    My gawd!! From the prologue to the first chapter until the very last written word, this book delivers! I was blown away by this story. Etienne "Tee" Shaw and friends make a decision that begins a series of events that ultimately lead her to meeting the very sexy and handsome former mercenary Mercuri Nicolaides. The series of events that follow this meeting is the backdrop for a great love story. Really appreciated how this author didn't allow the horrible incident turn Tee into a bitter, down on her luck woman. Instead we get to see a strong, successful although haunted woman working to overcome a life changing incident. This book is as much about the sisterhood of the four heroines as it is about Tee and Mercuri's relationship. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to read the next two. Let me add that I actually purchased and read this book in 2016. I read it again when the third book was released. I was blown away by it then and appreciate it even more on my second read. By re-visiting the book I "discovered" pieces of the story that I somehow missed in the first reading. It. Was. That. Good. I am a fan!

    I think I just stumbled upon a new series that is sure to keep me entertained. Read this book in on sitting and boy did I enjoy it. I hope this author can deliver the next installment soon - what a ride. Absolutely love the new Greek alpha heroes. I've been to Greece and I have to say, there is nothing better then being in the presence of very tall Mediterranean Greek men - yum. Love the other characters - was trying to match them up but my matches did not align with what the author seem to have mind but we shall see. One thing I have to say is that I am still a bit confused about Prin's ethnicity so really eager to read her story. Good read - definitely recommend it.

    This book was intense. It had drama, humor, and was paced nicely. Mercuri and Tee were a great couple, with lots of chemistry. The story had lots of mystery and suspense. This was a page turner.
    I look forward to reading more from this author. Hopefully, all of the friends get their own full stories.

    I don't have that many words to say engaging this story was,from the beginning to the end.This was a well written story that ran the total course of emotions and feelings.This was a book of mystery and intrigue that kept you on the edge at all times.I love that we get a heroine that doesn't sit back and feels helpless but jumps into action save herself and knows when to ask for help.The chemistry between the two main characters is so hot that they burn the pages every time they are in a scene.You are also getting a well rounded supporting cast who can bring just as much heat,I look forward to reading more from this crew.This was just an sexy,mysterious,intriguing story that borders on the savage.This was so worth all of my reading attention and time.

    Honestly, this story moved kind of slow, but I did enjoy it overall. I was a well written story. I loved Mercuri and Tee together. They had a good connection and chemistry, hence the reason why they engaged in “relations” so often...lol. I got tired of them hunching all the time after awhile. Nevertheless, you could definitely feel the love between them. I look forward to reading the next book in the series. Good job, Ally Fleming!

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 28, 2017
    This is my first book by this author. I loved the story and the couple. However, I enjoyed it more when I got to Part 2 of the story, as I felt Part 1 was slow and not get into the romance until Part 2. I think if the romance was started from the beginning and then we found out the circumstances of the story I would have enjoyed the story much more. Definitely worth a read.
