I liked this book even more than the first. It was about twice as long and sucked me in right away as it picked up where the first book left off. I find this series to be addictive as it captures the essence of a powerful billionaire who gets what he wants when he wants it. I feel the back and forth, push and pull of emotions between both Elijah and Natalie. Elijah can't figure out what makes Natalie so irresistible. He simply can't get enough of her. They don't understand each others worlds yet, but with each day that passes, they both find themselves making sacrifices for the other.Little by little, I feel EJ becoming more human and less cold. He has moments where he seems to truly care about Natalie beyond the deal they have going. Right when I feel this, something in the plots rips the thought from my head as I realize they still have a very long way to go if they ever want more from this arrangement. At times I feel sorry for Natalie and wish she would speak her mind. Other times, I remember why she is in the arrangement in the first place, and it all makes sense. As hard as she is trying to keep her emotions in check, she is failing. I feel her falling more for EJ everyday.Both characters have very calculating personalities that are still human even if they feel very methodical. I know the story is going to take yet another turn before it finishes. I look forward to reading book three as soon as it is available. These stories are sexy and downright HOT! You will want ice cream with all the toppings once you finish this book!
