There are books that surprise you.
Books that take you into a whole different world.
The kind of books you can not put down.
If a book keeps you awake during the night even if you should get up early the next morning….
When you find yourself waking up still holding the book in your hand after reading almost the whole night….
You already told all of your friends about the book, but you still can stop talking about it
and try to convince your friends to buy it….
When you finished a book and are still thinking about it weeks later….
You start crying and/or laughing just because you heard a song that reminds you of the book….
When you suddenly start to compare other books with this one-with the help of other titles, characters or books…
If any or all of thes situations describe a certain book for you – this
book should be in this list because it rocked your world!
book should be in this list because it rocked your world!
“This Man” by Jodi Ellen Malpas
BLURB
Young interior designer
Ava O’Shea has an appointment for a first consultation at The Manor with
the owner, Mr Jesse Ward. She is expecting nothing more than an
overweight, cravat wearing, well-to-do countryman, and on arrival,
nothing would suggest otherwise. How wrong could she be? This Man is
devastatingly handsome, charming and confident. He is also a conceited,
hedonistic playboy, who knows no boundaries. Ava desperately does not
want to be attracted to him, but she can’t control the overwhelming
effect he has on her. Every instinct is telling her to run, so she does,
but Jesse Ward is not so willing to let her go. He wants her and is
determined to have her. She knows she is heading for heartbreak, but how
can she run when he won’t let her?

“He shakes his head. ‘You’re different. I told you, Ava, I’ll trample anyone who tries to get in my way. Even you.”
“He pecks my lips. I knew you were the one the second I laid eyes on you.
The one to bring me back to life.
‘How did you know?’ He’s talking. I need to extract as much from him as possible.He looks me straight in the eyes. They are bursting with meaning. ‘Because my heart starting beating again.’ He whispers.”
“It’s pure bliss, baby. Total gratification. Absolute, complete earth shifting, universe shaking love.”
