Can he love her…
And keep her safe?
No one in Turtleback Beach knows that veterinarian Grayson Zale is in the witness protection program—not even the woman who left him at the altar. When a joint inheritance brings Mandi Rivers back to their small seaside town, Gray can’t deny that their connection is as strong as ever. But his mysterious past remains between them; can he reveal the truth without endangering Mandi—and their future?
Almost a Bride by Rula Sinara is a sweet romantic book about trying to bring two people that are in love together.
Will Mandi ever trust Gray without him not telling her about his past?
Grayson Zale
Grayson Zale is the primary male love interest, and he is the local veterinarian. He is all about saving the marine wildlife that visits Turtleback Beach. He is into saving the sea turtles, well except for the healthy preditors. Gray is also trying to keep his heart from being hurt by Mandi again. These two have a lot of issues to work out, and the best way to do that is by trying to make Nana’s house beautiful again. Along with discussing a big secret that Gray has been keeping for the past five years.
What I like about Gray is that he is a great character. He is already trying his hardest to keep moving forward, but his past is continually affecting his present. Another thing that I like about him is that he knows that even if he can’t have the girl if he wants to keep her safe.
Mandi Rivers
Mandi Rivers is the main female love interest, and she is originally from Turtkleback but left for her master’s degree in advertising. She is overall a perplexed person, especially after she comes back home for her grandmother’s funeral and stays long enough to get her house on the market. She is confused because she doesn’t want to be like her dad but inadvertently let herself become him in ways that Mandi didn’t see until she was old enough to understand.
Mandi loves Gray and wants to make it work, but she can’t deal with Gray lying to her all the time. What I like about her is that she is a sweet person once she is in her hometown again. Another thing that I like about her is that when Mandi is with Gray, he brings out the best in her. The one thing that I don’t like is that even though she is twenty-five, she allows her father to tell her what to do.
Five Stars
Almost a Bride by Rula Sinara is a fantastic book that had me on the edge of my seat reading through the entire story. I had to know what happened next and if Mandi would ever find the truth about Gray. Granted, I won’t spoil anything, but it’s a great read. I am giving it five stars and recommending it to anyone that loves sweet romances. Not only does it have a cute vet but a guy that loves sea turtles!
