Book Review: The Millionaire’s Proposal
When I read this book somewhere mid-2012, I did not even know what exactly is a mills and boons books are all about. I had this one small book shop near my college which I used to visit on every Saturday and used to buy new releases or old classics.
I was looking for a good romance fiction novel after having a hangover of reading Nicholas Sparks Novels. The Owner of the shop suggested me 3 to 4 books and “The Millionaire’s Proposal by Trish Wylie” was also one of them. That’s how I learned about Mills & Boons book and “The Millionaire’s Proposal” became my first read of Mills and Boons Romance.
Now, coming to the story…
Kerry Doyle, our beautiful charming and compassionate heroine is on a trip of her life time. She has decided to travel the world alone! But she soon meets Ronan O’Keefe, our handsome hero who not only is seated very next to her in the flight but is also an extra ordinary traveller and a travel writer. On a spur he offers to be her private guide through the journey and requests her to share her experience so that he can use it for his next travel guide book.
Kerry decides to take up the offer, offered by a complete stranger and thus the unforgettable journey begins. What Kerry never bargained was falling for Ronan. But Ronan though he as also fallen for the charming and beautiful Kerry Doyle, he is trying to keep his distance from her because of a secret.
Can Kerry and Ronan, trust each other and bear the secrets? Can they work out the obstacles and have a happily ever after? Or will Kerry leave Ronan for keeping secrets from her? To know all this you have to read the book.
I just loved the whole journey of Kerry and Ronan thoroughly. I loved their banter and Ronan’s easy-going nature. He truly is someone who can sweep any girl off her feet with just his smile and charm. I liked how he kept a mask of being happy just for Kerry when his life was about to change and he knew there was nothing he could do about it.
Trish Wylie has done a fabulous job with this book. The hero here is not your usual Alpha male. He is just as normal as a guy can be. The heroine Kerry also has her own mind and does what her heart says. Their love, struggles, confusion and hurt all seem real to the readers and that’s why the story connect with them.
With just around 186 pages, Trish not only gives us an amazing love story but she also takes us to some exotic places. Her description of places is so crisp and neat, the readers are bound to put them in their list.
I will definitely recommend each and everyone to read this book. With just 186 pages this book can be your weekend getaway. Go on folks, grab a copy and start reading.
I give this book 4.5 stars.

Surprisingly good for a Harlequin romance.
I'd somehow missed the fact that The Millionaire's Proposal was a Harlequin's Romance, and as I unpacked the book found myself groaning inwardly. Yes, I was prejudiced and wasn't expecting much. Imagine then my surprise when I found myself totally blown away by the book – not only enjoying it, but actually giggling and sighing along as I read! Harlequin Romances have come a long way since I was first introduced to them 15 years ago!
Kerry Doyle is on the trip of a life-time - a trip around the world! Only... how great is it to travel all alone? She quickly realizes that joys are better shared, and that no matter how wonderful the experiences she has, they will be just a bit bland, a bit empty, when experienced all alone. Fortunately for her Ronan O’Keefe, globe trotter extraordinaire, offers his services as he promises to take her on a privately guided tour of the world, on the condition that he is allowed to use her experiences for the next guide book he is writing. Sounds like a win-win situation, right? Kerry throws caution to the wind and decides to follow this handsome stranger, trusting her female intuition to guide her through.
What she hadn’t counted on was being swept off her feet by his charms and falling head-over-heels in love with him. Nor that he’d fall for her as well. But they each have a secret burden to bear; do they dare trust each other with it and give their whirl-wind relationship a chance?
Trish Wylie provides her readers with romance when it’s best. No bare-chested heroes, no busty damsels in distress who has to be rescued from a villainous monster, but simply a man and a woman who happen to meet up at the right time at the right place. They’re real people, whom you and I can identify with without problems. Combining this with Trish’ fantasy-inducing descriptions of the exotic places Ronan and Kerry visit and you end up with a novel that has the reader sighing to go explore the world for herself.
The Millionaire’s Proposal is the perfect book to disappear into on a rainy afternoon and just escape the hum-drumness of everyday life for awhile.

This is a review I hoped to post weeks ago but my Sony Reader went AWOL (lo-ong story!). Reader and I are now reunited so I'm getting back on track.
I always enjoy Trish Wylie's books. They're full of charm, wit and tender romance. This story is no exception. I LOVED it. I'm not likely to go on a worldwide trip anytime soon so I soaked up every description and experience that heroine, Kerry, shared with the gorgeous Ronan. This in itself made The Millionaire's Proposal a keeper, and there's so much more to come.
I need to be careful not to spoil the plot in any way so all I will say is that I empathised completely with Ronan's problems because I've felt the same emotions. Trish Wylie handled the story with skill and integrity. A gorgeous and emotional read.

Wonderful, emotional tale of Ronan, a travel guide author, who is slowly losing his eyesight. He meets Kerry on a plane and winds up hiring her to join him on a three month excursion around the world. However, he does all he can to hide his condition from her. This story will leave you wanting more of Ronan and Kerry. Definitely a keeper!
