Carrying the Spaniard's Child by Jennie Lucas

5.0

Santiago was enchanted.

As was I. What a delightful book this was, so humorous, so sweet. Although he treated Belle callously at first. Further, the treatment meted out by his father, the Duke's family, to Belle inspite of Santiago's presence was horrible.
I was worried with most of the reveals being there in the beginning itself, wondering what was left in the story then. But was it a great bunch of big surprises all throughout! It was horrible, the treatment they received from their respective parents. And then there was the betrayal of his past love. I loved the way, slowly, how she creeped into his heart.
The story was so gripping that while Santiago was in Spain, as a reader, I too was constantly thinking about whether he would take up the dukedom offered to him after his step brother's death. Will he, won't he? There is this suspense maintained throughout that episode.
There was so much of heartbreak before everything became okay.
After reading the Kindle version, I loved it so much that I went ahead and ordered a paperback, coz this one's for keeps! [a:Jennie Lucas|771847|Jennie Lucas|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1269297790p2/771847.jpg]
