The Italian Billionaire's Secretary Mistress (Modern Romance) (2009) - Plot & Excerpts

I loved the book. Yes the Hero is an ass but soon learns the error of his way. I did not feel the Heroine had no guts. I believe until she saw her self as the gorgeous sexy women and the man she covetted for years sees her in the same light she had no idea the power she held. She wanted to be the perfect assistant. This made her strong! this is what made her worth not how he treated her. when she realizes.she wanted more and it was not satisfying her need to succeed she stood up to him. It was not that red dress that made things change it was only a catalyst. Sometimes it takes a small drop of water to overflow a dam and it burst. The preverbial straw on the camel's back. I usually love the Pygmalion - or "Makeover" - theme, but Riccardo is kind of an a$$hat in this one, breaking it off too many times, changing the understanding of their "relationship" - working or otherwise - too many times. Alternating between cavalier, snarky, possessive, patronizing, to downright cruel at times. Angie is also suppose to have ESP with regards to his sister's history. At least she learns to speak up to him. Still, I'm not sure I would have stayed his secretary, let alone his lover. Acceptable groveling scene at the end and good epilogue, though.
