    About this ebook



    "I'm having your baby."

    They were words she would never speak to her lover, Ryan Blackstone, Australia's richest gem dealer. For Jessica Cotter was his secret mistress, with him only for torrid sessions behind the drawn drapes of his bachelor bedroom. She had no future with the man whose mantra was No kids, no carats. Though she knew the rules, Jess had broken them. Now she had no choice but to walk away from Ryan unless the man with a heart as hard as diamonds could learn to love her back.

      I was bored in a few parts to be honest but I think overall the the book was a good read and I liked that the author gave sometime for the story to close instead of having the characters make up and The End.
    • 3/5
      Acceptable read. But kinda boring though. I read the preview but it wasn't what it says to be. But anyway, can go ahead and read it. No bitches involved. ?

      Don't waste your time. / He treats her like crap and she has absolutely NO backbone and continues to allow him to treat her like crap. I kept reading thinking the writer would give her some self-respect and I finally gave up about 2/3rds of the way through.
