Natalie Porter has been searching for her biological
parents, and just when she finally has hope, her contact
disappears. She is a grad student and one of her hobbies is
what she calls manalyst; she tells all her friends
what a man is like just from looking at him. Until a tall
stranger wanders in the bar and she gets nothing...
intrigued she offers to buy him a drink but gets snubbed.
More embarrassed than anything...well she is still turned on
...she goes home. Within moments he's there with a story; he
is her bodyguard sent by her wealthy Russian father who has
mafiya ties, and she needs to pack a bag because bad guys
know where she is.
Aleksei "The Siberian" Sevastyan's loyalty has always been
to Pavel Kovalev and having been sent to watch over his
long lost daughter is just another job. The enforcer had
never imagined the young woman would be spirited and
beautiful. Now others who are not so friendly know of her
existence, and he has to get her to Russia. If he has to
kidnap her in just her robe and nothing else so be it.
Neither expects the sexual sparks to fly so quickly, nor
does he expect the little virgin to be so amenable to his
sexual darkness. She might be forbidden fruit in his eyes,
but she knows what she wants and Sevastyan is it. But is
it possible to keep him?
THE PROFESSIONAL is an action filled erotica with a number
of twists and turns that only author Kresley Cole can
provide. She takes you into a number of different
countries...from Nebraska to Russia, to Paris to places
where bullets fly and darker sexual needs exist. The book,
for me, started out like gangbusters, with Natalie a tough
cookie who doesn't just follow along where Sevastyan leads,
but somewhere along the storyline, she fell too much under
his erotic choice spell and lost herself. I also wish she
had more time with her father, getting to know more of her
heritage, because that is after all why she was seeking her
biological parents. Don't get me wrong I did enjoy this
book, though I am not into BDSM, so be warned that is
Sevanstyan's world. The emotional ride that both Natalie
and Sevastyan find themselves on and the pressure for him
to open up took a long time coming and might have been
easier in little bits at a time instead of one long
narrative. I am glad I waited for all three parts in one,
because despite all my feelings on what might be considered
drawbacks for me, I still would have been waiting for the
next installment of THE PROFESSIONAL to find out what
happens to this couple.
