Tessa is a lovely young woman working for one of the top hoteliers in the world, head-quartered in San Francisco. She is quite shy and more than a bit naïve and tries very hard to hide her crush on her sexy boss, Ian. In Splendor: Inevitable #2 by Janet Nissenson, Tessa’s secret dreams come to life when Ian discovers that she is getting a divorce. He breaks his own rules by claiming her as his own. Careful to hide the relationship until Tessa is comfortable enough to quit her position in the office, the two begin a steamy relationship during which Ian does everything in his power to pamper and protect his perfect love. Coming from a life of poverty and loss, Tessa is amazed by the generosity Ian’s wealth allows so she is determined to give him her all – mind, body and soul. Will the difference in their backgrounds and the inappropriate advances of a co-worker be too much of an obstacle or have each of these lovers found their true soul mate?
Janet Nissenson has brilliantly described the effects of poverty, mental illness and loss on a young woman’s life, but she has also provided her with strength of character and a determination to take what life hands her in her stride. Realistic characters and a full plot bring Splendor: Inevitable #2 to vivid life, leaving the reader cheering for every happy turn of events Tessa experiences and cringing through every trial. Mutual devotion and incredible intimacy mark the relationship that develops between Tessa and Ian while the challenges they face are surmounted together. Please note there are erotic scenes in this book.
