 Review by ✰ Bianca ✰ @BJBookBlogAINSLIE PATON - DETAINEDrelease date -  1 September - 2013322 PagesEscape Publishing - Harlequin Australia★★★★★ 5 big and fat StarsMy Opinion:OMG - can a book be any better than this one???I started reading with not very high hopes - I read the blurb and thought - hm yeah well - this book will probably have 150 pages and the whole book will be in that airport-room and they will have sex and then there will be a happy end!I WAS SOOO WRONG!Yes - we start out in that cold airport room - well no - we don't actually.Darcy is on her way from Sydney to Shanghai for an interview that will either make or break her career as a Journalist for the Sydney Herald. She is supposed to get an exclusive - never been there - interview with reclusive Billionaire Businessman Will Parker from Parker Corporation.But the Shangai immigration people won't let her leave the airport because something is wrong with her Visa. They detain her in a little cold room until the Visa-problem can be cleared.After she's been freezing her butt off in there for a little while - she gets a visitor - another poor guy with Visa difficulties.They don't exchange names - but they exchange so much more. They play a game of truth or dare and they end up telling each other their life stories.Lots of sparks are flying between Darcy and the goodlooking stranger.Before their released from the room 5 hours later they end up on the little couch doing some erotic things ☺ But I'm not telling you what!  ☺When Darcy arrives at the Peninsula Hotel she finds herself in one of those horribly expensive suites - curtesy of her stranger - who she calls Tara - because that's the town he grew up in.They then spend a very sexy weekend together ☺And I don't think I'm spoiling too much when I say that our stranger is - of course - the reason Darcy is in Shanghai in the first place: Will Parker.She's extremely angry when she finds out - and once she's back in Sydney she writes an article. An article that could destroy Wills life and business.And it kind of does.LOTS of horrible and suspensy and heartstopping and moving things happen because of that article!But I'm not telling you any more! ☺WILL THERE BE A HAPPY END??? ☺ I'M NOT TELLING! GO AND BUY THE BOOK!I LOVED IT!!!!!As I said before - I wasn't expecting all that much - and that's the best way to start reading a new book.I was totally surprised.I don't even know what kind of genre this book is! It's not a Thriller - not Erotica - not Romance - but it's all those things and so much more!!!I couldn't put the book down! I was completely hooked from the first pages!I was even crying!!!I loved Will and his sad past and the way he made himself into what he is today.And I felt sooo sad for him when things went horribly wrong.And Darcy - she's a sweet girl - falling in love with this stranger. And then making this one mistake and then trying to make everything right again.There's only one thing that I didn't like: the sex scenes felt a bit cut-off at the end... They start out really sexy and romantic and erotic but then it's like the author was too embarrassed to be a bit more sexually explicit! It wouldn't have hurt the book at all to make those scenes a bit longer ☺ Just my opinion ☺And that's all I didn't like! Amazing, huh? Normally I have LOTS to complain about - even when it's another 5-star book ☺Please go and buy this wonderful non genre book ;)  Let's just call it a Heartbreaking Erotic Thriller!
