Maxine Sullivan

Back Cover:

He must marry or lose control of his empire. But no ordinary wife would do for Australian tycoon Alex Valente. Emotional entanglements were to be avoided; physical attraction was essential.

Struggling designer Olivia Cannington certainly fit both of his requirements… most especially the latter. And she was in such desperate need of his funds, perhaps the beauty would even agree to the second part of his marriage ultimatum: give Valente an heir…within a year.

Favourite Scene:  (I always love a scene where, even when angry, the hero makes sure the heroine sleeps beside him)

And then her heart sank just as quickly when she remembered how fast he’d turned away. Angry, she got out of bed and made for the spare bedroom, where she tossed and turned some more. She must have fallen asleep eventually, for she awoke as the bedside lamp was turned on.

She groaned and pulled the blanket up over her head. “Turn the light off, Alex.”

He didn’t answer.

Suddenly the blankets were thrown back and she was being scooped up in his arms. Her eyes flew open. “Alex?”

A pulse leaped along the hard line of his jaw. “You’re my wife. You sleep beside me.”

Maxine Sullivan has done it again! Another excellent book she wrote that I truly enjoyed!

The Tycoon's Blackmailed Mistress is one of those you should put on your book list. It is a fun, interesting, sexy read!

Briana Davenport is the "face of Blackstone", she needs one million dollars to bail her father out of trouble. Jarrod Hammond, her employer's sworn enemy has been interested in Briana for years. He is willing to give her a million dollars on the condition that she agrees to be his mistress for 3 weeks.  As they get to know each other, Jarrod does not want their affair to end.

This one was so good. It was nice to see the relationship between Alex and Olivia develop. It was nice to see Felicia grow up. Some sadness through the story, but handled well. I am guessing we might see more of the Valentes in the future???

Well, this is the second book in the Australian Millionaires.  I found this book to be better than the first one.  Flynn is such a likable Hero, so protective and sweet.  Gosh, I think I feel in love with him myself!  I loved the story and the romance was great!!  Con't...
