Powerful Attraction

Bestselling author, Leanne Banks, has written a wonderful story about Damien Medici, a handsome billionaire bent on revenge, and Emma Weatherfield, his lovely new secretary, who gets in the way of his plans. Emma needs to get close to Damien to discover what he's plotting. Unfortunately, Emma doesn't anticipate his powerful attraction, the way Damien sweeps her off her feet or this delicious heart-stopping romance that may very well leave both of them breathless.

Leanne Banks writes as no one else can.

Emma Weatherfield has worked for Megalos-De Luca Enterprises "MD" in Las Vegas for over six years now. She has been the executive assistant for two of the top managers, Alex Megalos and Max De Luca. Now the chairman of the board has hired an outside firm to conduct a reorganization of the company and Emma has been reassigned to be the executive assistant to Mr. Medici, the man who would decide the fate of the employees. Damien Medici has waited his entire life for a chance to bring down the De Luca name. The grandfather of Max De Luca had cheated the Medici family, causing the entire family to scatter. Some sank into depression so deeply they committed suicide and the children were orphaned. Damien had been one of the children put into foster homes. His hunger for revenge gave him the necessary discipline to study hard, work hard, and become a self-made billionaire. Only now is Damien finding members of his lost family, such as his two brothers. Now the time is at hand for Damien to ruin the De Luca family and Emma is the key. Emma knows vital information that would give Damien the ammunition he searches for. He knows that Emma is reporting to her previous managers every move he makes. So the first thing to do is convince her to change her loyalty over to him, even if it means seducing her. Emma does not like spying on Damien for her former managers. On one hand, she owes Alex and Max for her college education and her future at MD. On the other hand, Damien is now her boss (even if only temporarily) and he believes he is doing what is best for the company. She should be keeping his secrets and doing all she can to assist him. Emma had prejudged Damien and he is now scrambling her preconceptions of him. Then there is the problem of the attraction growing between them. How long will she be able to keep her emotional distance from him? And does she really want to? ***** A delightful romance set within the neon lights of Las Vegas. Emma not only has the worries about who she should be loyal to, but also has a mother with an addiction to gambling. I found myself genuinely caring and admiring Emma. She is a terrific example of a normal, loyal, hard worker of today's businesses. (Well, the ones with scruples anyway.) Damien is almost too good to be true. He has done what I believe every orphan wants to achieve, to grow up smart and get rich. I only met one brother in this story, Rafe, and found him to be just as intriguing as Damien. I sincerely hope Rafe gets his own story told. Leanne Banks writes like no other can! ***** Reviewed by Detra Fitch of Huntress Reviews.
