For too
long Tessa has seen herself as plain and dowdy, just an ordinary suburban housewife.
With her confidence eroded after being married to a bully who humiliated her at
every opportunity, why wouldn’t she presume she was unattractive, and someone
no man would find the least bit worth bothering with?
But now Tessa is a widow, and relishing her
new state of independence. Her world is turned upside down by Jack Delaney, a
man she spent hours fantasizing over when he worked for her husband. A man who gave
her a deliciously secret outlet from her miserable marriage. When Jack enters
her life again, professing he finds her attractive, why would she believe him?
Especially as he is now wealthy, successful, still extremely handsome, and to
add to that, years younger than her.
"This is an unforgettable love story that I didn’t want to end and when it did, I wanted to start reading it again. Tessa is a wonderful heroine who has to regain her self-esteem and learn to love again. Jack is a man sure of what he wants and doesn’t mind using everything in his power to get it." Hattie Boyd
Opposites attract, it is a
well-known fact. At times this leads to insurmountable conflict, when at other
times, sit back and watch the fireworks.
Steve Tanakis considers
himself cool and calmly confident. Head of a fashion business, he needs to be
in control of his life and his business decisions. He decides it is time to
find a suitable mother for his son. Through with the pain that comes along with
passion, he now considers what he wants is an unemotional wife, one who will
fit well into his way of life.
Georgie McNamara, assistant
designer in his fashion house, is flamboyant, vivacious, and gregarious, the
antitheses to his idea of the perfect choice. The tiny whirlwind turns Steve's organized
lifestyle upside down, somehow worming her way into his, and his son’s life,
foiling all his plans to find that uncomplicated wife. Along the way Steve
comes to realize there is a lot more to this bundle of feminine trouble than he
first thought. Is she more trouble than he can handle?
"A very cute love story! I really enjoyed this book. I cannot wait to read the last one. I'll be reading these over again soon!" 5 stars Loved it! by BOOKLOVER64 at KOBO
What happens when two people who are both of the same
mind—this being to steer well clear of emotional entanglements—are struck down
by instant attraction.
Kate last met Liam when she was bridesmaid at her
sister’s wedding. A gangly, uncertain fourteen year old, going through the
painful problems associated with growing up, she took an instant dislike to
Liam, who made fun of her. When her recently widowed sister talks her into
reluctantly accompanying her to her brother-in-law’s home, which was built by its
owner, architect Liam, Kate falls in love with the house and, unfortunately for
her, finds that she soon has corresponding feelings for the man who owns it.
Meanwhile, Liam cannot believe that the tall, insecure
teenager he met at his brother’s wedding years ago has blossomed into this beautiful,
talented woman. His inbuilt antennae that had served him well, stood every
chance of being annihilated if he didn’t watch out.
"This is a wonderfully written love story. This romantic situation takes place in Australia and the flavor of the dialogue is most captivating. With each new sentence being spoken by the characters, I found myself caught in an enchanting whirlwind of hearing their charming voices. It was an endearing quality which I enjoyed so much. Tricia McGill has the precise recipe for romance and intrigue all within the pages of this expertly written novel." Patti Oh.
