Life is good for Rolan Anthony Paxton
with a fantastic career as wide receiver for the Patriots,
tons of money, great looks and a continual rotation of women
in his bed. The problem is that Rolan has become jaded by
all the false adulation, greedy women and worst of all a
younger wide receiver is vying for his job.
Things have never been easy for Sarita
Khan; her Indian father abandoned his Irish American wife
and his daughter Sarita during her childhood. Then her
mother is caught having an affair with the local big wig
rich husband. Finally, Sarita gets pregnant the night she
looses her virginity to the local football star after their
big high school game and the boy leaves town before she can
tell him.
Years of tough times and hard work have
Sarita, along with her son Anthony Rolan Khan, earning a
decent living as cook aboard a private luxury yacht anchored
in Monaco. Imagine Rolan’s surprise when he emerges from
the stateroom and bumps into his identical image at ten
followed by seeing Sarita serving lunch on the yacht.
Sarita and Rolan have a lot to discuss, right now.
The classic story of a hidden love child gets the modern
telling in Manacled in Monaco. Author Jianne
Carlo showcases her talent putting together Manacled
in Monaco with a fresh, sexy spin. Sarita is a
great female lead character filled with strength, gumption
and a loving heart. Rolan on the other hand is hard to like
even though he embraces fatherhood willingly and happily.
His possessiveness and bully attitude grates quickly so that
it’s really hard to ever like the guy. For the most part
Rolan redeems himself but some might find Manacled in
Monaco overwhelmed by a jock jerk. Having said
that, Manacled in Monaco does have a lovely
romance with a sweet ending that justifies Sarita’s reasons
for forgiving Rolan. |
