This story starts off well and moves at a good pace. Emiliano is a gorgeous, rich and hot blooded Argentinian. He's having an affair with one of his employees and Sienna adores him. They both have issues and the romance is rocked to its core when Emiliano comes back from a trip to Argentina engaged to someone else. This story has unexpected turns and the ending doesn't disappoint I really loved this story and recommend it.

This was an okay read, but I didn't enjoy it so much because both H & h seemed somewhat detached & emotionless. I didn't quite buy into their "love"....

This book was great I read it in one sitting. This is Sienna and Emiliano's story. She was his Vice President and his lover. A crisis with his family sends him to Argentina for six days. A tabloid story sends her running. She resigns her job. He sees her at restaurant and follows her. She runs out of the restaurant and falls on the ice. It causes partial amnesia. They find out she is pregnant. He wants to marry her. She agrees even though she doesn't remember everything. He is walking on eggshells. Her memory returns. She tries to run. He will move heaven and earth to get her back.

When Emiliano Castillo started pursuing Sienna Newman she avoided it. When she finally gave in to him it became the best year of her life, that is until his trip back to Argentina. Sienna is ready to celebrate her birthday with the man she loves. She has made the decision to tell him she loves him, but when he arrives back from his trip (which he had extended by 4 days) he is standoffish. But after an argument they end up back in each others arms. Then the bombshell drops and Sienna's world fals apart...he is engaged to another woman.

Emiliano is angry. He has been forced to do something that has cost him Sienna. But there has to be a way out of it. If it hadn't been his comatose brother that asked for it he would have told his parents to bad. Now he finds Sienna gone from their penthouse, quitting his company, and out with another man. It is all to much to handle.

When an argument leads to a horrible accident and a pleasant surprise, Emiliano finds he has a second chance with Sienna. Now that Sienna can't remember the past couple of months, if he can convince her to marry him he can have both her and their unborn child in his life. He just hopes that when she does remember, she gives him a chance to explain.

Enjoyed this book very much, both characters were equally matched. The story kept moving forward and not bogged down on thinking of what they did or what they would do. I hope there will be more on other characters in the story.

This book was an okay read. I had a problem with Emiliano not telling Sienna the truth about them breaking up.

I was very taken with this story, I wanted to get back to it as soon as I could when I wasn't able to do any reading! I really enjoyed the plot and how the amnesia turned everything on its head. I felt the pain when the fake engagement was announced and I was dying to know what would happen next (as mentioned above) when I wasn't able to read further due to life interruptions.

Sienna and Emiliano have a emotionally charged story, Emiliano is bound by family duty but needs to decide if family duty or the love of his life is more important. Sienna, having lost her memory, is caught up in a wonderful world but knows there's something not quite right. I love the suspense leading up to the moment of memory returning and the friction it causes.

A wonderful story which I enjoyed very much.

I loved this book! A boss and his assistant are secret lovers. She thinks he is falling for her but would like to keep things professional in the work place, But he is being blackmailed by his family and must commit to marrying another woman.

Oh the angst and the heartache when his lover finds out she is being cast aside! I could have strangled this guy! He broke her heart, and while he later explains his engagement was to be temporary the damage is done, She suffers a fall and gets retrograde amnesia. Of course he is contrite, especially when she finds out she is pregnant with his baby. He takes advantage of her weakness at the time.

A great read!!

Emiliano and Sienna have quite a cold and odd relationship. They have been dating a year and living together for six months. Emiliano is Sienna's boss and she doesn't want people at work to know about them which has caused some friction between them.

We don't get to read much about how they got together and then early on in the story they are splitting up but then Sienna loses her memory after an accident and can remember Emiliano but not much else however, she remembers they are in a relationship so Emiliano sees it as his chance to get her back but even so he worries about what will happen when her memory returns.

They were both closed off characters and so I didn't really care about them much. The story lacked emotion and the ending was rushed and the declarations seemed over the top.

It was an OK read but nothing special.

This is the story of Emiliano (E)'s rocky road to romance with his lover, Sienna. And what a rocky road it was. This book was fun, romantic, sweet and I really fell hard for E and Sienna.

E has some big trouble when the book starts. He is living with his emplyee Sienna and they are heavily involved romantically when he leaves to go see his family and his brother is in a coma. His brother was supposed to marry this girl to satisfy a family debt and when he can't do it, E is forced to date and get engaged to her.

Well when pictures of E and the fiancee hit the press, Sienna dumps him so fast that I became her biggest fan. But E really is devestated and so he does not give up. (You can see why I loved him) That is when in an altercation, Sienna gets hurt and ends up with amnesia. E takes this as his chance to try and make her forget about the fiancee. As you can imagine, when she remembers well the furr will fly and it does.

I totally LOVED Sienna, she was a fiery woman who is strong and very smart. I sorta wanted her to make E suffer more but I loved him too. This was a really terrific amnesia romance and I really enjoyed it.
