Publisher's summary

A billionaire and a single mother have more in common than they know.

He's a billionaire businessman. Luciano Donati, entrepreneur and eligible bachelor, lost his first wife to cancer. So though he lives in romantic Charleston, SC, he has every intention of ignoring the upcoming holiday for lovers, at least until he sets eyes again on his younger sister's best friend. He remembers Anastasia as a teenager who idolized him, not this lovely, fragile woman with heartbreak in her eyes. Heartbreak that he finds himself wanting to cure. Her smile warms his soul, her touch ignites his desire, and her little girl Soo-Min melts his frozen heart. Adopted internationally himself at a young age, Luciano understands all too well the strong need to belong somewhere.

She's a single mom. Anastasia Markow, cancer survivor and divorced mother, didn't come to Charleston, SC for romance. She's here to make sure she has custody of her adopted daughter, Soo-Min. But when she encounters the first man she ever loved, here in the city of horse-drawn carriages and candlelight, her battered heart can't help but bloom again. And when Luciano and Soo-Min take to each other, resisting his charm becomes even harder. Handsome, self-assured, every inch the successful billionaire, Luciano is out of Anastasia's reach. But when a hurricane strands them together and they must trust each other to survive; things heat up despite the rain. Can Valentine's Day bring this unlikely pair together, this time for good?

emotional, sweet, and clean

I found Liz to be a very skeevy manipulative person. I don't know how Luciano couldn't see this, and how he could be "friends" with this type of person. This was a quick second chance romance with insta love, but I attribute that to this being a short story. I did appreciate Anastasia's growth and acceptance by the story's end and Eliza seemed to improve too. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

Good Read

I Love You More was a good read by Josie Riviera. Luciano Donati is a billionaire businessman, who lost his first wife to cancer. He doesn't want to find love again until he sees his younger sister's best friend. Anastasia was a teenager who idolized Luciano. Unfortunately, now she's a fragile woman who has heartbreak in her eyes. She's a single mom and cancer survivor who just wants to make sure that she has custody of her daughter. A hurricane strands them together and they must trust each other to survive. I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to read more by the author.

Endearing story

I loved this sweet story about old time friends who finally find each other. The author deals with a lot as there is International adoption, divorce, cancer, search for birth family, putting others needs in front of your own and she does it all very well.

The narrator did a great job with voices and accents. Such a cute child's voice.

Jumping to conclusions usually leads to disaster

Anastasia needs to stop jumping to conclusions. About her ex, about Luciano, about her lawyer and about herself. Not many people get a second chance with their high school crush, especially not once he’s become a billionaire. They both have a lot going on in their lives so they need to slow down and fill each other in before they ruin their chances. It was a very sweet story with an adoptive child’s best interest at heart.

A start about international adoption

This audiobook gave us Luciano Donati and Anastasia Markow.
Luciano was the young boy she had a crush on years ago but each went their separate ways.
When Anastasia, a cancer survivor and recently divorced Mom goes to visit Luciano’s sister, Luciano , now a widower and millionaire, is once enchanted with Anastasia.
During a terrible storm the friendship strengths. But Anastasia is determined to get full custody of her adopted daughter, and Luciano, who was adopted as a child, wants to find his biological family in Italy.
Though at times I felt that the side plots didn’t always seem to blend with the main story, it still was a sweet , clean romance.
I felt that at the forefront was the fact that international adoptions bring parents and children in need together to form a new family that will fill the hearts of all involved.
Finally, the narration of the audiobook was well done
