Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It's almost just like another one of her books that I read..
Review: but isn't all of her books almost alike? The Relucant Husband is about Frankie and Santino Vitale. Frankie is living in London running a tourist agency that has fallen on hard times. Since this is the case she has to go to back to Sardinia where she grew up to get six Villa's from the owner. What Frankie doesn't know is that the owner is her husband Santino but Frankie doesn't know that Santino is still her husband because she believes she had gotten an anullment five years ago. What does Santino want? Three weeks with his wife and then they will part ways and file for divorce. What Santino doesn't count on is falling in love with his wife all over again.
If I could I would have given this book three in a half stars. The reason I gave it only three is because I have read better books from Lynne Graham that I have given four stars.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: the reluctant husband
Review: her books are all the same, but you don't notice it until after u finish because the story is somewhat mesmerizing when u read it that u don't think about anything else but the story itself. other than that, i find her heroine too weak and i'm still waiting for her to write about a female who has more self-esteem and humor and love of life instead of always fearing the hero, worrying about everything and running away from STUFF!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprise or not?
Review: I adore Lynne Graham, but for some reason, those who have read her other books probably have come to the same conclusion about her works--they are good, but they are always about this pretty young female and this rich, gorgeous man that falls in love with the female. Basiclly, they either don't realize that they love each other until it is a bit late, or they come to wrong conclusions at the beginning of the story; and b/c of some major misunderstandings, they end up hurting each other. I love Lynne Graham's men, but sometimes, they make me want to slap them around for bullying the females and treating them as inferior or weak. My favorite one of her books is "The Unfaithful Wife", but I'm pretty sure that she can come up with better ones in the future.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: good for the formula
Review: It is all very extreme with Lynne Graham. Full-blooded passion, full-blooded scenes. No milquetoast in the book at all.

However, like most British Harlequins, the guy verges on emotional assault and the heroine barely matches it or overlooks it. If you can suspend your urge to tell Francesca that she should tell him and his attitude to take a hike, it's a satisfying read.

Still, I prefer Lynne Graham's Bond of Hatred, all told.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is a super read with a great hero and heroine.
Review: Lynne Graham is my favorite author. I have read all her books, and The Reluctant Husband is one of my favorite. Santino and Francesca are a great couple. There is wonderful chemistry, memorable dialogue, and intense passionate scenes (this is true of all her books!). As always, the hero is tall, dark, rich, and super gorgeous! I eagerly await her newest release.
