On a desperate mission, NSA agent Joaquin Munoz is
searching for a little girl who vanished more than 20
years
ago. Her dangerous secret could be the downfall for both
of
them. When he finds the woman who fits the profile, he
decides this beauty is HIS TO TAKE.
Bailey Benson is terrified to find herself kidnapped and
whisked off to the safety of Club Dominion ... a BDSM club
of
all places. At first terrified but when her captor demands
information on her past she is stunned.
Is it possible that those distant memories and horrible
nightmares are real? What is real anymore? Confined to a
place that echoes and breathes passion, Joaquin is proving
to be not only a strong protector but also a sensual
Master. Is this man what was missing from her life? But
Joaquin has secrets of his own ... as well as fears that
could break her into more pieces. That is if he can even
keep them both alive.
HIS TO TAKE is the hot, edgy, intense continuation of
author Shayla Black's Wicked Lover series. The
dynamic of
Bailey (who has a fear of desertion) and Joaquin (who has
closed himself off) is fascinating to watch as they grow
closer despite the fears. Though I have to admit there
were
a couple of times I was yelling at him, but that aside,
they do fit together very well. Past characters from the
series are there of course, helping with the investigation
and giving advice, sometimes not well received or asked
for
but given nonetheless. Ms. Black offers an interesting and
creative dynamic through family and friends that will keep
you reading and wanting more.
Some of the heart pounding has little to do with the
mystery they are all desperately working to solve. As with
all this series this book has quite a bit of BDSM, either
physical or verbal, involved. So if that bothers you this
might not be the book for you. But if you are looking for
a
story of a couple with fears, regrets, who find themselves
holding on to each other in the midst of danger and
leading
to a HEA then HIS TO TAKE is one you want to pick up.
New York Times bestselling author Shayla Black invites
readers to explore the
desires of her Wicked Lovers...
Racing against time, NSA agent Joaquin Muñoz is searching
for a little girl who
vanished twenty years ago with a dangerous secret. Since
Bailey Benson fits the
profile, Joaquin abducts the beauty and whisks her to the
safety of Club
Dominion--before anyone can silence her for good.
At first, Bailey is terrified, but when her kidnapper
demands information about
her past, she's stunned. Are her horrific visions actually
distant memories that
imperil all she holds dear? Confined with Joaquin in a
place that echoes with
moans and breathes passion, he proves himself a fierce
protector as well as a
sensual Master who's slowly crawling deeper into her
head...and her heart. But
giving in to him might be the most delicious danger of
all.
Because Bailey soon learns that her past isn't the only
mystery. Joaquin has a
secret of his own--a burning vengeance in his soul. The
exposed truth leaves her
vulnerable and wondering how much about the man she loves
is a lie, how much
more is at risk than her heart. And if she can trust him
to protect her long
enough to learn the truth.
