Lynne Graham was born on July 30, 1956 of Irish-Scottish parentage. She has livedin Northern Ireland all her life. She grew up in a seaside village with her brother. She learnt to read at the age of 3, and haven't stopped since then.
Lynne first met her husband when she was 14. At 15, she wrote her first book, but it was rejected everywhere. Lynne married after she completed a degree at Edinburgh University. She started writing again when she was at home with her first child. It took several attempts before she sold her first book in 1987 and the delight of seeing that first book for sale in the local newsagents has never been forgotten. Now, there are over 10 million of her books in print worldwide.
Lynne always wanted a large family and has five children. Her eldest and her only natural child is 19 and currently at university. Her other four children, who are every bit as dear to her heart, are adopted. She has two 9-year-olds adopted from Sri Lanka and a 5- and a 3-year-old adopted from Guatemala.
In Lynne's home, there is a rich and diverse cultural mix, which adds a whole extra dimension of interest and discovery to family life. The family lives in a country house surrounded by a woodland garden, which is wonderfully private.
The family has two pets. Thomas, a very large and affectionate black cat, bosses the dog and hunts rabbits. The dog is Daisy, an adorable but not very bright white West Highland terrier, who loves being chased by the cat. At night, dog and cat sleep together in front of the kitchen stove.
Lynne loves gardening, cooking, collects everything from old toys to rock specimens and is crazy about every aspect of Christmas.

From 1 to 10 (My personal rating scale): 7.5
I don't remember to much about the story. It is a short book (58 pages), so maybe I will reread it soon.

Short and sweet but definitely one hell of a read. I really liked this novella and I can't say I'm surprised. After all it is Lynne Graham!

This story hits all the things on my "really hate to read in romance" list: Greek multi-millionaires, secret babies, multi-millionaires with receptionist girlfriends, nasty alpha heroes, stupid misunderstandings that could've been taken care of with just a few words.
I understand that I've drifted away from Harlequin Presents styles of contemporary romances for a very good reason. Don't get me wrong, I get that there is an audience for them. It just isn't me. Why, you ask, did I buy this? I actually didn't. This was in the Harlequin magazine that someone gave me shortly after it came out. It's been sitting on my shelf waiting for my attention, but with a theme of Billionaire Romance, I knew it was going to be a hard read for me so I kept putting it off. Stories like this is why.
I still have two more in the magazine to read, so I'd better get to it. 2.8 out of 5.

This is a sweet novella from LG. I liked Leos from the start and I understand Susie's insecurity which led to the misunderstanding. But Leos could have demanded that she explain the reason why she dumped him 18 months earlier. Despite that this is a wonderful LG mind-candy read. Short, sweet and a happy ending without too much angst.
However, if you are looking for a similar book and want the angst, passion hurt, betrayal etc then read Michelle Reid's The Ranieri Bride - this book is an angst trainwreak.

Very standard LG, but sadly nothing to make it stand out for me.

this was a typical story, but as usual good. it was way to short & wished the characters would've been fleshed out more hence only 3 stars.

I know it's a mini story, but still, it doesn't mean you could wrote it half-hearteadly. That's the impression I got after reading this story. I usually like Graham's book, but her short stories always disappoint me. I've read many short stories that's so much better than this.
The story is pretty standart (well, yeah, it's harlequin after all). The characters are behaving like a child. What happen talk civilly like adults? Their conversation always end up in shouting match and one of them storm away. The heroine is really stupid that if I were the hero I don't know if I could forgive her.
The time span is too long for a story with this lenght. If you make it just two or three days, you could make a more weighted(?) story.

สั้น ๆ ดี ไม่ต้องใส่เยอะ
นางเอกเข้าใจผิด ก็เลยบอกเลิกพระเอก โดยไม่รู้ว่าตัวเองท้อง
(พล็อตลินน์มาก ๆ .. ไม่รู้ทำไมยังอ่านอยู่อีก 555)
พระเอกมาเจอนางเอกอีกที ก็ตั้งใจจะกลับมาคืนดีกัน
พอสุดท้ายนางเอกรู้ความจริงว่าตัวเองเข้าใจผิดมาตลอดอีก
ก็ปรับความเข้าใจกัน แฮปปี้ ..
สนุกกว่าเรื่องอื่น ๆ ที่ยาวกว่านี้อ่ะ

Note to anyone who has downloaded this book after purchase from Fictionwise is that the name of the author showing on ereader is Julie Miller.
Probably a programming error so I made a note of it so I do not get anymore confused then normal.
I was a good read though.

Short and Simple. No melodrama but a nice read. A mellow work compared to other works by Lynne Graham.

It seems to end abruptly, they argue slot and jump to conclusions alot. Not the best story.

Great short story

I didn't like the story much..Yes, it is a short story but still it is not well executed..I felt as if the chapters were incomplete before going to the another chapter..It could have been written well but...Short stories of Lynne are not as good as her other books..
