My favorite so far and I've read them all.
Great story, good chemistry, good supporting characters... Strong bonds, a great setting for the story..The main characters They are characters that you root for despite being perfectly imperfect. Both book 1 & Book 2 are amazing. I would honestly love to have a book 3 about them!Can't wait for your new books! Fellow romance lovers If you haven't read Catarina Passarelli you're missing out on great reads!

Interesting Concept
Elena is an American business woman who heads to Italy to take a break from the pressure and notoriety of her position. She works in a cafe and meets Leo. They hook up, for lack of a better term, and the story continues. This does end on a cliffhanger and I am curious to see if their relationship continues based on where it left off and the event at the end of this book. That’s what is keeping me reading. This story is interesting at times, but at others seems to lack something, but I can’t put words to what it is.

Superb!
My first book from Ms. Pasarelli and I loved them both (The second one is Fighting for Mr. Beautiful.This book has a great an new twist to the Billionaire romance genre and I absolutely love the twist. In this book we have Elena a very unhappy woman who catches her man with another woman and decides to get over him by taking an open ended trip to Rome, once there she becomes a barista at Stella's Cafe, where she meets the Gorgeous Leonardo Forte, Rome's Golden boy. The two of them hit it fast and furious but their goals are not the same and then there is her secret standing between them.Read and enjoy the beauty of this book and know that you will need to read book two immediately as this one ends on an cliffhanger that will have you reading book two in no time. You will enjoy that one too!

Holy hotness
This book started in the first paragraph!! Elena comes home to a cheating boyfriend and leaves. But she leaves to Rome. You know that lung grabbing,goosebump raising feeling you get from the one, she gets that with Leo. Their love is sweet. Some people around them are not. And the hot chemistry is wow. On to the next book! Read this you won’t regret it.

Loved it
Great couple, great story ... Italy, wow and the food and amazing coffee yum. I love strong heroines and she is one of my favorites after reading so, so, so many books. Elena is so strong, stood up to Leonardo every time. Bravo to the author for writing her this way.Sexy, smart, rich this book has it all. I hope book 2 gives me everything I love when finishing a series.Typos, yes and missing words. I chose to disregard

Super saucy
Wow this book is so steamy I couldn’t believe it. The story line is very similar to 50 shades of gray yet has its own uniqueness. I did like this book even considering the similarities. Book 2 onward!

Not great!
Few things I didn't like; the romance was straight off the starting blocks. As it's a 2 book series, a slow burn would have been better. Lots of dialogue issues, I did wonder if it was translated from another language. My main issue though was it was just a bit amateurish, and without character definition. Won't be reading the second book, couldn't finish the first.

Alpha male and sassy female at it's best
The first book in the Eternal City series and first novel by this very talented author. Really loved it and got drawn into the story straight away. The romance is hot and steamy and won't disappoint. All set against the backdrop of Rome with it's the life and loves. A must 5 star read.

Elena und Leonardo Bd. 1
Zu Anfang störte mich, dass die Protagonisten die gleichen Vornamen hatten wie die aus Irene Caos Erotik Trilogie - doch nach und nach rückte dies in den Hintergrund und ich konnte das Buch wirklich genießen.Der Schreibstil von Caterina Passarelli ist wunderbar angenehm und leicht zu lesen., Einmal angefangen konnte ich das Buch nicht mehr aus der Hand legen, selbst dann nicht als mein Sohn mit seinem Freund in der Wohnung tobte - die Geräuschkulisse konnte erfolgreich ausgeblendet werden.Im Grunde ist die Handlung ziemlich vorhersehrbar und ich ahne schon, dass Elenas Geheimniskrämerei sie in den Hintern beißen wird, dennoch war es schön zu lesen. Die erotischen Szenen waren überschaubar in ihrer Anzahl und nahmen nicht zuviel von der Handlung ein. Was mich etwas störte war, dass nur wenig bis gar nicht auf die ominöse Gefahr (in der Leonardo schweben soll) eingegangen wird und plötzlich dieser Cliffhanger am Ende auftauchte.Die Charaktere sind sympathisch, wenn auch schon fast stereotypisch, wobei ich mich das ganze Buch hinweg immer wieder fragte: Wer schmeißt den Laden, wenn Elena einfach mal mir nichts, dir nichts von der Bildfläche verschwindet - klar, ihre beste Freundin ist der VP, aber geht das so einfach?Ihr merkt ich suche in den Krümeln nach Fehlern, doch grundsätzlich war es ein kurzes Lesevergnügen und ich bin froh, dass Bd. 2 der Dilogie derzeit gratis ist ...Mein Fazit:5 Sterne
