this, read and find out.

Things don't go as plan when a marriage was announced out of duress but it was all a misunderstanding.  Things go from bad to worse before anything can be cleared up and now Seth and Layla are "pretend" engaged. To clear things up now would ...

I thought that this idea was really sound.  To have a book about a bride for each month of the year and by different authors.  I cannot be the only one to love this idea.  I was intrigued enough to read them, but unfortunately not in the correct order. Allie Andrews is cursed.  Not just her, her entire family is cursed and she could not be any more cursed than wearing the wedding dress that her grandmother, mother and aunt has gotten married in, more that once. On her wedding day, wearing that dress, that cursed dress that has plagued her family for generations, Allie knew that she could not do it.  She can't go through with the wedding and ruin his life, so in a state of self-sacrifice ( or so she tells herself ) Allie picks up herself and ran. ( Yes, like run-away bride ) You see, Allie's family has a long history of failed marriages and they don't just get married once, they do it over and over and over again.  It's hard to believe, but it's tru...
