A romance lover in possession of a Katie Fforde book doesn't want war with anyone.
"The perfect balance of humor and romance has made Katie one of the UK's most beloved authors over the past two decades. Her latest release, An Offer You Can't Refuse , holds the same allure as her previous works, and I confess, it didn't take me more than a few lines to fall in love with the heroine.
Sophie is too busy caring for her family to have time to pursue her own dreams. Without an academic background, as her relatives—selfish, greedy, and broke—are constantly fond of pointing out, the young woman seems to fit more into the role of a housekeeper than a member of the Apperly family. While visiting a distant uncle, she discovers that her ancestors once owned an oil well in the United States and that it might still be worth some money. Which would be the solution to everyone's financial problems.
With nothing to lose, Sophie leaves England for New York determined to solve this mystery. But fate puts her in the path of Matilda, a lovely and resourceful woman who will stop at nothing to get what she wants. The connection between the two is immediate; the only problem is her grandson. Arrogant, snobbish, irritating, and ridiculously rich (and handsome), Luke doesn't look kindly on this friendship and will do everything in his power to keep Sophie from getting too close to his grandmother's heart. If only he had taken the same care with his own...
What happens when Cinderella meets the not-so-charming prince in real life and they both realize that such different worlds will never fit together?
It was impossible not to surrender to the sweetness of this romance, not to root for the protagonist, or not to wish for the impossible to happen. An offer you can't refuse is an invitation to curl up in an armchair and let yourself be enveloped by this modern fairy tale. An invitation you can't refuse!
