Over at the Pink Heart Society last week I talked about my resolutions and goals for the New Year - one was to read more. I've set myself the not-impossible aim of at least one book a week. To hold myself to account, I'm going to tell you all right here what that book was each week :) And I'd love it if you share with me what you've been reading too!
And yes, I'm a little past the first week already (I did read it last week, but didn't get to blog it. Blame the deadline). Anyway, when it came to picking a first book of the year, there was only one author to turn to.
I was very saddened to learn that Penny Jordan had passed away just over a week ago. I never had the privilege of meeting her, but I have read so many of her books. She was an absolute inspiration to me as a writer and as a reader, I adore her work. There was a lovely tribute to her over at the PHS.
So my first book for 2012 was The Most Coveted Prize - a 2011 release from Penny Jordan, featuring one very ruthless hero and a sweet heroine who learns to deal with him. I read it in one sitting and loved it.
The Most Coveted Prize.His latest acquisition…
Russian oligarch Kiryl Androvonov has one rival: billionaire Vasilii Demidov. Luckily, Vasilii has an Achilles’ heel – his younger, over-protected half-sister Alena...
Kiryl’s master plan is to seduce the tantalisingly beautiful Alena. Then, once he’s had his fill, use her to blackmail Vasilii for the contract that will complete his business empire. It’s a winner-takes-all situation for the Russian tycoon, as Alena herself might well be the most coveted prize of all.
Until she discovers just how ruthlessly Kiryl has been using her…
