He throws the heroine out of his home because he finds out she is a talented pianist and heiress. The hero just blew it because of his reckless, false pride.
However this time, it was so overboard that it soured the last 15 pages of an otherwise really good book.
Her heroines are typically strong, intelligent women, but sometimes a little more forgiving than they should be. Her heroes are in a league of their own feisty, hard-core alpha, yet delicious enough that I can't help wishing I were 20 years younger. Her character development is very solid for a category romance and adds depth to her stories. Very few authors write them as "angsty" as she does. I am a huge fan of Yvonne Whittal's work. The hero is an ass, but YW shows us his vulnerable side (kinda). The heroine is strong and is convinced that love with save the day. Luckily the h can see how nervous he is and understands his aggression. He does - but almost blows it when he seeks out the h at her parent's mansion and is quite rude. The heroine is devastated and hopes the H will cool down eventually. The H sees an old newspaper clipping of her and kicks her out for lying. The heroine feels guilty about deceiving everyone and promises herself she'll tell the H after his brother's engagement party.
The H doesn't seem to mind since he's busy cornering the h in the kitchen for random interrogations and lingering kisses. (Might be the Porsche she's driving, might be the accent, might be the pianist hands) But the heroine persists and enjoys her stay very much. The H is suspicious of her from the beginning. She pretends that the h is the substitute sent by the agency and the h goes along because this is her chance to be an ordinary girl. The old lady has hurt her leg and needs someone to cook and fetch and carry. She manages to get lost out in sugar cane country and arrives at the hero's farm just as his mother's companion cancels on her.
Rich concert pianist heroine decides to chop her double-barreled surname to just "Smith" and travel through South Africa as an "ordinary girl." She was jilted two days before her wedding when her fiance decided he couldn't give up his true love to marry for money and she despairs of ever being loved just for herself.
