so-so1973. This is my least favorite of #thegreatBetty that I have read so far. The plot setup is weird with 22 yo nurse‘s grandfather making a 40 yo dr her guardian who has to consent to her marrying before 30 to protect her from gold diggers. They spend the entire book being mean to one another & disliking each other but at the end he says I‘ve loved you since right after grandfather died. 🙄 #romantsy #harlequin #theuncrushablejerseydress
pick1969. I loved the heroine, her family & pets. There is a great surgery under pressure scene. I did not love the rich Dutch doctor in this one. There were some very odd shenanigans as to why it took so long for him to declare himself. There were also some things with side characters that were probably socially acceptable in 1969 but which squeeved me out. #harlequin #romantsy #thegreatbetty #theuncrushablejerseydress
pick1971 I have mixed feelings about this. This is possibly the youngest hero in the Neels canon & I love the beginning section of the book. The other woman Marcia makes me think of Miranda Lambert‘s Only Prettier. Bless her heart. But there is a scene where he shakes her by the shoulders so her teeth rattle...I am definitely not Team Ivo. #romantsy #harlequin #thegreatbetty #theuncrushablejerseydress
