The Bride and the Mercenary is one oif the most intriguing books I've read in a while. Keeping you on your toes throughout the whole
book guessing who the evil villian is.
Ainslie O'Connell looses the man she loves with heart wrenching emotions. She buried him, but not completely. Years later she gets engaged to a man wiser in age, Pearson McNeil. But on Lee's (Anslie) wedding day, she turns to smile at her guest and looks into the face of the one man and only man shes ever loved, the man she buried. Lee takes off after the man she believes to be her love Seamus Malone, to find only a haggard bum who goes by the name of John Smith. John seemingly paranoid people are after him drags her through an abandoned building to a safe room. As it turns out he really is being chased, and he really is Seamus Malone, but for some reason he doesn't remember. When Seamus finally remembers who he is, he takes off after Lee suspecting her safety to be compromised. Lee, blissfully happy to have the man of her life back willlfully denies him having any involvement in the crimes of the "executioner" ( Seamus?), when she finds out Seamus was a mercenary, the one thing she truly hates, nothing will stop her from keeping him in her life. Past or no past. With victims of the Executioner dying around them and Seamus the main suspect, its up to the two to stay safe, and to try to find out if the executioner isn't Seamus, then who is it? At the very ending of the book, we find out who the suspect is. Not Seamus. ( Who you have to read for yourself, seriously!)
