A History Nut's Romantic State of Mind
Hello Ms. Balogh, always a pleasure. This is a re-read for me. I read the Bedwyn saga years ago. I don't think I loved them but I did not dislike them either. I also seem to remember a great deal of them. Slightly married is the story of the second son, Aiden, and his wife, Eve, in a marraige of con...

What a wonderful book. It was so well narrated, with very likeable characters. I cannot say it was perfect... there were times where I wanted to slap at Aidan, but the story is so plausible and their love so sweet I was rooting for them since the very beginning.The marriage of convenience is really ...

OMG, this was so stupid. First, it's one of those "marriage of convenience" stories set in Regency England with the most contrived device I've seen in romance. Unless the heroine, Eve, marries within four days, she will lose her inheritance and her estate--turning out her unemployable servants as we...

Arghh. This couple tortured each other to the Very Last Minute. Not sure quite that much obtuseness was necessary but I still really liked the book.

I truly enjoyed this book from death to marriage to consummation to heartache and back to falling in love. Aiden was a stoic hero with a sense of humor I loved And eve was strong n courageous with a huge heart

So, overall a good read. Slightly predictable, but it had some refreshing nuances. Like the hero was not so beautiful that the reader throws up in their mouth! The heroine was not dirt poor. They did not fall in love, lust, etc at first meeting. A good start to a series. On to book 2.

This was a perfectly serviceable romance. The romance was sweet, the hero and heroine believable, and the supporting characters delightful. I took off two stars for one reason - the central conflict in the story is that the lovebirds never actually speak to one another. Eve is also a bit too perf...

The Bedwyn Saga has always been a favorite of mine, and this is the book that started it all. Balogh's oblique feints past such familiar romance tropes seem obvious to me now... but I think back in the day, new to romance and new to this series, SLIGHTLY MARRIED was the perfect balance of historica...
