Cole Barrington, a sexy
dominant and a movie producer with a reputation as a player, has been haunted
by one particular young lady who unexpectedly tugged his heart strings during a
five-day romp on a tropical island. Why she ducked his calls on their return he
has no idea, and the question still shadows him.

Thrown together on a
tiny seaplane, as they fly to the private island where the event is to be held,
fate throws them an unexpected curve ball. Forced to land near a tiny
uninhabited island, they suddenly find themselves completely stranded and
alone. Their intense attraction soon fires their passion, and when they’re drawn into a wild treasure hunt, Cole must
use his dominant skill to control the impetuous woman from the perils
surrounding them.
The
unexpected reminder of his hard hand slapping her naked backside sent an
immediate flush to her cheeks,
“Well I wasn’t going to do
nothing,” she
retorted in spite of the heat flaming over her face, and the queasy feeling in
her stomach as she remembered how it had felt to hit the skinny young man with
her crude club. “He
was-“
“He was harmless.”
“Harmless? He had a fucking gun!”
“Holly, when you’re dealing with
someone who is holding a gun, three words should always spring to mind.”
“Disarm the bastard!”
“No! Proceed with caution,” he said firmly, fixing her gaze. “I know you heard me talking to him.
Wasn’t it obvious I
was dealing with the situation? Did you not see me jerk my head to the side?”
“Yes, but I didn’t know what
that meant, and then you smiled.”
“I had to smile. I had to change
tactics, and whacking him like that could have caused him to pull the trigger.”
“Stop scolding me like a child! I was
only trying to help! I was trying to save you! And I did!”
“And we had an agreement. No action
without talking about it.”
“Talking? How could we talk? What was I
supposed to do, walk up and say, excuse me man-with-a-gun, but I need to
discuss battering you on the head with this piece of wood, so would you please
step aside for a minute?”
Cole
tiled his head to the side as he studied her. She was righteously indignant,
and completely missing the point.
“Let me put this another way,” he said patiently. “All I want you to do is think things
through. Take a minute to assess the situation. Weigh what’s going on and
the possible consequences before you act.”
Books On Fire Tours ~ I've never read any of Maggie Carpenter's books, but now that I've read this one, I will read her grocery list!
Take a reluctant submissive stranded on an island with a gorgeous, rich and powerful dom, throw in a treasure hunt and some bad guys, and you have a recipe for success. Sign me up! I loved this book from start to finish, because it kept the familiar aspects found in all BDSM erotica books, but it was presented in a whole new way. I give this book 5 stars!
