Gemstone Billionaires Series

Three women. Three lives. And the lies that bind them. Why is everyone afraid of the truth? When a lonely young American woman inherits a painting she discovers her whole life was a lie. Desperate for the truth, she goes in search of her true identity. The painting is her only clue. But everyone is determined to keep its secret past repressed, including Vitaliano Rossi, the Italian gold tycoon, unnaturally suspicious of her motives, who wants the painting vanquished.  When she holds an exhibition hoping to flush out anyone with knowledge of the painting's history, Vitaliano is fiercely determined to possess the painting—and the woman who has it in her possession.   How can she discover who she really is and convince him that his love means more to her than gold?   Do you dream of travelling to New Zealand? Now you can—all from the safety of your own home. The Italian Billionaire's Scandalous Marriage is set amongst the spectacular scenery of the South Island in New Zealand.   Praise for Book Two in the Gemstone Billionaire's series—The Italian Billionaire's Scandalous Marriage   Advance Readers Reviews: "I loved the premise that she needs the hero to unlock the secrets to explain her past—it's great conflict."

What if the person who is so, so, so wrong for you is really so, so, so right, but you're too afraid to give love a chance?  Last Christmas, art therapist Issy Riley was jilted by her fiancé. This Christmas she's running away. A week with a client on his private Fijian island promises to save her from cheating men and the London festive season. But when the client turns out to be a gorgeous and magnetic Italian billionaire, he threatens her resolve to never again trust her heart to the wrong man. Milan fashion house leader and avowed bachelor Massimiliano Balforni has no intention of taking a vacation, despite his sister's insistence that he subject himself to an art therapy retreat following a minor heart attack. With an important collection due, he intends to fire his therapist and work, instead. But the determined and striking Issy gives his heart palpitations of a far more dangerous kind. The one thing Max and Issy agree on: they are as wrong for each other as wrong gets. He's a workaholic playboy who believes emotion is a weakness. She's a romantic who yearns for a happily ever after.  As the tropical heat soars, they discover that in this battle between work and play, resistance only fuels attraction—and sometimes two wrongs make a very passionate right. Set in two beautiful paradises—Milano, Italy and the tropical Pacific islands of Fiji. Praise for Book One in the Gemstone Billionaire's series—The Italian Billionaire's Christmas Bride Advance Readers Reviews: "Mollie Mathews has created an instantly gripping dynamic between Issy and Massimilliano that beautifully blends their animosity and their undeniable attraction, making the tension soar." ~ Laura, Harlequin Mills and Boon "I really enjoy Mollie's style of writing – it's in the 21st century and relates to every woman who has been trashed by a bloke.  The abandonment issues experienced by Max are also so relevant to our current world, so many have been emotionally stunted or abandoned.  This is a story that resonates with me and I could not put it down.  Mollie is just such a good writer with enormous appeal in her story – an excellent read on a rainy day." ~ Rae Waterhouse "I couldn't get away for a holiday this year but was lucky enough to stumble across Mollie Mathews book Married by Christmas. With inviting backdrops of Italy and Fiji to set the scene and passionate but angst-ridden leading characters, it makes the perfect holiday reading." ~ Laura Virgo If this is the first time you have read a Gemstone Billionaire story, you can easily read each book as a standalone.
