The Redemption of Rico D'Angelo
THE REDEMPTION OF RICO D'ANGELO by author Michelle Douglas is a Harlequin Romance release for October 2013.
Rico D'Angelo opens a charity café to have all his disadvantaged kids and kids living on the street work there. His plan--to train these youth for better future prospective employment opportunities.
In need of a café manager, he hires Neen Cuthbert. But Neen takes everything in her stride. She realizes that though Rico was helping these kids, he keeps a part of himself apart. He closes off his heart to any hurt by trying not to get emotionally involved. She discovers that Rico is a very sincere, courageous and an honorable person and can't help but fall helplessly in love with him. Would Rico reciprocate her feelings? Is he ready to move forward from his past tragedy? And then they discover someone wants Neen down and out. Who could it be? Who set fire to her house? And is trying to threaten her?
THE REDEMPTION OF RICO D'ANGELO is an intriguing mix of sweet romance and is also filled with mysteries. Once you start reading, you will be hooked from the first page till you end the story. Rico is a tortured hero and Neen is one sexy, feisty heroine. Author Michelle Douglas presents this sparkling romance. There is good, fast and witty dialogue. And the story is intensely emotional.
Highly entertaining and well worth reading!

Most people come from a difficult childhood, not everyone makes it out of there alive or living on the straight and narrow, but for some they pull up from the gutters and get our there to make a difference.
One such person is Rico, he has shown an enormous amount of courage and strength to make his way onto the path of a normal life, only his life is not half as normal as it should be.
Yes, he works hard to help others in need, saving one at a time is the name of the game, but instead of tasting sweet victory he feels empty and lifeless, like it is all worth something to the person being saved but to him just another day, another one for the rescue books.
That is until I-am-the-light-in-the-dark Neen walks into his life, she is a brilliant ray of sunshine shining through the clouds of grey, and soon he wants a piece of that warmth but to let go of his past wounds and let the sunshine in is of course easier said then done.
The character of Rico was very fascinating, I found myself wanting to dig deeper and deeper to get to the wounds lying in wake on the surface of someone that to the outside world seems to have it all. The author letting him be this empty shell of a man while still maintaining a air of perfection was a really stunning addition.
