Ruthless corporate raider Matthew Farrell was poised to move in on the legendary department store empire owned by Chicago's renowned Bancroft family. In the glare of the media spotlight, it was a stunning takeover that overshadowed the electric chemistry between Matt, once a scruffy kid from steel town Indiana, and cool, sophisticated Meredith Bancroft. Their brief, ill-fated marriage sparked with thrilling sensuality -- he was the outsider who dared to rock her country club world -- and ended with a bitter betrayal. Now, locked in a battle that should be all business, dangerous temptations and bittersweet memories are stirring their hearts. Will they risk everything on a passion too bold to be denied?
This book had it all, from drama, second chances, sweet love to unbearable sadness and forgiveness. Even awesome, strong willed characters. Its beautiful.
This is a thrilling, frightening, stressful, horrible, joyful, emotional, painful and satisfying read.
Such a memorable love story. Really enjoyed this historical romance. It was an amazing reading.
This is one of the best there is. This book is so great that even when you finish reading it you can still feel the story. I love reading about strong characters and this book delivers. You will love this book so much that you will wish it would happens in real life.
This is the first romance novel I bought. The book reminds me of how there are only a few books that really are memorable. I might enjoy a book for a while, but this book I remember after years. I don't think I've read this book 25 years, but I remember how much I loved these characters and their story.
Two things in this book really transported me back to the first time I read it in the early 1990s. First, no cell phones so there are lots of plot points about not being able to contact people. Second, lots of mentions of how much things cost which is so late 1980s.
I give this book 5 stars...!!
