Overview

A sudden death
A shattered family
She travelled from Sydney to Sicily, an unwanted intrusion into their lives.
Past tragedy had torn two families apart. Can a new tragedy seal the rift?
She remembered a childhood hero not this man with his obsessive need for order, and one who meets every attempt at peace with anger and resentment.
Lia is everything he has never wanted but she calls to a darkness in him, pushing his buttons at every opportunity. Is salvaging family unity all she wants?
Sometimes Destiny steps in with its own its own agenda. Passionate desire will overrule propriety and common sense under the influence of a Mediterranean sun. Decisions made will change lives.
Will something new emerge from the ashes of the past? Love or Obsession? Are they the same thing?

Editorial Reviews

"Both characters are strong, so they fit perfectly together as a couple. The romance is steamy yet sweet. Strickland pulls off what some writers don’t. She writes a steamy love scene, but all the emotions and love her characters feel are also present. She combines both aspects perfectly."
"At first, I was worried that this would be another dominant male, submissive female story. It wasn't. Angelia is a woman who knows when to bend and when to stand her ground. She is as stubborn and emotionally damaged as Nico, but unlike him, she understands the power of love."
"There’s a lot of tension in the book, generated from the numerous opportunities for vast misunderstandings to develop. There were many occasions where I thought the relationship would turn destructive and explode apart – but Lia’s integrity, empathy and insights steered them past those rocks time and again."
"A dramatic start set the scene. I was hooked by the second chapter. Loved the journey of jumping between Australia and Italy adding to the intrigue."
"Unexpected Obsession is more than a standard romance. It's women's fiction at its best. It's the story of a man crippled by his inability to give up personal control to the vagaries of life and love and the woman who shows him the way."
"Here we indeed see the depth of Nico’s flaws and the strength of Lia’s personality. These two create a storm filled with electricity and power that everyone around them feels. This final date takes us to Sydney before returning us to Italy. Aspects tugged at my heartstrings and kept me wondering if a happily ever after was possible."
