It is an exquisite story of how a man/hero can really love a woman! It is a pity we cannot meet Roman in real life! The story line is simple, with no extraneous detail and so it has a rapid pace. The macho hero does deserve a woman who can show a little more flexibility in certain situations. Anyway it is a must read romance for all who know what is love!

Caroline is struggling to keep her chain stores afloat, to keep her father’s illness from the press and to keep the identity of her son’s father a secret. But when Roman appears on the scene, she knows its hard to win.Five years ago, Roman and Caroline had been in love. But they hadn’t parted on the best terms. Now there is too much anger, too much hurt between them. Roman is full of hatred and he seeks revenge at any cost. He wants to takeover the Sullivan’s stores from under Caroline, to enjoy demolishing them and selling them piece by piece. To Caroline, Ramon is both the instrument of her destruction and the instrument of her happiness. The book has LRH’s trademark of tension and passion but I couldn’t warm to Roman and Caroline. It’s not easy to like a hero hell bent on revenge. Also the secret child is not one of my favorite tropes. Whatever the reason, I don’t like to keep a child a secret from the man who fathered him.

A Game With One Winner was a highly-passionate and emotionally-charged read about fiercely loyal Caroline and staunchly proud Roman, who were once in love and felt on top of the world with each other only to have fate step in and cruelly tear them apart. They are thrown back together when their paths cross years later while Caroline is trying to save her generations-old retail empire.As Caroline puts it, Roman has been circling for the last two years and she has known that one day he will turn up and take all that she has, all that she’s known and all that she is because of their past. Caroline is not only worried about their past coming back to haunt them but also their present which will ultimately affect their future.I think Lynn Raye Harris has done an extraordinary job of creating two characters who are at extreme ends of the spectrum, Caroline, of high-class retail royalty and Roman; a once-poor Russian who has had to crawl out from the bottom of the dirt heap to achieve his dreams only to be pushed back down to the bottom of the heap again. Lynn Raye Harris also wastes no time with Roman and Caroline, their worlds collide on page 2. Their silent gaze across the room to each other speaks volumes and I knew when Caroline high-tailed it out of there that I was in for a fantastic ride. Roman has a fierce determination to execute his plan and is determined to keep his feelings for Caroline buried deep but it’s evident from chapter one how they felt about each other. Caroline’s exceptional circumstances diverted her path away from Roman, each one more heart breaking than the other and while she’s crumbling inside while they jet-set around the world to visit her empire, she stands up and faces the world with her own fierce determination. The more Roman is involved with her the more his steel encased heart starts to crack open. So many reasons I loved A Game with One Winner it’s hard to pick just a few to mention. A Russian hero was unique to me because I haven’t read many stories with Russian heroes. It added something extra for me because the language is unique and unusual. Desere, above, touches on another unique feature of this book which I absolutely adored. It’s also no secret that I am a huge fan of second chance stories. For me A Game With One Winner ticks all the boxes: gripping tension, heart-breaking emotion, built up passion but above-all deep and powerful true love!

A Game With One Winner by Lynn Raye Harris begins with Caroline Sullivan and Roman Kazarov meeting face to face for the first time since Caroline called time on their relationship 5 years ago. This book was aptly named; Caroline and Roman are both fighting for Sullivan’s, one’s loss will be the other one’s winnings. Roman was an Alpha hero true to form. My one peeve with this book was that it was never quite explained how Roman went from being jobless to a Billionaire over a relatively short period of time – three years. I really liked Caroline and how tough her character was, she was no damsel in distress, she was tough and resilient under all the adversity she was faced with.A Game With One Winner by Lynn Raye Harris is a “classic” Presents loaded up on all the trope’s we enjoy in a category romance. If you a fan of the revenge plot; re-union stories; secret babies; second chances this book certainly has a little something for every category romance reader to appreciate and enjoy.
