Book Review of Midnight Bride (Zebra Historical)

Midnight Bride (Zebra Historical)
reviewed on


There is some amusement in the melodramatic language and the moron characters. The heroine desperately needed to be in an After School Special on Why We Do Not Sleep with Dangerous Men Who Promise, "No, Really, Babe, You're Different from All the Rest." Honestly, I was hoping she would marry her gay best friend the rich dandy and they would spend the last half of the book looking for the perfect man to be the filling in their love sandwich, but sadly, it was not to be. Instead (spoiler alert!) she marries her twoo wuv halfway through and the rest of the book is quite predictable: Girl: "I neeeeeed to beeeee with yooooou!" Boy: "Go home! Sit! Stay! Good girl! Nononono! Bad girl!" Together: "Our looove is sooooo perfect even though we keep lying to each other!" Insert random history lessons, lather, rinse, repeat. The overdramatic language is fun, though.
