The five stars is really for the first book, which I LOVED. Darcy and Luca(The Vengeful Husband) could be my favorite romantic couple of all time. And Darcy's daughter Zia was too cute. "Bad Man!" Too funny. The other two stories were filled with almost too much angst. And I can't say I loved either hero. I did like how ther heroines of this series were not push overs and really whipped their men into shape. Lastly, I could have done without all of the references to Maxie's beauty in Married To A Mistress. She's a gorgeous model-we get it.
A Rainy day book......*sighing with a smile*

THOUGHTS: i really enjoyed all 3 stories in this book and thought they were well written.Lynne Graham has proven over the years that she is the Queen of Harlequin Prensents series, this book is entertaining, fun & romantic... ABOUT BOOK: Nancy Leeward cared deeply for her goddaughters, but how had those three foolish girls repaid her love? Maxie was living with a married man, Darcy was a single mom, and Polly was being paid to bear some selfish man's child. Nancy was determined to force them into happiness . . . by stipulating in her will that her millions would only be bequeathed to each of them if they married within a year, and stayed married for six months. . . . But Darcy's advertisement for a husband that would suit her godmother's terms turned up the shock of her life in The Vengeful Husband And Polly agreed to act as a surrogate mother, but found herself stalked by a father with marriage on the brain in Contract Baby Maxie furiously informed Angelos that no matter what his claim on her, the next man she lived with would have to be her husband in Married to a Mistress

This book is a combination of 3 books. The first one is about a woman who needs to marry in order to keep her home and the man she hires is a man she had a one night stand with 3 years ago (the father of her child) the same night a priceless ring went missing from his home. So, he is out for revenge, and she doesn't know why. They fall for each other, of course, and the ending is incredibly romantic.The second book is about a surrogate mom and the father who finds her. He wants custody of the child and under British law the only way to ensure that would be to marry her. Of course she needs a husband to claim her inheritance. Despite the obstacles and deceptions they fall in love.The third book is about a woman who was blackmailed into living with a married man and the man who wants her for himself. He marries her so he can have her and she can claim her inheritance. Again, there are deceptions and misconceptions. Through it all love prevails.All three books are warm and the fact that all the men are foreign (Italian, Venezuelan, Greek) makes it all the sexier. Truly, a great read.
