North to Alaska by Olivia Gaines
Modern Mail Order Brides #1. Contemporary romance novella.
Amanda travels to Alaska to be a mail order bride. But lies were told and her new home and husband to-be isn’t as expected.
Amanda is practical and knows what’s needed and does it. She cleans, she planned, she can make soap and preserve food. Frankly she amazingly talented. Her initial reactions upon arriving at her destination though are pretty extreme considering she traveled there voluntarily.
I’m not sure I cared for the premise that stranded with her for months means Riley cannot control himself. But moving on…The two work together for practical purposes and out of necessity. Fairly high heat.
In the end, it’s a mail order bride romance and hea.… (mehr)

Not what I was expecting. Decent story line, characterizations were a bit caricature.
Gah I really wanted to like this! But the writing style is just not for me..

This is a sweet, funny story. Both characters are very likable, and the setting is unusual - for me, at least. The banter between Damien and Bolanie sparkles, though an ongoing joke about her "capping" his "pen" wore thin for me long before they were done with it. There's a lot of sex talk and innuendo, but this is a closed-door romance when it comes to doing the deed. Ordinarily, this would put me off, but author Oliva Gaines kept me interested and invested in seeing the couple through to their happily-ever-after.
Things felt a little rushed during the expected third-act misunderstanding and break-up (not a spoiler, honestly), but that's almost par for the course in a book of this length. Overall, an enjoyable read.… (mehr)
