This is another Beauty and the Beast type story BUT I love stories with this premise. I did not read the first book in this series and found that it stood very well alone.

I liked the heroine, Tara, (after she gets her comeuppance subsequent to making her groom wait 3 hours for her), in that she throws herself whole heartedly into becoming a good wife: not in the bedroom (which she fears) but in her role as the Laird's wife. The wedding night scene was funny but plays into Breccan's hands in that his uncles' take the broken bed ropes being due to a good romp in bed between the newly weds.

Breccan and Tara have a fair amount of misunderstanding to work through: her father married her off because of his gambling debts, Breccan is taunted into making a bet on a horse race and in doing so puts all his hard work to reestablish his clan's financial footing in jeopardy. Then there is Tara's childhood crush, who shows up after his marriage fails. Here we see of what Tara's backbone is really made.

The two uncles add a lot of spice to the story. One is a bawdy comic while the other has a lot of hard earned wisdom to share.

I don't know if this couple is mentioned in the next book in the series. (I did read the book description for the next book but read nothing of them.) I would have liked to have read more about their married life, an epilogue, as most of the book was about their relationship leading up to them falling in love.

The Bride Says Maybe The Brides of Wishmore Cathy Maxwell 9780062219275 Books Reviews

I sent my husband to the store to pick out me a romance novel he has never picked one before. I was surprised that he came back with "The Bride Says No". I read it liked it and had to get this on when it came out. I enjoyed it but it was missing something for me that I just can't put my finger on. However, If you love the highlands you like this book. Minnie H.
I gave this book a four star rating because it lacked an epilogue however I would recommend this book to all romantic readers because it had all the elements of a good read.
I enjoyed this book a lot. Heroine starts out a bit spoiled then quickly and steadily grows beyond that. The hero is strong, generous, awkward, and humorous. The two are an interesting couple and their relationship unfolded perfectly. I recommend this book.
I'm feeling a bit jaded about my historical romances and I bought this book without many expectations. What a delight it turned out to be. I hadn't read the first in the series and I think it was a good thing, since I quite liked this h, who apparently was a b**ch in the first book. Here the H is a giant of a man and not particularly good looking and he's smitten by the h. The h is beautiful but very vulnerable. The h's dad virtually sells her into marriage with the H and their relationship develops from there. I didn't love the misunderstanding but it did allow for the love and communication between the main characters to develop.
I really recommend this book.
I think I liked this book even better than the first!

Breccan was a great hero. I love heroes that are on the insecure side. It is such a nice change from the usual arrogant rake! Breccan is a large man with an equally large heart. He wants Tara from the minute he meets her. He thinks having her as a wife will give him the respect he thinks he doesn't have from society.

Tara the spoiled brat from the first book, grows up in this book. She comes into her own and finds peace - finally!

I loved watching these two get to know each other and fall in love.

The writing was great, the story flowed perfectly and the misunderstanding didn't drag on and on. I finished this book with a smile on my face. And while it wasn't as steamy as I usually like, it was just right for this book.

I would have liked an epilogue or at least an update on Aileen and Blake. But even without those - it was a wonderful read.
In the first book of this series, The Bride Says No, Tara is a spoiled beauty who runs away from her intended, setting off a series of events for the benefit of her sister. In this book, Tara's father sells her to the Laird in exchange for having his gambling debts paid. For the first time in her life, her beauty is not enough to get her all she wants, and she is forced to stop running away whenever she doesn't get her way, but to make a stand. The prize is the love of the one man she grows to want. Cathy Maxwell has written an interesting story, with well thought out characters. The only problem is a sloppy job of editing, at least on the edition. Someone needs to check the spelling and a couple of grammar mistakes.
During her third season, Tara decides she'll marry, but changes her mind at almost the last minute and runs away because she doesn't love her fiancé and thinks she loves her friend who became a horse master. But he's married now. She becomes persona non grata in London, because the father of former fiancé is powerful enough to make it so. What will happen?
Then it really starts. Boy sees girl. Girl glances at boy. Boy wants to marry girl. Girl despises boy. And never a word spoken between them. Then boy arranges to "buy" girl to marry. Girl tries to run away, but runs into boy and his party on the way to her home. Boy marries girl, but only because they make agreement that she can live in London after having two children. The fun begins, but not like you might think. Yes, it works like all romances, but you know that already. It's the way it works that makes it a very good book. Cathy Maxwell, you wrote a book that I really enjoyed reading. Looking forward to the next book in the series after the taste you gave!
