Review # 1 was written on 2019-02-20 00:00:00 Albert Arauz Married to the enemy? Arriving in Manhattan, Lisa Hayward had expected to be greeted by her brother, rather than Thornton Landers, a businessman with a sexy Southern drawl and seduction on his mind! "My friends call me Thorn," he had said, and when Lisa had asked him what his enemies called him he had replied, "Ruthless." Lisa tried to keep Thorn at a distance, but it was impossible! Swept off her feet by his ruthless charm and powerful persuasion, in no time at all she'd agreed to marry him--only to discover that a darker motive lay behind Thorn's proposal: revenge!

Review # 2 was written on 2021-01-07 00:00:00 Jeffrey Wong The only hot-blooded thing happening here was 50-year-old Liam's apparent courtship of a younger woman, because his and Kit's romance was definitely off the burner. The reader isn't given much insight into the exact nature of Liam's relationship with the OW, but I like to think that Liam did not sleep with her. Maybe he kept things on a professional level. Or maybe he only used her as a delay tactic so he could buy time and decide what to do about Kit. *fingers crossed* It's later revealed that Liam had an aversion to marriage because of his disastrous first marriage, but it's just touched upon without any in-depth exploration. Kit and Liam didn't interact enough to make this a romantic read. Not when they spent the majority of the book with other people, even if those people were just friends or a casual date. They did not seem to yearn for each other all that much either. And wow, the cover is really unflattering. The heroine is 52, not 72 and near death! (By the way, doesn't Liam look like he's ready to give Kit a very helping hand in signing her last will and testament? In which all of her assets are given to him. Now I know why he strung her along! Hehehe) On the other hand, I'll take the illustrations of the '80s and '90s over the digital covers of today anytime. They're much more romantic and emotive in comparison.
