REESE’S BRIDE, the second book in the BRIDE series, is filled with passion and intrigue. Kat Martin brings forth a classic tale of betrayal and forgiveness with a fresh spin that is sure to pull at the heart strings. The way she communicates the effects of making bad decisions in life and the struggles the couple must go through to overcome them are quite moving. It was great to get another glimpse into Royal and Lillie’s life as well. I have been captivated by the Dewar brothers and so look forward to Rule’s story.
