***Poppy Hathaway loves her unconventional family, though she longs for normalcy. Then fate leads to a meeting with Harry Rutledge, an enigmatic hotel owner and inventor with wealth, power, and a dangerous hidden life. When their flirtation compromises her own reputation, Poppy shocks everyone by accepting his proposal—only to find that her new husband offers his passion, but not his trust.

Harry was willing to do anything to win Poppy—except to open his heart. All his life, he has held the world at arm’s length…but the sharp, beguiling Poppy demands to be his wife in every way that matters. Still, as desire grows between them, an enemy lurks in the shadows. Now if Harry wants to keep Poppy by his side, he must forge a true union of body and soul, once and for all...***

I started this last night. I think it's going to be one of my favorites. I am so in love with Harry, so far. I think LK was peeping into my brain when she created him.

Will Jake, Harry's assistant, have a story?

I haven't heard anything. It would be nice, though.

This was an excellent book!!!! I just loved it! I'm taking a poll in my review. LOL

I also think that Jake should have a story. It doesn't matter to me if it's a novella or not, let Jake has his moment. That way, we could revisit the Rutledge Hotel staff again.

I'm about halfway done with this book and it is amazing to me how LK can make such different heros. I've read so much about people not liking Harry so I didn't know what to expect. I can see he needs some help in learning how to deal with Poppy. Can't wait to read more and find out how they over come their problems.

Katherine, I thought this was a fascinating look at a newly-married couple. I haven't ever gotten married, but I imagine it's what a lot of newlyweds go through--getting to know each other and working past daydreams about marriage.

I'm reading this series (although in a wrong order... shame on me...) and I loved this book! Just Loved It!
And there was this great scene on p.342, I just have to quote:
"It was a kiss to level mountains and shake stars from the sky. It was a kiss to make angels faint and demons weep... a passionate, demanding, soulsearing kiss that nearly knocked the earth off its axis."

Sigh... Where the hell is my Harry?

Tytti I loved that scene also. I'm sure your Harry is right around the corner. :)

I have just read this book and I loved Harry to death!! He plays the role of a heroic villain so perfectly and it was actually amazing in how he showed Poppy how much he truly loved her when he split Michael Bayning from her. I'm so in love with Harry right now!

Yay! He's one of my all time favorite hero/villain!

Well said, Ronyell!

Thanks Danielle!

I am half way through. Harry is a wank lol but I do feel for him and know he has so much need he will come around.

I agree Jake needs his own story. I really would not mind the chef getting a love story too. :)

Harry was so bad he was good, IMO. :)

Liked this novel.
