The Secret One by Ruth Cardello (Corisi Billionaires #3)

 

💙💙💙💙

This is the 3rd installment in the series, if you haven't read the first two, STOP now and go read them!

Each book in the Corisi Billionaires series has lead to what unfolds in this story. Full of unending secrets, lies and romance -- you can't help but be swept away into the drama as you watch it all unravel.

I loved the chemistry between Christof and McKenna from the start, even though they had a rocky beginning. The story line was a little choppy at times, how it goes between more than just the two main character POV's, but hang in there, it's worth the wait.

SUMMARY:

When Christof meets a beautiful mechanic on the side of the road, he knows they're meant to be. His family, however, needs him and his mediation skills in Italy, where decades of secrets and betrayal could cost them everything. His mother is convinced a fiancée would help smooth things over. But he'd be nuts to ask a woman he just met to participate in such a farce.

Men always find something about McKenna they want to change -- her independence, her success, the grease that clings to her after a satisfying day in the garage. So when she starts falling for a handsome billionaire, she doesn't believe it will last. Their engagement is fake, but the sparks that fly when they're together are too real to resist.

If Christof and McKenna trust themselves and each other, Italy will jump-start a love as intimate as it is intense. If not...their relationship isn't the only one on the line.

The Wild One by Ruth Cardello (Corisi Billionaires #2)

💙💙💙💙

The Wild One will have you booking a flight to Paris! This is the second book in the Corisi Billionaires series, and I love how it's a story about the two main characters, but there's still that underlying mystery that's been continuing from the first book...so if you haven't read The Broken One, you'll definitely should before diving into this one.

Wren Heath wants an escape from her boring, stagnant life - so when she meets up with an old friend in Paris, she decides to throw caution to the wind and spend a glorious week with Mauricio Romano.

When the two part ways, under stressful circumstances, they're both forced to realize the extent of what their time together really meant to them.

I adore stories involving self-proclaimed bachelors, who are adamant they'll never change their ways. The best part of the story is by far the Romano family. Their family dynamic are what goals are made of, not to mention how they love to meddle.

This was a wonderful addition to the series, and I'm looking forward to more. Hopefully with more answers about the bigger picture that we keep getting glimpses of in each book!

The Broken One by Ruth Cardello (Corisi Billionaires #1)

💙💙💙💙💙

The Broken One lives up to the title! This story will shatter your heart, then beautifully mend it. It's been a while since I've read a good, heart-warming story that punched me right in the chest and made me cry - but this one succeeded.

Heather Ellis didn't plan on becoming a mom, but tragic events lead to her adopting Ava and never looking back. The love and affection she feels for her is moving, especially the force of protectiveness whenever someone questions her parenting skills or priorities.

Sebastian Romano has suffered a tremendous loss, losing both his wife and their unborn child. The last thing he wants is to become involved in that world again, let alone put his heart on the line only to have it broken.

The author did such a fantastic job of making you feel Sebastian's pain, to the point where you wish you could reach through the book to just comfort him.

Ava is adorable in this story, and quite possibly the scene stealer every time she appears. Her love for the stuffed animals will melt your heart just as if they were real pets.

The only confusing part of the story to me, was the beginning and end...while I'm intrigued by Judy's story and where it might lead, I didn't understand how it tied into the main storyline.

Have the tissues ready and dive in to this wonderful tale of love and loss. It's one of my favorite reads this fall and I can't wait to see what else happens in this series. Such amazing characters, you'll want to read this one again and again.

Summary:
Single mom Heather Ellis would do anything for her adopted daughter, Ava. Even post an online reward for anyone who found the girl's lost stuffed animal. Who'd have guessed it'd be returned by a drop-dead-sexy man with such sadness in his eyes that she had to reach out to him? To Ava, he's a hero. To Heather, he's a fantasy that puts at risk the happy life she's made for herself.

It's been five years since billionaire developer Sebastian Romano lost his wife and unborn child in a tragic accident. Now he's all business. No room for emotion. Until he stumbles across that damn stuffed wolf and the beautiful single mother looking for it. Is he ready to give love a second chance?

But there's more to Sebastian, his family, and his past than Heather knows. More than even Sebastian knows. Will the life they're building together be challenged when the truth is finally revealed?
