Clare Connelly grew up in a small country town in Australia. Surrounded by rainforests, and rickety old timber houses, magic was thick in the air, and stories and storytelling were a huge part of her childhood.
From early on in life, Clare realised her favourite books were romance stories, and read voraciously. Anything from Jane Austen to Georgette Heyer, to Mills & Boon and (more recently) 50 Shades, Clare is a romance devotee. She first turned her hand to penning a novel at fifteen (if memory serves, it was something about a glamorous fashion model who fell foul of a high-end designer. Sparks flew, clothes flew faster, and love was born.)
Clare has a small family and a bungalow near the sea. When she isn't chasing after energetic little toddlers, or wiping fingerprints off furniture, she's writing, thinking about writing, or wishing she were writing.

It was a bit disappointing.
It was a bit disappointing, I read reviews being very positive. I'm finding it hard to find positives. The story pretty much is about a broody billionaire, who has had sadness in his life. Enter a very efficient assistant with her own sorrows in her past. Their journey to the HE A was not exactly what you expect, a bit boring and very predictable.

I Truly Enjoyed This Story, But For The Really Slow Start And Not Understanding The H I Would Have Enjoyed It Much More. The Fact That The Epilogue Was So Sweet And Complete Gave Me A Good Enough Ending. Great Story

great book
The book held you enthralled the whole way through. Even though you know it was a HEA, getting there was a joy and a tearful journey.
