Woah...
This is my first book by this author. I had heard of her before... So many great things too, and I have a couple of her other books on my kindle... But she's been that "Oh I will read her next" kind of authors and when you finally make it through half the ones you needed to, there is more added to the forever growing pile. So to finally read one of her books, and as expected... LOVE IT, I am kicking myself for not reading them sooner.
This book had me by the balls... I was at this authors' mercy. The suspense, the thrill, the mystery and of course the love, heat, and passion was intense, to say the least, and had me completely consumed from page one.
I can say now, I think there is more to read before this book to get more of an understanding of the couple that is featured, but in saying that... This was just as amazing as a standalone. I believe the series that connects to this one is called Captive series and is most definitely my next read by her!
How to review this without any spoilers... Ekkk..
In this book, we have Mateo and Sofia. Sofia is nothing but a pawn in her fathers' world and game and after her father tries to get Mateos boss out of the way for a new boss, it did not go to plan and Sofia ends up being the pawn in this sick game. Mateo's boss kidnaps Sopfia and asks him to keep her hidden and not take care of her... He does just that. The thing is, Mateo has longed for Sofia for so long... But he's no prince charming, and though he may love this woman, and he is trying to keep her safe, and though he may be ruling and dominant but he's always got her best interest at heart and he is willing to l0oking after her and keep her there with him. He also has a dark side... One he's not sure Sofia can accept.
So much happened... And I would love to dive in deeper, but I will leave it at that. This is one crazy love story, and it had me on the edge of my seat throughout the entire book.
Can we please just talk about Mateo?.... Holy shit balls. I am in love. Alpha. So fucking Alpha. Can I keep him? Please?
Sofia and Mateo together? The chemistry was off the charts... The tension, the dominance and submission elements. It was perfect. I am a sucker for these romances. They are my go-to's, forever favorites and this author has gained herself another fan.
6/5 Stars!

So.... I had a quiet day on my trip and well.... I read it all.
This book was dark and twisty and personally if it was a movie, I could talk my brothers into watching I'm sure. Just enough darkness to lure them, even though they aren't romance people.
I just was in love with it. Sofia was wow.... I love seeing interesting character plots. I of course find most points like that sad, but I haven't read many if any books with that perspective of what her history was.
I thought this book was... AMAZING
I would give it 10/10 if I could
Now on to see if I can get off this book high.

Didn’t really connect with the characters, didn’t care for them much, nor the storyline. I found this book quite boring. I also wish it was darker.
