In this story, Diana--the stunningly beautiful protagonist--has suffered a bad marriage and the scandalous death of her husband, ending up wounded and distrustful of men. Her late husband's stepbrother Devlan, a highly successful and handsome businessman, suddenly shows up in her life with the pretext of taking care of Diana's daughter Hannah's affairs, as the child is left an inheritance.

Then, a few months later, when Hannah is badly hurt in a car accident, Devlan shows up again and takes the mother and daughter under his wings. In the meantime, the attraction and love affair between Devlan and Diana has become central to the story. What follows is the heightened tension with a whole slew of mistaken actions, assumptions, and miscommunication on both sides.

At times, this story turns into a fairy tale romance with the male lead too good to be true and the female lead too harebrained because of her false pride and foolhardiness. A few coincidences together with some of the twists in the story felt concocted to me, and although I felt annoyed with Diana's actions, I still kept on reading, since the story flows well, and I became curious about how the writer would tie up the plot.

the main character. I was enjoying the book until the main character started getting on my nerves somewhere at midpoint. Her distrust of men took many forms and odd directions.

is Collette Scott. Forever Sunshine is her other book.

it is an absorbing story that takes unexpected twists and turns, if you are willing to overlook a few blemishes.
