Cinderella’s Night in Venice by Clare Connelly is as stunning as the cover.

Desperately trying to calm down their biggest client, Bea is stunned when Ares invites her to an event. Ares is ready to explode and Bea is the closest in his path of fury. Ares is floored the heroine of book 1 of this awesome miniseries isn’t in the office to meet him for a pre-arranged business meeting. Knowing it’s not really Bea’s fault and despite his bear with a sore head attitude, Ares is also shocked that he finds himself inviting Bea to an event that he requires a partner for that evening – in Venice!

I absolutely enjoyed Clare Connelly’s instalment to the Signed Sealed Seduced Mini Series. The entire book I was cheering both Bea and Ares on. I enjoyed the beautiful descriptive towns their journey took them to and I adored the slow burn build up. I thought Bea was a lovely character with a background story that was very emotive. I enjoyed the gruff character of Ares, I thought he was a brilliant Presents Hero. The emotions were stirred and the escapism was brilliant. The family emergency which caused Bea and Ares to jet off again was a great set up to the month Bea agrees to spend with Ares.

I really, really enjoy the characters and worlds that Clare Connelly creates. I thought this one was particularly emotional with Bea’s background and Ares family loyalty. I loved the lead up to Book 3 and am very intrigued about Bea and Amy’s friend and how her happy ever after is played out. The epilogue was lovely. A perfect long weekend read.

Did I mention how stunning the cover is?
