About this ebook

 The first time Aubrey Hargrave was “acquired” by corporate raider Griffen Woodlock, she was unable to resist his potent sexuality. She made the fatal mistake of mixing business with pleasure, but had to end their passionate affair to save her father’s reputation—and her heart. 

At 20, Griffen pushed his abusive father out of his CEO position to take the chair himself. Aside from indulging his passion for beautiful women, Griffen hasn’t made an emotional decision since. When Aubrey cuts short their white-hot affair, he tells himself she can easily be replaced. Except she can’t. 

Discovering Aubrey’s family secret gives Griffen the power to force a second take-over, but he intends to seize more than her business. He wants her. 

Ratings and reviews

Aubrey came into Griffen's orbit when he acquired her company. She enjoyed an intense professional and personal relationship until a family issue gave her a professional opportunity and the chance to save her heart. Griffen let her go, but started working to acquire her new company figuring he can "reacquire" her with it. When he discovers the family secret, he uses it as leverage to get her back into his bed. All Aubrey can do is work hard to keep him at an emotional distance. This was a short but intense story with an interesting story line and more emotion than you would expect with Griffen. As the story progresses, Griffen becomes more human, which is good, since initially he isn't very likable. Aubrey is a strong woman with professional and personal goals, who finally realizes she needs to stand up for herself. The two work and complement each other well. I really enjoyed the story, but do agree I would like to see an epilogue. **I received an Advanced Readers copy from the Publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

"Taken by the Raider" by Dani Collins is Aubrey Hargrave and Griffen Woodlock's story. The story starts off in the middle of Aubrey and Griffen's relationship. They had more than a working relationship, but had split up. Griffen couldn't forget Aubrey. What means will he go to in order to get her back in his life? Aubrey and Griffen come from two very different backgrounds. They have an intense sexual relationship. Is it just sex or is there more to their relationship? I enjoyed the story, but it was a little hard to stay focused. The author did a good joy of where the reader could feel the emotional struggles that Audrey and Griffen both were experiencing. I guess we all in many different ways allow things from our past to prevent us from taking a chance on something in order to protect ourselves. I received a copy of this book from Tule Publishing for an honest review. FYI, contains mature content.
