The Real Romero by Cathy WilliamsMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
The story started off pretty well....a down-and-out and hardworking Milly get's "marooned" in a luxury Swiss chateau with a gorgeous man, who she presumes is a lowly ski instructor but he's actually a billionaire. He's impressed that she's not a golddigger and likes him for what he is and not his money like all the women he has known in the past!!!!!
And then, after a few chapters I became totally irritated with Milly and her inane comments and sayings.
He asks her to pretend to be his fiancee to please his ailing mother and after their visit to Spain, offers her a job and lets her stay in his luxury pad in London...yes, she had no job or a place to live because he ex-fiancee, who she caught in bed with her best friend and housemate, who is still occupying their place....why she didn't kick her friend out and get herself together is beyond me...but then it's so much easier when a rich man puts you up.
And the hero just didn't do it for me.....why did it take him so long to make up his mind about Milly.....he did believe she loved him and not his money...so why all the angst and uncertainty!!!!!
I have read much better books by this author.....this one miss the mark for me!!
