Customer Reviews

4.75 stars! Graham certainly knows how to tell a story!

From the back cover: ONCE HIS MISTRESS...NOW HIS BRIDE! Milly doesn't remember Gianni D'Angelo. All she knows is that she was found after a hit-and-run accident, pregnant and with her memory gone. So Milly is horrified when she learns that she was once Gianni's mistress...and now he's claiming her little boy is his son! Gianni's solution is simple marriage! My thoughts: What can I say, this is the third book I've read of Graham and so far I have not been disappointed. This book had the drama and intensity and it was definitely a fast read - coz I wanted to know what was going on and how it would get resolved! It was such an interesting mystery, as to how the heroine ended up being amnesia and of course, after she recovers her memory. Wowweeee! And of course we have the poor hero (SPOILERS ALERT!!!) who wants to have his revenge but is thwarted at first because she doesn't remember him! Anyway, I took out .25 star because I felt the hero got off a little too lightly considering the heroine was totally blameless and she suffered a lot. Grrrr... But then again, he did search for three years and did all these other thoughtful things. Eh, bottomline is: This book is another KEEPER! ^_^

Spirited and mature

I couldn't find this book in English except in large print format, beware. Milly has amnesia -- can't remember who she is, nor who fathered her little boy. An accidental airport meeting, and the mistery is solved. Her boy's father is Sicillian tycoon Gianni. And she was Gianni's lover for two years, before she got hit by a car and disappeared. Well, Gianni's the rat who wouldn't commit to her even when they learnt that she was pregnant. But four years later, he knows better. If you like spirited heroines, then this one is a book for you. Milly may appear a wimpy doormat for the first few pages, but that's only because she's amnesiac and guilt-tripped by her fake family. Once she gets her memory back, she's ready to throw plates at her distrusting beloved. Gianni may be alpha-male and all, but there's no question Milly has the upper hand in their relationship. She won't accept less than she deserves, and Gianni darn well learns to communicate. The characters are more mature than Graham's usual; it's easy to relate to them and the problems in their relationship. Excellently done.

Sexy, Entertaining - a great read

I loved this story. The characters are full of life, 3-dimensional with many character traits. Whilst the plot was far-fetched,the reader will find themselves going along with it, because you want to see what happens to these characters. Definitely one of Graham's best novels.

Sparks fly

I loved it when the heroine, Milly throws plates at the hero, Gianni. This was a fabulous read and I'd recommend it to everybody.

A great, fast read!

I really enjoyed this book. It was a pretty unbelievable story I will admit, but the characters were very good. It was pretty emotional. I felt feally bad for Milly when she found out about her true identity. Gianni wasn't always the most sensitive guy, but I think he was still a good character. If you like Lynne Graham books, you will enjoy this story.
