Surrender to the Past

This book is great! I read it all in one sitting. Could not put it down. Well written and great story.

An excellent story. A strong heroine. She made a decision and stuck to it as long as possible. I applaud her efforts to take charge of her life and protect herself. Many heroines are portrayed as weak-willed and easily persuaded - often victims of the hero. We usually have to find ways to redeem an often abusive (at least verbally) hero. Not true in this story. All of the players in this novel were victims of circumstance so the HEA was well deserved. My only concern about this ebook was the amount of spelling errors. To read a book by an accomplished writer with so many errors is truly untenable. Harlequin should be thoroughly embarrassed. I'm tempted to request a refund. I would have rated this book 5 stars (and I don't hand out 5 stars lightly) if not for the numerous typos.

Pretty standard formula good fora quick read!

There were quite a few times that the description were too long but overall the story, characters, sex and romance were perfect. Very enjoyable reading.

CaroleMortimer is one of my favorite authors!! She knows how to write, we will always buy her stories!! Love is the air!! Oh yeah and drama too!!

I hadn't read one of her books in a while and enjoyed it. Sweet story and nice ending.

Really enjoyed reading this book!

I'm always on the look-out for any new work by Carole Mortimer. She is one among my favorites, alongside Anne Mather, Sara Craven & Robyn Donald. This too did not disappoint!

good.not boring. interesting tbroughout

As With all Carole Mortimer books well written and easy reading. Will continue to buy this auther.As i have done for a number of years

Mia walked out on her father and his new wife in disgust five years ago,when they married a few short months after the suicide of her own mother. Now five years later she runs and owns her own coffee shop, she was able to do this with the money left to her by her grandmother. Then out of the blue Ethan her stepmothers son is standing in front of her, wanting to talk. Mia is less than pleased to see Ethan again, five years ago they had been in a relationship but all that ended when she walked out. Ethan wants Mia to see her father as he has suffered a heart attack. But Mia is reluctant. She still believes that Ethan and his mother were only interested in her fathers company, she believed thats why Ethan had romanced her, so as to get his foot in the door at Burton Industries, and to Mia the proof of that was Grace was now married to her father and Ethan was the CEO of Burton industries her father's company. This was a emotional read but not a totally satisfying one. The heroine might have believed to have good reason to be angry when things first happened but she certainly retained all of her anger over the five years, but her father and his new wife plus Ethan were more to blame in my opinion as they had not told Mia the truth about what happened allowing her to believe a lie all these years, and I did not feel that the heroes anger at Mia was totally justified either. All in all this was a story of conflicting emotions. It was well written as you would expect from this author. It's just that I prefer something a little more romantic with a bit less angst.
