Bachelor Unforgiving by Brenda JacksonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
A story of forgive and forget. Virgil Bougard and Kara Goshay were lovers until a few years back when Kara broke off the relationship accusing Virgil of cheating. The hurt feelings of rejection and pain, Virgil is bitter towards Kara, refusing to have anything to do with her. But, once finding out the truth, Kara approached Virgil to apologize that he refused to accept.
Virgil was known as a womanizer and as his father put it, a male whore image that was affecting the company his father owned; causing a bad reputation for himself and the company. To help change Virgil’s image his father hires a PR company, owned by Kara Goshay. Virgil is stubborn as hell and totally caught up in his feelings and with him still having feelings for Kara, but too callous to admit, he is having a hard time working with Kara. However, that is where their struggle to healing begins.
This was one of those stories that made you think. Sometimes to forgive and forget can be one of the hardest things to do and this story proved it and it also proved that it could be accomplished. I like how the story unfolded, yet it was difficult to see how stubborn Virgil could be, but he was in pain and I do believe his pain was from love but most from pride and rejection. Like Virgil said that love should have made her believe him, but also love should have made him forgive her. They were both in a complex situation and I could see both sides of their stories. However, Virgil got on my nerves, at times he seemed like a spoiled brat, but I believe if the tables were turned, Kara’s character would have not been too much different. The story was a pretty good read, not my favorite and a slim chance I will re-read. I give it 3.75 out of 5 stars.
