Product Description
Product Description
Molly Conwell's life has been quite unremarkable - until she learns the startling details of her late employer Lady Woodhart's will: the sum of 30,000 pounds will be divided equally between the deceased's grandson, Viscount "Hart" Woodhart, and Molly if they wed. If one or the other fails to appear, then the present party receives the entire fortune. Molly has no intention to wed Hart, but if she inherits the money she could help her brother regain his proper place in Society. Besides, she's convinced that her prospective groom, who has always accused her of being a fortune hunter, will not present himself. As Molly embarks on a daring charade, she discovers a fierce opponent in Hart - and an even fiercer desire for this dangerously handsome man who may prove impossible to resist...

Greed will save my irresponsible brother!, Jun 10 2005
By Peppermint - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wedding Clause (Paperback)
This is a cute little romp about a couple who are thrown together by the death of an aunt. The aunt's will stipulates that the nephew and companion must marry each other to inherit. The one who does not show up to the wedding inherits nothing.
Normally, the sweet companion would have handed the money over, but she must save her brother from himself. He has become a smuggler underground to hide from the loans sharks that covered his gambling debts. As he is risking his life daily, the heroine decides to risk going up against the formidable lord in order to make him cry off so she can pay her brother's debts. The lord in question, however, is a worthy opponent, and hijinks and romance ensue...
Fortunately, this story features likable characters, as the plot (and the heroine's and her brother's repentance for their greedy ways) seems a bit sketchy, improbable and formulaic.
Enjoy!

Predictable but pleasant, Jun 16 2006
By Mary Ann Anderson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wedding Clause (Paperback)
This book was predictable but most bodice rippers are predictable; after all, if the hero and heroine didn't fall in love it wouldn't be much of a love story. This is one of those little books that you can finish in one sitting. Even though Molly and Hart started out at loggerheads, they were both very likeable characters and I wanted to see what would cause them to resolve their differences. When Molly was kidnapped and Hart was injured trying to rescue her, I thought, "Yep. That'll do it!" I see that Ms. Raleigh has written a lot of books and I have added her to my list of authors whose books I will be searching for. It wasn't "War and Peace" but I greatly enjoyed this book!

Fah, Gad, and Syrup, Jun 14 2010
By Annette Loveless "granny dalt" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wedding Clause (Paperback)
Not much more to say than I found it extremely tedious just to finish the book. Somewhere beneath all the syrup and silly language there was a hint of a plot that I found sadly lacking.
Listmania!
