Giving my brain some rest...

Ugh, I hate June!! It`s exam period here in Slovenia, which means...no romance books for me! Only 500 pages or more of accounting and other boring stuff :( But sometimes I just can`t help myself. I take a break and it`s usually for some rereads of short simple Harlequin romance books. Yes, I know, the titles are dreadful! But sometimes the stories are worth reading. Like, for example, Lynne Graham`s books. Here are some of my favorites:

Ruthless Magnate, Convenient Wife

Billionaire in need... Sergei Antonovich, a Russian billionaire, was famous for being knee-deep in stunning supermodels and aspiring actresses. But not one was suitable bride material. Would he ever grant his ageing babushka her dearest wish and present her with a grandchild? Of a bride and a baby... So, why not handle this challenge as business? Without emotion, but with a contract of convenience that granted him the perfect deal: a wife he’d bed, wed, get pregnant...and then discard...

The Petrakos Bride

Maddie idolized Giannis Petrakos, who had lavished money on the charity that had cared for Maddie's twin sister and was sinfully gorgeous. Now Maddie has a lowly job at Petrakos industries. Soon Giannis demanded she be his mistress, for as long as he wanted her. Because when Giannis finally married he wanted a wife more suited to his wealth and class.

Damiano's Return

Missing Husband Found Alive! Damiano Braganzi is back! Damiano - the husband whom Eden had thought she'd never see again. Eden and Damiano had been married only a short time when he disappeared, and things had not been good between them. So, though Eden knows her love for Damiano is as strong as ever, she fears that he will want a divorce... unless she can overcome her hang-ups in the bedroom.



The Vengeful Husband

The hunter: Darcy Fielding, a single mom, decides she must ADVERTISE for a husband! But the consequences of one night of unforgettable passion are about to return to haunt her. The husband? Gianluca Raffacani has finally traced the mysterious beauty who disappeared from his bed. She is advertising for a husband - his perfect opportunity for revenge...Only, Luca finds he's married the mother of his secret child!

The books are pretty good. The plot usually consists of a wealthy tycoon and a virgin, who have one night of passion. That leads to her getting pregnant and him making a marriage proposal. Simple but fun if you need to relax and just give your brain a rest. 

My rating for all Lynne Graham books is somewhere between Not bad... & Loved it!
