A raíz de que su padre se encuentra gravemente enfermo, la atractiva e inteligente Lauren se ve obligada a pedir trabajo al empresario Philip Whitworth, un hombre sinuoso, que le consigue un extraño empleo, en una empresa de la competencia y con el único objeto de realizar espionaje industrial. Para complicar las cosas, en su nuevo trabajo Lauren se enamora de Nick Sinclair, sin saber que es el principal rival de Philip y que a causa de ello se verá atrapada en una dificil encrucijada. Awesome in an "Hah, the 80's" kind of way, but on its own merits, not actually very good. It's obvious that McNaught found a formula that worked for her and really stuck with it. The settings of her books vary, but the character types (and even the major plot points) are always pretty much identical. Not that I'm complaining, necessarily, but it's something that is glaringly obvious when you've read 2 in very quick succession. V tomto románu autorka dokazuje, že umí mistrovsky vyprávět romantické příběhy nejen z historie. Mladá dívka Lauren je okolnostmi přinucena přijmout zaměstnání v podniku svého vzdáleného příbuzného, bohatého průmyslníka Witwortha. Ten ji chce zneužít pro průmyslovou špionáž v konkurenčním podniku Sinco a žádá po ní, za patřičnou odměnu, aby se v něm nechala zaměstnat jako sekretářka. Lauren má k takovým praktikám odpor a proto přijímací pohovor pokazí. Seznámí se však při něm s mladým zaměstnancem Sinca Nickem, zamiluje se do něj, a aby mu byla nablízku, místo sekretářky nakonec získá. Oh my god what can I say about this book ! It is one of those books which I can never get bored with! I really never thought reading would be this much fun and entertaining.Having known no other author apart from Jane Austen I had no idea about Judith Mcnaught books or her writing. This was my first contemporary romance novel and what a great book to start with I was mesmerized. I must say I got obsessed with this book for weeks…hmm..no months I guess. I just love everything about this book from characters to story. Nick and Lauren will be my all time fav romantic couple. I loved the possessiveness of Nick towards Lauren which came to him unknowingly. He will be my favorite novel hero after Darcy! About the writing part I just don’t have words to describe, the way Judith has written, the emotions the intensity just came alive with each characters. She is a genius when it comes to writing about human emotions! Can’t believe this book was written before even I was born! From this novel she became my favorite author. I got so obsessed that I went and purchased a paper back so that I can read when ever I want! (I have already read this book twice)! There is song a called "sex on fire by kings of leon" when ever I listen to that I just close my eyes and this whole novel plays in my mind. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
