Seven In February...A Recap

I read seven books in the month of February.  They were all from the romance genre since I am participating in the Cupcakes War Reading Challenge, and it's genre for February was of course romance.  To read my thoughts on any of the books below just click on the link below the book.

I had hoped to finish The Thorn Birds by the end of February bringing my total to eight, but I just couldn't fit it in.  I'm hoping to finish it in the next few days.  I'm really looking forward to March and a month of mysteries.

My Thoughts On The Romance Novel, One True Love

Source:  Goodreads



From Goodreads...

Lord William Prescott is in want of a wife.  Unfortunately, the lady he wants is betrothed.


Miss Cassandra Chambers simply cannot understand her attraction to Lord William.  After all, she is supposed to be in love with Mr. Miles Parker.  In a scandalous twist of fate, Cassie's future changes when Lord William rides to her rescue, saves her from ruin, and makes her his wife.


When William comes to believe that Cassie's heart may always belong to another, he is determined to lock away his own.  If only he could lock away his desire for his One True Love.

I have to admit that I don't usually read these types of romance novels.  You know the one with the woman in the throes of passion and the bare chested man on the cover ripping her clothes off.  These covers normally turn me off from a book, but for February I wanted to read at least one of "these types" of romances.  And I have to say it was what I expected.

I did like the story and I liked the characters.  It was a bit slow in the beginning (and a bit repetitive), but by the middle it picked up nicely.  A few things happened that I didn't see coming, and in that I was pleasantly surprised.  Now I have read a few romance novels in my day, and I knew there would be some sexual content.  But I have to say that this book has some VERY graphic scenes, so be prepared for that if you choose to read this book. Also,  there are several typing errors through out.

Even though this type of book is not one that I typically read, it was ok.  Will I rush out to get another one like it?  No, but that's just me.  If you love romance and are not put off by graphic content then give One True Love a try.
