To Woo a Wife by Carole Mortimer (HP 2039)

Not that wonderful.  Good characters, some funny moments, but full of cliches and too much ice cold distance put up between the hero/heroine.  Not very overt in the romance/desire points…  I think the author was too focused on making the H/H find a tame love (to make up for the horrible marriage she had with her dead husband).  I don't think we ever FELT the emotions of the heroine (or hero)... I couldn't get swept away because it felt like the heroine was so cold she wasn't experiencing passion. 

Rating: 2/5 stars, this book was cold, something just didn't work in this book.  Read other books by Carole Mortimer, she's done much better: i.e. The One and Only
