I see so much of Megan Hart in this book it isn't funny. When I say this I mean this author has the wonderful ability to draw you into a story but she hasn't perfected the art of keeping the lines blurred enough so people can jump into her characters (like Megan Hart). She kept reminding me that I am not 20 years older than I am and that I am not in a loveless marriage, when I definitely could have felt that way for 352 pages. I will keep an eye on this author because I think she has amazing talent. For now, this book didn't do it for me. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Their romance was a modern-day fairy tale: handsome older millionaire falls hard for struggling young waitress. Robert swept Elsie off her feet--and into his bed--put a huge diamond on her finger and spirited her away in his private jet destined for happily-ever-after. Eight years later, Elsie Kolstadt realizes the clock has finally struck midnight. The five-star restaurants, exclusive address and exotic vacations can no longer make up for Robert's obsessive desire to control everything about their life together. From her hairstyle to her music playlists, Robert has things just the way he wants them. No matter what. But it's Robert's ultimate, unforgivable manipulation that finally shocks Elsie into action. Though divorce would strip her of everything, she can't live under Robert's roof any longer. Making her decision easier is Dion Carter, a high-school football coach with a heart of gold and a body of sculpted steel. Suddenly Elsie is deep in a steamy affair that could cost her everything--because Robert will stop at nothing to keep Elsie under his thumb. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Can I please say, thank goodness the more intimate scenes between Robert and Elsie were low key. It's not that I have anything against their relationship, but I was kind of wary about reading about their intimate moments. I fairly despised Robert from the moment that book began. I am so glad Elsie wizened up during the book.
I also very much liked Dion, and I loved that he was so good for Elsie. Unfortunately I had a hard time believing the chemistry between them. Yes, I realize this is an Erotic Novel and therefore chemistry has to be built in somewhere throughout the story, but really? How many times does someone fall so quickly for another person? Still, I was smitten with how much they clearly loved one another above and beyond the physical attraction.
Since this was my first novel of this kind, I don't have much to base it on. However I do know that I was very impressed with the coherent storyline and the multi-dimensional characters. I would have loved this story even without the erotic elements thrown in! ( )
