WEDNESDAY REVIEW - Hidden Heir with His Housekeeper

 Good morning, everyone!

I'm so excited to share my review of Hidden Heir with His Housekeeper with you today. Yesterday was a beautiful day to spend in the rocker on the front porch and read.

Let's talk about it!



BLURB:
When an heiress falls from grace, her baby’s billionaire father will catch her and claim her in this surprise pregnancy romance by USA TODAY bestselling author Heidi Rice!

From innocent heiress

To pregnant housekeeper!

Self-made billionaire Mason Foxx would never forget the sizzling encounter he had with society princess Bea Medford. But his empire comes first—anything more than a night is an indulgence he can’t afford. Months later, at a hotel in Italy, he gets the ultimate shock. Bea isn’t just the housekeeper there—she’s carrying his child!

Pregnant. Disgraced. Disowned by her family. Alone for the first time, Bea is doing whatever it takes to protect her unborn child. But coming face-to-face with Mason throws her plan into chaos. Because he has his own…demanding Bea return to London with him!

From Harlequin Presents: Escape to exotic locations where passion knows no bounds.

Mason and Beatrice struggle with their pasts stemming from father's willing to pimp them out for their own securities. Yet, from their pasts they both rise to find their own strengths. You don't find out until the end what a lovely take on a classic fairy tale this story is. My only struggle with this book was the title. No spoiler alerts, but as you read, I think you'll see what I mean when I say Harlequin did a disservice in titling this one. Proving once again the titles and covers don't always match the story.

While I'm not a fan of the heat level, I had to read to the end to find out how Beatrice finds her strength and is able to show Mason, the world isn't the dark place he believes. 

I'm giving Hidden Heir with His Housekeeper :

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT - Heidi Rice

 Good morning, everyone!

Feels like spring is on it's way into the Ozarks. We hit 80*F yesterday! Not ready for heat and humidity but is nice to sit out on the deck with a good book. 


I'm shining the spotlight on  USA Today Bestselling author, Heidi Rice.


Here's a bit about Heidi:

Author Heidi Rice’s first love was watching movies so, not surprisingly, her first proper job was as a film journalist. But after spending years sneaking off to read romantic fiction when she was being paid to watch crappy B-movies, she decided to try writing a novel of her own. After several false starts, her first book, Bedded by a Bad Boy, was published by Harlequin Mills & Boon in 2007 (try telling that title to your mother with a straight face!). Eleven years and 40+ published novels, novellas and short stories later, she has had her work translated into over twenty languages, become a USA Today bestseller and sold over three million copies of her books worldwide.

In 2016, Heidi released her first full-length women’s fiction novel with Harlequin Mira UK, So Now You’re Back. Her second women’s fiction novel, Summer at Willow Tree Farm, came out in Harper Collins’ HQ Stories imprint in 2017. Her latest longer novel, Just Like in the Movies, is due out on 12th March 2021 from Harper Collins’ Digital First imprint One More Chapter and features a hopeful romantic, a hopeless cynic and a crumbling cinema in Notting Hill where dreams just might come true.

As you can probably tell, she loves her job, because it involves sitting down at her computer each day and getting swept up in a world of high emotions, sensual excitement, funny flawed women, sexy tortured men and glamorous locations where laundry doesn’t exist. She tutors an online romance writing course with the Professional Writing Academy to share the joy! She lives in London with her husband and two sons, and lots of other gorgeous men who are entirely in her imagination (unlike the laundry, unfortunately).


I had to laugh at the last line. See, even Bestselling authors live ordinary lives. 

Her most recent book, HIDDEN HEIR WITH HIS HOUSEKEEPER released last week (technically a March release) and is part of a three-book co-project I'll talk more about tomorrow.

In the mean time, please visit her links below and I'll see you tomorrow with my review.



All my best!
