Prince Charming
Only her beloved grandmother, Lady Esther, knew how devastated Taylor Stapleton had been when her fiancé eloped with Taylor's cousin. Now dear Esther -- one of London's richest and most formidable matriarchs -- lies dying. But first she was going to help Taylor pull off the scam of the season.
To escape becoming a ward of her unscrupulous uncle, Taylor would wed Lucas Ross, a rugged American rancher. Lady Esther's money would enable Ross to return home to Montana. Taylor had her own urgent reason to go to America...a precious legacy she hadn't revealed to Ross, for they had agreed to part ways once they reached Boston. But as her handsome new husband spoke of life in Montana, Taylor began planning a new future. To Taylor, the wide-open spaces of Montana sounded like paradise....

Aceasta carte a fost pentru mine o adevarata surpriza,si tin sa mentionez ca a fost una foarte placuta.Nu toate cartile scrise de Julie Garwood se ridica la un standard asa de inalt de perfectiune,dar aceasta pot spune ca este cea mai buna carte scrisa de ea, pe care eu am citit-o.
Mi-a plact enorm din toate aspectele posibile.
Personajele sunt adorabile,poveste in sine este scrisa meticulos,iar aventura si suspansul sunt si ele prezente inca de la primele pagini.
Poveste de dragoste dintre Taylor si Lucas este una asa de emotionanta si plina de erotism , incat pot spune ca de mult nu am fost asa de impresionata.Loialitatea si devotamentul de care Taylor le are fata de nepoatele ei,si nu numai,m-au facut sa o indragesc inca de la inceputul cartii.
Dialogurile si replicile sunt spirituale,foarte bine scrise,iar aventurile prin care protagonistii sunt nevoiti sa treaca pentru a ajunge in America , si pentu a salva cele doua gemene in varsta de doi ani,au fost deliciul acestei carti.
Puteti sa-mi spuneti ce vreti,stiu ca este o carte historical-romance,si ca multi considera ca poveste de iubire este cel mai importanta aspect,dar din puctul meu de vedere , o carte nu este reusita decat atunci cand aventura si suspansul sunt la cel mai inalt nivel.
A fost o adevarata placere sa citesc aceasta carte,si tocmai de aceea acrd un puctaj maxim.

Ca de obicei autoarea mea preferată m-a incantat și făcut dependenta de aceasta carte pe care abia puteam sa o las din mână și cum prindeam puțin timp liber chiar și un minut doua, repede repede continuam lectura. Pentru mine asta înseamnă o carte perfecta. Sa rad, sa trăiesc alături de personaje în suspans, sa simt tot felul de emoții, sa visez într-una și sa regret ca s-a terminat. Jullie Garwood, I love your books! Each and everyone!!!
