Getting Over Harry
Gallant to the rescue!
So Harry decides he's chosen the wrong sister just as they're about to walk down the aisle; that doesn't make Emily a romantic failure. As her best friend, Meg Dellin Dillburg, sees it, Emily just needs a long holiday and a gorgeous guy who'll make her forget about Harry!
The holiday's the easy part; persuading Emily that another romance is the best cure for a broken heart is a tall order even for Meg.
That is, until Lyon Gallant comes on the scene. He's rich, he's cute--and he's determined that Emily's going to get over Harry whether she likes it or not!

Getting Over Harry By Renee Roszel
Emily Stone was left standing at the altar, alone. Harry had wanted her more exciting sister instead. Her best friend Meg shifted them off to Sin Island. A privately owned island by the illusive playboy Lyon Gallant. Meg was making it her mission to make a more worldly woman of Emily and thought Lyon would be the perfect teacher. After all the man was a walking sexual seduction. But could Emily really throw out all her values to be with someone who didn't care about her?
This story is told from Emily's POV only, which is good as it would be tough to read what Mr. Handsome was up to. Emily does learn a thing or two from the man and becomes much more content and stronger in who she is. This story shows how so often we have a strength within ourselves that has been hidden or stifled as we try to be what others expect us to be. Nothing like a tropical island to open those doors and let those hidden characteristics run free.

This is a fun read with lively banter, a sexy hero, and a blossoming heroine. This is a bit of a coming-of-age romance, though Emily is 25 and newly jilted at the alter. With pushes from her best friend, Emily takes the plunge and asks a strange gorgeous hunk to have sex with her. There's something really special about Emily and Lyon's happy to give her sex lessons. Lyon is a drop gorgeous playboy, but he's not a cad. So when Emily realizes that she can't go through with lesson four, Lyon faces his first ever turn down. I loved Emily and Lyon's journey to a HEA.
