About the author
Maxine Sullivan
206 books78 followersI have to say that I pretty much blame my mother for all this. If my dear Mum wasn't an avid reader of romance, then I might not have fallen in love with romance novels myself. And then I wouldn't have decided to write my own romances. Thanks Mum!
Of course, I never thought it would take me 20 years before I saw my first piece de résistance in print. Perhaps I wouldn't even have tried, but you know, I think I still would have reached for my dream. Romance novels offer such wonderful affirmations about love and relationships that I can't imagine not wanting to share my stories with others.
I currently live in Melbourne, Australia but over the years have travelled to New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. In my own backyard, my husband’s job ensured we saw the diversity of the countryside, from the tropics to the outback, country towns to the cities. I find it very fitting that I sold my first manuscript on January 26th 2006, which is Australia Day in my country.
Since that fateful day I have had 12 books published, selling almost a million and a half copies worldwide in as many as 17 languages. I'm also published in short stories worldwide in national magazines.
I am married to Geoff, who has proven his hero status many times over the years. We have two handsome sons and an assortment of previously abandoned animals.
I'm always happy to hear from my readers. For me, it really is a pleasure to be here.

Maxine Sullivan brings her "Australian Millionaires" series to a close with a powerful, passionate, and poignant love story in "The Executive's Vengeful Seduction"! While this is an extremely sexy romance read, it is also a very deeply-felt reunion of two lost lovers. Gabrielle Kane walked out on her relationship with Damien Trent, and told him not to follow her. Five years later, still smarting from her departure, Damien seizes upon a business matter involving her father's company as a way to bring Gabrielle back into his life. Damien's reaction to Gabrielle is immediate and intense, and he soon manipulates her into marriage as a means of helping to save her ill father's business from her unscrupulous cousin. Gabrielle is just as affected by Damien, and she had a good reason for leaving him when they were young. She had an even better reason for staying away--a reason her cousin uses in a blackmail attempt. Sizzling sensuality, secrets, and sentiments all come together in an unforgettable love story! Highly recommended!

After reading this book for a bit I had to check the date on it. I was sure it had been written in the 1980's. I was shocked to see it said 2007. Very antiquated ideas! Damien was WAY controlling and Gabrielle LET him! None of their motivations ever made sense! *SPOILER-ISH* Why did they think they needed to get married? Just give her the shares. Why do they keep talking about "making love" if they supposedly are married only for convenience and animal attraction? Also her "dangerous secret" that could destroy all her relationships was not dangerous at all, it was sad. I don't know why she would think that her losing a baby should be some huge secret that would make everyone hate her. She was so afraid for it to be revealed that she was willing to leave her parents and husband so they would never find out. Silly! The dialogue at the end of the book was cheesy enough to make me say ick out loud multiple times! And I am a girl who expects a little cheese in her romance books.
