A Bride for the Season by Jennifer Delamere

3.0

A Bride for the Season was an interesting book, to be sure. It was sweet and charming with just a touch of the unexpected. I was pleasantly surprised by the events that occurred. James, Lucinda, Mr. Hibbitt, and Emily sure kept things lively.

James: This character seemed to be a gentleman rogue of sorts, at least by what could be gathered from his history. He was charming, passionate, and adventurous. He did not conform to society's standards, but marched to his own tune. He had a strong sense of family despite having lost so much.

Lucinda: This character was so refreshing. I loved her! She had her own mind and was not afraid to speak it. Although women of that period were expected to serve in a set role, I liked that she was so unique and peculiar in her role. She was passionate about what she was passionate about, and she didn't make any excuses for it.

Mr. Hibbitt: This character was so funny to me. He seemed passive initially, but as the story went on, I realized that he actually had his own voice. He had a streak if something that made me like him. With that said, he needed to stand up to his mother more. Seriously! He said he was 33. Umm...yea.

Emily: This character was a bit fluffy to me. She lacked depth. She was irritating, childish, manipulative and quite selfish. I suppose, at the end of the day, she served her purpose.

The love square: Aha! This was quite something. I wondered how the author was going to work this all out. The social stigma of such an occurrence would not have gone as smoothly as all this, but it made for a humorous tale.
