I found this to be a highly entertaining read that kept my attention with all the twist and turns that came with it. They have a past that blows you way, there is anger, drama along with sadness that makes you want to reach out and hugs these two people. There was a time or two that I raised my eyebrows in question but it blended well with the story. This is a book I read at one setting I just could not put it down the author pulled me in and never let me go. Stergios and Jodie have a past with a chemistry that you can feel through the pages. There are some hot passionated scenes with the tug of war this two are well match with their hot tempters as words fly from their mouths and passion flies you never are left guessing how these two feel.
Jodie has spent her life trying to get the attention of her parents in all the wrong ways. She has been kicked out of every school they have put her in. All she wants are parents that love her and show her how much she means to them. What she got were people who didn't have time for her. The last time she saw her father she was banish from his home due to her behavior. Sometimes things are not as they seem as we protect those around us. At 18 she moves on making a life for herself away from all the hurt and pain her parents give her. She always thought the time would come when she would make peace with them. What she finds is it is a little to late for her mother when she dies. She makes up her mind to work things out with her father. That meeting doesn't go so well all they remember is her past and wonder what she has up her sleeve. She must face Stergios who still pulls on her heart and the attraction is as strong as ever. She relives her past with him but she will not let the man get the better of her, she will stand her ground. All it took was one night when the passion got out of hand again for it to change her whole life. I really enjoyed this character she was strong, giving and caring. Her mouth always seems to get her in trouble as she can't stop the words from coming out it. She stands her ground and gives back all that she is given. My heart really went out to her and all she has had to deal with over the years.
Stergios is a true Greek strong, caring, and passionate, he will not let anything happen to his family they are the most important things in his life. He will build a mega power through marriage to protect his family. No harm will come to them on his watch. What he wasn't expecting was his past to hit him in the face as one lady walks back into it. She could change things and harm his family. He will not let that happen. He recalls the one night they had long ago and finds she still has a strong pull on him. He makes a choice for better or worse that will change his life as he knows it. He finds this little hot tempter will give him his run for his money as he finds he chases her across the planet to make her his. I really enjoy this character he is very strong and alpha. Any women would fall for him in a heartbeat. My heart went out to him for what he had to go through at the hands of his father. He is going to have to learn to not only trust in his self but in other before he can comment to any woman.
This is the first book I have read by this author but it will not be the last. I really enjoyed the read it has a wonderful plot with outstanding characters that speaks to you. You have compassion for them as they go back in time giving you a heartbreaking story. There are a few I didn't care for but you aren't meant to as others who really grab you and pull on your heart. I thought at times the story might be a little over the top but it does blend well. There was a place I had to go back an reread because it jumped and lost me but after rereading it I found my way. This is a page turn with all the twist and turns. It was a book I could not put down. I have always fallin in love with Harlequin authors they have some of the best story tellers. If you are looking for a hot read that will keep you on the edge as these two dance around each other you should pick this book up. I doubt you will be able to put it down.
