A Husband for Margaret

Product Description


This review is from: A Husband for Margaret (Kindle Edition)



This was a cute and heart-warming story of a woman, Margaret, who advertises for a husband and ends up with a ready-made family.



The characters were interesting but one dimensional. The book had an old fashioned feel to it and I would probably rate it a 3.5 if I could. It has promise.

There was conflict in the book but at times it seemed contrived and there sometimes was not enough detail about the struggle to become a family unit but others may feel diffently. Although I chuckled at the unique way Margaret got rid of her competition. She's a smart cookie. Kudos to the author for creating such a character.

My big gripe is how new characters were introduced, out of thin air without any supporting context. For example, in the beginning of the book Pete and Debra were mentioned by name but not explained. I was like, who? It was a cold splash of water and interrupted the flow of the book. I kept wondering if I missed an introduction or conversation somewhere. But, we find out who Pete and Debra are much later in the book(and not a minute before). Additionally, there was interaction with a farmhand that seemed to come out of nowhere and had me scratching my head for context -I didn't understand why Margaret and Jessica made the comments they did. If the author re-edits the book, they may want to consider putting in qualifiers when they first mention these characters, to lessen confusion.

Since this book used to be combined with another story, I can only assume the other story - A Bride for Tom - should be read before this book. It may explain some of the confusion I had.
