The Bride and the Brute by Laurel O'Donnell

Jayce has just married a man that despises her. He keeps saying he doesn't have a wife, won't consummate the marriage, and won't acknowledge her unless he has to. She doesn't know what to do with a husband that doesn't want her.

Reese doesn't want a wife unless they are deeply in love with one another. He's been forced into this marriage and can't wait to get it annulled. After some tramatic experiences as a child, he's decided that he won't let a woman put him through the pain that his mother put his father through.

This is a short novella. It's a sweet story. Good descriptions and the characters are well rounded. I enjoyed reading about Jayce and Reese. Jayce is very open, strong, and sweet. Reese gives you the feeling of a sweet, sensitive man under his extremely gruff exterior. I would like to read more from this wonderful author.
