I am a huge fan of Joan Johnston and BLACKTHORNE'S BRIDE
does not disappoint. I was waiting to find out if the Duke of
Blackthorne and Josie Wentworth would be reunited and
how. And if Josie would be able to come back to America
to see her family. I love the Bitter Creek and the Mail-
Order Bride series by Johnston and how she is able to
weave her series together yet make each story stand
alone.
I look forward to further generations of
Blackthorne, Creed, and Wentworth family stories whether
they are historical or modern or some where in between. I
would definitely recommend BLACKTHORNE'S BRIDE to friends and
family.
A rogue nobleman, a rescued lady, and revenge undone by romance all play a part in New York Times bestselling author Joan Johnston’s irresistible novel of best-laid plots, delicious deception, and unexpected passion. Two years have passed since Josie Wentworth was bought from the Sioux for a gold watch and whisked back to England by Marcus Wharton, the Duke of Blackthorne. When Marcus breaks his promise to return Josie to America, she ends up as a maid in the home of his charming but neglected nephews. Once Josie’s long-lost family finds her, however, the suddenly wealthy heiress sets out to save the two boys from their indifferent uncle—and teach the duke a lesson in honor. Learning that Marcus is seeking a rich American bride to save his estate, Josie plots to catch his eye—certain he’ll never recognize the beauty she’s become as the ragged captive he rescued. But Josie doesn’t wager on her marital charade taking a tender turn, as the nobleman she’s despised for years proves to be a very different man than she’s imagined. And there’s no denying his passionate caresses, as she falls deeper under the spell of a husband determined to claim her heart.
