BLURB:
A Heart in Conflict (Challenge the Heart Book 2) Opposites
attract, it is a well-known fact. At times this leads to insurmountable
conflict, when at other times, sit back and watch the fireworks.
Steve Tanakis considers himself cool and calmly confident. Head
of a fashion business, he needs to be in control of his life and his business
decisions. He decides it is time to find a suitable mother for his son. Through
with the pain that comes along with passion, he now considers what he wants is
an unemotional wife, one who will fit well into his way of life.
Georgie McNamara, assistant designer in his fashion house, is flamboyant, vivacious, and gregarious, the antitheses to his idea of the perfect choice. The tiny whirlwind turns Steve's organized lifestyle upside down, somehow worming her way into his, and his son’s life, foiling all his plans to find that uncomplicated wife. Along the way Steve comes to realize there is a lot more to this bundle of feminine trouble than he first thought. Is she more trouble than he can handle?

My Review:
It 's a sweet romance, short, easy but very pleasant, ideal beach reading.
Steve needs a wife, especially a mother for his child Jimmy but wants an uncomplicated marriage, so no love. He already had enough disappointments but it's hard for him to resist the charm and sweetness of his new dependent Georgie. But Jimmy like her very much and she is very good with him. And if she was the right one?
Steve is a successful man, charming, loves his son and tries to dedicate to him all his free time. Georgie is a shy girl, naive but very strong, she had to grow up fast: when her parents died she had to take care of her little sister of 11 years old with little money and a mortgage on the house. Jimmy is an adorable little boy, cute, smart. Together they form a beautiful family.
The author keeps you enthralled and engrossed throughout the book, a lovable, fast-paced story
If you enjoy reading sweet romance, then definitely pick this up!

EXCERPT:
“I need to get married.” Steve Tanakis gazed into his half
empty glass.
“And why the hell would you want to do that?” His accountant
stared at him.
“I didn’t say I want to, I said I need to. I’ve decided it’s
about time I got a wife.”
“Aha.” David grinned. “Take mine. Or—a better idea—take one
of my three exes. They’re screwing the last dollar out of me.”
Steve made a soft sound of disgust. “Don’t tell me you’re
thinking of ditching Marylyn.”
“The woman drives me nuts. The piranha is hell-bent on
making me a pauper, what with her passion for diamonds and cars! And those
other bitches...” He cursed softly.
“The trouble with you is that you’re too much of a romantic.
You expect too much of your women. You marry without putting any real thought
into it, then spend your days regretting your haste. There might be a good
business mind ticking over inside that head of yours—” Steve tapped his temple.
“—But where women are concerned you’re a fool. Now, what I propose is to find
myself a perfect example of womanhood.”
David laughed. “Oh, so as you obviously haven’t found this
paragon yet, I take it Marika isn’t in line as the next Mrs. Tanakis?”
Steve looked across to Marika, who was talking to his head
designer, her every gesture manufactured to draw the attention of all the males
present. Most women would do just about anything to have a figure like hers.
The epitome of sophisticated elegance; diamonds glittered at her throat and
fingers.
