An exciting and captivating alpha read with a twist! I loved it! 5 stars!Exciting and action-packed... this book really surprised me in every way. It had a little bit of everything... drama, suspense, romance, action, mystery, steaminess... I couldn't put it down! And really the story hinges on understanding...Who is Trenton Merrick?That is the big question in this exciting book! I was immediately hooked by Trenton. When he meets Sara, a nurse, he makes it clear that he wants her. I was so taken aback-- in a good way-- at Trenton's possessive, overly-confident, sexy alphaness. It was clear he goes after what he wants... and gets it. And when his sights settled on Sara, the chemistry ignited quickly, explosive sparks flying with just a touch."There's no denying that our physical chemistry is off the charts, but I still refuse to be just another unnamed companion in  a photograph or another notch on his bedpost."But Sara tries to resist despite the intensifying desire. Trenton is wealthy and can have anyone he wants. She, on the other hand, lives paycheck to paycheck, and is focused on keeping her job. But when Trenton persists in his pursuit, her resolve falters."Don't pretend you don't want me, too, Sara. I can see it in the way you look at me... how your body responds to my touch."When Sara spends more time with Trenton, she begins to realize that Trenton is shrouded in mystery. And as she slowly chips away at what seems to be a facade, she realizes there is so much more to him than she thought.Who is the real Trenton Merrick?Trenton is starting to get to her -- heart and soul -- and not just with the physical connection, but with the goodness of his heart."The connection I feel with Trenton is unlike anything I've ever felt toward anyone, unlike anything I thought possible. It's the only time that my world slows and I feel suspended, feature light. When I wrap my arms around him, I tremble. When we kiss, we explore like it's the first time we kissed anyone."Trenton is also changing as a result of what he feels for Sara, and he finds himself opening up to her."I thought that's what happiness was--the solitude, the quiet--but now that you're here, Sara, I'm not so sure anymore."And then, the story suddenly shifts into so much more. As secrets gets revealed and hidden connections emerge, the story grips you even more with big-time action and suspense. It was a really original twist on the story I thought I was reading, becoming one that was so much more riveting and original.The story is captivating, incredibly seductive and exciting. And I just loved our sexy alpha, Trenton Merrick! The book doesn't end on a cliffhanger, but leaves you wanting more. I can't wait to see what's coming as this is the first book in the series.
