Friendship, passion, love

Bound by the Marcolini Diamonds is book two in Melanie Milburne's The Marcolini Men. It will make the reader think how far and to what lengths one would go for a friend. It's an incredibly moving and magnificent story with one hot Italian alpha and a sweet Australian nanny. Milburne has written an incredible love story, one with a battle of wills and temptation. Sabrina is a sweet woman who adores children and in her profession as a nanny has been wrongly accused as to having an affair and breaking up a family. Now on top of everything else, she's lost her best friend and her husband in an automobile accident. She and Mario Marcolini have been made co-custodians of their surviving baby Molly. Sabrina has only had one other experience with the sexy and ruthless billionaire Mario and wonders how she will carry out her friend's wishes as she is now unemployed and lives in Australia while Mario resides in Italy. A short meeting with Mario after the funeral, she realizes he plans to take Molly to Italy and with his low opinion of her and all of his money, she wonders how she will play a part in Molly's life. It's very obvious Mario has deep feelings for his departed friend Rick and feels an overwhelming responsibility to Molly. Even though he's not to keen on Sabrina because of the scandal she's caused, he realizes he needs someone to care for the baby and since she has all of the qualifications, the looks, and the body he decides the only option is a marriage of convenience. Of course it's secretly one he's looking forward and he's hopeful theirs will be a physical marriage with all of the benefits. He's also determined once Molly is older he will compensate Molly for her time and they will end the marriage. However, Mario realizes after a passionate kiss he's never felt anything like it; the fire of the kiss and her touch. Even though his parents had a happy enough marriage, he wasn't sure he wanted the responsibility or that sort of emotion in his life. Can Sabrina survive this marriage? He constantly brings up the alledged affair and she can't understand why he won't try to understand that it was a set-up. Surely being in the press like he was should make him understand how things get twisted around? One thing she's sure of is that women come and go in Mario's life and he's holding all the cards. As one can well imagine, there's a lot of emotion in this vibrant love story, loss of their best friends, loving Molly as they both do, their shared passion which taunts them both and the roller coaster emotions on top of everything else, a lot to take in and digest for them. So when they act on their desire and Mario realizes she inexperienced, can you imagine how he feels and that he got it wrong by believing the worst of Sabrina? Both of the books in The Marcolini Men were exceptional and Mario and his brother learned valuable lessons about their women, valuable lessons we should all learn like trust and believing in each other
