Book Review: Christmas Angel for the Billionaire by Liz Fielding

-
Autor: Liz Fielding
Published November 10th 2009 by Harlequin
Lady Roseanne Napier has always been in the media spotlight for her high-profile charity work. Now Annie needs a break from being the “nation’s angel” and for just one week she goes undercover…and immediately runs into trouble in the shape of George Saxon.
Christmas Angel for the Billionaire is a very short holiday romance. Annie is famous and needs a few days for herself, so she plans an escape that not even her family knows about, but it's all messed up when her car brakes in the middle of the road.

George is in the middle of a family crisis, his father is at the hospital and his daughter has been expelled from school. Annie calls to his family's business asking for help, and his daughter makes him help her. Annie and George like each other, but first they need to (quickly) solve their personal problems to have their happy ending.

Annie needs to be more confident and sincere with her grandfather and herself, and leave her Christmas trauma behind. George needs to be closer to his daughter, be a good father, and forgive his own father.

The characters are complex and the story could have been longer, but it's too short and everything happens fast. A couple of pages and kisses after, they were ready to spend their future together. It's not really believable, but it's a cute and innocent story to read in a couple of hours.

    Hmm I'm not sure I really liked rushed stories. If it' going to be a short one at least have some time jumps in there to indicate they've been together a while. :/ I don't think I'll read this, under two stars is a pretty low ranking.

    Short stories do make believability difficult. Thanks for sharing though.

Welcome to the Banned Books Week Hop giveaway! Hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and I Read Banned Books . I don't believe in banning books (or anything at all). I believe that we are capable of thinking for ourselves and we are able (and have the right) to choose what we want to read/see/think/believe. The Banned Books Week is basically a week where readers decide to defend their right to read whatever they want. It's the perfect week to decide four yourself it you want to read read that book some people is tying to challenge or ban... Intellectual freedom—the freedom to access information and express ideas, even if the information and ideas might be considered unorthodox or unpopular—provides the foundation for Banned Books Week. BBW stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints for all who wish to read and access them.  More information about the Banned Books Week here. I'm sure there is a lot to say abo...
