Georgia and the Tycoon
288 pages
A sun-drenched, battle-of-wills romance where tropical heat melts away stubborn defenses.
What it feels like
Reading this classic category romance feels like stepping into a sun-drenched time capsule of high-stakes attraction and tropical escapism. Set against the lush, vibrant backdrop of the Great Barrier Reef, the narrative moves at a brisk, engaging pace, driven entirely by the crackling tension between a fiercely independent heroine and an unapologetically alpha tycoon. The prose is emotionally heightened and unabashedly melodramatic, leaning into the delicious friction of a battle of wills. It is an earnest, breezy read that wraps the reader in a world of hidden motives, corporate intrigue, and inevitable surrender. Perfect for fans of vintage Harlequin romances who crave a quick, swoony escape where the tropical heat perfectly mirrors the simmering romantic tension.

About the book
Devious. Dangerous. Devastating.
Link Robards, through and through.
Georgia knew the type and had never been swayed... until now. "The very last thing in the world I need is a high-powered husband," she seemed to recall telling Link on his arrival at her uncle's resort. But even then she had known she was fighting a losing battle. For despite her vow never to get involved with a corporate dynamo, she was finding her attraction to him more and more impossible to resist.
But resist she must. At least until she discovered his true motives for being on the Great Barrier Reef island. And she felt sure she wouldn't have long to wait....
