Trouble at the Wedding: Abandoned at the Altar by Laura Lee Guhrke

4.0

I still like the second book in this series the best so far, but this one was still a good read. I have to admit I'd probably have liked it better if I hadn't listened to the audio--I really wasn't crazy about the southern accent that the narrator gave Annabel. Plotwise, I would have liked to have seen more details about Christian's first marriage--it felt like we saw way more of Annabel's disastrous early love life and never got a solid enough grasp on his. Time was definitely spent on it, but it still felt uneven. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to really affect my enjoyment of the novel...just made it seem a bit out of balance.

Is it a coincidence that this novel was released so close to the premiere of season two of Downton Abbey? The theme of rich American heiresses bailing out the bankrupt ton seemed awfully familiar.... :-)
