Release month: April 2008

The S-Factor: Sweet

Back-Blurb:

The wedding of the season!

Event’s manager Sylvie Smith is organising a glittering fundraising event: a wedding show in a stately home. She has even been roped into pretending to be a bride – a bride who’s five months pregnant...

The bride everyone is talking about!

It should be every girl’s dream, designing a wedding with no expense spared, but not for Sylvie. Longbourne Court was her ancestral home, and she’s just discovered that the new owner is Tom MacFarlane: her baby’s secret father. Now Tom’s standing in front of her, looking at her bump...

A Bride for All Seasons

A spring wedding is in the air!

Review:

The Bride’s Baby is the first in a new Harlequin Mills & Boon Romance miniseries, and Liz Fielding kicks it off with her usual tug-at-the-heart emotional pull that is her signature of a fulfilling Romance read.

Sylvie Smith attempts to negotiate payment with a jilted groom – billionaire Tom MacFarlane and finds herself with more than she bargained for!

This is another dazzling story from the pen of Liz Fielding. Sylvie is a tough, no-nonsense heroine, and Tom is a gorgeous hero to fall in love with – and fall I did!

As well as enjoying the heartfelt emotion, I loved the humour in Sylvie’s “Oh, confetti” moments! As always, Liz Fielding has woven pure magic and by the end of the book she has her readers breathing a sigh or relief and contentment. Another for the keeper shelf!

The S-Factor: Sizzling!

Back-Blurb:

Emily Lawton never expected to see him again. But somehow Vito Corsentino has tracked her down! The fiery, brooding Sicilian wants Emily. This time he’ll take her and he’ll be the one to discard her when it’s over!But quiet Emily has one last shock in store for Vito… She’s having his baby and if he finds out he’ll want more than revenge!

Review:

This is Kate's 50th book and oh what a book! It's a very powerful and passionate love story with another of Kate's "hot" Italian men and this time it's Vito!

THE SICILIAN’S RED-HOT REVENGE exemplifies a Harlequin Presents book at its very best! Vito is drop dead gorgeous, spirited, stubborn at times, and very passionate. And when he's angry, well watch out!As you learned in Sicilian Husband, Blackmailed Bride, Guido has a brother Vito and they are in business together. For years they worked non-stop and promised each other on their 30th birthday they would take a year off and this is Vito's year. As he comes from a shipbuilding family, his passion is carving; so he rents a flat near the shore in England. In this same book, you also learn that at a wedding a woman faints and of course this is one introduction in meeting Emily.

On one very particular day Vito is out walking and sees a beautiful Englishwoman on the beach and is immediately captivated by her and while watching her from afar, he realizes she is in danger of drowning in the ocean and he comes to her rescue. Their attraction is immediate and Vito insists that Emily accompany him back to his flat to get warmed up and out of her wet clothes. After a short kiss on the beach, Emily realizes she is in trouble, but in the end goes home with Vito.Of course, any hot blooded Italian who is so desperately attracted to a woman like Emily...not just her simple beauty but her spirit and the passion he sees in her eyes can't control himself. Once they come together all is lost for them both.

However, the tables are turned when Vito retrieves Emily's personal belongings and answers her cell. There he finds out that she is married and anger doesn't even describe his emotions. Emily flees back home and Vito returns to Italy. One evening while dining with his brother and sister in-law he learns that at the wedding his brother broke up there was a woman who fainted and her name was Emily Lawton. Vito is shocked and reacts quickly, flying to England and to Emily.

Vito and Emily's reuniting was very painful for me to read. It so depicts how miscommunication or lack of it can destroy a relationship. Honesty finally prevails, a lesson we can all learn and their passion, longing and yearning will take your breath away.

Congratulations to Kate Walker on this 50th book. However, I would personally like to say, thank you to Kate for the wonderful hours of reading you have personally provided this reader and please keep those books coming! Perhaps we can find another Corsentino sibling out there so we can see how Vito and Guido are doing?
