Now this has got to be one of the best Desire books I've read. All the passion and want of Tony and Shannon vibrated on every page. Well done... All I can say is - "Thank you, can I have another?"

D2047 Nov10 Rich, Rugged & Royal #2 and Man of the Month Tony Medina's true identity is leaked on the Internet and pictures dug up and printed and splashed in the tabloids. He can no longer hide his royal family. Shannon Crawford and her child also have to leave their apartment, and she is not happy about leaving. Her deceased husband was a crook who had left her to clean up the mess his Ponzi scheme left behind. Tony keeping secrets about his life and where they are going, to get away from the breaking news frenzy, is to much like her husband's secrets. The interaction with Tony's father, the king, and his sister reveal how the past has shaped the man he now is. Trust is the big issue and comes to a head near the end. Enjoyed this and looking forward to the 3rd brother's story!

I always enjoy Catherine Mann's books she is a good author where I have not read one book that I could term bad. She will always be an automatic buy for me unless something really changes her story telling.
