Description
British hotelier Ian Gregson had it all – wealth, good looks, power, and a share in his family’s worldwide, multi-billion dollar luxury hotel chain. His very name was synonymous with sophistication and elegance, and any woman he wanted could be his with just a look. But the only woman he truly desired was strictly forbidden to him for too many reasons to count.
Tessa Lockwood was young, beautiful, and lonely, despite the fact that she was a married woman. Her life had not been an easy one, and the extravagant world she caught glimpses of as an employee of the Gregson Hotel Group was far beyond anything she could ever dream of. She could no more imagine herself ensconced in that sort of luxurious lifestyle than she could attracting the attention of her handsome, debonair boss.
Ian and Tessa secretly long for each other from afar, never daring to reveal their forbidden attraction to the other, until circumstances bring them together in a very unexpected way. And from that point on, nothing will stand in Ian’s way to finally make her his.
AUTHOR’S NOTE – despite what you might be thinking at this point, there is NO cheating in this story – just an incredibly romantic hero who will make you swoon with the way in which he sweeps the heroine off her feet!
Advance Praise
This
is just a beautiful journey of discovery for Tessa and one of the most romantic
and simply heartwarming books I have read in a long time. I love the multiple
voices in which Janet writes this story and the different perspectives fill out
the story nicely. It is also a stand alone and although there is some reference
to things that happen in an earlier book, it isn't necessary to have read that
to enjoy this truly stunning story. And can I just say that Ian will make even
the coldest of hearts melt - his words and emotions at times are absolutely
heart stopping! And I forgot to mention it's pretty hot too!

The
part when Tessa and Ian first get together after working in the same building
for two years was so hot! I was hooked to the kindle with mouth gaping and
drooling, chanting OMG, OMG! I am so going to try that with the printer
cartridge! And for those still worrying about cheating and her husband Peter,
don’t worry. All is sorted and clear by this part. But I won’t spoil it – you
just have to read this.
The relationship was beautifully developed and kept me enthralled to the very
last page. The interaction with the secondary characters just added to the
gorgeous love story evolving.

This book is amazing!!! It’s sorta long but in a very very good way. The story builds and the author created this romantic world for them that is just so amazing to read about. It’s not pretentious and it’s not really sad (except Tessa’s history) but just a truly romantic love story. This book is a definite MUST READ!!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE
