The Italian's Inexperienced Mistress

By Lynne Graham

Burning with passion!

When Angelo set out to get his revenge for the death of his mother, he had legal and financial humiliation in mind. But then Gwenna Hamilton added another delicious dimension.

As innocent and pretty as a country mouse, she had no chance when the Italian tycoon swooped like an urban predator and offered her the devil's bargain: pay for her father's freedom with her body. In her naivety, Gwenna thought that Angelo would tire of her inexperience very quickly. But he had more in mind than just one night...

Reviews for The Italian's Inexperienced Mistress

[sarah auer · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Lynne Graham spins a web of a tale that has a number of twists and turns as this couple take their journey of discovery together.
They both learn and grow and of course it’s a hea but what else would you expect.
I quite enjoyed seeing how our incorrigible and arrogant Hero became just that a hero. The heroine was lovely and dignified and didn’t get too bogged in acrimony or self flagellation as some are prone to do.
As always Lynne you’ve kept me turning Those pages

Angelo Riccardi is the grandson of notorious crime family head Carmelo Zanetti. When Zanetti is dying, he summons Angelo to his bedside to tell him the awful secret of his family, including the fact that his late mother had been swindled by English fraudster Donald Hamilton and then dumped. Although he has always been on the right side of the law, his Italian heritage surfaces as he vows revenge on Hamilton. But then, he meets Gwenna, Hamilton’s daughter and sparks of all kind begin to fly, more so when he includes her in his web of vendetta.I have to begin by confessing that I’m not normally a fan of romance novels. Too many ripped bodices and heaving bosoms, exquisitely beautiful maidens and unbelievably handsome swains for my taste. But, Lynne Graham’s The Italian’s Inexperienced Mistress is not your usual cloyingly described sex scenes interspersed with a few paragraphs of purple prose narrative. I mean, it has a lot of the obligatory coupling, grappling, and heavy breathing, enough in fact to satisfy fans of the genre. But, it is also a novel of high intrigue, suspense, and not a small amount of humor. Part Cinderella, part Great Gatsby, Angelo’s adventures, Gwenna’s inner turmoil, and the path of their relationship will keep you turning the pages.
