ACTION PACKED!Ok so this book reminds me of a film called TAKEN the scenario is the same, young girl goes to paris gets snatched by human traffickers but there's no William Neilson the outcome is different and Liv is definitely not his daughter. I enjoyed it, lots of action not as hot as I would of liked but the age gap did make me feel uncomfortable for some reason, I kept seeing Liv as a young girl maybe it was her meekness I'm not sure because she was 18, maybe it was her reference early on i [...]

ARC provided by author for an honest review. This book seemed familiar at first and then it hit me(pun intended), thinke movie Taken. This book has a similar storyline with a twist and romance with some sexy times. Our lead male Max is a kick ass, get the job done ex bravata. Our female lead Liv is an 18yr old innocent gymnast but when push comes to shove she is a strong girl. Together they are an unusual couple but an awesome one. If I'm ever in trouble can I have a man like max fall for me?!? [...]

Having finished graduating high school the next thing that might change her future plans around is being able to get an opportunity to study and live abr [...]

Almost 5 stars. I'm not a fan at all of anything mob related, so attempting something new was rather a spur of the moment for me the fact the h was quite young. Not illegal young, but I tend to avoid books where the couples aren't at the very very least in their late 20s so at first I did regret my starting the story when I started into Liv's first chapter but persisted because I was already liking the H at that point.He'd had a harsh existence: one he was doing his best to escape in comparison [...]

The Master Storyteller has once again crafted the most awesome thrilling story ever. There is non-stop action from the first page to the last. Everything was detailed so well it was like watching a movie in my mind. It's difficult to say anything about details because then it would ruin this masterpiece for the next reader. For the action lover, there are speeding cars, flying bullets, explosions; for the romantic, there is a beautiful love story of a Hitman struggling to lay to rest all the ugl [...]

I received an ARC book for a honest review. So here goes I absolutely loved this book. It grabbed me at the prologue and kept me on the edge of my seat, wondering what was around the next corner.

Excellent read! I was not expecting some of the things that happened and that thrilled me! I loved the description of Paris and the thought of going up the Eiffel Tower excited me. I can just imagine Liv being there for the first time and looking around so wide-eyed and amazed. I liked the sound of the little small town she was from. I have been to many places like that in North Carolina. I was amused with Felix. He did seem like the typical computer nerd. The ordeal Maggie and Liv go through is [...]
