Review: A Deal Sealed By Passion by Louise Fuller

A Deal Sealed By Passion by Louise Fuller
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wow, talk about a “hot” beginning…………..

”His lean, dark features tightening, he shifted his gaze and stared down dispassionately at the naked women sprawled over both him and one another in the emperor-sized bed. They were beautiful and wanton and idly he tried to remember their names. Not that it mattered. He would never see either of them again. Women had a tendency to confuse intimacy with commitment but he liked variety and anyway the 'c' word was simply not part of his vocabulary.

The brunette shifted in her sleep, her arms flopping onto his chest. Feeling a spasm of irritation, he reached down and lifted the tangle of limbs away from his torso and onto the rumpled sheets before rolling over and out of the bed.

His breathing quiet and measured, he stood up and began to pick his way between the shoes and stockings strewn across the soft pale grey carpet. In front of the huge panoramic window that covered the length of the apartment he noticed a half-empty bottle of champagne and, leaning over, he picked it up.

'Happy Birthday, Massimo,' he murmured and, lifting it to his lips, he tipped it up.”

Page 1 of Louise Fuller’s novel, A Deal Sealed by Passion!!!! And the heat continues!!!

Italian Massimo Sforza, sexy, rich and ruthless tycoon does not do love, emotion or commitment!!! What he does love is winning over his enemies and having a lot of gorgeous and beautiful women in his bed, on his own terms…great sex and nothing more.

”Behind him, one of the women moaned softly, and he felt a frisson of lust shudder over his skin. Besides, right now, he was more interested in vice than virtue.

Savouring his body's growing arousal, he glanced at the sky. It was nearly dawn. The project meeting was scheduled for that morning. He hadn't been planning to attend—but what better birthday present could there be than hearing first-hand that the last remaining obstacle had been removed? And that work on his largest and most prestigious resort ever could finally begin.

His eyes narrowed as the blonde lifted her head, her lips curving into a suggestive pout. Coolly, he smiled back at her. Perhaps there was one thing…

He watched the brunette uncurl and stretch lazily and began to walk back to the bed.”

But Massimo is about to find his life changing in ways he never imagined, when he meets Flora Golding, the person standing in his way to obtaining his latest acquisition.

I found Massimo and Flora rather appealing and enjoyed seeing them come together. Their interaction and sparkly dialogue was totally fabulous …….and I loved seeing the passion and chemistry build up.

I relished the colorful and vivid descriptions of the Sardinia setting…the old and slightly crumbling palazzo and the gardens just added such magic to the story.

I’ve seen comments about the heroine not being a virgin………okay, I am not crazy about a wanton and loads of sex partners before she meets the hero…..but to be honest…..how many heroines are virgins in 2016???? I don’t mind a non-virgin most of the times so Flora not being one didn’t bother me………she wasn’t exactly a slut!!!!

This is the 1st book I’ve read by this author, which I enjoyed…. and I will be on the lookout for any others that she has written.
