I found this book very much at random.  Another blog posted how amazing it was, and I thought I'd give it a try. Very glad I did.  This book pretty much took over my life until I finished it (which was a little over a day).Elyssa Hart is emotionally closed off from everyone except her sister.  She lost both her parents, and one night of bad judgment in college scarred her enough to only keep one friend - the loyal and very annoyingly frustrating ex boyfriend Cole.  She starts a new job as a sales executive. and like everyone else, she notices the very hot and oddly young for a Senior VP, Alexander James.This part of the story may be a little familiar, but what affected me most was how you felt a real connection between Alex and Elyssa.  Alex is still hiding something, as is Elyssa, but they open up and really let each other in.  The Alex he showed Alyssa was very different than the moody executive he chose to show others. Still demanding and possessive like your typical alpha, but burned and scared like a child.  You can't help but love Alex, even through his jealous mood swings.  I really liked Elyssa too, but I grew frustrated at her for not sending an obviously pining-for-her Cole away long ago.  Cole made me uneasy - his love for Elyssa obviously a ticking time bomb that will cost her later on.Then something happens that you kind of see coming but really not at all, turning everything upside down. You really have no idea what will happen at this point because the game has completely changed for everyone involved. It doesn't end on a cliffhanger, but nothing is resolved.  It will leave you as a reader like me, anxiously awaiting book #2, Shattered Heart.
