The family could be split in two! Amanda had been frightened rather than flattered by Cesare Druetso's proposal of marriage when she was eighteen. She had refused to be a slave to his masterful ways. Now, five years later, she was back in his home in tuscany,engaged to his younger,gentler brother,Piero.But Cesare,it turned out, had no intention of accepting the situation. He had his whole family, indeed the whole town,backing him-so what could Amanda do about it? My take:The heroine, Amanda ran away because the hero was to alpha. She returns five years later as the fiancée of the hero's brother. Can you say drama. Things you may or may not like about this novel: 1. NO romance*wink* 2. The hero and heroine are cousins, distant cousins but still cousins 3. The heroine has a backbone. 4. Hero bosses his brother around. I give these book 3.5 stars out of a possible 5.
