This author is fast becoming one of my favorites, and with good reason! Each time I sit down to read one of her books I know I am guaranteed a brilliant plot, fast paced romance of the hottest kind and lots of delicious make me want to cry my eyes out emotion.
In this her latest read we get to meet Addison Reed, she has lost her fiancè, but she will not stop at making sure his legacy is protected. Only she has a little bit of a hiccup in her path, that hiccup comes in the form of drop dead gorgeous and truly arrogant landowner, Bruno Duarte, Brazilian millionaire extraordinaire!
Bruno does what ever it takes to thwart Addison at each and every turn and refuses to meet with her, so she is left with no other choice, the man needs to listen to her and so HE WILL!
But aside from Bruno having to duck and dive Addison he has a much bigger problem, his perfect plan to return to Brazil and marry in order to fulfill his father's dying wish, has gone spectacularly wrong with the bride dumping him, and then he is stranded with an idealistic woman hell bent on saving a tribe of people on his land, then suddenly the perfect solution dawns, if feisty and passionate Addison aka his abductor agrees to a bogus marriage then he will relocate the tribe, she'll be happy and so will he.
Only this perfect plan has a flaw, the growing heat of desire is just as hot as the heat from the long Brazilian nights they are to share , and the only subject that remains is a simple one, give in to each other and abandon all plans or let their differences tear them apart.
I am not completely sure where exactly to start my review about this book, because it was all just too incredible, but the first word that comes to mind is wow, just wow! Carmen Falcone has outdone herself! The read was so super hot and so super sexy I had goose bumps with each word and action being described.
I wanted to crawl inside this read and stay there deep in the heart of the Brazillian heat! The character of Bruno was of course incredibly yummy, but the poor man has not had it easy, and I truly felt sorry for him. I loved how the author let him be just as set in his ways as Addison, can you say tension explosion, why yes , yes you can, and it was awesome!
Addison was a really cool, fun and feisty heroine that just makes you wish you could be near her just to see her blow Bruno and his plans out of the water, really great writing was done with this character, and it made for excellent reading.
I am taking away a very nice and clear sounding message from this read, opposites attract but that we all know already. But what if you are not as opposite as you think and instead a compromise can be found to satisfy you both? Sounds like a great plan, but how to make it work? The answer is a simple one, look inside your heart for there lies the true answer as to who is with you and who is against you.
I highly recommend this read for all fans of hotter than hot, sexier than ever before, smoking fast paced and truly emotional reads.

Carmen Falcone gives us another great read. This story involves Addison Reed who lost her fiance, and Bruno Duarte a Brazilian Millionaire. Have you ever been attracted to someone who is absolutely all wrong for you? The chemistry between Addie and Bruno is in one word explosive. She starts off wanting to save the Kwanis Tribe and ends up also wanting Bruno.
What I enjoyed about this book is that the couple fights their attraction for each other but the pull is there. I detail that Carmen gives us about Brazil is amazing. As a reader you can see the imagery in your mind. Once I started reading this I didn't want to put it down. It is a novella of sorts but easy to read and thoroughly enjoyable. Enough romance if you're into romantic novels but there are other parts to the book that are enjoyable. Friendship, loyalty, and love. It's hard to say more without giving the whole story away, but you will enjoy it.
