Embrace the Night door Amanda Ashley
I bought this at a thrift shop bc I love the cover and the step-back. After about 40 pages it was obvious the book isn't going to work for me so I'm moving on.
I liked this book, but it seemed pretty abrupt to me. The story is cruising along then, bam, suddenly the girl who was in love and wanting to marry one man is in love and marrying another. Then, bam, out of nowhere, Marty and Ridge are in love and engaged. I just felt like I missed part of the story somewhere. It's a good book, though, and I've added Baker's other books to my to-read list.
This is not your typical romance novel. I love reading authors who aren't afraid to mess with the "formula"! It *is* a HEA, it just takes a different route to get there.
