1: Kind of silly, but cute at times
Lord Bannor the bold is A gorgeous and brave warrior that has been married twice and has 12 children, some of them illegitimate.. He needs an unattractive wife that will not tempt him to bed her because he does not want anymore unruly children. Willow was certainly not what he was looking for with her beautiful face and figure, and it appears that she cannot even control the wild bunch he calls his kids. Taking care of 12 children was the last thing Willow wanted, but with A handsome prince of A man like Bannor, how could she resist him and his brood when she finds out that Bannor isn't really the lust filled man he appears to be.
I will be honest and say that it took me months to finish this book. When I first started to read it, I thought it was very exciting to read about A man that had so many illegitimate children, but then the children started taking up too much of the book and it just got too ridiculous for me when Willow joined in with them in waging war on Bannor, so I put the book down and read something else, and then another and another. About six months later it sparked my interest again and it was much easier to read knowing what to expect. It's the kind of book that you cannot take too seriously, but the writing was excellent and the book was enjoyable. The children were annoying sometimes but also cute and funny at other times. My favorite thing about this book was that it was extremely funny and I laughed alot. My least favorite thing was that some of the scenes were just too silly and weren't very believable, but I think the comedy saved it, so it was easy to overcome the silliness of it all and enjoy it. There were 2 foreplay scene and 1 major love scene and I give it 6 out of 10.

2: Laugh out loud Funny
This book was good, I enjoyed it, especially since it was laugh out loud funny. The problem is that the tone in the first 2/3rds of the book is funny and light, and moves directly to serious with a mystery in the last third of the book. Had the book kept it's light tone and flowed a little smoother, it could have earned 5 stars. It has LOTS of kids in the book, which I enjoyed, some who may not. All in all, a good read, one for you to put on your TBR list.

3: One of the funniest romances I have ever read!
Warning!!!! This book should only be read when you are really in the mood for comedic romance, because it is much heavier on comedy than romance. With this being said I really enjoyed the read. I found it to be one of the funniest romances I have ever read. I usually do not laugh out loud at romances, but this one had me laughing out loud in a hospital waiting room of all places!
With all the comdedy it is not to be taken as seriously as many other romances. Once you accept that, it is easy to enjoy this book for exactly what it is....a comedy!
Definitely going to my keeper shelf when I just want a good laugh and a light hearted pick me up.

4: A cute, quick read
No real tension. No real character development. But a cute story. Not something I will re-read. Check it out of the library, don't buy it.
