"Wonderfully portrayed emotions!"
Elaine Stuben is experiencing a very difficult time in her
life. Her husband died recently and her failing internet
business has been bought out by millionaire Mitchell Rath.
She's lost everything. Even her two-million dollar home.
Her father-in-law blames Elaine for his son's death even
though he died in an accident which had nothing to do with
her. Bills are piling up and she really needs to get a job - but
first Elaine and her Aunt Claire have to clean and vacate
the mansion for the new owner who is scheduled to arrive in
two weeks. Of course, life has a surprise in store for
Elaine and things obviously won't go as she may have
hoped. Expecting a delivery from the grocery store, Elaine answer
the doorbell only to find none other than Mitchell Rath,
otherwise known as 'the vulture', standing there in his
Armani suit and hand-sewn Italian loafers, ready to move in
weeks early! Not only does the sexy tycoon expect her to
share the same roof with him for two weeks, but he also
persuades her to make a deal with the devil. He'll sign the mansion back over to Elaine if she'll agree
to get him an audience with her father-in-law, Paul
Stuben. Elaine, for all her anger at Mitch under the
circumstances, is tempted to accept even though it's no
secret Paul won't give her the time of day. Nor can she
deny the powerful attraction that simmers between her and
Mitch every time they're in close proximity. Renee Rozel's new Harlequin Romance novel, THE TYCOON'S
TEMPTATION, is an entertaining novel readers of category
romance are sure to enjoy. Full of interesting twists, the
story line keeps the attention focused on the main
protagonists right to the end. Elaine was a great match for Mitch. I enjoyed reading
about their struggle with the attraction brewing between
them and their subsequent love for each other. The author
has done a marvelous job, as usual, of painting an
intriguing picture, complete with in-depth characterization
and a rich flavor for the setting. Ms. Rozel's talent for portraying magnificently drawn
emotions and arresting narration is emphasized very well in
this highly recommended romance!
