This review is from: The Rich Man's Reluctant Mistress (Harlequin Presents Extra) (Mass Market Paperback)

For Lucinda Oliver the men in her life always seem to leave. First her father dies when she's 15, and then her fiancé leaves her for another woman so she's very guarded when it comes to men. Especially when it comes to men like Zane Alexander whose reputation for being a womanizer is renown. A few years ago she was hired by Zane to be his orphaned nephew's nanny and now she finds herself under his employ as a designer for his newly acquired St. Lucia home. Will she be able to resist his good looks and charm?

From the moment Zane Alexander sets his eyes again on Lucinda he is stunned by her beauty. He decides to take some time off and accompany her to his new home because after their brief meeting he sees her as a challenge and he's determined to act on the sexual attraction between then.

Their love story is so full of passion it leaps off the page. It's as if when they finally act on their attraction they can't get enough of each other. Lucinda is one spunky woman and she's so overwhelmed by Zane. When they suddenly have to return to England because again, Zane needs to take care of his nephew she's determined not to get hurt. However, as fate would have it, she succumbs to his charm and moves in with him.

Margaret Mayo has written a winner with The Rich Man's Reluctant Mistress and honestly, you won't want to miss reading it! Rocky road really doesn't even describe their journey in finding happiness.
