I came across this book/author in a thread on the bird app and was immediately enticed by the paragraph she shared from this book, which led me to pick it up on a whim. I found this to be very well-written and I enjoyed it more than I anticipated, even with its slightly bonkers plot, and I’m glad that I read it!

Stolen in Her Wedding Gown is a marriage-of-convenience romance with vengeful brothers seeking revenge against a corrupt corporate empire and family, a gruff playboy MMC with a good heart, and an atypical society heiress who can’t stand the society she was raised in. Eros and Priya were a well-matched couple with fiery strong-willed personalities and I loved their antagonistic, sexual tension-fuelled banter! Despite their initial mistrust and the business-like arrangement of their marriage, the more time they spent around each other on the island all alone, the more their chemistry grew and it led to some delightful tension-filled moments! Their romance is a slow burn but it was sexy and there were a couple of steamy moments that were done tastefully.

While much of the story (about 60+%) moved at a slower pace, the last 30% or so moved at a very fast clip. It got dramatic and angsty with the third-act breakup and while I wished that they had given each other the chance to talk it out properly instead of jumping straight to conclusions, their actions weren’t out of character. Ultimately, it was a sweet HEA and I liked how certain characters changed their tune even if it felt rushed and I wished we got to see a better resolution for it.

Overall though, I’m glad I read it and found a new author whose writing and romance I enjoy. Will be checking out Cinelli’s backlist of which I’m glad to see there are many to choose from 🙂
