Grandiose gestures, insatiable infatuation, and an addiction to affluence that knows no bounds... What a tantalizing trio and titillating turn of events!

I am not really into reading violence but this book sounds informative about the real scenarios in romance. Nice review.

I have never read a book like this, and I'm not sure that I want to after reading your review. It has nothing against the author, but I'm not sure I want to jump headfirst into a book in which I know abuse will be a large part of the relationship. While the dark aspect is certainly the reality for many unhappy men and women around the world, I prefer reading about healthier relationships. Thank you for your review!

Interesting review but I have to say that it does not appeal to the true romantic in me. The immediate diving into the erotic scenes was a bit off-putting. When I read a romantic novel I prefer to lose myself in the book/characters and wait for the happy ending: love! But I have to add: I do love the author's writing style - seeing things from both character's perspectives is really refreshing.

I am not a fan of romance novels, so I will pass on this one. I hope others enjoy what sounds like an exciting story! Great review!

A dark romance tinged with intrigue - this novel seems to be worth a read. I look forward to reading the full novel.

Alexandra seems too naive for my taste. I'm sure other readers would enjoy it though. Thank you for your honest review!

This is a true tale of a master Casanova. They go for what they want. However, there's always a woman that becomes a real pain. Looks like something to check out.

Hm, I don't remember the last time I read a dark romance novel, and this one sounds enticing! A powerful man with a sex addiction trying to lure in a young woman at the office makes for an interesting plot. I agree with others that I hope the misogyny is addressed. Thanks for a thoughtful review!

The storyline is great. However, this sounds like an erotica. I think I'll pass on this one.

I don't think I'm part of the target audience of this book. I like romances, but I think Patrick Harrington's behavior will bother me so I'll skip it. Amazing review! Thank you, Stephanie!
