Wow! Such a great read! I was a little skeptical at first, but I am SO glad that I decided to start this series. I read the first book in a day and I plan to tackle book 2 tomorrow.

Okay why the hell did it take me this long to read this book! I am so mad at myself. This has been on my to-read list since forever and I am now reading how awesome this is! What is wrong with me!!! OKay rant is overe with. First of all Bianca and James are just amazing together - I felt the chemistry between them as I read and it gave me goosebumps at times. Bianca character is so loveable and strong, and that is saying a lot since she had a crappy childhood. She was not whiny, dumb, or naive she was strong and held her ground. James is alpha hear me roar but he is sweet, caring, and a great guy and does not push Bianca and that is what I like the most about him. He doesn't push her to a point of a breakdown. Stephen I just love him! and his "What the Fuck. " comments always cracked me up. Excited to find out what happens next.

Unfortunate that it took 87% for the story to really get going....

Great book. It's a great combination of BDSM and a legit plot. Who doesn’t like a billionaire fawning over them?

Ok.. So this was slightly more than I signed up for .. I was, for some reason, deluded enough to think this would be a cleanish book ... so imagine my surprise when I'm reading and there are suddenly nipple clamps, riding crops and a bunch of other BDSM stuff ... safe to say I was a bit confused!
So anyways, after the initial shock of it I kept going. .. I dont really have a a problem with BDSM books, in fact I find that whole world kinda intriguing in the sense that it boggles my mind that that actually exists. .. My only problem is that I find there is a fine line between it being a romantic yet steamy book or downright erotica. .. this crossed the line ... I needed less whipping and more talking. I loved the beginning with Stephan and James and the 'chase'.
The ending was a little disappointing for me and if it weren't for the fact that I had the second book already waiting in line to be read next I might of not finished this series.
