Blurb:

Arranged marriages weren't really a thing in this day and age, were they?

That’s what Beth Thompson thought until her father informed her she was destined for one. And to the last person on the planet Beth would want to marry—her father's right-hand man. Suave and debonair, Marcus may have her father fooled, but Beth saw the monster beneath the surface and wanted no part of that or him.

Too bad her father was the kind of man who got what he wanted at any cost. Giving his only daughter to someone of his choosing would keep a man at the helm and his precious company in the family.

However, Beth would be the master of her own destiny. And after stumbling across a want ad on an Alaskan website, she knew just what that destiny would be.

She couldn't be forced to marry if she were already someone else's wife.

Review:

3.75-4 stars ****  This was a cute read! Polar Opposite was is part of the Polar Bear, Alaska series, which is a series of standalones by all different authors set in the same small town. This book was Beth and Joe's story. Beth is the daughter of a cold business man with some shady dealings who tries to force her to marry his right hand man/protege/smarmy jerk. Instead, Beth must find a way to escape the situation. She finds a website with classified ads and stumbles upon some ads of men seeking wives from a small town in Alaska where they are more men than women. From there she decides to answer an ad by Joe Bennett, because she likes the idea of possibly being Elizabeth Bennett. Joe is a very nice guy and they hit it off over email, with her eventually running away to meet him and get married in Alaska. I enjoyed this story. The set up was original and I enjoyed the Alaskan setting. I liked this take on the the mail order bride trope. Joe and Beth were sweet together. I especially liked Joe and found him a fun, nice guy. Beth was a little on the too innocent side for my taste. Still, I was happy they got their HEA together. Overall, I did enjoy this an easy, low angst read. I will definitely check out the other books in this series. I look forward to more from Ms. Curtis in the future!
