Working as an ad exec and learning someone has stolen her
designs,
Melanie Cai is confronting her boss to take back her
deserved credit. Her
friend Shana has been right behind her, pushing her to the
confrontation.
Her plan was to help build up Johnson Ltd.'s standing in
the marketplace
while exposing Neyland for stomping on the little guy.
Billionaire Ryder Neyland (and 11th most eligible bachelor
in the US) sets
his sights to take down the pleasingly plumb female
designer who cost
him several million. Having no regard for women, Ryder has
a history of
using them for his purposes and then discarding them with
an expensive
kiss-off piece of jewelry. Melanie, half black and half
chinese, is not
normally the kind of woman that appeals to him and his
first black woman
to bed. He is drawn to her mouth and her large breasts as
he's all about
sex. Thus starts his pursuit ending the first liaison
with hot, erotic sex.
Melanie isn't what he expects though, as she doesn't bend
to his every
demand nor fall for his macho control. The more she seems
to pull away,
the more he is fascinated with her. By now she is head
over heels in love
with Ryder, but in no way letting him know.
I have never read any of the works from this author but
found it different
than most of my other reads. The story had a cute plot
started for a short
story and the characters were interesting, but I
personally felt that the
majority of the tale was all erotic and graphic sex while
the story itself
lacked complete story. I know it is hard in a short story
to include a lot,
but I was hoping for more story and not all sexual
graphics. I did
especially like Melanie's character as she portrayed a
woman very
confident and comfortable in her own skin.
He wanted to teach her a lesson but he’s about to get
schooled.
Ryder Neyland grew up immersed in the cutthroat world of
million-dollar deals. From his father’s CEO friends, he
learned how to handle people and money, and quickly
learned
rule number one: never allow anyone to cross him without
retribution.
When he learns the identity of a small-time ad exec who
masterminded the advertisement that not only cost him
millions of dollars, but made him look like a corporate
bully, he sets out to put the woman in her place.
Melanie Cai is ecstatic when, for once, her boss gives her
full credit for the campaign she hopes will launch her
career. Which makes it all the more intriguing when Ryder
begins seducing her in a decidedly non-gourmet diner,
apparently thinking she doesn’t recognize him. He’s sexy.
She’s tempted. Why not play along?
It isn’t long before Ryder’s plan for revenge starts
running
off the rails. Melanie may have killer curves, but she
doesn’t easily bend to his manipulations. And soon she has
him not only rethinking his world view, but also his
future.
Warning: Contains a high-powered executive who isn’t used
to
hearing “no”, and a half African-American, half Chinese ad
exec who knows her place—and it ain’t under his thumb.
Unless that thumb is right where she wants it…
