Today's post is on I Thee Wed by Celeste Bradley. It is the fourth in her Wicked Worthingtons Series but you do not have to have read the first three to understand and enjoy the story. It is 335 pages long and is published by Signet Select. The cover has main female character on it looking at the reader. The intended reader is someone who likes romance. There is mild foul language, sex, and no violence in this book. The story is told from the third person close of different characters moving as the story does. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the back of the book- Intelligent and driven, Orion Worthington aspired to be like his mentor, the acclaimed scientist Sir Geoffrey Blayne. Logically, Sir Geoffrey’s daughter would be Orion’s perfect match. So why can’t he keep his mind off the unruly girl who works in Sir Geoffrey’s lab?
Orphaned fire-cracker Francesca Penrose hopes that London is modern enough to accept her brilliant mind despite her womanhood. But she can’t help noticing Orion’s mind...or his body.
So they decide to run an experiment: if they give in to their passions, their attraction will simply fizzle out, with no impact on their hearts...right?
Review- This is a fun and sweet love story. Francesca is looking for a family to love and Orion is looking for respect as a scientist. Together they cause trouble and they are fun to read about. Bradley creates a wonderful family in the Worthingtons. They are interesting, they do things, and they are not just background for the love story. I really liked the scenes with the whole family in them. Chessa is a confident woman when she decides to make her move and while Orion can be a little slow with her, he does get the idea soon enough. Of course there has to be complications between them and their happy ever after but once Chessa sets her mind on something nothing will stop her. I was pulling for Orion and Chessa and I had a very good time reading this book.
I give this volume Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I borrowed this book from my local library.
