Summary: Hated The Ending!
Review: Truly enjoyed first two books and was looking forward to reading this last book in the trilogy. The story seemed to drag a bit. I was very disappointed in the ending.

Summary: Least likely to read over again
Review: Unfortunately, other than the well-crafted writing, the story itself was quite unrealistic and not convincing. I felt the characters were twenty-first century people dressed in costumes. They just did things for the sake of it, like play chess on the whim of the moment. There was no conscience on Olivia's part, other than a blocked memory of abuse. In those days, I would think people had more ethics than what the story leads you to believe.The story was a cross between a fantasy and a single woman's worst nightmare. I was hoping that as I read more, that something good will happen in the story. It just got worse.

Summary: Pretty good book
Review: Yeah, the title is misleading, but I really enjoyed this book. While the ending was a little different than we're used to, I liked it, because it was unusual and not everyone gets married.

Summary: Read the whole series....
Review: Years ago I read The Silver Rose by Jane Feather and hated it. I remember very cruel characters and a weak, downtrodden hero. I saw Feather had just released a new hardcover so I thought I'd give her one more try. Well, of course, I had stumbled upon the conclusion of a trilogy. Still - the book intrigued me and I really liked the characters: Olivia was quirky but likeable and Anthony (with his crooked grin and great sense of romance - didn't you love the beach scene?) was charming and sexy. But then I realized I really needed more background on the villain, Brian, and the other two women, Portia and Phoebe. So I gobbled up the Hostage Bride (loved it!) and the Accidental Bride (so-so) and then finished the Least Likely Bride. Read them in order - they'll make more sense- and I'm sure you'll enjoy the whole series. Jane Feather has redeemed herself in my eyes.
