Million Dollar Christmas Proposal (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
This is a very enchanting book. The premise is intriguing and I was hooked from the start. The cold heartlessness of Audrey and Toby’s parents made me angry. They were given four precious gifts and they squandered two of them. Audrey’s strength of character, intelligence, sincerity, love and inner beauty were inspiring. The fact that she was unaware of the beauty, inside and out, only added to the charm of the story. Toby’s triumph and thriving nature was further testament to Audrey’s nurturing instincts.Enzu was not without knowing it. He had the wealth and power and security they provide, but he was missing that thing that we all need and deserve; someone to love and validate us. It was heartwarming to see his gradual release of total control and his embracing the challenge of true parenthood. Audrey helped him to find and embrace humor, love and the ability to trust another with your heart.They came together; both betrayed by their parents and prevailed. I could not put this book down. The title has Christmas in it, but it is a book/story for any time of the year; a cold winter afternoon or a day by the pool or beach. Enjoy!I received an advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. When Audrey finds out the CEO where she works wants to "hire" and marry a woman to be the mother for his orphaned niece and nephew, Audrey knows this job will help her and her brother. She doesn't wholeheartedly approve of Enzu's idea, believing it will attract the wrong kind of applicant. Enzu may be ruthlessly in control of his emotions, but he changes the job requirements once Audrey applies for the job. Now the woman he chooses must be sexually compatible with him and Audrey is the only one he wants for the role.At first, Audrey and Enzu seem very different with their status and temperament. However, they are both driven to provide and protect their most vulnerable relatives.
