Bed Of Roses

by Nora Roberts

Penguin Group USA, Inc | October 27, 2009 | Trade Paperback

Love blooms in the second novel in Nora Roberts''s celebrated Bride Quartet series.

As little girls MacKensie, Emma, Laurel, and Parker spent hours acting out their perfect make believe "I do" moments. Years later their fantasies become reality when they start their own wedding planning company to make every woman''s dream day come true. With perfect flowers, delicious desserts, and joyful moments captured on film, Nora Roberts''s Bride Quartet shares each woman''s emotionally magical journey to romance.

In Bed of Roses, florist Emma Grant is finding career success with her friends at Vows wedding planning company, and her love life appears to be thriving. Though men swarm around her, she still hasn''t found Mr. Right. And the last place she''s looking is right under her nose.

But that''s just where Jack Cooke is. He''s so close to the women of Vows that he''s practically family, but the architect has begun to admit to himself that his feelings for Emma have developed into much more than friendship. When Emma returns his passion-kiss for blistering kiss-they must trust in their history...and in their hearts.

    Even Better Than The First!

    BED OF ROSES by Nora Roberts

    I loved this book!! There wasn't anything that I didn't like. Emma is so sweet and perfect, and a pure romantic, and Jack is such a typical man's man, but in a good way, and darn sexy and sweet, too. Sigh. They are so freakin' cute. All the regular characters who showed up in Book #1 that were back I just adored them - all of them! Can I just say that I can't be the only one who was excited over Triad's appearance, am I right? :) I think I like this one even better than Book #1, and that one was awesome. I am a sucker for flowers, but that in no way influenced my choice. Really. ;) I thought Emma and Jack's relationship was so sweet and sexy and just...everything! I loved BED OF ROSES so much! *sigh* Nora Robert's knows how to do a romance, that is for certain, so yet another point to her in my books. I can't wait to read Book #3; I have a feeling I know who Laurel will end up with...and Parker, too! ;) And if I'm right, then, yay! Awesome first half to this quartet. Highly, highly recommended! :)

    P.S. - I hope I wasn't the only one who had the Bon Jovi song 'Bed of Roses' stuck in my head the whole time I was reading this, lol. :)

    Overall Opinion: A+ (or better!)

    The second book makes you just love the characters and the interaction between the friends/business partners and the friends and clients. Just love the books

    After the first book in this quartet, I was really looking forward to this and when I bought it I went straight home to devour it like I've been doing with Nora Roberts novels for over 10 years now. Now, the first ¾ of the book, I would give it about 3 stars, it wasn't bad but it wasn't awesome. However, I hated the way the dramatic tension was carried out at the end by all characters involved and was written in such a way as COMPLETELY CRAZY behavior by the protagonist was perceived as being completely appropriate. By the time I put the book down, after forcing myself to finish it, I couldn't stand the main character and was not rooting for her in the least, in fact I was rooting for the male lead to come to his senses and run away. Additionally, the overbearing behavior of one of the other characters, who will be the lead in one of the future books, made me greatly dislike her as well. This series, which started out promising for me, will not be one that I will continue to read.

    The second of four books is as good as the first. It also set it up for books three and four.
