Romeo & Roo Books: Roo's Reviews

Synopsis

HAMISH - I was born to an alcoholic mother and alcoholic, drug dealing father. Not a good start to life for a young boy. I was born to sin.

I've lied, cheated, assaulted, been an adulterer and stolen. It's how one survives the 'hood'. I have a reputation for being the 'bad boy', the fuck 'em and leave 'em type. I have never spent the night with a woman and I have never brought a woman home. We 'play' at her place and as soon as I'm done, I leave.

After fleeing my home at the age of thirteen and living on the streets - an option I found better than being with my parents, my life is turned around by an elderly lady.

I educate myself, become an award winning chef and return to the 'hood where I rent an apartment. I love and care about no-one and nothing except my Harley Motorcycle. It's here I met Jonesy and he takes my life in a whole new direction. Along with Wade, a fellow chef and the only person I can trust, the pair teach me how to love. Not only myself, but others.

BLOSSOM - I'm a wealthy Restaurateur thanks to an inheritance I received when my father passed.

I live in a penthouse apartment in the 'rich' part of the city.

Being pampered and spoiled all my life has turned me into a woman who sees something she wants and, like a dog with a bone, I won't let go until it's mine. I'm a winner. I ALWAYS win.

I don't have relationships with men. One night stands suit me just fine. I can't trust it's me they want and not my money.

I meet Hamish by chance when I'm on the hunt for a new Head Chef. He treats me like I'm not worth a second thought. I've never been treated this way and I decide at that moment, I will make Hamish mine.

Hamish has no interest in the pampered Blossom but for some reason she gets under his skin.

Then, something happens that makes him realize, he has fallen in love. Will it be too late? Will tragedy strike before he can hold her in his arms and confess his true feelings?

Roo's Review

Damaged...bad boy... biker... chef. What's not to love about Hamish? He's the guy that every girl wants but can't sink their claws into. And while he ca be a complete idiot, he still has a good heart, when he decides to show it.

When Blossom comes along, he cannot deny his attraction to her, even though she is the furthest thing from his type. And he is pretty sure that he is anything but Blossom's type. Of course, that is not the only feeling that is mutual.

The story line will keep you guessing with unexpected twists and turns. Hamish reminds me a bit of Travis Maddox from Jamie McGuire's Beautiful Disaster, which makes me love him even more.

So if you are a Maddox fan looking for a good book to read this Valentine's Day, then Born to Sin is an excellent choice!

About the Author

I grew up in Sydney and moved to Queensland as an adult.

I am married with two sons and a daughter.

I love to read and am like a sponge. I will read pretty much anything.

Travel, walks and the beach are my three most favorite things to do.

My hope is for readers to enjoy what I have written as much as I enjoy writing it.

Born to Sin will be my first book.
