They are beautiful. They are rich. They are strong willed and successful. They have everything, but love. And each one of them has a dark secret looming in their past.
Sophia is a 25 year old Brazilian widow. Intelligent and ravishing, she flees from her own country after a tragic incident. Hiding from everyone and everything, she remains alone, torn between the love for a dead man, the torment of living without part of her memory and the fear of moving on.
Ethan is one of the most important tycoons in the steel industry. As the memory of an awful evening in his adolescence haunts him night and day, he keeps looking for an elusive woman whom he could love - and who would love him - as he never has in all his 35 years... Until he finds Sophia.
Alistair is a 34 year old powerful banker, searching for one–night stands with women who will warm his bed. And that he can punish physically to abate his anger for his late wife's black deeds and his own guilt for being such a debauched man for so many years. Any woman will do, and he has many to choose from, as they all fall instantly for his manly, devilish charming ways.
In Europe, in the months after October 2009, their paths will cross and clash. Who will win the prize of love?
First of all, I’d have to say that this is definitely a
great series. Never have I ever read a book with so much description in it.
Everything was written with so many details that I was able to clearly imagine
the scenes in my head. In my opinion, this is the kind of story that will keep
a person reading all night long, not wanting to stop because you just have to
know what happens next.
However, pages upon pages of what the characters wear, what
they have for lunch and dinner, which does nothing to move the plot kind of
made it feel a little bit draggy. But aside from that, I’d say that it was a
pleasant read for me, especially after going through the second half of the book
where the plot started to develop and I get to know the real story of each of
the main character.
This is a story that revolves around three extremely rich,
powerful and GOOD LOOKING people in search of the one thing they lack in life,
which is love. And oh, not to forget, the hot sex scenes were finely written.
It was very, very hard for me to read it in public as I’d have to stop reading
it few minutes before I was able to get up of my seat and walk away, if you
know what I mean. Hehe
Personally, I think that this story proves the saying that
‘Money can’t buy you happiness’ as although all of the main characters are
ridiculously wealthy, there will always be that emptiness inside them that
could only be filled by love.
Lastly, I do have to say that ending the book the way
Cristiane did was a bit annoying as I was just starting to really get into the
book. I do understand that it was a cliff hanger, though, and as I’ve told her
before, if the next book is not going to come out anytime soon, I would be
really really upset.
So yeah, I totally recommend all of you readers out there
that are looking for a good romance series to get this book ASAP and start
reading it because I assure you that it is definitely worth reading.
Good!!
