I have enjoyed reading Carole Mortimer’s books since the early 80”s and amazed how long she has been writing for Mills & Boon....and what a popular author she is...but this is not surprising....she has her own distinctive style of writing, good characters that one can engage with and there are always these romantic twists in the tales.This is the first book of in The Sicilians Trilogy, not my favourite one in the series but still enjoyable.
Cesare Gambrelli, a full blooded Sicilian...it’s all about revenge, retribution and all that....believes that Simon Ingram is responsible for his death and more importantly his sister’s, which has left him to take care of their son Marco.
Determined to get his revenge on the Ingram family, he blackmails Robin, Simon’s sister, into marrying him and look after his nephew.
Of course Robin is not going to agree to this mad proposal and being a strong and rational woman fights the intense attraction she feels for him. I admit that their chemistry is pretty hot. She of course falls deeply in love with Cesare and ultimately agrees to marry him.
They have obstacles to overcome- a huge one regarding the truth about his sister’s life which is nothing that he imagined... but in the end their do find their HEA, together with the delightful Marco.
