Sweet, sexy, no surprises...

I love the crazy insta-love stories written by the two women authors known as Alexa Riley. All of us fans were anxiously waiting their first full length novel. I pre-ordered this yesterday and then waited for the book to appear on my Kindle. I have no idea why it downloaded at 9:30 PM on December 26. (I know that when I pre-order Kindle books, they usually appear the night before their release date, I figure it's midnight on the east coast and the next day.) Of course, that meant that even though I was exhausted from Christmas partying, I had to stay up all night and read the book.
It's good. Miles has waited years to claim the object of his obsession: Mallory. He's manipulated her life so that her path will lead to him. Of course, all that blows up in his face. But, this is Alexa Riley, so there will be lots of hot sex and an HEA. And it's clear from the beginning of the story that the secondary characters, Paige and Ryan will have their own book too.
Unfortunately, this book didn't knock my socks off. I guess I expected a little more conflict or just... something, instead of the foregone conclusion. Mostly, it's just sweet, it's sexy, it's Christian Grey obsessed billionaire without the BDSM. In fact, there's really no dark places here except the back story on Miles' father, which is thinly sketched and easily resolved for Miles.
So it was enjoyable and I'll never regret the dark circles under my eyes when it comes to Alexa Riley and since I'm still on vacation, I can always take a nap. Ha!
P.S. I have to mention one flaw that drove me crazy. I realize this is the fantasy world of erotic romance, but just in the first few pages, it drove me nuts that Mallory gets an outside scholarship from Oswald's company to pay for Yale. In fact, this is a major plot point that she "got a free ride" to Yale because of this scholarship. She is a poor foster care kid and this was supposed to be the only way she could attend Yale. This is just wrong. It's common knowledge that the Ivies are free to any talented student who is admitted, but does not have the income to pay the tuition. In the case of Yale, families that make less than $65,000 a year are not obligated to pay anything. For a foster care kid with the talent to be admitted to Yale, her tuition costs would be covered by the college and they would also pay her room and board. She would not have needed Oswald's scholarship. It wouldn't take much research to discover this - really two clicks to Yale's financial aid page. But, this has also been in the news a lot in the last decade as more colleges beyond the Ivies have adopted this policy, including Stanford.

Fantastic! Couldn't put it down!

Merry Christmas to me! To all of us! Finally a longer book! I just can't get enough of Alexa Riley's writing! I laughed. I smiled. I cried. I was grinning from ear to year while hanging on to every word!
Miles "Oz" Osbourn is a ruthless & powerful billionaire that never takes no for an answer. He knew from the first time he laid eyes on Mallory Sullivan that she would be his. She is his obsession. He rearranged his whole life and hers so when the time was right it led straight to him.
Mallory being raised in foster care has spent her whole life depending on no one but herself, until she got to college and met her best friend Paige. She has put everything she has into her career. Being a success and making it on her own. Just as everything is looking up she is caught in a whirlwind and his name is Oz.
Mallory could only ever dream of the passion and longing Oz brings out in her. Deep down she even craves his dark obsession but his secrets may end up being her downfall.
HEA, Safe No cheating just the way I like it!
Counting down the days until Paige's book!!

everything and more

If you've ever read an Alexa Riley book than you know to expect instant love, hot steamy romance, swoon worthy characters and an HEA. Well, i can tell you that this book not only delivers but there's a whole lot more of it because its a full length novel! so be prepared to be doubly impressed!

sometimes all it takes is a glimpse or just being in the same room with a person to help you see what you want. it's an instant connection that helps you see that you will do everything in your power to find your way to this person or make it so they find their way to you. sometimes it happens quickly while other times you may have to wait just a little longer. this is certainly the case for oz.
he knew the first time he saw Mallory that she was different, there was something about her that he had to have. even if means waiting for just the right moment.
time will make you do crazy things, but to oz it all seems right because he is caring and guarding the woman who means the world to him. he just needs her to see that everything he does is for the right reason.

Mallory has worked hard for everything that she has. coming from a foster family she knows that she has to push herself just a little more than others. her hard works seems to be paying off with a scholarship to Yale and now an internship at one of the most sought after companies she can't help but feel like she is on her way. things are falling perfectly into place. with her best friend by her side, she is ready to start this new adventure. but how is she going to handle a tall dark mystery man?
she is a little inexperienced since he focused on nothing but school but within a few days she seems to be captured in his web. she's flattered by all of the attention that he shows her, surely this can't be real life. slowly she feels herself falling for the mystery man known as oz, but one little moment can change everything.
one moment she is falling head over heels and the next she is questioning everything she thought she knew. what's true and what's an illusion?

Oz knew his plan was to lead Mallory to him but he didn’t expect this little bump in the road. winning her back is going to his goal and making her see what he did was entirely for love.

these two are by far my favorites. their chemistry is intense.
one of the best alexa riley books that I have read! it's everything and more! this takes their books to a whole new level!
must read book!

It's an OKAY book, not great.

The story was okay and had a lot of potential, but very unrealistic at some points. The story also seemed rush towards the end. Like 50 shades of Grey this book also has them get married within a month. Mallory has known Oz for like a total of 5 days and she already misses him when he goes on a work trip? She's already getting jealous when she hears another woman in the background when she calls him? That is all very unrealistic to me. I understand where Oz is coming from since he's been in love with Mallory for years, so I understand his obsessiveness, but Mallory just met the guy. I think it would have been better if she would have put a harder fight. If it would have taken longer for her to fall in love with him. Aside from that it's an okay book.

Getting the Girl

This definitely was a new experience to the way an Alpha man goes about getting his girl.

I absolutely adore the charecters in this book and it was definitely a wild ride throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed all the twists and turns.

I would highly recommend this book and author to anyone who loves a bit of a twisted love story that is all kinds of sweet and romantic as at the end of the day Mr Alpha only had the best of intentions.

Happy reading and I hope you have an amazing time reading this like I did.

Loved it!

I loved this book. I love everything Alexa Riley but this book takes the cake. Miles has had his eyes set on Mallory since she was young and everything he has done over the years was in order to bring her towards him. Mallory doesn't know about any of Miles' plans for her or how he has been the one to help her out throughout her college years. I love how Miles was so in love with her he would do anything for her without even meeting her. This book was totally worth the wait. I can't wait until Paige and Captain's story comes out.
