I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review.  I rated it 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.Reviewed for For Whom The Books Toll4  , ScorchingTabitha Quinn's Hawaii vacation was anything but ordinary. Dominant billionaire Marcus Granger saved her life, swept her into his bed, and then left her heartbroken. Now she's back in New York, mourning the man she's sure she'll never see again.Marcus may have left handprints on her skin, but Tabitha's left handprints on his heart: he tracks her down, and they resume the sizzling affair they began in the islands.Tabitha belongs to Marcus body and soul in bed, but she worries she doesn't belong in his high-stakes world. They've already dodged a murder attempt, and now Marcus is fighting off a competitor's takeover. When the rival company obtains critical information, suspicion falls on Tabitha. She has to prove she's innocent--and worthy to wear Marcus's collar.My review:Tabitha is back at work and the one thing on her mind is, what the heck happened? She knows Marcus had a crisis and had to return home quickly, the problem is he hasn't made any effort in the two weeks since Hawaii to contact Tabitha. She just wants to get on things and forget about those nights full of steamy hot sex with Marcus and how he made her feel.Tabitha's insecurities keep creeping back into her mind when she lets herself think of her time with Marcus.Marcus has been swamped at his family's company, Granger Pharma with trying to stop a hostile takeover by a competitor. He hasn't forgotten about Tabitha, there just isn't time to spare. I believe that Marcus has every intention of getting back with Tabitha as soon as things calm down at his company. I'm so in love with Marcus, he's clever, inventive, mysterious, and one heck of a lover.  He has all the qualities that make a man great. Marcus' character did some growing in this book.Tabitha has convinced herself that Marcus lives the high society life and she doesn't fit in.This is a big obstacle she has to get over to make her relationship with Marcus work. Tabitha has a lot of good qualities, she works hard, she's friendly and smart. She's also willing to try new things with Marcus.There's a lot of sexual tension between the two throughout the book. Ms. Mallory definitely knows how to create characters with depth and dimension and seem like they are capable of walking right off the pages. The clever plots in the books are awesome and grab the reader's attention almost immediately.There is danger and excitement galore in His Desire, Her Surrender. Marcus almost gets hit by a car, company secrets get out,  and Marcus believes Tabitha has leaked some of those secrets to his sister, Monica.  I totally understand Marcus' anger, however I felt he was also very stubborn when he wouldn't let Tabitha explain. I so wanted Marcus and Tabitha to be together and be happy. I thought Tabitha forgave Marcus too quick. I liked how she wanted to fight for them, I think Marcus should have have been apologetic.Ms. Mallory has written another spell binding book that is fast paced and has the reader on the edge of their seat waiting to see what happens next. His Desire, Her Surrender will leave you breathless and wanting more.
