TITLE: Priceless (Rothvale Legacy, #1)
AUTHOR: Raine Miller
RELEASED: September 2014
SYNOPSIS:
Ivan Everley, 13th Baron Rothvale, will tell you himself he's the LAST person on earth who should have custody over a priceless collection of art, but since when does the irony of life ever fall in line with what somebody wants? Ivan might be a Lord according to British law, but he's just a regular guy with an appetite for speed...and women...and some dominating kink in the bedroom. Yeah, just a regular guy who happens have Olympic gold medals stashed away in his house. Riiiight. His public profile is merely a sham--his private life a carefully guarded secret borne out of the pain of betrayal. Even his famous cousin, Ethan Blackstone, doesn't know the whole story about the man he considers a brother.
Lord Ivan has a plethora of problems piled up to his aristocratic eyeballs--that only get more complicated when a beautiful art conservationist shows up to appraise his inherited collection of paintings--but that doesn't stop him from digging himself in deeper. Nope, not a bit. Once Ivan gets a taste of Gabrielle Hargreave, mistaken identity or not, he can't think of anything else but how perfect she felt in his arms the night he first laid his eyes on her.
He wants her, and what Ivan wants, Ivan gets. He is Lord Ivan after all. Gabrielle soon discovers that the Dom in him isn't taking 'no' for an answer. But, yet, Gabrielle Hargreave might just teach our discontent lord a thing or two about life, and about himself, and help them both discover the undeniable truth in what it means to find something genuinely...priceless.

REVIEW BY: Ashley
What can I say? Raine Miller has never disappointed me before, and PRICELESS is no exception. If you've read The Blackstone Affair books, you've already met Ivan and Gaby as secondary characters. I already liked them A LOT when I met them there.
I have to admit...when I first started reading this, I felt a little disappointed, mostly because of Ivan's behavior. I honestly had to set it down for a day. But when I came back to it, and got past that part, I couldn't stop reading it!
Gaby is, of course, as lovely as ever. But I was a little shocked when I was introduced to her 'personally'. There are some things I didn't realize about her before. And Ivan...like I said before, I was disappointed in him at first. But once he got over himself, MMM!
PRICELESS is very steamy. Gaby and Ivan's chemistry is off the charts. But if you've read other of Raine Miller's novels, I feel like there was actually a little less steam and detail than I expected. And that's ok.
And HOLY MOSES, that ending?!?! I NEED to know the answer to that question!!!
4.5 Stars
