Good lord.  First let me say this book is just like a thousand others written for Harlequin back in the 1980's.  He's rich, she's poor, he manipulates her into doing what he wants. Yada Yada. This woman was a spineless jellyfish. The thing that bugged me most about this book was the editing, or lack thereof.  (And this was the second version?) In most of today's romances, both sides of the story are told.  There is a brief try at that with this one, I think there two paragraphs from the hero,  and he is never heard from again.  The hero is never really introduced, his name is just mentioned in the middle of a sentence.  He owns a huge corporation, then he is a Count, and his aunt is a Countess. But his uncle married to that aunt is not a Count. Then the title is never mentioned again. Huh?  Then there is the grammar.  I think this was edited by someone who has English as a third or fourth language.  Example, "Oh, but there are plenty of things none of you doesn't know about me." and "She shouldn't be pulled into this holy mess at all."  (I think that is UNholy).  I gave this one star just because the errors made it funny.  It was an old, predictable story, with more holes in the plot that Swiss cheese. Unless you like laughing at the grammar, don't bother with this one.
