Italian Billionaire’s Stubborn Lover

The Romano Brothers series, Book 1

De: Leslie North

Narrado por: Connor Brown

Luxury real estate agent Adeline Peluso came to Italy in search of adventure. Inheriting an apartment with a view of the coast in Sicily sounded like something out of a movie, but after two years spent watching a resort she’d always loved fall to pieces she’s ready to throw in the proverbial towel ... that is until one of the owners finally walks into her office. Tall, dark, and devastatingly handsome, the man would drive her crazy with his arguments if he didn’t set her aflame with his kisses.

Billionaire Nicolo Romano is a global citizen. He’s the kind of guy who skis in the Alps, snorkels in the Caribbean, and enjoys the lights of the Vegas strip on a whim. He has no desire to be tied down any time soon. So when he and his brothers inherit the family resort, Nicolo has one goal: Sell it and sell it fast. But coming back to the place he loved as a child to find a woman who feels just as passionately about the crumbling hotel throws him. Instead of using his business savvy to sell fast, Nicolo is wooing this woman with his island, slowly falling back in love with the place himself.

When whip smart arguments turn into stolen kisses and stolen kisses turn into steamy nights, Adeline and Nicolo will realize that they’re fighting for more than the fate of a historic hotel. They’re fighting for the chance of life’s greatest adventure: true love.

Interesting Romance

I received this audiobook free for an honest review. It seemed like the author didn't spend much time on this story. I felt it was a bit sporadic. It was good, but I have listened to other by Leslie North that I liked better. The story was interesting with a different backdrop. The author was very creative in the basic story. Not too fond of the narrator. There are others that I believe would do a better job. He is not so bad that I can't listen to him though.

Great Read

The Italian Billionaire's Stubborn Lover by Leslie North was a great read. Adeline has gone to Italy in order to chase adventure. She is working with Nicolo to sell the family resort. I absolutely loved reading Adeline and Nicolo's story. I can't wait to read more by Leslie North.

Stubborn billionaire

One stubborn billionaire and a headstrong woman make for a story that will have you laughing one minute and shaking your head at their choices the next. I wanted, several times, to shake some sense into them. But that proves I was so wrapped up in the story that the characters were real to me. You can't ask for more than that from a really good story.

As a narrator, Connor Brown brings the characters to life to the fullest extent, putting you right in the middle and leaving you satisfied at the end.

I received this audible free of cost and am thrilled to give my honest unbiased review.

Great but confusing

When Adaline and Nico meet they are both hard working active people. Yet when Nicolo continues working as does Adaline she gets angry. Then she decides to not have the father of her unborn child in her life. I don't understand women like that who keep the father away from his child. She knew the type of work he did before they started. This is confusing to me. She continues to work like she wants to but he can't. Then when he accepts her turns she gets upset. The narrator was good for the story although just a little disjointed in places. I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review.

A tribute to romance ...

Ms. North drops readers in the middle of a dream with The Italian Billionaire's Stubborn Lover. Beautiful views brought to life by descriptive imagery. An attraction that has roots in spellbinding history and a majestic building that holds the key to love, life and legacy. As Nicolo and Adeline butt heads, they join hearts in a romance that is larger than life and hard to forget. Out of the remnants of an old building, rises the beginning of a happily ever after for a man afraid to dream and a woman determined to succeed. A tribute to sentiment, driven by an epic tale of love.

Great Contemporary Romance

This is a great start to the Romano Brothers series. This story is set in Sicily where the brothers have inherited a centuries old resort. They plan on selling the resort so someone can destroy it and rebuild a new project, but Adeline wants to save the resort and keep the rich history intact.

Narration was excellent and brought the story to life.

Adeline goes through great lengths to manipulate things to go according to what she wants. Nicolo has no roots anywhere and likes being on the go all the time. He wants to be the best at what he does and a great opportunity opens up for him in India. Adeline applies to a job in Spain... Will circumstances pull them apart? Will the resort get another chance to shine and get back to what it once was?

I love Leslie North books! Her stories are great and all locations captivating. I’m looking forward to getting to know the other brothers in next books.
