Love blooms in the second novel in #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts’ celebrated Bride Quartet.
Wedding florist Emma Grant gets to play with flowers every day and work with her three best friends in the process. She couldn’t ask for a better job. And her love life seems to be thriving. Though men swarm around her, she still hasn’t found Mr. Right. And the last place she’s looking is right under her nose.
But that’s just where Jack Cooke is. He’s so close to the women of Vows that he’s practically family. Now though, the architect has begun to admit to himself that his feelings for Emma have developed into much more than friendship. And when Emma returns his passion—kiss for blistering kiss, they must trust in their history—and in their hearts…

"It had been awhile since I read the first book in this series but it was an easy series to pick up again. I really loved this book. I think the characters are great and I think the plots have been great so far. I read this book pretty quick and am looking forward to reading the next one about Laurel! I have a feeling I may know where this series is leading to, or more to the point who will end up with who!"

" Great second book in the quartet! It was really interesting to get to know Emma and Jack in further detail, and to get a glimpse of previous main characters. I also enjoyed guessing at the foreshadowing for the books to come. "
— Marissa, 2/8/2014" Another good one. I like these characters - 4 best friends that run a wedding planning company. Bed of Roses focuses on Emma, the florist of the group, both her business and personal life. I am enjoying this series and look forward to the next one.... "
— Cherice, 1/30/2014" Audio book I really enjoyed this series so far. Can't wait for the final book!Nora Roberts "

— Nancy, 1/10/2014" and this was a great book to read on my way home "
— needs, 1/6/2014" Great book! Not my favorite in the series (the bride quartet) but still very good... steamy sex scenes! "
— Lindsay, 11/25/2013" I love this series!! I've just started book 3 and I can't wait! "
— Debi, 11/25/2013" it's a sweet book.. definitely a sweet book "
— Sienny, 11/12/2013" A light, easy read. This is part of a series and you really will want to read them all. "
— Carol, 10/29/2013" A decent second book. I liked the female protagonist's story better than the male's. "
— Kel, 9/19/2013" Predictable chick lit read, but I knew what I was getting into when I started it. Easy read and I will try and continue with the series. "
— Lauren, 9/5/2013" Love these books! Love Nora Roberts "
— Lee-marie, 8/25/2013" I absolutely loved this book! I fell in love with all of the girls and I can't wait to read their stories. Based on some hints found in this book, I have a feeling who Parker and Laurel will end up with. I cannot wait, however, to see how everything unfolds. "
— Dominique, 7/1/2013" Cute, but I really didn't connect with or feel the sparks/realnes of Emma and Jack's relationship that I did for Mac and Carter. I also didn't like this narrator as much. The voices she did for both Mac and for the males were rather annoying. "
— Jen, 6/21/2013" *rubs at aching heart* This one's a tearjerker, a bittersweet one. It makes me laugh and it makes me bawl my eyes out. *happy sigh* "
— ms, 5/6/2013" Love this series by Nora Roberts...cant wait to read the rest!! "
— Donna, 2/6/2013" 2.5 stars. See my review of book one "Vision in White". It's pretty much the same except I'm starting to skim more over the wedding details. "
— Pamela, 12/24/2012" My favorite out of the whole quartet....I loved the love story. "
— Mercedes, 12/15/2012" great book... kept my interest... "
— Cheri, 12/5/2012" Very similar in structure to the first in the quartet - don't know if this series is as great as some of her others, but it's still La Nora at the top of her game. I just wish it didn't feel like reading 'Vision in White' all over again. "
— Kate, 9/1/2012" I loved the first book when I read it about a year and a half ago. Loved this book too. Already have the next book "Savor the Moment" on Request from the library in the Large Print Edition. "
— Kristen, 8/20/2012" Good read. Romantic and sweet. "
— Kellyann, 6/5/2012" I am a Nora Roberts fan. I love her series, because she does she a great job with the characters, I hate to see them go away at the end of the book. So, yeah, I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the 3rd one. "
— Michele, 5/14/2012" I am always a sucker for easy romance novels and this series fits the bill. The characters are well developed and even though you know the ending in about 5 pages it is still a fun read. "
— Wendy, 1/20/2012" I love the Bride Quartet by Nora Roberts. Each book tells such a wonderful love story and I couldn't put any of them down. I loved them all! "
— Jenna, 11/25/2011" See "Happy Ever After" review. "
— Tracy, 7/14/2011" Interesting book for Nora Roberts. Haven't seen her write like this before. Great book overall! "
— Merceda, 5/13/2011" I wasn't as big of a fan of this one as the first. I didn't feel like there was as much of a conflict to be resolved. I am still looking forward to the rest of the series. "
— Roxanne, 4/20/2011" Cute story. Will read the next one in the series too. "

— Jobina, 4/11/2011" I didn't like this one as much as the first Quartet but its still a great book. "
— Kimberly, 4/4/2011" Enjoyed Bed of Roses, but wasn't as enamored of Jack and I was with Carter. Emma was sweet and true to character throughout the book. The ending felt a little rushed to me, though. "
