Escape with Her Latin Lover 

When Mary Delaney is offered an all expenses paid, luxury holiday in South America with her journalist boyfriend, the last thing she expects to happen is to find herself stuck in the middle of nowhere with no boyfriend, no money and no way of getting back to London. When an irresistibly sexy landowner, Don Paulo de Castile, tells her that he has just won her in a game of poker, should she believe him, or try to find out what has happened to her missing boyfriend?

Paulo didn't realise at the beginning of his poker game that he was playing to win Mary, a woman who bears a striking resemblance to a person he once loved. However, it takes more than a game of cards to win Mary's heart and Paulo isn't the only local man interested in her. As well as battling for Mary's affection, he has to fight off the attentions of the local mafia in a fight that can have only one outcome . . .

Praise for Her Latin Lover

"Her Latin Lover will capture your attention from the beginning. Meet Mary Delaney, a 20-something on vacation with her boyfriend. They are in South America, a long way from home. She wakes up to discover her boyfriend is gone. She realizes she is stranded and her boyfriend took all of their cash. She also finds out more details of what lead her boyfriend to abandon her when she meets Paolo.

Even though she is stranded in South America with little money, she makes the best out of her situation. She must depend on a complete stranger named Paulo. Paulo is mysterious and caring. Mary is drawn to him.

I read Her Latin Lover in two nights. Mary's adventures of trying to find out what happened to her boyfriend, learning more about Paulo and making it work in South America was an exciting read. She was forced to grow up, find her way, and along the way follow her heart."

From the Author

I hope you enjoy reading Her Latin Lover. I love to travel and visit new places. Luckily I have never been in a situation like Mary Delaney's, but I started this novel by thinking about what would happen if someone woke up one morning and found themselves in the middle of nowhere with no money. What could have happened the night before to lead to such a situation and what would they do next?

#1 Amazon Bestselling Author

Katheryn Lane is the bestselling author of numerous romances, including the bestselling sheikh romances Trapped by the Sheikh, The Royal Sheikh, The Desert Sheikh, A Bride for the Sheikh and The Sheikh's Beloved.

When she's not writing, Katheryn spends her time looking after two boisterous boys, so most of her days are taken up with finding lost school shoes, getting stuck in traffic and wondering why she always joins the queue that doesn't move in the supermarket. However, she tries to forget these daily problems (and the fact that she burnt the toast again this morning) by losing herself in a good book and writing novels that give readers a break from everyday life.

Open one of her books and escape on an adventure to an exotic location, because it's easier to buy a book than it is to book an air ticket.

Have a break, read a book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Better Plot than I Anticipated
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2012
Verified Purchase
With the synopsis, cover and the title I expected this book to be short on depth and characterization, falling more on the steamier side. (Not saying thats a bad thing.) The book was nothing like I had anticipated. Mary is stranded after her lout of a boyfriend Nick loses her in a poker game... The winner is now responsible for Mary while Nick flees the town with all their money. Sounds like the beginning of an erotica tale. I was surprised however at the depth of the plot, the strength of our characters, how Mary grew within the story and how much I really liked the hero.
Some additional pros: It was nice that they did not annoyingly fall in love in three days, it was more of a gradual process, without all kinds of flowery dialogue when it was acknowledged. I also liked that it look place in a country outside of Europe and North America (and did not involve commandos or Seal teams!). The author was able to do a great job with local color and scene setting without long winded descriptive prose- a bonus for me.
I will definitely read another of her books.

Mary Delaney, a young school teacher from London, wakes up in a dingy hotel in rural South America. She's been abandoned and left penniless by her partying boyfriend. On top of that, she learns that a local man has taken ownership of her during a card game. The man who won Mary in the card game is haunted by his family's a sorrowful and violent past. Mary's actions during a scuffle with the local mafia delay her return home and threaten her future. She struggles to communicate and understand the rules and the laws of a foreign country.

This is a wonderfully crafted love story that lands the reader in the middle of South America. The characters are well developed. The images are sharp and clear. The story evolves quickly and smoothly. This is a very good story that can be read in one day and remembered for a lifetime.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great second romance!
Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2012

Katheryn Lane had me at hello! Her Latin Lover is a wonderful blend of spunkiness and romance. It has to be everyone's worst fear to be stuck in a foreign country without any friends or money. Fortunately there is a handsome man who is willing to come to the rescue of the damsel in distress, but this damsel is no one to be messed with. She has backbone to spare. Of course you can't have a romance without a little mutual attraction and lots of flat-out chemistry. If you have ever fantasized about the strong silent type this is the book for you.

The premise of this story had great potential. The writing was stiff and often awkward. The dialogue was often stilted. It would have been wonderful to see the characters developed more fully. I had to struggle to finish it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Finally A Strong, Intelligent Beautiful Female
Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2012

I was happy to see that Mary didn't just let people walk all over her during her dilema. Don Paulo was adorable I kept forgeting he wasn't from the UK or the states his character didn't fit the stereotypical Macho spaniard I'm used to reading about. Anyway the story was a good one I only have one complaint and it's that I would have liked to find out Nick's feelings in all that occured, I needed more or better closure than was given. I got lucky and got this one free and will look for others by this author. Read it in one sitting but must admit I skipped to dialogue when things got to descriptive, I am an impatient reader at times. Enjoy

3.0 out of 5 stars Lovely story with very likable hero and heroine
Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2012
Verified Purchase
Her Latin Lover was a very sweet story about how a good (and very sexy) man came to the aid of beautiful and feisty woman who was left stranded with almost no money by her sleazy boyfriend in a small town somewhere in South America. Paolo not only helped Mary out of that situation, he really saved her from the very awful fate of being "lost" in a poker game to an extremely bad (and disgusting) local member of the mafia.

Other than hot kisses and an erotic dance together, when Paolo and Mary finally do have sex, it is all implied rather than described. There is also no vulgar language used in this story. The imagery was done very well; there were detailed and realistic descriptions that really enabled me to immerse myself in the story. I will admit that there were some parts that weren't very believable but there was such a beautiful HEA ending that I was left with really good feelings. I enjoyed reading this story very much and I would certainly recommend it to others.

Wieder so ein Buch, das ich trotz magerer 109 Seiten nicht geschafft habe, zu Ende zu lesen.
Alles zu dünn und zu kitschig.
Gut, dass es ein kostenloser Download war.

Okay so if you are looking for a little romance mixed with quite a few major problems and a few twists and turns along the way then this is a read for you.

Poor Mary thinking she's going on a luxury holiday with her boyfriend Nick couldn't actually be more wrong. Although the trip is work related for Nick who in actual fact is a first class idiot, the hotel is grim to say the least; Nick seems to do a disappearing act daily then in fact disappears altogether leaving poor Mary abandoned in foreign country. To Mary's despair she's not only abandoned but penniless too! The creepy hotel manager is demanding money that Mary doesn't have and to make matters worse Mary finds out that she has become a prize in a game of poker! Like you do!

However, not all is lost as local landowner the handsome Don Paulo turns up to claim his prize....Mary, the chemistry soon becomes apparent and the story takes on a new twist as the evil El Leon is out to claim Mary as his own too. Sparks begin to fly, problems begin to intensify and everything has the potential to get disastrously worse and it does!

In the end all is well that ends well, injuries and court cases a side, this story left me wanting to read into the next chapter and the next to find out exactly what was going to happen. I wasn't disappointed and would recommend this read to anyone who wants to put their feet up and get lost in the drama for an afternoon.

5.0 out of 5 stars I loved this book...

Her Latin Lover was all I wanted it to be! Mary Delaney finds her self stranded in South America after her weak and somewhat coward of a boyfriend ups and leaves without so much as a goodbye after he gets himself in a spot of bother at a poker game with the locales. It soon transpires that Mary is stuck with no money and no way of leaving the country for several weeks. With $16 dollars in her pocket and feeling very confused, Mary convinces herself their must be a simple explanation for her boyfriends disappearance and temporarily gives him the benefit of the doubt.

Then along comes Paulo de Castile, a handsome Latin native who saves her from a fate worse than death by El Leon who is a Mafiosa and a very cruel man. It's not long before the sparks between them ignite a strong passion that neither of them can deny. But the road to happiness is way off yet as Mary find herself caught up in an incident which sees her future in jeopardy. This is a sizzling love story that will leave you begging for more.

I have read several of Katheryn Lane's books now, The Sheikhs beloved and Married to the Sheikh among them. I am a huge fan of this author as I love a great romance story and the author weaves a fabulous romance.

Mary is abandoned by her journalist boyfriend in a foreign country, apparently 'won' in a poker game by the mysterious Don Paulo. I was baffled by Mary failing to fall apart at finding herself in such a horrendous situation or show any emotion other than whether she should allow Don Paulo to buy her lunch. The plot had potential but took ludicrous turns. I gave up half way through. If you are happy reading a novel which basically centres around a macho man bedding a vacuous female, then keep reading.
