Our families made the arrangement. He made me his.

When I first screamed his name in shameful surrender, Sevastian Kozlov was the enemy, the heir of a rival family who had just finished spanking me into submission after I dared to defy him.

Though he’d already claimed my body by the time he claimed me as his bride, no matter how desperately I long for his touch I vowed this beautiful sinner would never conquer my heart.

But it wasn’t up to me…

This was a great read. The story was a nice complex mystery/action piece and steamy romance. I liked the female main character for a change - she was smart, gutsy, quick, and not so hung up on her "la famiglia" that she was blind to facts. The male hottie was also likable - he didn't come with too many pieces of emotional baggage like a lot of these other lead males usually do. Both characters were more grounded and able to move on as more info came to light. One Star deducted for bad grammar, wrong word choices, etc. MAN!!! You desperately need a decent editor!!!
