I really, really liked the storyline.  Two people getting married in a few weeks but to the wrong people.  They meet and start to see their mistake.  Each are being pressured by their families to marry the wrong person but the person that the family chooses.  It is obvious that both are headed for disaster.The hero is a good guy.  you can't help but like him.  He has his priorities a little mixed up.  Not working too much but thinking that a big house, married to the correct wife, having a successful career is all it takes  for him to be happy.  WRONG.  She is a high school teacher engaged to the man of her mother's dreams.  He is a total jerk.  Except for his nice suit, there is not much good to say about him.  She recognizes it is a mistake but doesn't have the balls or spine to get out of  it.The heroine is a complete ninny.  She really was a doormat for everyone in the book with a pair of feet.  She couldn't open her mouth to be heard or to stand up for herself.  That got on my nerves a bit.  Whenever she didn't fall into line her mother would deliver a blow to get her back in line, usually using her dead father's wishes to push her point home.  It is funny that she cannot stand up for herself with anyone but the father that she seemed to love the best.  Weird.This girl really needs to grow a pair.  Now I think this book is played out in Canada, not sure of some of the cities and some of the phrases didn't sound like the USA, but at any rate I have to wonder.  When a person is on pain medication, is it ok to drink wine there?  Didn't think those two mixed anywhere.  I think this is a very cute storyline, there are no heavy sex scenes, so any age could read, so I would recommend the book.  I found it entertaining and I think most everyone would.
