My rating: 6,5/10 He's a sexist man who makes assumptions without checking if they are true. I don't get how he can be a successful businessman, he's so childish. The romance doesn't feel realistic.
MISUNDERSTANDING, FINANCIAL GAP When he hears that his gullible brother is marrying, a rich businessman wants to check out the bride to protect him from gold diggers. The woman he meets is a hostess, but when he sees her without make-up, he falls for her and wants her for himself.

Xavier Lauran has pursued Lissa from the moment he walked into the Soho casino. The last thing she needs is the dark, lethal sexuality of the Frenchman. But she can't resist.... Xavier has woven a web of deceit to catch her! And now he's trapped her--he'll ruin her!

Loved this story to the Core! Especially the heroine. She's bold, Blunt, hard-working, smart, Sensible and more importantly, SELF-RESPECTING! the qualities most of the shoujo or josei heroines lack. I'm So happy I finally came across this one! A 'must-read' for all harlequin lovers. You definitely won't regret it!
It's good and the plot consistent. However, as with every Harlequin story, the conflicts easily caused and overcome. Anyways, good story. I recommend a read.
