Four Stars from Romantic Times

"The only thing you might not like about this book is your inability to put it down."

~Janalee Ruschhaupt for Road to Romance

An Erotic Romance

Romantic comedy in tone, this is the story of an uptight accountant who loses her inhibitions, but gains much more, when she leaves her beloved New York to work for an eccentric and charming billionaire in romantic Italy.


Mutual Holdings

What it's about

A successful New York accountant, Lisa Russo is happily single. At thirty she has a growing career, a nice home, and her nights are rarely lonely. It doesn't hurt that her business partner and ex-flame, Tony Mancuso, is always nearby to offer advice, and more, whenever she desires it.

But Lisa's pleasantly structured life gets thrown into chaos when handsome and sophisticated businessman Gianni Loren hires her to reconcile some of his foreign holdings. Gianni, however, is quickly smitten with much more than just Lisa's business sense. As the vibes between them progress from savvy to sultry, he asks her to join him back in Italy as a permanent member of his company, and his life.

But Lisa is not sure she's willing to give up her thriving career at home to risk it all on this one enigmatic foreigner, especially now that Tony, suddenly faced with the possibility of a life without her, is turning up the heat to keep her in the business, and with him.

Four stars from Romantic Times
"Has a When Harry Met Sally flavor."

~ Susan Mobley for RT

"DiPlacido grabs you with her descriptive voice in the candid dialogue between the characters, and humorous thought processes. The conversations are realistic and never come across as forced or clichéd. I was aroused throughout the story. The sex in Mutual Holding is damn near orgasmic."

~Sin St.Luke for JERR

"Ms. DiPlacido is a thoroughly seasoned author, and it shines through, with this outstandingly written book. Ms. DiPlacido lets Lisa do the talking, and what a talker Lisa is. She relates her tale of confused and frustrated love, leaving the readers in stitches. Lisa's dry humor is biting at times. You will come away from this story feeling like a friendship has developed. The closeness only a good writer can achieve and deliver to its fullest degree. The only thing you might not like about this book is your inability to put it down."
