SAFE IN THE TYCOON'S ARMS by Jennifer Faye is not part of a
multi-book series. The two main characters -- Lucas
Carrington and Kate Whitley -- are worlds apart financially,
but have more in common than they first suppose. This is
the first book I've read by Jennifer Faye but after reading
SAFE IN THE TYCOON'S ARMS, it will not be my last.
Kate and Lucas first meet in a very unorthodox way. Lucas
comes home unexpectedly only to find Kate has taken up
residence in his house. His kind-hearted aunt is
responsible for the confusion. One of the reasons I really
like the pairing of Kate and Lucas is because they are both
very sympathetic, good people and have a lot in common.
They both have toxic relationships with their extremely
difficult exes, and they both care deeply for their
children. There are many poignant scenes because of the
drama involving the children. In spite of the heavy themes,
the romance that develops between Kate and Lucas is
extremely steamy and not always full of drama. Part of the
conflict and obstacle to the two finding happiness together
is Kate's attitude toward relationships and men in general.
After being badly burned by past relationships with her
father and the father of her child, she has some emotional
scars.
Kate and Lucas are exactly the type of person each other
needs in their lives. Kate is an extremely caring woman,
great mother, and is attracted to Lucas. Likewise, Lucas
slowly proves himself to be the kind of man Kate has always
wanted to support her emotionally and be able to rely on.
Jennifer Faye does a nice job of balancing the sweet and
tender moments with the sizzling, erotic scenes.
SAFE IN THE TYCOON'S ARMS by Jennifer Faye is a very
emotionally powerful story of two broken people finding
each other and attempting to put their lives back together.
The epilogue puts a nice cap on the story. I look forward
to reading more stories by this author.
When billionaire Lucas Carrington returns to his New York
mansion, he never expects to find beautiful stranger Kate
Whitley making herself at home. Invited by his aunt to stay,
he soon discovers she's a woman in need. She's raising funds
for her sick daughter, so he agrees to let her
stay—temporarily!
Kate may not belong in Lucas's high-society world, but
she sees there is more to this tycoon than the headlines
suggest. Yet with so much at stake, can she trust herself
and her heart with New York's most sought-after bachelor?
