Description:
Beckett Samuelson has had enough stepmothers to spot a gold digger when he sees one. So when his ailing father announces his engagement to the private nurse he’s only known for two months—who’s also forty years his junior—Beckett has to step in. But as he gets to know the woman, he realizes she’s the perfect next Mrs. Samuelson.

If only he was the intended groom.

Corazon Dela Cruz sends every spare penny she earns to her family in the Philippines. Then her latest nursing client offers her $25,000 to fake an engagement to convince his overprotective son to return to work abroad—he doesn’t need Beckett’s help. But as Corazon and Beckett spend more time together—from picnics on the beach to galas in fancy dresses—she starts to develop very real feelings.

Too bad she’s engaged to the wrong Samuelson.

 

 

Review:

Beckett Samuelson has returned home to check on his father who suffered a stroke. He’s determined to make sure the nurse is capable. Corazon “Cora” Dela Cruz is the nurse taking care of his father. She has a unique way of dealing with her patients. When these two set eyes on each other it’s instant attraction. They fight their attraction because she’s an employee and he’s returning to the all-consuming architecture career he has in Dubai. An interfering father trying to be a matchmaker just may pull Cora and Beckett apart. They’ll fight their attraction and learn to trust each other. Can these two people meant for each other come together Over Her Wed Body?

Alexia Adams’s newest book Over Her Wed Body takes the reader from high society of Vancouver, Canada the poverty rice patty area of the Philippines and the royal world of Dubai, Saudi Arabia. The story is a steamy look at the lives of architect and the nurse taking care of his father. A man who’s trust in woman was devastated at a young age with the death of his mother and the two stepmothers that came after. A nurse taking care of the father who the past ten years been helping take care of her family back in the Philippines. Their mistrust just may turn to love as they realize the strong attraction between them. When his father tries to play matchmaker, it’ll confuse the whole situation and put distant between. An incentive maybe the answer to a prayer and the happiness of father just may keep these two people who are meant to be together.

Alexia Adams writes a story of love and attraction and putting your trust into someone who you could fall in love with. She’ll have you cheering for these two characters to find their happily ever after. I’m looking forward to hopefully reading Ms. Adams next story and hopefully a sequel to Over Her Wed Body and the story of the male best friend would be a welcome addition. You’ll love traveling across the world to see if these two characters who weren’t looking for love just may find their way to each other.

Review;

This is my first Alexia Adams book I’ve read and I believe it won’t be the last. I really enjoyed Alexia’s storytelling in Masquerading with the Billionaire.  It was a fast fun read that kept me on the edge of my seat with an air of mystery and intrigue that surrounds our heroine Kat throughout the book keeping us in suspense regarding her true identity.  To add to this air of mystery and intrigue we have one very sexy and intense hero in Remington Steele Wolf.  Yes that’s his full name, and I LOL at it the first time we first learn of it, love it!!  Together Kat and Wolfe form a formidable pair both in the bedroom and the office.  Their scenes together are wrought full of flirty banter and sexual tension that gets more intense with each passing scene.  You know it’s only a matter of time before these two fall into each other’s arms and when they finally do, they burn up the pages.  Their romance is a flirty, fun, and steamy one to say the least.  However, all the while the truth of who Kat really is keeps looming over them making it harder and harder for Kat to keep her emotions and feelings for Wolfe at bay. 

Alexia not only writes a steamy romance in this one, she’s also written a story chalked full of emotion that pours off the pages and makes us want to see Kat change her fate, find her sister, and finally get all that she deserves.  Kat’s backstory about where she came from and what she went through to get to where she is now tugs at the heartstrings and wants to see her and Wolfe win at love.  Not only is Kat struggling with her growing feelings, but so too is Wolfe thanks to his passion, dreams and driving ambition to become ‘The’ world’s best jewelry designer.  Thanks to his ambition and dream he’s always kept personal relationships to a minimum and just sexual.  He never allows himself to bring feelings into a relationship thanks to one relationship that left a bitter taste in his mouth. However, the more time he spends with Kat he realizes there’s more to relationships then just sex, and starts to think that maybe, just maybe he can have both, love and his dream.  He’s also discovered that thanks to Kat his passion for creating and designing his jewelry takes on a whole new meaning, as she seems to have become his muse.  All together now,  awww. Isn’t Wolfe a sweetie? Tough exterior, but inside he’s a teddy bear with a heart of gold. 

I really enjoyed Masquerading with the Billionaire. The story is well thought out with a good amount of suspense, intrigue, passion, emotion and a side of flirty playfulness to balance it all out.  It makes for a page-turner of a story where you can’t put the book down for one minute because you need to know what’s going to happen next.  I just love these kinds of stories.  They keep me interested from beginning to end and then wanting more when I’ve read the last line.  Looking forward to reading more by Alexia Adams.

Until next time, happy reading everyone!
