3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable but not her best 17 Jan 2004
By josie82 TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Kiss the Bride is the story of Emma Van Court, a young lady who elopes with Stuart Chesterton, with whom she has had a long time infatuation. Despite both families being against the match Emma and Stuart marry and head for Scotland where the pair live as an impoverished curate and his wife in the small village of Faires, Shetland. When Stuart dies, his cousin, James Marbury, Earl of Denham, who was the most vocal against the marriage, comes to Scotland to fetch Stuart's body home, not realising that Emma would still be there. The pair have to face up to their feelings for one another while dealing with many interesting problems in the village.

This book was a very enjoyable read and although not a great book like some of Ms Cabot's others, it is still a good book and well written.
The conflict between the characters is believable as is their inability to voice their true feelings for each other when they become aware of them. As well as the interesting twists to the story there are various amusing and colourful secondary characters that add to, and bring life to the story.

However, unlike Ms Cabot's other books I found that this one tended to be much slower paced and the love scenes not up to their usual high standard which detracted from the book somewhat.
Another point which irritated me greatly was that throughout the story they refer to Shetland as being in the Hebrides. It is only a minor point but it is one which had me cringing whenever it was mentioned.

Despite this I would still recommend this novel as it is a very good story with likeable characters and a different plot than the usual regency romance. I would also highly recommend other books by this same author especially Educating Caroline and She Went All The Way which are both very enjoyable reads.

5.0 out of 5 stars S Stars!!! Brilliance is an understatement! 6 Dec 2008
By dream_shop_world
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Patricia cabot, now known as 'Meg Cabot' has done a brilliant job!

This was the second of her books under the pen name Patricia Cabot, which I read and enjoyed every page. Unlike her adult books such as the Queen of Babble series, this differs as it contains intense romantic scenes - which are very well written.

The story is about Emma who elopes with the male protaganist's cousin, Stuart, to the Scottish highlands. Staurt is a bore while James you will certainly love! James is the male protaganist, an Earl, who goes up from London to Scotland to retrieve Stuart's body after he dies. He surprisingly finds Emma there as he assumed that she was back in London.

Through the book, Cabot takes the reader on a journey of secrets, apprehension, confusion, exasperation, romance and love. The reader (well I), came to adore James's character as he cares so much for Emma. And Emma is an endearing character as the reader can identify with her aspirations.

This book has it all! Buy and enjoy!

3.0 out of 5 stars Beware, this is Meg cabot but not as you know her! 25 Aug 2008
By N. Preskey
Format:Mass Market Paperback
If you have realised that yes, this is a Meg cabot book then be warned it is not like her other recent titles and is definitely not for younger audiences. Many scenes are quite explicit, much more than her recent adult books and particularly more than her teenage fiction. This book also lacks the humour of many of Cabot's other works.

Putting what we know about Meg Cabot aside, this is quite well written and plotted but maybe a little predictable. The main character, Emma is definitely likeable and many people will be able to identify with her, even though this is set in the past.

Overall, you will probably enjoy this, if you are looking for a romance novel, rather than chick lit.
