The Bride

"I have read this and The Wedding (also by Garwood) so many times! I have had them for at least 10 years and still love reading them. They take place in the Highlands of Scotland and have strong women leading with their men. I am an absolute hopeless romantic and immediately fell in love. There is a great mix of humor love and passion."

"Read this when you could use a dreamy romance that’s straightforward and uncomplicated. I read this first in ‘97 as a teen and it’s still one of my favorite love stories ever. No long drawn out angst of missed chances, playing games, or things unspoken—I hate those. Highland man sees a woman, wants her, wins her, turns out she wants him too, they fall in love and build their lives towards each other. Epic setting. Really engaging and interesting story. Especially that Jamie is a vibrant, creative, talented, strong and brazen female lead—great to read. Funny moments too. And Alex is, ooh, definitely the kind of alpha male you just ‘want’. And he falls in love, hard, and doesn’t fight or hide it—so sexy. Definite Outlander vibes. It just works. I read it once a year. Where is the movie already?! ☺️"

"Definitely a fave❤️"

"It was a great book. "

"I love all of Julie Garwood’s books. This “series” is my absolute favourite. I am a super fan of instalove. These books have that in spades. #instalove #historicalromance "

"I have read all but one Garwood. I really liked her modern ones too. I’m reading the Court of Thorn and Roses trilogy right now. It’s my first foray into fantasy of this sort and I am really loving it! What books do you love?"
