Relation In Pursuance Of Books Bed of Roses (Bride Quartet #2)
5 SOLID STARS!My cheeks are still damp from my tears as I’m writing this review. Oh my heart, this was such a beautiful story!
It’s been a while since I read Nora Roberts’s contemporary romance novel, and Bed of Roses didn’t disappoint. I knew I would love this book, and I was right. Yes, I did love it! Everything about it. This was exactly what I want from my read!
I loved NR’s excellent writing.
I loved this very simple yet well-knit plot.
I loved both main and secondary characters.
I loved the romance between Jack and Emma.
I loved the true friendship between these four women.
I loved the drama and the groveling.
I loved the ending… very, very beautiful!
What surprised me the most about this book was how wonderful Emma is! As a character, she won me over completely. If I were a man, I would undoubtedly marry this woman. She’s beautiful inside and out, so loving, thoughtful, caring, kind, reasonable, open-hearted, hard-working, clever, and reliable. She comes from a warm and loving family. She used to be a co-captain of girls’ soccer team. She is also a good cook. What more can a man ask for?!
Bed of Roses is the second installment in Bride Quartet series. You can read it as a standalone, but it would be better to read the books in order they were written.
All in all, this was a very beautiful, heartwarming, and breathtakingly romantic story which you will definitely enjoy. A great read, indeed!
Loved it!

“The little things, Emma. The gestures, the moments. And the big. I let him see my heart. I gave it to him, even when I believed he couldn’t or wouldn’t take it. I gave it anyway—a gift. Even if he broke it. I was very brave. Love is very brave.”
“I’m dancing with you.” He brought the hand he held to his lips. “In the garden, in the moonlight.”
Her heart shuddered, swelled. And all the cracks filled.

Way too much of that going on. Loved Jack and Emma though...great couple.
Short Review: Bed of Roses, is the second book in Nora Roberts Bride Quartet series. However, those of you who have not read the first book, Vision in White, can read the second book with out missing a step. Its a solid book with well developed characters and if you always buy every book that Nora Roberts writes Im not writing this review for you. If however, youre a romance reader, or just a reader looking for a book to read, perhaps this review is for you. I liked this book. Am I glad I read
Wow, I totally forgot how much I disliked the heroine in book #2 until my re-read. Oh Emma, so perfect but a total jerk (I thought) Emma. Who even though she keeps telling her love interest (Jack) things are fine, throws a fit when he doesn't treat her like his girlfriend. And I ended up loathing the other characters in this book who decided that well they couldn't be friends with Jack anymore since Emma was so hurt. What are you? Teenagers? Who does mess like this? I actually booed when the HEA
This book is not as good as the first one of the series. But, I have enjoyed the love story of Emma and Jack.
Ever felt left out? I felt that way when I tried reading Vision in White back in May of this year, and I felt that way again trying to read its successor, Bed of Roses. I attempted to read this about two months ago after having finished and disliked the first book in this series. Normally I would drop a series after disliking the first installment to the degree that I did with Vision in White, but since I own the first, second, and fourth installments in this series I thought I'd give it another
I liked this so, so much but then the last couple of chapters sort of melted into a big puddle of drama, and I couldn't really stomach half of that. Because while I of course didn't agree with Jack, I also thought Emma and the entire gang overreacted. Jack was right in saying that he didn't cheat on her or slap her around or God knows what, but they were all acting like he'd literally stabbed her or something. Parker telling Jack "She's ready to talk to you, so I'm ready to let you talk to her."
