Forsaking All Others (Harlequin Presents, No 1850)

Rating:
Summary: light romance, no dark plot here.
Review: A widow is faced with her past as she meets up with her first love, the man who was likely to have married another way-back-before she wed---only he didn't. They marry for convenience at first. She hopes eventually it will become more. Only his agenda is more primal than the stuff of her dreams.
Nice easy-reader romance.

Summary: Forsaking All Others -- Not the Best
Review: While there was nothing horribly wrong with the plot or characters, I just found it dull. Granted, there isn't alot of room for details in a short story book, so I don't grade it too harshly. The problem was that the characters were your run-of-the mill hero and heroine, their reactions were so very typical. The plot was dull and a bit cheesy, much like the dialogue. It wasn't absoloutly terrible, it's just not really worth reading. You're not really reading anything new, although the author did effectively make Saskia come out annoying. Ah well, I've read better.
