This book is a very romantic trilogy about Mina and Marco.Poor little Mina returns home to find her fiance in their bed with his twenty-something assistant. She goes to a bar frequented by the employees of his architectural firm, with the fantasy of getting her revenge by picking up some handsome stranger and letting all of his friends see her leave with Mr. Hottie. When she orders a 3rd or 4th drink, the bartender looks at her hesitantly, whereupon she informs him that it's OK because she will be calling a cab, and seeing as how she has just found her fiance with his assistant's legs wrapped around his head, she feels another drink is absolutely necessary. After announcing that he never did that to her, because she is frigid, she notices a very attractive masculine hand has appeared next to hers.The hand belongs to none other than the tall, dark and handsome Italian resort magnate, Marco Genovese. She had met Marco a month earlier when her fiance was making a pitch for a contract to build a golf course for one of Marco's resorts. It seems Marco had fallen for her when he had first met her, but had not pursued her because she was in a relationship. With this no longer being a problem, he sets about proving to Mina that she is not frigid, she was just with the wrong man.I loved this story. I really liked both Mina and her hero, Marco. I love the author's style of writing and will definitely read everything of hers I can find. Marco's younger brother, Giovanni, a physicist, makes an appearance in book 3. I hope we get to know him better in subsequent books.
