Beatrice, an up-and-coming corporate lawyer, is looking forward to taking some much-needed time off during a long weekend stay with her cousin Holly and her family, who are hosting a charity ball at their country house, along with some extra house guests, officers from her uncle's regiment. On arrival, Beatrice is faced with Benedict, a charismatic but obnoxious army captain she had met the previous year, whom she loathes. She's startled to realize that she and Benedict have explosive sexual and romantic chemistry that will change their lives. Inspired by Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, this novel takes Beatrice and Benedict's witty bantering to a whole new level.
Emma Perle grew up on a farm in Essex, England, where her love of horses, dogs, and romantic fiction first began. A lifelong reader with a passion for heartfelt storytelling, she now writes the kind of love stories she has always adored—filled with emotion, hope, and happily-ever-afters. With the patience and support of her own real-life romantic hero—her husband—and their two wonderful children, Emma now has the space to let her imagination soar and bring her stories to life.
Ooh Benedict!!!! 🙈 with all sort of shades of Mr. Grey, Benedict kinda gets your back up at first and thinking he’s just a smarmy, up himself but seemingly gorgeous and irresistible guy. Once his walls are broken down here is revealed a very sexual being that Beatrice tries her hardest to resist, eventually giving up her futile attempts, letting herself get swept away in a sea of sexual awakenings and new feelings. Not for the faint hearted or those who are going to moan about the graphic content on some of the pages!!! There is an 18 warning on it! If you can handle it, give it a go. You will love it!!
