I thought this story was going to be bad, based on some of the reviews here, but I was wrong. This story was wonderful, the heroine is not a doormat, and the hero is a jerk sometimes but I have read worse. All-in-all if you want to read a sweet story, then this one is it!
Powerful, intense and prideful

Rico stole my heart. This man was such a powerful character and oozed sexual charm. Waiting, waiting was Gia whose love ran so pure and deep. This was an incredible love story, one I read more than once.
Another Winner!
