Review:

You want Hot? Revenge? Romance that will make your heart race? Well then this one is for you and it's fabulous! Abby is just another rising star amongst the new Harlequin Presents authors. It's a wonderful love story set in Dublin!

From the time her father died and her mother remarried Maggie Holland had to take care of her mother. She married a monster, a man who manipulated both women by physically harming Maggie’s mother and blackmailing Maggie to do as he wished in order to keep her mother safe. Her stepfather was greedy and had a plan, a plan to bring down a very successful Brazilian millionaire Caleb Cameron. His plan is to dangle his lovely stepdaughter under Caleb’s nose. From the moment they meet, the air sizzles and Maggie immediately looses her heart. Can she go through with the plan? In the end, Caleb confronts her and she flees, shamed by her part in the plan.

However, life has a strange way of getting even and in the end; Maggie’s stepfather dies and leaves both women with nothing. Maggie’s mother is fragile and is left with nothing, not even the family home she loves in Ireland. But Maggie has a plan and she learns that Caleb is coming to Dublin to conduct business so she goes to see him, and begs for her family home and will do anything he wants so her mother can keep her home.

Upon seeing Maggie again, Caleb wants revenge and tells her if she stays with him for two months as his mistress, her debt will be free and clear and her mother can keep the family estate! Ruthless? YES! Will Maggie leave with her heart in one piece? NO! Their journey was a painful one as Caleb didn’t want to believe that Maggie was a dishonest woman as at times signs pointed in the other direction. Maggie and Caleb’s love story was intense, full of passion and emotion and one I will long remember. Again, Abby Green has written a brilliant and entertaining love story.
