shmsy 's review for:
Reining Her In
by Katie Ashley
This should have been a super angsty second chance romance. He jilts her at the alter, can't get anymore angsty then that! Some years later he marries someone else and has a child and then some years later, when he's single, wants to get back together with the h when she goes back to her hometown.
Now to clear something up. This guy wasn't a cheater, not sure where some reviewers get that from. He may be douchey but not a cheater. My disappointment with this was the pacing and the weak efforts to redeem the H. She's moved on to other realtionships but never committment. When she moves back home this went from hating him to some weeks later forgiving him and within two days, sexing him up. Those last 2 stages were just whiplash fast. Forgiveness isn't normally so convenient. And when she does forgive him, she's all over him. Made me question her stability. Of course then its supposed to be tied up in a neat bow by thinking his jilting her was really so she could truly appreciate the bounty that was him. That last line made me consider a 1* rating. Please authors, make the H as douchey as you like but then work to make the reconciliation believable without making the heroine stupid.
