eBook Millionaire's Misbehaving Mistress (Mills Boon Hardback Romance) ePub

Author Kimberly Lang delights and charms her readers with the sensual Millionaire's Misbehaving Mistress. It's a fun and heart-warming romance involving a billionaire, his teenage half sister who needs help with etiquette and manners. The Harrison family and the CEO Will Harrison from HarCorp International are the crème of Dallas society. Will's company is sponsoring a gala event in a few weeks and his sister Evie will need to be presented to society. Evie is sort of a "free spirit" and recently lost her mom and needs to learn the proper etiquette.

Gwen Sawyer runs Everyday Etiquette and also writes an advice column for a teen website. She's no stranger to knowing proper etiquette. She and her sister were schooled by their mother as Gwen's father was in Foreign Service. Gwen's training has been in protocol. It has always been her desire to work for a large corporation providing social training. She lost a chance five years ago when there was a scandal in Washington DC involving Gwen and her boss. She came to Dallas and set up a very successful business training debs for their society debuts. She also authors a blog on a teen website, sort of an advice column.

Will Harrison was the sort of alpha every girl dreams of, the perfect physical specimen, very handsome, wealthy, and charming and oozes sexual charm. It's also obvious he adores his kid half sister. However, when he actually hires and meets Gwen for the first time, she piques his interest and he asks her to move into their home so that she can school Evie on a daily basis, sharing meals, tutoring her in studies and hopefully she'll be ready to debut in Texas society. As much as I adored Will, it was Gwen who literally spoke to me.

Gwen realizes she has a second chance when Will Harrison hires her to help with his sister. If she does well, then his corporation might give her a chance and hire her for what she's been train for and she can give up training society debs for good. However, when she actually meets the man himself, she's very attracted to him, so much so that she realizes if she could be in trouble. As she tells her sister, "she simply trains Princesses - she would get Prince Charming."

Reading about the three of them.....Will, Evie and Gwen well it was just plain amazing to see how they seemed to learn and grow together, so much so, they actually became the perfect family. Will was not so dedication to his job, in fact he shocked those close to him as he actually left the office on time. Evie and Gwen's process of bonding and becoming friends was very sweet to read. However, it was Gwen who realized Will was the most amazing man she had ever met and she was afraid she would loose her heart if she wasn't careful. She not only lost her heart, it became broken in the most serious way by Will misunderstanding an overheard conversation. What I admired about Gwen's character was how strong she was and how she bounced back.

There are always lessons to be learned and Will learns his the hard way when he realizes he was at fault and also realizes there are more important things in life than business....love and family!

Behind the book:

In "Dear Reader" Kimberly says "blame it on my very deep Southern roots, but I'm completely fascinated with etiquette. My obsession, however extends beyond flatware and thank-you notes to very `out there' information I'll never have an actual need to use - like dinner seating protocol when both an ex-President and a member of the royal family are present. One day, when I was nose-first into an etiquette text, I found the inspiration for this book in a quote by the great Miss Manners, Judith Martin: "'We are all born charming, fresh and spontaneous, and must be civilised before we are fit to participate in society.'

The above quote sparked Kimberly's imagination and the dinner scene you'll read in Chapter Two of The Millionaire's Misbehaving Mistress.

The storyline has too much going on. One minute their fighting and yelling then they're playing footsie under the table. I wouldn't recommend it

Omg....wonderful all the way through. I had the sample and then bought the full version right after because I could wait another week.=^w^=

She's got a Lynne Graham-type male character and sex scenes with a Suzanne Brockmann-type dialogue thing going on. She is a keeper. I don't even read the back cover. If it's new and she wrote it then I'm buying it. Keep'em coming.

Take a hunky millionaire and a spunky heroine, add a believable conflict, throw in a lovable teenager, and tie it all together with Kimberly Lang's wit ... what's not to love? Nothing! I loved this book!
Of all the wonderful catagory romance authors, Kimberly Lang is my favorite.

This etiquette-consultant-meets-rude-millionaire story was a really fun read (yes, complete with the classic struggling-with-escargot scene)! I would've liked to see more of the etiquette instructions, but understand that comics have limited pages and Shion Hanyu did her best.
