Review: Trust Issues ... Not My Idea of Romance

I prefer my heroines in a book to be smart, intuitive women, not weak, assuming chits. This book was not as good as the Brides of Beckham series, mainly because this (the third) and its predecessors have very weak, insupportable plots. The lead females seem whiny and thick to me, mistrusting rather than using their common sense to suss out the love they're getting but instead mistrusting it because the story needs a plotline.In this book there were too many red herrings. Although I will say that I liked Amaryllis and Alex's pre-emptive marital relations! This was the most steamy I've seen this author go, and I was proud of her. She went there (a little) and gave us a desperate lover and his soul mate acting the way real people might have acted. For that, I chose three stars instead of two.
