I hate to say it, but I think that An Unwanted Wife was a fluke. I loved it so much, and then read A Husband's Regret and was disappointed. I gave this one a try and liked this the least of all. First, I really don't like the heroine, Cleo. She's selfish, immature, self-centered, and does not seem like a nice person. I'm not saying that I wanted to see a doormat, but Cleo needs a lot of growing up to do. [Spoiler alert] It was horrible that they lost their baby, but on the other hand, Cleo was nowhere near ready to be a mother. Being a mother means putting someone else first ALWAYS and Cleo doesn't even really know how to do that some of the time. I also didn't buy into their whole chemistry. And, there was nothing to show why Dante would fall in love with this messy, self-centered girl. I mean, really, taking your clothes off as you walk through the house? Because that's somehow more efficient than just waiting until you get to your room? Did she grow up so spoiled that that's what she did when she lived with her grandparents? It's not even your house, girl. Treat the place with some respect. And did losing her grandparents not teach her anything? Like I said, I just did not like this girl, which made it impossible for me to like the book.

A Ruthless Proposition edition by Natasha Anders Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

I thoroughly enjoyed this book from start to finish! I read it at the recommendation of a friend... her comment to me was, "I read a book last night that I could not put down, and you should read it." The unfortunate thing for me was that I started reading it at night and had to make myself put it down in order to get some sleep for work the next day. I particularly enjoy reading books with settings in other parts of the world, and this one takes place in South Africa and Japan with some male hotness of a Spaniard. Occasionally Dante (one of the main characters) throws in a few Spanish words when he gets stressed that I've now learned. All the characters in the book were well developed and the story flowed brilliantly! The book was definitely different possessing some crudeness, humor, sex scenes, sadness and romance; all the elements for a very good Romance novel. I've never read books from this author but will definitely keep her on my list of favorites, because I enjoyed her writing style.
I had read some of the previous negative reviews, but had decided to purchase this book to see if it was as controversial as it was deemed. Well, those negative reviews were right. If I could give this book a -0, I would.

The lead H (loosely stated) was insulting, rude, used awful profanity toward the h (doormat), and unlikeable. The h (so sad!) was selfish, weak, and allowed the H to treat her any way he chose. Awful story!! After the H would demean and insult the h, they would have sexual relations, GET THIS!, initiated by the H!!!.

Even though this is a fictitious book, I hope Ms. Anders, and any other female, would not accept such terrible behavior from a man. This book epitomizes low- self esteem and degradation. It's bad when a man will know you in the dark, but in the light of day treat you so disrespectfully. A man should respect
and honor a woman, not use and abuse her. Women should expect more.

I really wanted to stop reading this book after the first chapter. But, since I had purchased the book, and couldn't get a refund, I finally finished it. I felt very little sympathy for the characters, except concerning their loss. I did not have a good feeling even for their HEA. Neither character was likable. Ms. Anders first book was much better. This was awful--- " - 0 ".
Ms. Anders used my all-time favorite trope with a spin. I was in tears because her writing it's good and her story-telling was, too.

I loved the fact that Cleo didn't swoon each time Dante come near. She didn't particularly like him yet was cognizant enough to realize their attraction to each other was off the charts. She was confident throughout the whole story and maintained her traits.

Dante's transformation was brilliant. It was so gradual, so well-written I was truly along for the ride, rooting for him.

A and I also felt that Ms. Anders wrote the secondary characters well, too. They were not merely conveniences to showcase the main protagonists.

Where it fell short was with continuity issues. Just one issue that stood out was when she described Cal, who's been waiting to pick up Cleo from the airport. He stood well-above everyone else by the baggage claim and, she being 5'1" should not have been able to rest her head on his shoulder. This was just one example.

I will read more of Ms. Anders' work, though, because everything else worked well.
I have a special preference for love stories where the hero is a total as*ho*e at first, and resists with all his strength (and cruelty) the subtle attraction of the heroine. The problem with this combination is that often the authors create horrible abusive anti-heroes that are impossible to like or heroines that become the hero's prefer doormat. So, the author has to strike a balance in developing an independent female character (that does not revolve around the male character) with a redeemable hero and at the same time create the opportunity for the H/h to interact (giving the chance for the romantic relationship to flourish). Plus, showing us HOW both fall in love (my prefer part!).

And this book gathers those characteristics Dante is a real bastard with Cleo at the beginning. Cleo, on the other hand, is a heroine who grows as the book progresses and reveal the inner strength that ultimately brings Dante to his knees (I love when the hero grovels! ) ).
This is an unusual and wonderful romance. I read two or three romance novels every week and I have to say that this one is going on my top fifty list. The characters are well developed and the story is just slightly different from the old tried and true formula romances. Good job Ms.Anders! You keep writing and I'll keep reading your romances.
