The third installment of a sexy, whirlwind romance about a modern-day heroine writing historical novels based on her romantic misadventures with the Bad Boy Billionaire. Jane Sparks had it all ... almost. Everyone knew that Jane Sparks had been dumped by her high school sweetheart and fired from her job, which is why she was really looking forward to attending her high school reunion as a successful romance novelist--with her hot billionaire boyfriend as a date. But a violent encounter with her ex-boyfriend changed everything. Duke Austen was the luckiest guy in town ... almost. Duke Austen is a blue-eyed charmer with a bad-boy reputation and ambitious plans for his future--after two failed startups, this tech entrepreneur is about to celebrate the 20-billion-dollar IPO of his company--but it no longer matters when the woman he loves has been hurt. Stranded in his apartment during a hurricane, without power, they must rebuild their trust ... and fall in love all over again. Just when they have it all figured out, Jane and Duke are forced to decide what matters more: facing her past or celebrating his successful future.… (mais)

This was the best installment yet. It was also not the easiest to read, but Rodale handled the situation so well. (

I liked the first two parts of the story better than this. I still wanted to know what happens and while I think the whole premise was interesting, I had issues with the book. Duke was just a bit too perfect and everything was wrapped up a bit too neatly. I think part of the problem was the length of the book, but an assault is a huge issue and I felt that while the book does take it seriously, it was shown a bit too black and white and dealt with a bit too fast. So, points for effort, but the execution was a bit too far off from perfect. (

Cheesy.
Over-the-top.
Prince William makes a cameo.

There is really nothing else to say. Don't read if you haven't read the other two and read if you just can't possibly imagine how Duke and Jane's relationship is going to be resolved.
(I bet you can imagine it)

*I should say sexual assault is mentioned/dealt with here. The handling of it made me cringe a little bit. The author tries to give it the gravity it deserves and delves into how women blame and question themselves instead of placing the blame where it deserves but the overall chik-lit lightness just doesn't support it.
Anyway, I am looking forward to the historical match to this one next in the series. It looks like sexual assault will be dealt with there too. (
