by Ally Blake
A Beautiful Portrait of Romance!
BILLIONAIRE ON HER
DOORSTEP is a tender yet emotionally stirring romance that is
the perfect choice for the busy reader. Ally Blake provides a quick
fast-paced read but one that inspires the heart.
A bad marriage and finances drove artist to the beach of Sorrento and a
broken down house. Billionaire Tom Campbell escaped the fast-paced
city, but one look at Maggie and escape is the last thing he wants! Tom
is a man of honor and one not scared of an honest day's work. Maggie is
an artist with a vision for portraits --- and an eye for what Tom has
inside. When the two come together, love can't be far behind.
Ally Blake herself has a gift for portraiture! This romance hero is
quite special indeed. He might be a billionaire, but when it comes to
restoring homes, he doesn't need others working for him. His heart and
his hands appreciate wood and and all the details that go into a home.
Readers will like the heroine as well. The Blue Eyes scene was
priceless --- a wonderful moment of self-realization through the hero
and herself and extremely well-written. Ally Blake prepared this scene
well beforehand by describing her paintings. The three friends here
were a great extra touch that revealed a lot about the hero and
heroine's character. Once I wished the words the heroine said to snap
the hero out of his past were seen maybe as internal realizations
within him but, the hero-heroine match here is quite exceptional and
one of the most beautiful aspects of this romance. I enjoyed seeing
this heroine find love! This book was a perfect choice for readers who,
despite a hectic schedule, want to get lost in a romance and feel
rejuvenated and emotionally moved.
