There’s only one reason this bride won’t walk down the aisle…and he’s back! A captivating Christmas romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Caitlin Crews.

She gave him her innocence.
Can he win her back by Christmas?

Certain that she will never love again, Timoney George has agreed to a convenient marriage. If she can’t recapture the hot, all-consuming chemistry she discovered with Crete Asgar, she might as well have cold security.

Crete tried to forget Timoney, but the idea of another man possessing her is intolerable. With just twelve hours until she walks down the aisle, Crete steals her back. And now he has the night before Christmas to prove to her—and himself—that he won’t break her heart all over again…

From Harlequin Presents: Escape to exotic locations where passion knows no bounds.

Therapy session

Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2021

First, the plain speaking between the main characters was good. I enjoyed that. However, the dialogue was sparse. Most of the book the characters would say one sentence then you'd have to wade through the thought life of the characters which was repeated over and over. It felt like one long therapy session with a little story thrown in. This did not have good back and forth, with artfully inverted thoughts, dialogue. I wouldn't say not read it but be prepared for a Dr. Phil session. Most books have an issue for characters to resolve but as a reader I want more interaction between characters then the stop and go dialogue.

Light and love

Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2021

I was in suspense. The beginning had me hoping that Crete would make everything right. Poor Timoney. The pain he put her through, but she was so strong. He never knew what hit him. The power of love.

Not my cup of tea

Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2021

So this review is hard for me to write for a few reasons, and the most important one is that I just couldn't connect with the characters. I've had that issue before as I'm sure many have but this time it made the book just drag for me.

Timoney and Crete have a past, one in which she professed her love to him and he basically threw her out of the home they shared for six months, now she is engaged to be married to someone else and Crete wants her back. This story takes place in roughly the span of one day. Crete shows up at Timoney's home on Christmas Eve and tells her she won't be marrying the guy her Uncle has arraigned for her to marry the next morning. Ugghhh, I'm not sure what else to say because this is supposed to be an Uplifting Romance and I didn't see it that way. Timoney's parents passed away and she is left with her Uncle who doesn't want anything to do with her and despises that he has to spend his money on her but she has a trust fund that she will get once she reaches a certain age so why wasn't there provisions for a caregiver to keep her in the life she was accustomed to? Why was she removed from her private school when she should have been able to stay there? Why was her Uncle arraigning a marriage for her when this isn't a historical romance or one in which arraigned marriages are a custom? So many things just didn't make sense to me, could I overlook them yes if it was just one or two but when it's numerous things with both the Heroine and the Hero then it just becomes to much.

I will say that I am in the minority with my rating of this book so check it out maybe you'll like it more than I did....and I hope you do.

Happy Reading!!!

A fiery romance for the festive season

Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2021

Sizzling with sexual tension, THE BRIDE HE STOLE FOR CHRISTMAS is a fiery romance with characters that will keep you interested from beginning to end.

It's the night before Timoney George's wedding and while this should be the happiest time of her life, it is anything but. After Timoney's beloved parents died, she moved away from her controlling uncle and threw herself into city life where she met Crete Asgar, the only man she ever loved. But when he unceremoniously dumped her from his life six months ago, Timoney found herself back in her ancestral childhood home with her uncle organising an arranged marriage for her. With her heart broken she doesn't see the point in putting up a fight and has agreed to the marriage. After all, her heart could not possibly break any more than it already has, and at least with this marriage of convenience, she will have some security. But she knows that she will never love again.
Crete doesn't understand love and family, having grown up being treated badly by those who should have cherished him. But he sees his hard edges and brutal honesty as a positive, not a negative. So when Timoney confessed her love for him many months ago, he did what he always does and ended it. But something about Timoney has haunted him ever since and when he discovers that she is about to be married to some crotchety older man, he cannot stand it. He must make her see sense, and stealing her away soon becomes the only option. But will Crete finally be able to love her the way she has always loved him? Or will he hurt her even more by ending it all over again?

With plenty of chemistry and enjoyable characters, I easily became hooked on THE BRIDE HE STOLE FOR CHRISTMAS by Caitlin Crews, and finished it in one sitting. Timoney was an interesting character who had changed since she had her heart broken by Crete, and it was refreshing to see her stand up to Crete and recognise that she loved him but didn't need to roll over and do what he wanted all of the time. And Crete is an alpha male character who was used to being obeyed, so learning more about him and watching him understand Timoney better, and recognise his true feelings for her was delightful.

THE BRIDE HE STOLE FOR CHRISTMAS by Caitlin Crews is a searing hot story about passion and letting love in, and I look forward to more from this author.
