Kate Hewitt has the
knack of creating memorable heroines which stay with the reader long after they
close the book. And heroes who are
vulnerable and yet alpha. What a
skill! It's enviable.
A former street kid
and a self-made millionaire, Sergei Kholodov is intrigued by Hannah Pearl, a
sunny side up American girl from a Podunk town. Her optimistic outlook attracts
him. Their chance meeting on the streets
of Moscow changes the morose man forever and leads him to believe that things
could, in fact, be different.
Hannah herself is
endearingly vulnerable. She’s so sweet,
though. Exactly the kind of woman you’d
love to have as a friend. If you’re a woman
yourself, of course. And the hero? Well in spite of having gone through some
horrendous, abusive experiences, you don’t so much find yourself pitying Sergei
as admiring him. Will Hannah be
Kholodov’s mistress? Or something much,
much more?
I read this on the run
and made time for it. Because the story
literally demanded it. As Kate Hewitt
romances go, this is my all-time favourite.
As this review appears, the book is probably out of print. But the ebook will, of course, be available.

I received a print
copy of this book in return for an honest review.
