Will You (Pretend) Marry Me (Swan Cove Series) by Christi Barth – Review by Jennie M Bechtel

Will You Pretend Marry Me by Christi Barth
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Overall, I liked this book. I thought it was a long read for a romance novel. At first, it was a slow, sometimes confusing read. Then, about halfway through, I got really invested in the story and couldn’t put the book down. I’m glad I stuck with it. I really like the character Kaia/Abagail. I felt sympathetic to her. I can’t imagine going through what Abagail endured as a child, or the lack of privacy and safety that Kaia encountered. I was confused by Everett’s story line. I think the author was trying to give him a secret double-life with the EPA job so he could be like Kaia/Abagail. I felt the story would have been just as good without that plot twist, though. I fell in love with the people of Swan Cove. What a gift to have such a great group of friends. I read this book stand-alone, but now I want to read the previous books in the Swan Cove series.
