Nurse Sara Peters is baffled how a well-known, extremely attractive billionaire Trenton Merrick ends up in their ER with a forehead injury. What bothers her even more is his persistence that she be the one that attends to him. As she is examining his injury, sparks fly and she finds herself doing the unthinkable. She just can't resist this seductive man and agrees to go out with him the next night. Her inquisitive nature just won't let her say "no".As she gets to know him better her life starts spiraling out of control. Just when she thought she could pin all the blame on Trenton for her situation, she finds that everything is not as it seems...it is so much worse than it could possibly be._____________________At first I thought this story read so similar to Fifty Shades because of its mercurial, egotistic and overprotective billionaire - come to find out that the billionaire part is the only thing it has in common. I just about put it down for that reason then it suddenly morphed into something more.I loved Sara's character in this book. For a twenty-two year old, I thought she was very mature for her age. She was intelligent and smart, sassy and cool, outspoken and very strong-willed. You would think that with the enigma of a man such as Trenton would deter her from making her own decisions but nope she didn't allow him to influence her. No matter how seductive he was she knew when to put her foot down.It was difficult to understand Trenton in the beginning. He was quite the mystery. Once you unravel the secrets in this story you can not help but adore this man. I loved him for his selflessness, his compassion and how he used his resources to fight for what he thought was right. Yes he was overbearing when it came to Sara's safety but it was totally justifiable given her situation.The supporting characters made such a good impression as well. Loved how her friends were protective of Sara's well-being and how they never hesitated to offer help in those tough times even when their life too could be at risk. I found that the connections they made later on was amusing and entertaining and I can't wait to see what is in store for them.I appreciated how it didn't focus on the couples' physical aspects of a relationship rather it leaned towards building more of a long and lasting one . I loved the thrill and the suspense. There were so many twists and turns in this story that just made my mouth drop open and I was finding myself repeatedly asking "What the hell just happened?" A+ for unpredictability. Enjoyed it. Excited to read more.liezelsbookblog.net
