Come the Spring by Julie Garwood
1.0
I didn't like how it took her half the book just to fully set the scene, and then she tried to squeeze 2 mediocre, unbelievable romances into about 1/4 of the book.
And her male characters have definitely declined. Julie Garwood, what happened?? When did your big strong, stubborn, rude men turn into frilly little puppies?
In the Highlander books, it took the female protagonist being in some sort of life threatening danger for the guy to finally realize he loves her as he races to save her. And that's after a decently long period of time. The guy is also rude and inconsiderate and unemotional, but the woman sees right past it and loves him anyway.
What does she do in Come the Spring? He decides he loves her after about 3 days and has sex with her, calling her all sorts of things such as "pretty" "sweet heart" "baby" etc. What in the world happened to you??? I want more stories with the Highlanders.
I was tempted numerous times to just put down this disappointing book and move on to my newest Stephanie Plum novel
