** spoiler alert ** Re-read - changed to 2.5 stars.

This isn‘t one of her better books. It is rather old and some of the old romance chliches appeared - the worst being were the h got almost assaulted and the H not only saved her heroically but told her perhaps it was her own fault, because she gave him signals. Absolute no go, no matter how old the book.

Both MCs were rather hard to like and I didn‘t warm up to Carlo at all. He was pushy and arrogant und had an ego the size of a country, also a manwhore before he met h. The h is no push over as almost always with Nora Roberts heroines, even in her old stories and that is always a plus. A smart, determined and ambitious woman made the mediocre story bearable.
Also I liked how they solved their conflicting the end - which of course happened way too fast and ridiculously easy, but the way they did pleased me.

And basically nothing happens at all, even how their relationship changed from an affair to being lovers was bland and easy going. Despite a little conflict in the end, that simply has to be there, because otherwise, how could the reunite and declare Their neverending love at the end?

All in all mediocre and to be honest- perhaps a lot of nostalgia regarding this author happened here. She got me into reading romance when I was a young teen and I adore this genre since then. I forgive Nora Roberts A LOT of shit even her superficial and boring stories, when I know she can do so much better.
