THEIR MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE…
For years, Lady Melloria Whitmore has believed her childhood best friend and secret love Brigham Clarke agreed to marry her out of a sense of duty. Knowing how important Brigham’s work with Parliament is to him, she agrees to see him once a year, when he returns to his country estate for the holidays. This Christmas, Mellie vows to give Brigham the one thing he has always wanted: an heir. For one night, she’ll share his bed, and she’ll have that memory of passion to get her through the long winter nights without him.
IS ABOUT TO BECOME A MARRIAGE OF LOVE.
Except Brigham doesn’t want just one night—he wants forever. He’s loved Mellie all his life, and making her his Viscountess Whitmore was his dream. He just never thought Mellie returned his feelings. So when Mellie begins her seduction under the Christmastide moon, Brigham receives the best gift of all: his wife’s love.
Review:
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
The book was more angst-filled than I expected. That's not exactly a bad thing, but I wish we had spent more time on how the two main characters were fairing after they decided to have a marriage based on love rather than guilt. Once again communication is the key and our characters should have realized that sooner. A lot of conflict could have been avoided if they had a serious talk about the reasons they entered the marriage in the first place.
What I liked about this story was the detail the author used when it came to the clothes the characters were wearing. For example, I don't picture the heroines in historical romances wearing gloves, but in this book, they are mentioned, so for the next few months, I will have that in mind when I read a historical novel.
The book is short and for me, it's something one might read in between other books or when they need a fast happy ending. Reading it will take about an hour or two, so you can sit down one afternoon and finish it.
