Book description
He can’t control his desire. Luc Traverson’s entire future is planned out—but there is one very sexy obstacle in his path: Alyssa Devereaux . She’s a former exotic dancer turned strip club owner and restaurateur. Recently, Alyssa and Luc shared one night of wild abandon that left Luc terrified by his loss of self-control—and Alyssa desperate for more.
And that’s just the way she wants it.
Fulfilling a promise, Luc is the guest chef for Alyssa’s restaurant debut. The sight of her makes Luc wild, so how can he survive a week without letting loose and ravaging her—especially when she’s begging for it? Luc’s desire for her explodes when he realizes he isn’t the only man desperate to have her. But one of the others is deadly. And that’s not the end of Alyssa’s secrets…which are as dark and mysterious and enticing as her fantasies.

Rating-

This is a book your either going to love or hate. The biggest reason is because of Luc. He seems to be a butt to some that reads this book, but I looked at what was happening between both Luc and Alyssa and she did cause Luc to be a butt a lot. so here is what I thought of this book.
If your one that likes a love, hate, on again off again relationship, with suspense this could be for you. To tell you the truth, I don’t normally get into these love hate relationship, but this one I couldn’t put it down. The thing that kept me going was it was so full of emotions. At times I couldn’t stand either one Luc or Alyssa then at times I really liked them. This is how it would go, as soon as they were able to stand each other and everything looking good then Luc with his jealousy would tare them apart. Then there were times when everything was good between them and Alyssa would share her past life with Luc all you could do is cry because it was so sad. It is a roller coaster between the two that for sure.
The whole time all of this on again and off again is going on, some men are after Alyssa and she is stalked, house and work broke into and hate messages left for her and almost raped this was a roller coaster itself trying to figure out who and why they were doing it. You also get to see characters form the first two books as they join in to help.
Just a word of caution here, Luc at one point gets a little to rough with Alyssa she keeps telling him no and he doesn’t get the picture he is so tied up into the jealousy about Tyler he thinks sex is the only way to stop her for seeing Tyler, but he never rapes her, after this happens Alyssa shares with Luc what happened to her at fifteen years of age.
Here is more with Spoilers!
Alyssa set the stage up to win back Luc. So what she does is has him come to be a guest chef for the week at her new restaurant, she even pays the hotel guy off so Luc doesn’t have a room just so he can stay at her house, you know what she has planned. In the mean time Luc has a secret, he can’t have kids, so when he agrees to stay with Alyssa he has unprotected sex and guess what? she becomes Prego. In between him accusing her of seeing Tyler her bodyguard, which I have to say she should have picked him and got all of this on again and off again jealousy thing done with Luc, but she knows who the kid belongs to and is in love with, so she wont do that. Alyssa is no whore even though Luc keeps pretty much telling her she is. But what you also have to look at is Alyssa is a strip club owner/operator, so you know what is put in our minds even thou Alyssa isn’t sleeping around it still there and this is why Luc keeps it on his mind that she is sleeping with Tyler plus a few other things she dose with Tyler.
(I’m fast forward a bit here) As time goes on and Alyssa ends up in the hospital Kimberly tells Alyssa Luc secret that he can’t have kids, while she is telling her this Alyssa really feels betrayed and again she kicks Luc out of this house! You have to be in the right mood to read this book.
Its best to read this series in order.
