Hero Angelo Riccardi takes revenge on Donald Hamilton (the man who wronged Angelo's mother in the past) by forcing Donald's daughter (26-year-old heroine Gwenna Hamilton) into being his mistress for as long as he wants her. But things don't go as smoothly as Angelo would like them to when he begins to fall for Gwenna. Gwenna was a sweet and caring heroine, though she was a bit naive at times. She seemed happiest spending time in her garden and being with her dog Piglet, who she adored. I loved Piglet! The little dog was sooo cute and adorable. I liked Gwenna. She was quite spirited at times, standing up to the hero. Women usually fawned over Angelo and did anything he wanted so Angelo didn't know what to make of Gwenna, she was different from the rest. She wasn't impressed with his wealth. I enjoyed his jealousy over Gwenna's friend Toby. Gwenna and Angelo made a good couple and had great chemistry. This was a terrific read by Lynne Graham with a great main couple and a cute little dog who managed to steal the book away from the main couple! Another Amazon Freebie! As Angelo learns his background, you are sure to have a love/hate relationship with him. You first wonder why he is so cold but as you hear his story, you know there is much more to it. As you teach of Donald Hamilton the man who stole his mother’s money and then onto Gwenna the daughter of such a “horrid man” you can only wonder if the story is true. In the beginning you know that at some point the two will meet (come on we know this is a Romance Novel) just from the cover of the book. Okay and the two meet because of Piglet. I love it and found myself literally laughing aloud. When he offers to allow Gwenna to help, pay off by being the “mistress” it becomes interesting. Although the story was predictable, I can say that it was interesting and definitely a Harlequin romance. Angelo Riccardi is the grandson of notorious crime family head Carmelo Zanetti. When Zanetti is dying, he summons Angelo to his bedside to tell him the awful secret of his family, including the fact that his late mother had been swindled by English fraudster Donald Hamilton and then dumped. Although he has always been on the right side of the law, his Italian heritage surfaces as he vows revenge on Hamilton. But then, he meets Gwenna, Hamilton’s daughter and sparks of all kind begin to fly, more so when he includes her in his web of vendetta. I have to begin by confessing that I’m not normally a fan of romance novels. Too many ripped bodices and heaving bosoms, exquisitely beautiful maidens and unbelievably handsome swains for my taste. But, Lynne Graham’s The Italian’s Inexperienced Mistress is not your usual cloyingly described sex scenes interspersed with a few paragraphs of purple prose narrative. I mean, it has a lot of the obligatory coupling, grappling, and heavy breathing, enough in fact to satisfy fans of the genre. But, it is also a novel of high intrigue, suspense, and not a small amount of humor. Part Cinderella, part Great Gatsby, Angelo’s adventures, Gwenna’s inner turmoil, and the path of their relationship will keep you turning the pages. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

HTML: When Angelo sought revenge Gwenna Hamilton added another delicious dimension. Innocent and pretty, she didn't stand a chance when the Italian tycoon offered her the devil's bargain: pay for her father's freedom with her body. In her naiveté, Gwenna thought that Angelo would tire of her and her innocence very quickly. But he had more in mind that just one night... Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

The heroine is totally too sweet and here is another example of a heroine getting into trouble with the hero to save her totally undeserving family. Boy I wish more HP writers would write decent families that have to be saved.
It's LG so decent writing, plenty of tiaras and Italian villas. ;-) ( )
