Book #46 Bed of Roses by Nora Roberts

This is the second book in the Bride Quartet series, and I really enjoyed this one as well. Light hearted love story that ended just right. However, I really enjoyed the independence, perseverance, and back-bone of the main character Emma. She refused to compromise what she was looking for in a life-long partner. She refused to settle for less than she deserved. Although she was a romantic and a bit old fashioned in what she wanted in a husband, she demonstrates that the modern, independent woman can have it all and doesn't have to give up some important part of herself to get the right fit in a mate. Very good book, and I look forward to reading the third book in the series and seeing how Laurel finds love.
