Happy Publication Week !!!
I was so excited to read this book! This is the second book that I have read written by Marion De Re and I adored everything about it! I look forward to reading more of her work!
This book is so much more than a sweet romance! The whole crime (fraud/embezzlement) and revenge parts of the plot just added so much to this already wonderful story. Ian is working undercover with the FBI to prove that William Weston is responsible for some shady activity going on through the hospital/charity organization that he is involved with. Instead of money going to help the sick patients' recovery, it is going directly into the pockets of these upper class criminals. One of those patients was Ian’s mother who was diagnosed with cancer and had a high survival rate IF her medical bills were paid for the treatment.
Unfortunately, Charlotte (William's daughter) was part of Ian’s revenge plot. She was a college student who was the one who was expected to take over “the family business”. Ian had moved into her building, forced himself into her life and he quickly realized that she was not part of the scam or the effect that she would have on him. Not only did he misjudge her involvement but also her character. She wasn't the stuck up rich girl but someone who was kind, considerate and cared about those around her.
