Almost a Bride by Rula Sinara
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I was sent a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I was not financially compensated, and all opinions are 100 percent mine.
This is a clean, contemporary romance with nothing offensive in it. In keeping with these kinds of heartwarming romances, I was expecting a sedate, typical romance, and for the most part, that is what I got. In fact, I was planning on giving this a 4-star rating. That is, until the last one-fourth of the book!
What I appreciated so much about this book is that a suspenseful twist appeared towards the end of the book that suddenly caused the action and the stakes to skyrocket. Even though I was pretty certain everything would turn out all right in the end, I found myself invested thoroughly in this book.
Even before this exhilarating conclusion, I was sucked into the story of these characters. It made no difference to me if this book’s plot was similar to “Hallmarkesque” films I had seen. While the characters are standard, the author had a way of writing these people that engendered feelings of sympathy, understanding, and likability. This is a quick read that is perfect for any time of year.
