Helen's Review
Dani Collins never fails me with one of her sensual and emotional stories, fabulous characters and wonderful settings and this one was no exception I loved Axel and Joy’s journey to a gorgeous HEA and my trip to Germany.
Axel is a tycoon and has been promised ownership of the company he has worked for if he marries the owner and his enemy’s daughter but there is a twist and now he must work hard to talk Joy into becoming his wife, will he succeed?
Joy has been studying nursing and working in a strip club to make ends meet and provide for her family life is what it is, but when a stranger, a very good looking stranger arrives at the club to offer to marry her and change her and her family’s life and all she has to do is marry him for one year and move to Germany could she do this for her family?
But after one kiss they both realise that there are sparks that need to be put out and their relationship grows for both of them will Axel be able to break down the walls that he has built around his heart after his childhood and caring, loving Joy will she let herself love again after being burned before?
This is one that I highly recommend to any lover of a beautiful romance, I loved it.
My thanks to the author for my digital copy to read and review.
