Emergency: Wife Lost and Found by Carol Marinelli
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The very beautiful author under the pen name of Tessa Bell was born in England but lives in Australia. She is primarily a reader cum writer of Romance with an inclination towards medical field.

This book published by Mills and Boon can be labeled as a soft and neat romance between an ex-husband (Dr James Morell) and ex wife (Dr Lorna Mc Clelland). Both of them get divorced over a trivial matter and fate unites them after ten long years through an accident. Long lost love blooms again when the couple realize that they love each other more than anyone else in this world and it took ten years to get this confirmed. The reason for which they got separated becomes the sole reason again to re-marry and live happily ever after.

Positives: A soft and clean story that carries away the reader smoothly until the last page. A mix of deep emotions of love that remain suppressed inside both of them and which slowly unfold over a short stay of Lorna with James in his house. The author clearly brings out the fact that first love is never lost and is the strongest bond which remains forever, if given a chance. The importance of having children for the bond of marriage to become even stronger is well elicited.

Negatives: The role of fate bringing the couple together after ten years of separation somehow appears to be out of present times. The physical weakness of Lorna seems to have weakened her high headedness over a period of time which also became the main reason for her to accept James again, who in turn is projected to be the gentleman and ‘not at fault’ guy during the separation. Why didn’t he try to explain things clearly to Lorna and avoid separation….whatever may be the circumstances?

My rating is 3.25 out of 5
