Lord Thomas and His Bride, Book 3 of The Duke's Brothers (perhaps the series should have been titled "The Duke and His Brothers" since Book 4 was about the Duke himself), was about Lord Thomas Melton, youngest brother to His Grace Charles Melton, the Duke of Waign, and Rebecca Morton, daughter, and assistant to Dr. Edward Morton, the local physician in Weymouth. Thomas, who enjoyed the thrill of being a fossil hunter, had been out on an early morning excursion when he slipped and injured himself. He carefully made his way to the local physician's office where he met Rebecca. After an incident on the beach that led Rebecca's father to forbid Thomas from seeing her again, he also had Rebecca confined to her room for the next three days, like a recalcitrant child, and forbade her from ever seeing Thomas again. After arriving home, Thomas was told that their mother, the Dowager Duchess Waign, had decided to make a visit to the family, and was demanding to see him. (Side note: why hadn't this woman been brought into the picture in the first two books? This was the first time the dowager had ever been mentioned...at all.) Upon speaking with his mother, she immediately tried to make him believe that Rebecca was after his money and his title. The dowager accused Rebecca of trying to trap him and that she had started spreading rumors around about what had happened on the beach. When he tried to tell her it was none of his business, she forbade him from ever seeing Rebecca again. Regardless of the fact that Thomas didn't believe that Rebecca had any ulterior motives, his mother succeeded in planting doubts in his mind about her. The reasonings of both Dr. Melton and the Dowager-Duchess Waign made no sense. From the doctor's perspective, he should not have had an issue with the son of a duke taking an interest in his non-titled daughter. From the Dowager Duchess's perspective, she knew nothing about the girl or her family. So why were the two so set on keeping Thomas and Rebecca apart? The Dowager Duchess called Rebecca and her father to visit her at the Duke's home. Thinking she was ill, they went only to have the woman request some private time with Rebecca, at which time she offered her any amount of money she wanted to leave Thomas and the rest of the family alone. When they were able to find moments to be together, the chemistry and passion were quite apparent. But even more than that, the angst and drama were...stupid. Two parents who fought the relationship for no apparent reason, a family that rarely put in an appearance but, when they did, they were more meddling than helpful, a scandal that wasn't a scandal...but why was there a scandal? There was no explanation as to why it occurred. This book had no rhyme or reason. A lord who could fritter away his time hunting fossils and living off an allowance provided by his brother, the duke, two parents who for no reason disapprove of a relationship between their children, and yet...poof...they now approve. A salacious article in the newspaper about the two for no apparent reason behind it and never explained, too many unexplained happenings in the book for it to be a decent, well thought out story. Quite disappointing and not worth even a 3-star rating. Definitely not a Keeper for the Shelves book.
