Cover Description:

Delilah cannot bear to watch as her twin sister Deborah marries Hamish Baillie, Fourth Earl of Blackwood. Not only because she knows that her conniving sister has manipulated the poor man into marriage, but also because she has been in love with the Earl since she first set eyes on him …

Delilah is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to save Hamish from a life of unhappiness – but will her plan work, or will she have to accept that she is no match for her twin’s scheming ways?

Read on for my thoughts on Marry For Love.  No true spoilers, promise.

It’s difficult enough to watch the man you love marry another woman – it’s even worse when the woman he is forced to marry is your own twin, a selfish, spoiled, mean spirited woman who will get what she wants – no matter what she must do to accomplish that feat.  Delilah will do whatever she must in order to save the man she loves from her sister – even drastic measures.  But will the end result be her own happiness at last?

Mary For Love is a short story of twists and turns in the desperate measures one twin will take for the good of the man she loves.  I enjoyed Delilah’s fight for Hamish, it certainly wasn’t conventional but then it’s hard to be the hero by following all the rules.

If you’re looking for a quick, enjoyable romance then pick up Mary For Love.

*I received an e-ARC of Marry For Love from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. That does not change what I think of this novel.*
