About this listen

Anthony Rawlings had a plan - to teach Claire Nichols to behave. Claire Nichols had a plan - to survive! In an unfamiliar bedroom within a luxurious mansion, Claire Nichols wakes to memories of a brutal abduction. All of her recollections have one common denominator, the man she just met - Anthony Rawlings. Unbeknownst to Claire, Anthony has had her in his sights for a long time. Every action has consequences - and his actions resulted in their chance meeting. Facing incomprehensible circumstances, Claire must learn to survive as she comes to terms with her new reality - every aspect of her livelihood is now dependent upon the tall, dark-haired, dark-eyed tycoon. Anthony may appear to the world as a prosperous, benevolent, kind businessman, but in reality Claire learns he is also a menacing, controlling captor with very strict rules: Do as you're told, public failure is not an option, and don't divulge private information. Failure to follow these rules, and more, is met with serious consequences.

In an effort to earn her freedom, Claire learns her lessons well, and before long, she unknowingly captivates her captor. Anthony/Tony reluctantly becomes enthralled with Claire's beauty, resilience, and determination. Their interaction instigates strong emotions - including fear, anger, love, and lust - as their journey flows into uncharted waters of intrigue and passion.

From the opening criminal abduction, through the twists and turns, to the unlikely romantic thrills, the suspense climaxes as Aleatha Romig utilizes vivid detail, allowing this novel to unfold like a movie. Can you put the pieces of the puzzle together? Claire Nichols abduction wasn't a random act - did she learn her lessons well enough? Will these unlikely lovers remain true - or will she learn the truth before it's too late?

Consequences

I had a lot of mixed feelings during this book and I guess since those feelings were big elements in the following books of the series that was the goal but a lot of this book I hated how Claire was treated and her reactions to how she was treated.... and yet I couldn't put the book down.

I will say that after reading the entire series and reflecting back that I did very much enjoy the series as a whole but this book in itself was a hard read due to scenes in the book that could also be big triggers for some readers.

4 Stars.

Nope.

I have this book as much time as I could. But I draw the line at him beating her unconscious and her “forgiving” him. If the premise was to have her bludgeon him in his sleep, I could stick around, but the story isn’t heading that way.
He kidnaped her, rapes her regularly, beats her and berates her. This is absolutely not a book I want to be reading.

So bad

How can you root for a main character when they are so unlikable.
Spoiler
He kidnaps her, beats her and then gives her a choice to leave him or marry him. She marries him because she finds him attractive. Errrrgggg.
Then it gets boring. Really boring. It’s about her shopping and money and all the bs boring stuff for hours. Most of the book in fact. Soooo boring.
Can’t root for her because she is stupid and uninteresting.
