His Last Fling (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

What would you say to a man who tells you he must marry in four months? It’s a fate Nathan Longfellow, heir to the Longfellow empire and son to a United States Senator, desperately wants to avoid. His father’s ultimatum – marry in four months or lose his inheritance – is now public and Nathan’s life will never be the same. He loves women and Gloria’s beauty threatens to pull him in. When he tells her he must marry, and she asks him if he is pregnant, his fate is sealed. Gloria Miller knows nothing about empires or the political intricacies of great wealth and power. In her twenty seven years she’s raised two brothers, danced exotically and pulled herself and her brother out of a trailer park and into new and better lives. She manages a bar and goes to school now, and dreams of someday making her own club. Betrayed by men in the past, she is determined to avoid a relationship until her goals are met. She meets Nathan at the wedding of a mutual friend and decides he’s created an itch she just has to scratch. After making sure he is free – she never poaches on other women– she offers him a deal. As long as it remains anonymous, she will be happy to provide him with a buffer between him and other women. In this way she can indulge herself with no risk of a relationship. They seal the deal and discover that love isn't just one of life's grand illusions, it can also be life's biggest joke as well.
