REVIEW: The Billionaire’s Secret by Kathleen O’Brien

The Billionaire’s Secret by Kathleen O’Brien: It’s back to the Amalfi Coast with this novella from Ms. O’Brien and with this trip we get a peak into the lives of a Scot and an American along with a case of hidden and somewhat twisted identities. When a young Boston woman comes to the Coast to play the roll of a rich woman on vacation and meets a Scotsman who happens to be designing the landscape of the hotel she is staying in she doesn’t have a clue who he is. When it turns out he is not just well off but rich and other secrets start to come out what will happen? Will there even be any chance when circumstances force them to run home without any notice?

The writing of this novella is incredibly smooth. It’s a steady moving plot with some focused romance and not a lot of heat. Ms. O’Brien does really well with her characters and her descriptions of everything. This story is so vivid in colors and smells it feels like you are really there and can close your eyes and reach out and touch the lemon trees and see the amazingness that is the Amalfi Coast. Take some time and pick up the novella for a feel good quick read.
