Passion and Lust,
By Marilyn Shoemaker (Seattle, Washington) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Mancini Marriage Bargain (Modern Romance) (Paperback)
When I read the first book in Trish Morey's series, Stolen by the Sheikh, well I was hooked. However, I knew that the "other side of the story" would be revealed in The Mancini Marriage Bargain.In the first book one learns that loss of both life and marriage happened due to a business deal between father's that "went sour". Sheikh Khaled wanted revenge for the death of his parents and for being stood up at the altar in Stolen by the Sheikh. In this book, Mancini Marriage, one learns the "other side" of the story. Paolo marries Helene 12 years earlier to save her from an arranged marriage. They live apart all of these years and when Paolo is the object of revenge and looses his current companion to the Sheikh who wants revenge; in the end he contacts his "wife on paper" for a divorce. From that very moment, the story begins and takes the reader on a high speed roller coaster. Lack of communication and misunderstandings and an extreme sensual pull between the main characters Helene and Paolo plus the knowledge of a pregnancy, complicate everything. This is a wonderful story, one not to be missed and I would suggest tissues for your tears. Book Summary: "It's a bit late to start desiring a woman ten minutes before you divorce her...." He'd wed her to save her from a forced marriage to another man. Twelve years later, Paolo Mancini's back to tell his wife, beautiful Helene Grainger, they can divorce at last. But Paolo is still the passionate and gorgeous Italian whom Helene married. When they are reunited for one last night, Paolo realizes what he's been missing - and decides that he cannot let her go!

Again,
By Sophie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Mancini Marriage Bargain (The Arranged Brides) (Kindle Edition)
out of step w/ other reviewers. I thought it was gross that the Hero had a years-long relationship w/ another woman, loving her deeply but offering nothing. That's because - Surprise! - he was married to the heroine. Secretly. As soon as the Other, Beloved, Woman was removed from the scene (cause she's abducted by a sheikh in another book), Hero turns up at Heroine's doorstep. She melts at his feet, has sex w/ him like there's no tomorrow, then he leaves divorce papers on her table?Even though the secret marriage was to protect Heroine from said sheikh...Ick. No real love in either of these books, except that between the Hero in this one & the abducted bride in the other. In this book, "discovering" that you've loved each other all along - while falling in love w/ other women, having affairs, whatever - is just totally unbelievable and unenjoyable to me. Could not suspend disbelief on any level to engage w/ these characters.

A Romance Junkie,
By Esa Soy "Mady" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Mancini Marriage Bargain (The Arranged Brides) (Kindle Edition)
This was a really good story, and I enjoyed it very much and I wish I had read the Sheiks stolen bride first. Paolo was just gorgeous and to save his school mate from an arranged marriage, he married her himself. Helene was in love with Paolo but never told him so twelve years pass and the sheik finally marries so the threat is over. Now Paolo shows up at her doorstep with divorce papers. They go through this emotional roller coaster ride and the ending is very good. I recommend it highly.

"Trish Morey's newest release, THE MANCINI MARRIAGE BARGAIN is a highly entertaining novel which sports deep characterization, an intense plot interwoven with plenty of sizzling passion and crisp dialogue. It's an exciting yet emotional book and very difficult to put down once you start reading.
