While studying abroad in Norway for a semester, Vail
witnesses a murder. Alreck whisks her away, without her consent, and takes her
to his cabin in Northern Norway. She’s strangely attracted to him even though
he holds her against her will. He’s mysterious, he dangerous, and he’s HOT!
Vail has no clue why Alreck has kidnapped her. He won’t tell
her. He just keeps her captive. Vail tries to escape. It almost takes her life
when she fails. After Alreck catches her, he saves her life and keeps her
captive.
I enjoyed this story immensely. Christine Edwards writes
characters you love. You may want to smack them sometimes for doing stupid
stuff, but you still love them. I mean afterall, we all want to smack the ones
we love from time to time!
Vail frustrated me a bit. I figured out early on why Alreck
took her. I couldn’t see why she didn’t figure it out. But then, I’ve never
been in her situation, so I may not have figured it out either. It’s easier
when you’re on the outside looking in.
Alreck is the original bad boy. He’s hot, mysterious and
while he gives off the bad boy vibe, he’s really quite nice. Just don’t tell
him I said so! Alreck would do anything for Vail and he does!
One of the things I really liked about this story was the
HEA. It wasn’t an automatic HEA. There was some time and space between Vail and
Alreck before they got their HEA. I also like that Vail wasn’t the one that had
to give things up to get Alreck. He came after her. A bad boy knight in
tarnished armor!
I’m really liking this series. I’m actually not sure it is a
series, but it seems like it. None of the stories are related to each other.
They just have a central theme running through them! Christine Edwars has
managed to make kidnapping HOT!
