Pandora Garret has been a prisoner her whole life. Daughter to a crime lord, she’s never anything beyond the world her father controls. But she’s had enough. Escaping into the night, grasping her first taste of freedom. Jax Morrow is the CEO of one of New York’s most successful companies. His life is all about control and ensuring that he never loses it. But when Pandora walks into that bar, that night. His grip begins to slip. One night was all it was supposed to be...I enjoy these little novellas that get right to the point and the quick of the story. There was a few times when things felt a little repetitive, which with a novella can often times just seem to take up space, especially since the timeline to create a full story is so limited.I liked the concept of this story. Mob daughter meets powerful CEO that tries to harness his more wild side. The one thing that I enjoyed I think the most, which is normally not the case with other books was the inner thoughts. Both Pandora and Jax had an inner struggle with how they felt and what they were too afraid to admit. There was a lot of these little one line arguments and aha moments that took place within the character’s head.It was a quick little guilty pleasure read that was enjoyed. I’ve never read anything by this particular author before and have a few of her other books on standby. I am interested to see what she can do with a full length story.
