Can an arranged marriage lead to love?


Gabriella has lived on the Martinez estate since she was a young girl, and has had a crush on their oldest son, Lorenzo for just as long.  Now twenty-four, she is being forced to marry Lorenzo in return for her father's gambling debt to Carlo Martinez, Lorenzo's father.

Gabriella doesn't want to marry Lorenzo since she thinks he is only marrying her to fulfill his father's wishes, but as they begin spending every day together in their new home, Gabby is finding it harder and harder to not make this marriage more than just a convenience.

Lorenzo has wanted a chance to get to know Gabby better for years, and now that she is his wife he is having a hard time keeping his hands off of her.  But he won't be the one to make the first move, unless provoked.

When things finally start looking up for the couple, trouble starts brewing between Carlo and the son of another "FAMILY".  Can Lorenzo protect his wife and himself from being caught in the crossfires?


This was a quick read for me, and an enjoyable one at that.  We dive right into the marriage and get to see how the Hero and heroine met through flashbacks.

I loved the sparks of chemistry that ignited any time these two were around each other, and there are some VERY HOT love scenes......thank God.....after all that sexual tension, i think we were all excited for the release!!

The great things about this book is that it had me on my toes.  I had NO idea what was going  to happen next and whatever I thought was going to happen, was completely wrong.  In this case....I love to be wrong. 

So if you are in the mood for a little fun with the "FAMILY" and some Smokin' Sex in the living room, by the fire, in the shower.....then you NEED to read this book!!
