Summary: HORRENDOUS Repetition
Review: I read romance novels. I love romances, but good Lord, this woman needs a thesaurus! The same descriptive words are used OVER and OVER again. After 100 pages, I thought if I read "Nick mockingly said" one more time I would burn the book. I did read it again, but the book did not go up in flames.

The storyline however is very good. I enjoyed the premise, and the love scenes were well done. This is the ONLY reason this book gets 2 stars instead of 1.

Summary: HORRENDOUS Repetition
Review: Often in a review a refer to the cat-and-mouse game between males and females. They both love each other, but refuse to admit it. This book has that, but with a twist. In, To Mend A Marriage, Gemini and Nick are married in name only. Before their marriage Nick was engaged to Gemini's twin and Gemini was dating Nick's brother. However, when Nick and Gemini discovered that there siblings were involved with each other--Nick and Gemini decided to marry each other and never speak to their siblings again. It worked for fourteen months until Gemini's sister dumps her baby on Gem's doorstep. That is where the story begins. The story itself is okay and it could probably have been written without the baby. I think that the baby is just supposed to add some interest. I have to admit that the only thing that really hurt this story was the insecurity of Gemini and Nick. It got to the point that I was disgusted with the both of them. There insecurity totally consumes the story and I think that it really hurts it. Otherwise the basic concept of these two people trying to make there marriage be in more than name only and their reasons for getting married in the first place make for a interesting read.
