Great love story. I did not want it to end.
you cant go wrong with Linda Howard, even her early books are still very good.
I'm soo glad that I have read other Linda Howard books before I read this one. I enjoy her as an author, but if this had been my first book from her, I doubt I would have read another. Corny, cliched, dated. I could not stand the poor, fragile heroine or the macho hero, so I ended up speed-reading through the book. I could not finish it fast enough. Even the ending was corny.
He was the most fascinating man she'd ever met . . .
Claire Westerbrook found it hard to believe that Max Conroy was truly interested in her. Then she discovered he wasn't -- he just wanted information about her boss. Max was studying her company for a takeover and had decided the quickest way to make it happen was through her.
Now Claire wants nothing to do with a man who could deceive her with so little remorse. But Max isn't leaving Houston without acquiring everything he wants. And that includes Claire .

She didn't let any man close enough. He didn't let anything get in the way of his job leading corporate takeovers. But he needed information and planned to seduce her. It was simple, until his loyalties were put to the test and she dared to let down her defenses. Now they're playing for the highest stakes of all.
very good
Claire Westerbrook finds it hard to believe that handsome Max Conroy can be interested in her. Than she discovers he used her to get information on her boss so that they can takeover his company. Good story.
Not my favorite LH.

I'd like to start by saying that I loved this book so much that now I'm trying to get this book in hardcover so that I can add it to by library. I love books and this one was a keeper.
This book is in a series and I haven't read the other book yet, but I can't wait to read it.
Their were many parts in this book that made me cringe, want to cry, and laugh. Claire Westerbrook is a beautiful woman who feels like she's below average. She feels like she can't compete with the females in her family or those around her. Max Conroy is instantly in love and protective of Claire from the moment he meets her at a party. Those feelings don't diminish if anything they increase.
It's unfortunate that Max is there to gathering information about Claire's boss in preparation for a company takeover. It's surprising and most unwelcome when he finds himself falling in love with Claire. He wishes he wasn't, but he can't deny that from the beginning she was meant to be his. Even after Claire discovers the truth and wants nothing to do with Max, he's not willing to let her go. He knows he hurt her and he' willing to do anything to make amends. He's dominate, protective and at times overwhelming. Still no matter how much she tries to deny him she can't help but still love him.
