Summary: Couldn't put it down!
Review: It's tough when the man you're in love with tells you (his mistress)that he's getting married....to someome else. I loved the sexual tension between Amber, the high-flying business-woman and Lucas, the guy who had it all and threw it away! Love is very seldom perfect--and this guy is far from it! Five years later, Amber inherits part of Lucas' company--and Lucas decides to marry (through blackmail!) the woman only worthty as mistress five years prior. The woman who would have once done almost anything for the title of wife to the man she loved... This has great conflict! Definitely worhty of reading more than once!

Summary: Okay Read
Review: Synopsis: Amber's multimillionaire Greek boyfriend, Lucas Karadines, informed her that he was getting married ' to someone else'. Five years later, Amber has put Lucas behind her ' until she inherits half his company. Lucas, who's now single again, knows the only way to keep control is for him to marry Amber. But how can she consider marrying him at his convenience ' when, five years before, she was worthy only of being his mistress'?

I found this book difficult to read I could not get past the fact (even after finishing the book) that I felt that Amber was Lucas's choice by default and that he was just using her. I know they resolve this in the end, but I still had that feeling. For me personally one chapter of resolution wasn't enough to solve this for me. The upside of the book was the sexual tension. Balancing that with the plotline I rank this one in the middle --not bad but not great.

Summary: So Bad !
Review: The "hero" of this book is such a mean, cruel man. I mean, usually, the hero just says that he doesn't feel anything for the leading lady because he fears he might be viewed as vulnerable or unmanly. However, this is one hero who is literally the "love em and leave em" types with love being a figurative word here. The leading lady, Amber, is so obsessed with him, not only does she beg him not to leave her- ugh! - she lets him have sex with her even after he has virtually left her. It is like looking at a truly S&M relationship and it was not at all pleasant, I gotta tell you. This book was so twisted that it almost made me go off romance fiction altogether. It's that bad !

Summary: hero is no hero
Review: What really bothered me about this book was that the hero, after taking the heroine's virginity, just dumps her and marries someone else. Throughout the entire book he seems to only be using her and not really care about her at all. And his reason that he gives for dumping her without a word does not in anyway justify it or make me sympathetic toward his character. Apparantly, he felt that even though she was a virgin she was so uninhibited he felt she would turn into a slut and break his heart and that is why he just up and married someone else. The hero was a complete slime up until the very end, he never redeems himself.
