Come Away With Me (The Andrades) Kindle Edition

4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars 8,597 ratings

💛 A lighthearted billionaire romance by New York Times bestselling author Ruth Cardello 💛

Rich, powerful and sexy, Gio Andrade is a man who thinks he has everything… until late one evening, he meets the stunning brunette with curves that could tempt a far lesser man to sin.

Except she has no idea who he is. Or that he’s her new boss.

So when she mistakes the gorgeous billionaire for an intruder, attacking him with a lamp, she flees once she realizes her mistake, convinced she is out of a job.

But Gio isn’t done with her yet.

He can’t get the sexy and sweet woman out of his head.

But she’s hiding something from him. Could her lies bring them together or tear them apart forever?

Ruth Cardello hit the New York Times and USA Today Bestsellers Lists for the first time back in 2012. Millions of her sales are evidence that her books are akin to potato chips, addictive from the first one. She has created a multi-series billionaire world with a combination of escapism and realism that has gained her a faithful following of readers.

What Kindle Reviewers write about her:

"Wow, hot at every page. Heart-stopping, fear raging, mind-blowing wonderful."

"I'm a true fan of Ms. Cardello. I ran on to her first book a few years back and have been hooked ever since. I could go on and on about the story like of this book, but I'm not. All of her books are total page turners, unique, heart-wrenching, and I love them all. There aren't two alike in the bunch and I feel like I know the characters personally. I personally read 97 authors' books. And I buy every book they put out. This author is in my top 10. Great job and keep them coming."

"Love this series. Got me to start reading again. I look forward to the next book. Thank you for giving me the love of reading back."

Ruth Cardello was born the youngest of 11 children in a small city in northern Rhode Island. She spent her young adult years moving as far away as she could from her large extended family. She lived in Boston, Paris, Orlando, New York--then came full circle and moved back to New England. She now happily lives one town over from the one she was born in. For her, family trumped the warmer weather and international scene.

She was an educator for 20 years, the last 11 as a kindergarten teacher. When her school district began cutting jobs, Ruth turned a serious eye toward her second love- writing and has never been happier. When she's not writing, you can find her chasing her children around her small farm or connecting with her readers online.

    Julia has come to New York to sell her jewelry designs. She has taken a job to help pay the bills, while she sets out to find buyers. Little does Julia know that when she goes to check on an office that has been left open for her job as night security, her entire world would be turned upside down. She is taken by surprise and clobbers the man she finds in the office with a table lamp. Then she finds he is not an intruder, but the owner of the company.
    This is a hilarious love story where the heroine stays true to her beliefs and never falters from her values. By doing so she not only unhinges her boss Gio, (who is the typical multimillionaire who is used to getting his way) but she helps him see the true value of things in life. This is definitely well worth the read. I can't wait to start the 2nd book in this series!

    The only reason I didn't give this 5 stars, was due to our h giving in to fast. She was spunky, strong and honorable to a fault. But, she caved to fast and that bothered me. She did redeem herself and I loved the near ending when she stood up for herself.

    Our H is arrogant and closes himself off. How our h bring him around is well worth the read and their banter is spot on. I enjoyed how the author brought out all the personalities of the brother's and I can't wait for their stories.

    There is very hot descriptive lovemaking, but I did feel a connection to this couple so it seemed right. Romance builds slowly which is what I want in a story and we do get an HEA too. No cliffhanger for our couple, but of course you are curious how everything with the other family member's work
    out.

    There were more than a few twists and suspenseful moments and I would recommend this story. I am not going into the blurb, because many people have explained it better than I can, just what you may discover reading it. (ljb)

    Gio Andrade is the gorgeous, greek good CEO and head of his branch of the Andrade family. When his father died, there was no question he would head the family business and protect those linked to him by blood. One problem, the company his father had created was bankrupt and the family had split in more ways than one.

    Julie Bennett was in New York working to save her father's furniture business. With her mother sick with cancer and the furniture company about to financially default, Julia's solution was to attempt to sell her jewelry designs to the jewelers of New York, and so make the money necessary to save the family business. In the meantime, working night shifts as a security guard for the Andrades corporation paid her bills and allowed her to send money home.

    When Gio and Julie first meet it is like a scene from the Keystone Cops! It is after hours, he is not dressed in a suit but in sweats, and she is about to leave for the day. As she is checking why one of the doors in the executive suite is open, she finds Gio trying to break into a desk. Her reaction is defensive and this meeting ends with Gio's forehead sporting a huge lump after Julie slams him with a lamp in order to defend herself. And this is only the beginning of their tumultuous relationship!

    If you are a fan of Ruth Cardello's novels, you will be delighted by this book. It is funny, emotional, steamy and most of all entertaining. If you have never read her novels, this is a great beginning for you.

    I am voluntarily reviewing this book. Thanks to the publishers for sharing a copy of this book with me.

    As this is my very first review, I have to say that I have enjoyed this book tremendously. This book had all my favorite components of a good story in it. It had the intensity, the alpha male, the strong woman, connection to other characters in other books, happy ever after and lets not forget the great sex. No good book should be without it. I loved the emotional journey that the characters went on and how each person is some how woven into the story.The story moved along at a good pace. At no time was I bored or skipped pages to get to the end. It made me go and research the author and now I am so going to buy all her books in this and other series. It is a great book and start of a series and I would recommend it for those who wants a break from the paranormal type books.

    Fabulous read by Ruth Cardello. Who ever said rules are not meant to be broken is a fool. In this love story Gio is a powerful man that can have any woman his heart desires. He thinks he can wham bam and thank you mam and then move on. that is until he met new security officer Julia Bennett. All she wanted to do was get her job done and do it well until scanning the monitors she finds someone trying to break into a desk and Whack!! she lets him have it. Who knew that whack to Gio would knock some sense into him and he would change the way he ogled women. I love the spunk that Julia had she was determined that she was not a piece of meat that could be bought she wanted to work and make a name of herself by herself an with no one else's help. these two are good for each other they are complete opposites the chemistry is undeniable. Loved it!

    It is one book u can pick up and enjoy completely. Heroine is a strong character not someone who keeps on 'melting' and you would like Gio (Hero) too. Comic in parts and beautifully written, if you don't mind occasional stereotype. Don't go by cover, it is bit deceptive.

    I have read all of Ruth Cardello's books. With each book I have read I fall more and more in love with the story. I loved her Legacy Series. And now I love The Andrades Series. You will recognize the name Andrades from the Legacy Series. Trust me when I say this series is just as hot as her Legacy Series.

    Gio oh what a man he is. Sexy, Strong, and knows what he wants. I love how he is around Julia. Of course I love what happens when he is with his brothers.

    Julia man she is one strong woman. I love how she never gives up on selling her jewelery. I love how she doesn't back down from Gio. These two people were a match made in heaven. Oh and before I forget as if Ruth would let us forget that some of her Legacy Series Characters are in this book as well.
