3 of 5 stars
It has been several months since I read the first book in
this series, THREE WEEKS TO WED, where we are introduced to Matt and Grace's
story. I had a hard time figuring out who was who in THE SECOND TIME AROUND.
Within the first couple of paragraphs, several characters were introduced and
it made it difficult to follow. The heroine, Patience, now a widow living under
her step-son Matt's roof with her 4 daughters has loved Richard Wolverton her
whole life. Now 20 years later, he's back in her life and she finds that she
still loves him. Richard has never forgiven himself for letting Patience get
away and is determined to win her back again.
While the writing was well-done, the story is quite bland.
Not much happens. There is one "evil" guy, but he is dispatched so
quickly, it almost didn't make sense to include him in the story. I find Ms.
Quinn's writing to be lacking in any kind of suspense of what will or will not
happen next--everything is so nice and a bit boring. I'm all for happily ever
after, but I'd prefer to read stories with a bit more meat to them.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for a fair and
honest review.
