About this ebook

He didn’t understand loyalty until she stripped it away… 

Damian Stone was a distinguished member of the NYPD, on the fast-track to an FBI career until a crime syndicate ambush cost him his partner and his ambitions. Recruited by an elite security agency that leverages his hyper-protective instincts to shield notorious trial witnesses, Damian never met a charge he couldn’t safeguard. 

Until her. 

Alexa Volkov lived a privileged life, far from the messy underbelly of her father’s Russian mafia. As a crime boss daughter, she is in a unique position to collapse the organization from the inside out. Her plan to testify against the mob patriarch puts a bounty on her head that would tempt even the most trustworthy cop—especially one hell-bent on punishing her for the sins of her father. 

But the safe house part of Damian’s protection plan is anything but safe. In a place where alliances are not what they seem and the most dangerous heat bearing down on them is the forbidden burn of seduction, the only thing more at risk than life is a lethal hit to the heart.  

Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed this book, it's not edge of your seat gripping, but is a good read with plenty of sparks between Damian and Alexa. The plot has plenty of twists and turns, doubts on who they can trust, fury and frustration at both the past and their present situation and is fast moving, but there are a few instances of the wrong words being used or poor spelling which does interrupt the flow of your reading slightly and is the reason for 4 stars rather than 5. However this did not stop me buying and reading the next two books in the series....all are full of drama and intrigue.

One minute the heroine beats a man unconscious by bashing his head to the steering wheel, by her left hand only. Next minute she is helpless because can't inflict any damage to another man, by using both hands, mind you.

It is OK but if Alexa had to look at her father and told him that she is going to testify against him and his fathers people actually taking Alexa so that Damian will have to struggle to free her it would have been much better but thanks for letting me read your book

Leslie North is the pen name for a critically-acclaimed author of women's contemporary romance and fiction. The anonymity gives her the perfect opportunity to paint with her full artistic palette, especially in the romance and erotic fantasy genres. 

The truth of the matter is she loves her fictional persona, Leslie North, more than her normal, day-to-day persona! Her bestselling books focus on strong characters and particularly women who aren't afraid to challenge an alpha male. Inspired after years of travel, her stories are set all over the world, from the tough streets of Russia to the beautiful beaches of the middle east. 

Leslie fell in love with romance when she first picked up a scrappy, dog-eared romance book from her local library. She began writing soon after and the rest, as they say, was history. She now lives in a cozy cottage on the British coast and enjoys taking long walks with her two Dalmatians, George and Fergie.
