I've only read a couple of books by this author but haven't had a 'bad' story yet. Will always grab for this author's books just to check out.
It's always good to at least expect a good short from someone for the $5 you will be spending.

I know it sometimes can spoil the drama, but I usually like to know at least a little of each characters big secret at the beginning, and this book does that very well (she had his secret baby, he has amnesia). Plus, he reveals his secret to her pretty early on, which makes him much less of a jerk.
I liked both of the main characters and well as her friends. Plus, the son is well written. (I really hate it when an author uses "kid speak" when writing a child. A little...more

Kate fell for a race car driver, Cristiano, four years ago. He was in a near fatal accident on the track after they spend a wonderful night together.
Four years have passed and Kate has a son. She will not move on with her life until she knows there is no possibility of a family with Cristiano. She has tried to contact him on several occasions without much luck, until she gets invited to his return to the track party.
They see each other, he follows her and they spend sometime together in a cabin....more

This is one book I wish was longer. I actually liked these characters. A lot.
It was a nice change to read about a race car driver instead of the numerous Greek tycoons. And I love this author's style. She has a good and clear language, her characters are warm and likable, and the plot is actually believable. These characters are "normal" unlike the tycoons who have mountains and mountains of money.

I looked for this book--not readily available in the US--on the basis of several reviews I read online. Once I bought it, I was afraid it wouldn't live up to my expectations, but it more than did. In many ways, Her Last Night of Innocence is an old fashioned Mills & Boon/Harlequin romance. Cristiano is a famous, gorgeous race-car driver who's used to women throwing themselves at him, more than happy to be his one-night anything. Kate is the shy virgin who doesn't know how beautiful she is, w...more
Kate couldn't believe that happened to her. She was supposed to interview the famous car racer, but they connected. They talked about themselves, something Christiano rarely did, and one thing led to another and they finished in bed. It would've been a happy ending, if Christiano didn't have a car crash on the track next morning that resulted in memory loss. So when Kate couldn't get to him she went home, heartbroken and pregnant.

I didn’t want this book to end!!!! I have always loved India Grey’s books but “Her Last Night of Innocence” is by far my favorite one. I loved reading about Cristiano Maresco, a famous, gorgeous, rich race car driver and Kate Edwards, a shy virgin who doesn’t believe that she is beautiful and is unable to understand how a man like him could ever even look her way!!!
Their story is filled with pain, sorrow, love and the joy of finding each other’s true soul mates after so many obstacles that faced...more

This started off well, but I couldn't buy into Cristiano and Kate’s relationship. It moved a little slowly at times. The descriptions and internal monologues seem to just drag on and on. This is my 2nd book to read by this author and I have noticed that she has nice ideas plot-wise but the end result is flat and monotonous. The lame sex scenes and the bad epilogue didn't help either.
3.5 stars. My first time to read an HP by India Grey. Very enjoyable, but with a few loose ends and in need of an epilogue. I wanted to know if there were any consequences for the PA who seemingly kept the knowledge of his son from him. His sudden abandonment of his career for his family felt rushed. Will definitely read more from this new-to-me author.

Not a bad one, and not quite as dark as some others by India Grey. The premise that everything changed for Cristiano after their first night together wasn't very realistic to me. And really the idea that they were in love with each other in the end isn't very believable either if I think about it, but I was able to suspend disbelief and go with it.
Check out my review and a teaser here: http://frommetoyouvideophoto.blogspot.com/2012/02/feasted-on-secret-she-cant-hide-by.html
I read this under the other title and I did like the novel but I found it sad that it took so much effort to try and tell the hero that he had a son. I mean talk about overkill. It was sad in that aspect.
This book was perfectly entertaining except for the derogatory view of race car driving. I'm not a fan of racing myself, but I don't like when entire professions are dismissed so summarily.
India Grey is one of the best newer authors in the Modern series line and her books keep getting better.
Fabulous. One of fave Moderns of all time. India Grey at her very best.

I was surprised by how much I really liked this book. I just wish it was longer.
Very sweet. The ending was a combination of schmaltz and F1. Nifty.
So good. I love Harlequin for a good romance infusion quick.
did not like the end very much
amazinggggggggggggggggg
3.5 stars :)
I would give this a 3.5 but that wasn't an option.
Good Read. Lots of romance.
this is my 2nd book to read by this author, i have to say i just dont understand why she has to kill or make so many people ill. i was not even going to give her a 2nd chance and i should have stuck with that. sad story the end was basically happy.

India Grey was born in England, UK. A self-confessed romance junkie, she was just thirteen years old when she first sent away for the Mills & Boon Writers' Guidelines. She can still recall the thrill of getting the large brown envelope with its distinctive logo through the letterbox, and subsequently whiled away many a dull school-day staring out the window and dreaming of the perfect hero.
