Calista French is a society woman. Even though she no longer has the money, she has the pedigree.  But deep down inside Calista is a simple girl who just wants to take care of her sisters, her needs are secondary.  She works, she volunteers and she visits with her sisters when she can.  The problem is she needs money and Leonardo Grant has that money.  He can provide her with a safe life and college education for her sisters.  She doesn&#8217;t need a relationship or love, she just needs him to help her out and she figures he owes her because of the con he and his father pulled on Calista&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>Leo has the fortune and the drive to be even more successful in business.  A self-made man who rose up from his adoptive father&#8217;s con games.  He can&#8217;t remember the time before the accident that claimed his parents&#8217; lives, he only knows the hard childhood from which he escaped.  Now the one thing he needs is a society wife to get him into Philadelphia society, so when Calista French falls into his arms, he knows she is the perfect wife.  He, like her, doesn&#8217;t really want attachments, just the wife on his arm to get him into society.<\/p>\n<p>Neither Calista or Leo figure on falling in love, but they do just that. Both have secrets but will those secrets stand in the way of their love?<\/p>\n<p>The plot in <strong>Secrets of a Playboy&#8217;s Bride<\/strong> is predictable but that didn&#8217;t make it any less enjoyable.  I also enjoyed the characters.  Calista is an admirable person and Leo makes himself out to be a bad boy, but really he&#8217;s just scarred from his childhood.  When Calista and Leo come together the sparks fly and I enjoyed watching their love unfold.  They are both stubborn which is fun, but eventually they discover things about each other that help the love unfold.<\/p>\n<p>If you want an easy afternoon love story, then this is the book for you. It&#8217;s actually part of a mini-series by<a href=\"http:\/\/www.leannebanks.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <em>Leanne Banks<\/em><\/a>, but this is the first one I\u2019ve read.  The only time the mini-series really comes into play is at the end, so I didn&#8217;t feel like I missed out on anything by not reading the previous books.  Though I admit I am intrigued by the storyline of the mini-series and will seek out the other books.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> <span style=\"color: #008000;\">7 (Good ) <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Heat-Level: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #800080;\">3 (Sensual) <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myreadingroom-blogspot.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2540\" title=\"crystal\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/crystal.png?resize=519%2C79\" alt=\"\" width=\"519\" height=\"79\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<!--themify_builder_content-->\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-3233\" data-postid=\"3233\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-3233 themify_builder tf_clear\">\n    <\/div>\n<!--\/themify_builder_content-->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Secrets of the Playboy\u2019s Bride Author: Leanne Banks Publisher: Silhouette Desire\/Harlequin Pub.
