About this ebook

Jack Wylie is tall, dark, handsome and brave - he's everything you'd want in a kidnapper.

Ex-cop Jack Wylie is a born protector, tormented by the day he misjudged a criminal and his life took a tragic turn. Now he's on a mission to kidnap a woman to help her overcome a fear of being tied up.

He's been told by his psychologist brother to keep up the game until the woman gives him the sign. But there has been a big mistake. Jack has accidentally abducted the feisty and beautiful Molly Rhoades - a newly arrived local TV reporter who has secrets of her own. And she doesn't know the sign.

After a dangerous and unlikely meeting, Jack and Molly find themselves consumed by sexual tension, but things get even more complicated when Molly finds out that Jack is engaged to the local Councilwoman Amanda Everett, a ruthless career climber determined to succeed no matter what the cost.

But why did Jack kidnap Molly in the first place? Who is pulling the strings in this perverted puppet show? Jack vows to protect Molly until he finds out the truth, but the layers of deception and vengeance run deeper than he could have ever imagined.

Ratings and reviews

WARNING: You might become obsessed with this book. I read half of the story in one sitting (because I COULD NOT put it down), and when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about it, trying to piece the clues of the mystery together to figure out who the bad guy (or girl) was. The circumstances under which Molly and Jack meet are just so bizarre, so unique, I knew I was hooked from the very beginning. Natalie did a sensational job of keeping the plot moving and keeping me completely engrossed in the book. Every now and then, she would sprinkle some clues or some doubt and it would just keep me guessing. While I was busy playing detective, the tension between Molly and Jack just kept growing. And then, BOOM! Talk about HOT!!! But theirs is a passion that went deeper than just the physical, and holy moly I loved the Happily Ever After!!! (It almost brought me to tears) Romantic suspense books usually aren't my thing, I could take 'em or leave 'em, but I would take this one any day, and I have already pre-ordered another book in the series, REVENGE FOR HIRE, because I'm sure it's going to be just as phenomenal as this one!

Good but a few parts made me think why would anyone write that

About the author

Natalie S. Ellis worked behind the scenes in TV news for sixteen years and will always miss the rush of a breaking story. But the seduction of writing a fiery romance with twisty suspense is even harder to resist, especially when she has a new curveball for the plot. Natalie enjoys living in her hometown of Fort Wayne, Indiana, and attributes her cheerful attitude to empty nesting, a supportive family, and way too many lattés.
