Violet is the perfect daughter: ambitious, but obedient,
charming, but doesn't party like her sister, Lily, and in
a
relationship with the ideal man...minus his infidelity.
After
Violet's boyfriend makes it clear he prefers his job to
her,
she has finally decided to make a move for herself and
leave
him. Meanwhile, sexy and mysterious Ryder has had his eye
on
her, and he knows it's time to make a calculated move.
Soon,
they realize they are in over their head, but now they
can't
let go.
OWNING VIOLET by Monica Murphy contains everything one
hopes
for in a romance novel: passion, emotional intensity,
brilliant dialogue, and sexy scenes galore. As each
chapter
passes by, the reader is pulled further into a world where
intense and complicated love collides with business,
corruption, and family expectations. Throughout the whole
novel, an unsuspecting sense of urgency lines each plot
point, making this one of the hardest romance novels to
try
to put down.
Violet, a strong young woman who has played by someone
else's rules for so long, meets her match with Ryder, who
has satisfied himself for so long that he forgot others
could be kind and sincere. Their spark absolutely sizzles
between pages of expertly executed scenes of internal and
external conflict, renewed strength, dark pasts, and the
mesmerizing nature of love that demands all vulnerability.
OWNING VIOLET left me in a ball of overwhelming emotion
for
characters that I expected to spend several days with but
instead whose company I consumed in one evening. Monica
Murphy's talent for a complex relationship composed of two
individuals whose walls are starting to crack in the best
is
absolutely superb. Fans of Tessa Bailey and Maya Banks are
sure to find another immediate-buy series with this one.
New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy begins a
sexy new contemporary romance series—perfect for fans of
Christina Lauren and Emma Chase—that introduces three
sisters born to wealth, raised to succeed, ready to love,
destined to make waves.
I’ve moved through life doing what’s expected of me. I’m
the
middle daughter, the dutiful daughter. The one who braved
a
vicious attack and survived. The one who devoted herself
to
her family’s business empire. The one who met an ambitious
man and fell in love. We were going to run Fleur Cosmetics
together, Zachary and I.
Until he got a promotion and left me in the dust. Maybe
it’s
for the best, between his disloyalty and his wandering
eye.
But another man was waiting for me. Wanting me. He too has
an overwhelming thirst for success, just like
Zachary—perhaps even more so. He’s also ruthless. And
mysterious. I know nothing about Ryder McKay beyond that
he
makes me feel things I’ve never felt before.
One stolen moment, a kiss, a touch . . . and I’m hooked.
Ryder’s like a powerful drug, and I’m an addict who
doesn’t
want to be cured. He tells me his intentions aren’t pure,
and I believe him. For once, I don’t care. I’m willing to
risk everything just to be with him.
