He has provided the money and means for the actual mining of the diamonds, as well as the production after the diamonds have been extracted.
Eva Skavanga, Britt's middle sister, is as fiery tempered as her red hair suggests and is opposed to Roman's plans as she's a hardcore eco-conservist and is worried that the mining will scar and ruin the beautiful Arctic Roman Qusiveda is the Italian count who is another member of the consortium he was introduced briefly in the first book of this series. Eva Skavanga, Britt's middle sister, is as fiery tempered as her red hair suggests and is opposed to Roman's plans as she's a hardcore eco-conservist and is worried that the mining will scar and ruin the beautiful Arctic and would rather concentrate on eco-tourism.
The two of them already don't like each other since meeting at Britt's wedding and are clashing even more over this issue. After getting into an argument with her sister's over her attitude and handling of this, Eva sets off to Roman's private Italian island he's there to attend his cousin's wedding to confront him and make him listen to her concerns. He is livid to see her there first meeting was funny- she decides to go for a swim in his pool in her underwear and gets caught red handed after threatening to throw her off the island, agrees to let her stay at his home because that way he can keep an eye on her and figures she will be less likely to cause trouble for the mine.
He drags her to the wedding reception where the guests just love her and the two of them end up sharing a dance and kiss and decide that it's probably best to just give into the sexual tension between them all the while she's totally freaking out because she's self conscious about the fact that still a virgin at her age, especially with the rep she has for scaring men away with her personality.
But things don't really go according to plan Also both of them have some things about their pasts that have caused them to be the guarded, strong willed individuals they are. Parts of the book made me laugh she turns into a nymphomaniac after losing her virginity to him but the actual romance of the story seemed lost.
It was pretty rushed and I didn't really feel a connection between the two characters.
They have a night together and she's suddenly in love but he's decided to back off after they have misunderstanding and suddenly after being apart for 2 months he's had an epiphany about how he loves her and has to be with her. Maybe it's the fact the book was pretty short- the actual story being a little over pages. Oct 17, Ada rated it really liked it.
Sadly this wasn't it again. This book is better than the last Harlequin book I read a couple of days ago but it still is pretty blah and this could easily fall into the catagory of a DNF kinda book. I did finish it though. Characters seemed very 1 dimensional.
Another way to sum it up is think of a vein running through your body and then think of the little capillaries that are fed by your veins. This story starts off traveling along the vein and then goes off numerous times into capilleries before jolting back to the vein and continuing the direct path.
I hate that in books, I don't want waffle and when a conversation happens I don't want to be reading it still 4 pages later when it could have taken half a page Sorry but I'll have to keep searching, all I can say to Harlequin is, I can understand why a lot of people avoid books under their publishing like the plague - sorry - harsh - but it's how I feel.
Mar 04, Samantha Millicent rated it did not like it. I have read many other books by Susan Stephens and really enjoyed the great majority of them.
This one, I found very disjointed and a little perplexing. There was reference to the hero and heroine having had some sort of altercation at the heroine's sister's wedding? The heroine shutting the door on his face or something?
I'm not sure what caused that. Did I miss a huge hunk of pages or was this simply a reference to something that the reader was supposed to follow? Was I simply too tired when I I have read many other books by Susan Stephens and really enjoyed the great majority of them. Was I simply too tired when I read it, because I found myself turning back pages, trying to find references to things, wondering what the hell was happening and why quite a few times.
I highly recommend this read for all Susan Stephens fans!

It's just left me shaking my head. Because I've like this author, it hasn't put me off her work entirely, but if I get another one like this it will be the last purchase. If I'm wrong, my apologies and can someone set me straight with a page number?
