Contemporary Romance

 

On the way to visit her pregnant sister in Argentina, Zoe Collingsworth is kidnapped, by Lazaro Herrera, her brother-in-law's right hand man and President of Galvan Enterprises-- and with her brother-in-law’s knowledge. 

Dante Galvan doesn't want his wife upset during her difficult pregnancy, and Zoe's supposed engagement to an older family friend might do just that.  So Dante asks Lazaro to take Zoe to Lazaro's remote home on the pampas. 

What Dante Galvan doesn't know is that Lazaro Herrera, his right hand man, is his half-brother; and hell-bent on getting revenge on the Galvan family.  He seizes the opportunity to give Dante Galvan a one-two punch.  He has Zoe and he's begun the hostile takeover of Galvan Enterprises.  Zoe's desperate to escape and get to her sister, but she can't deny the feelings, and the desire, that Lazaro stirs in her.  Lazaro's whole life has been dedicated to getting back at the Galvans, who shamed his mother and ignored his existence.  Yet Zoe Collingsworth offers him the two things he's never had in his life: love and acceptance.  Will his desire for revenge keep him from having a future with Zoe? 

I thought Ms. Porter had surpassed herself with last month's Presents, IN DANTE'S DEBT, but I was wrong!  LAZARO'S REVENGE is everything you want in a Presents: a wounded alpha hero, exotic settings, intense sensuality, explicit yet deeply emotional love scenes, and a heroine who gives as she gets.  Book Two in the Galvan series, LAZARO'S REVENGE is a must-read for both Presents fans and any romance fans.  Jane Porter is a Presents author to watch!
