Too boring, taking too long to read.

Bound to the Bachelor is an emotional read. Ms. Mayberry manages to tug at your heart strings with a delicate subject matter. She also manages to make you root for the two main characters to find their way to each other. Received this book for an honest review. ( )

In spite of being a typical romance story Bound to the Bachelor has a twist. The male lead, Brett owns a security company and that comes in handy as the female lead Lily has a dark past that has come back to haunt her. The feelings that the two of them have been avoiding for so many years must be confronted and what results is an explosive and soul connecting romance.

DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: Your date with Marietta local Beau Bennett includes a day on the slopes at Big Sky Resort, complete with a sumptuous meal in the Resort’s fanciest fine dining restaurant and door-to-door transport. Dig deep to secure the attentions of one of Montana’s most eligible - and elusive - bachelors.

Lily Taylor knows Beau Bennett dislikes her, but that won’t stop her from asking him to volunteer for the Bachelor Auction she’s organized to help her friend Molly provide for her tragically injured son, Josh. If Beau’s gorgeous face, piercing blue eyes and chiseled body inspires the women of Marietta to dig into their pockets for a good cause, then Lily will do whatever it takes to secure his participation.

Beau Bennett isn’t sure how he wound up on the auction block being eyed up by hundreds of eager women, but he knows who to blame for it - Lily Taylor, the sexy, distracting, off-limits best friend of his kid sister. As far as he’s concerned, the sooner this nightmare is over, the better.

The last thing either of them expects is for Lily to wind up bidding on - and winning - Beau, or that their date will lead to Beau stepping in to save Lily when her past comes back to haunt her. As Beau does his best to keep Lily safe, they discover that maybe they don’t dislike each other quite as much as they thought.

In fact, maybe it’s just the opposite… ( )
