My first read from this author and I really enjoyed it.
Her heroine is smart, strong and spunky. She is no one’s pushover. And the hero is an alpha male without the ott control issues. He’s got some sensitivity and insecurities, but they enhance his masculinity without making him act like an ass.
Coral, the h was a budding fashion photographer that had just graduated college, and won a contest that won her the chance to do a fashion shoot for a fabulous fashion magazine. The photo shoot was for the magazine owner’s brother’s wedding. She would be photographing the bride to be.
She’s all excited grateful and thrilled that she has this opportunity to make a name for herself fresh out of school. Enter the H, Raffa. He’s has reservations about a novice doing this shoot. He plans on putting a stop to it until he meets Coral.
He whisks her off for an impromptu “interview”. The attraction between them zinging through the air. They both try to keep it professional but he seduced her before long and they end up having really hit shower sex.
Then his adopted brother drops a bomb and Coral is thrown out, in shame. She did have THE best exit scene I have read in an HP. It was amazing!
Six months later, Raffa decides that he was wrong to dismiss her the way he did and sets up a meeting under the guise of a possible position with a publishing house he’d recently acquired. Imagine his shock when she walks in, huge belly preceding her.
From that point Raffa is forced to open his eyes and see the truth about his adopted brother and make decisions that he should have made a long time ago.
I liked the way the author resolved most of the conflict throughout the book. My only complaint is that she left Coral’s decision about her inheritance unresolved. Leaving the author to wonder.
I enjoyed the heck out of this book and recommend it highly.

Coral Dahl, a twenty-four-year-old rookie photographer, is on her way to the Island of Hydros with a team of professionals from Heavenly magazine to photograph Salvatore Di Visconti - heir apparent of Argento Cruise Line - and his fiancée, Kyla.
Raffaele (Raffa) Rossini, CEO of Romano Publishing empire, and brother of Salvatore, is also there, as their chaperone. It's his magazine, after all. How they came to be brothers is quite another story, they are of the same age.
This is my first Bella Frances read. Ooof... Her descriptions.
He dreams about seducing her, all the while thinking that she reminds him of someone. And he also jumps her, which was just ugh... And it can't get more twisted than Carol's senior, Mariella, being Raffa's ex, and all three working together.
The sex scenes are erotic. But Salvatore had to ruin everything, he is always clinging to Raffa.
After knowing what Salvatore had to tell him about Coral, Raffa removed her from the island and his life, after a single session of shower sex, even though it was killing him to do it (removing her, I mean).
There is a six-month jump in the storyline (that explains and goes well with the cover!). After investigating the entire issue, Raffaele is disappointed at the man Giancarlo Di Visconti had been, and the person Salvatore is, protecting only his millions and caring about nothing else.
I felt so sad for Coral.
It was all too cold, always talking about the estate, and business, and finances. Always the talk of inheritance made the chemistry go away between the main characters.
The heroine sure had guts to stand on her own two feet and the insistence. She's not one of Harlequin's typical doormats, but then, neither of the main characters were endearing. And it all started from somewhere in the latter half of the story.

But the slow nod of his head as he checked them all out was like a caress. His voice, when he spoke, an embrace.

Salvatore’s voice was carrying through the house, bouncing off the marble and echoing on every wall and surface. Splitting Raffaele’s head open with his venom. His uncontrollable jealous poison.

Because the indolence and deceit he so despised in others were choking him now.
I felt so sad for Coral.
But that was never to be, and now that she knew who her father was she felt utterly isolated, completely unwanted. Lost. She felt lost.

My first read by this author. Sort of ordinary. I didn’t really feel much chemistry going on here. The hero was all about his family which basically consisted of a step brother he couldn’t stand. So all his hand ringing didn’t feel true or necessary. It was just weird. The heroine was okay I guess.

The H was a good character.
I actually liked the storyline. I really liked the H. But the h I just couldn’t stand. At first I did. Then she started the I’m a feminist and so it gives me a right to be b!#*?y crap. I felt more sorry for him than anything. Even at the end, still didn’t like her.

Bella Frances is fast becoming one of my favourite Harlequin Presents/Modern Romance writers. She writes bold, striking, sensuous and captivating romances with delicious Alpha heroes and kick-ass heroines you cannot help but cheer for. In her latest novel, The Consequence She Cannot Deny, she has penned a first-class page-turner full of glamour, passion and seduction I couldn’t bear to put down!
Coral Dahl is a talented photographer desperate for her big break. Having spent most of her life looking after her ailing mother, when she gets a job as a fashion photographer for a high-end magazine, she is absolutely elated. Finally, she can show the world what she is made of and prove to all the doubters and nay-sayers that despite her very humble beginnings, she is as good as any one of her competitors. Although she has to leave her fragile mother behind for this job and travel to a private Greek island, Coral refuses to let her insecurities and worries get in the way of her job and is looking forward to wowing her bosses with her photographs. But there is just one problem: Coral hadn’t counted on Raffaele Rossini, the sexy owner of the the Greek island and the magazine she has been commissioned to take pictures for, who makes it clear that he wants a professional for this shoot and not an amateur like her!
Coral is absolutely heartbroken that her dream seems to be over before she has even been given the opportunity to show what she can do. But as luck would have it, there is nobody else available at short notice, so rather than pack her bags and head back to England, Coral finds herself having to put her best foot forward and wowing Rafa with all she’s got. But it is not her skills with the camera which Rafa seems to be concerned with as he begins to find himself unable to stay away from her. Under the sizzling Greek skies, giving into temptation soon proves inevitable and Rafa and Coral soon share a red-hot night of passion together. However, when he uncovers the truth about her identity, an incandescent Rafa casts her out of his bed, brands her a gold-digger and vows to blacken her name in the industry, ensuring that Coral never gets another job as a photographer ever again. But what Rafa does not realise is that their night together had consequences – and that forgetting Coral, the first woman to get under his skin in a very long time, is easier said than done!
Rafa might have tried his hardest, but he simply cannot get Coral out of his mind. Unable and unwilling to spend another moment without her, he tracks her down in London – only he is shocked to his very core when he founds out that Coral is pregnant with his baby! Rafa is determined not to let Coral out of his sight and not to miss a moment of his child’s life. He wants to give his baby the best possible start in life, but as his feelings for Coral intensify, is he ready to take a leap of faith and a chance on love?
After his abysmal treatment of her, Coral wants absolutely nothing to with Rafa, but when she realises that she has fallen head over heels in love with him, will she find the courage to tell Rafa how she really feels about him? Or is she destined to spend the rest of her life loving him from afar?
Bella Frances has outdone herself with The Consequence She Cannot Deny. Sparkling with fantastic characters, witty repartee, red-hot sensuality, heart-tugging drama and powerful emotion, The Consequence She Cannot Deny is a fun, feisty, feel-good and sexy read that is packed with plenty of heart and heat. A sensational tale about redemption, renewal and healing from the past, The Consequence She Cannot Deny is a story of love, trust and courage that is wonderfully written, wholly romantic and absolutely irresistible!

Bedded, banished, pregnant! Talented (photographer) Coral Dahl can't afford any distractions on her first major photoshoot she was hired for because of winning a competition. But the beauty of her location-the private Greek island of Hydros-is nothing compared to the lethal charisma of its owner, tycoon Raffaele Rossini! A charisma that wary, innocent Coral is powerless to resist... After the most heavenly night she’s ever spent, she’s devasted when she’s banished the next morning. Infuriated she strips out of the finery Rafe provided outside. After returning home, Coral is astonished to discover her family is scandalously entwined with Rafa's, and that she has a claim on his inheritance. The man that raised him as his own when his parents died fathered Coral and left her mom penniless. Branded a gold-digger, she's dismissed from his bed and his life. But the biggest surprise of all is that their one night of rapture has had unexpected permanent consequence, Matteo!

This book is a combination of the 'secret baby' trope, and the 'i don't know my father, but he turns out to be a rich guy' trope, and the 'secret step-brother' trope - then you'll love this.
The plot is slightly crazy sauce. A photographer, brought up by a solo mum who won't tell her who her father is*, wins a photography competition. *It's rich guy. At the competition, she meets the step-brother of a rich guy, add in tension, and sex. Then the rich guy's heir finds out who she is, and they suspect her of knowing who her father is, and throw her out.
Oops, she pregnant, but mad at step-brother guy, so doesn't want to tell him. He finds out. Tension, accusations. He tells her who her father is. Drama. HEA.
A fun read.

I hate to give up on a book but I struggled to finish this one and finally gave up at around 90% when heroine (after finding out who her father & brother were) was adamant that she didn't want a single penny from her father's estate nor Hero but changed her tune into a money grasping b...ch because she was envious that the Hero had so much money and nice things and she didn't. To be fair, after reading this caption she may have given up on that idea of "getting what was rightfully hers" (in terms of money from a father & brother who never wanted to acknowledge her existence) but I no longer cared. It was a story that just didn't hold my attention or have likable characters.

This is one of the most boring reads I have had in a long time. It was over 70 pages in before Coral kissed Raffaele, then they went for a quickie in the shower and he kicked her off the island the next morning, because he found out she may be his adopted fathers illegitimate daughter. Then 6 months later he looks for her and it just keeps dragging. This book is going to the library.

A passionate read with a hero that needs to be brought to task and the heroine that just might be able to do it.

A great read with the typical Harlequin Presents storyline. Humor, romance and love. I just wish there was more closure at the end.

As far as I know, Dahl is a Dannish, not Swedish surname.

Oy, these two dummies. IDK, the dude did not even begin to grovel sufficiently for the way he acted. He had good intentions, later, but what a fucking jerk.
