After reading and enjoying Mr One Night Stand by this author, picking up another of her books was an opportunity I seized. If you love billionaires, get ready to meet Daniel Lazenby...he's gorgeous.
After walking away from her cheating ex and business partner, Zara Anders is solely focused on building up her own exclusive estate agency for elite clients. So, when the brother of a client tags along with his sister for a property viewing, he's a distraction she should avoid wholeheartedly. However, Swedish billionaire Daniel Lazenby has different ideas…
He's a billionaire playboy, but when he meets the estate agent looking for a home for his sister, it's lust at first sight, or that's what he thought. He likes Zara because she's oblivious to who he really is. Only the longer he keeps seeing her, the threat of her finding out the truth is a risk. After all, with his reputation, she's bound to run...
Oh, how I enjoyed Zara and Daniel's story! I found the narrative relatable within an industry I understand, albeit not high-end. I've always liked male protagonists who wear a suit too. Set in and around London, it's a backdrop I'm familiar with so it was easy to visualise the locations mentioned.
The writing style and pace kept me engaged the whole time with the plot and the characters. Both Zara and Daniel are likeable as the push and pull of their tentative relationship plays out; Zara trying to keep a professional distance and Daniel wanting what he wants...! They're notably supported by EJ (Elizabeth), Zara's personal assistant and Julia Larsson, Daniel's sister who offer more insight into the motivations of the protagonists.
To sum up, if you are looking for a sizzling romance with electrifying chemistry between the protagonists, Mr Temptation should hit the spot and it's a perfect novel to take to the beach during the summer.
