She manages to draw you in from that very first moment and make you feel emotionally bonded with both of the characters… even the ones that aren’t exactly of the mould that I would like. I think the reason that I enjoyed this story so much, even though it was filled with aspects that I seriously didn’t agree with… was the fact that Dohner is an awesome writer. Not really sure that there is a happy healthy ending either, but that’s a little less clear… But, really, the whole I’m going to kidnap you and own you… not what I would call a healthy, happy beginning to a relationship. I mean, it all ends well, they fall in love and ya da ya da ya da. Flint literally kidnaps Mira because he’s decided he wants her. And although she definitely seems to like the alpha male trope, this one definitely took that to the next level. This is my second series by Dohner that I’ve started. And yet, for all of that pushiness that I was really uncomfortable with, I did, ultimately enjoy this story… It was the only moment of real fight that she displayed and FINALLY made the stupid, pig headed male in this story sit up and pay attention to what she was saying. Actually, my favourite part of this story was when she threatened to jump, because she was at her wits end. Mostly because it was a little too pushy and filled with moments in which Mira didn’t actually have a choice. As with some of the more erotic romances I’ve been reading lately, I finished this with mixed feelings.
