Stranded Temptation

Milly Taiden — 2018

Kara is ready to kill her boss, Max. She also wants him so badly it's making her nuts. He's a workaholic, and finds ways to keep her on the job late, ruining any love life she could have. Plus, he's never shown the least bit of interest in her and that's how she wants it, right? Maybe. Things change when their plane crashes on their way to a meeting, leaving them stranded on a deserted island. Kara decides to start taking what she wants in life. Max. Max has wanted Kara since he hired her. He's seen her anger at him for keeping her close and knows she hates his guts. So any thought of asking her out or getting intimate is out the window. She'd flat out reject him. He's sure of it. After their crash, Max decides he's tired of hiding his desires. Their passions ignite on the virgin sands, burning hot. Oh, so hot. Discovering an international drug operation on the other side of the island, Max and Kara become targets of a cartel that wants their secret location kept secret. And dead men don't talk. After being rescued and back in the States, an attempt is made on Kara's life, nearly killing her. Max thinks the cartel has found them but soon figures out the danger is much closer to home than anyone could've ever suspected.

I am not a lover of the whole "billionaire" trope but when it's written by Milly Taiden, well I had to give it a try! I was not disappointed. Th same heat as her PNR titles, with action/adventure and some very Alpha moments from Max! Kara is a workaholic. Not through choice- she just doesn't get much say in the matter when her boss Max works just as hard. However she finally has a holiday with her bestie to celebrate a milestone birthday. But Max sticks a spanner in the works and now she has to go to South America with him. She is not a happy bunny...and extended time with Max will send her poor, neglected libido into overdrive, along with her dreams of his sexy self! Max knows he is being a total putz by making Kara work on her birthday but he can't stand the thought of her getting down and dirty with another guy, not when he wants her all to himself. But when their plane goes down on a tropical island, far from their intended, planned route, Max Is happy to be stranded with the star of his dreams. Even better...her dad prepared his girl for any situation. No wimpy weepy woman to deal with! Between drug cartels, shady financial business dealings & several attempted assassination plots, Kara and Max relationship has a baptism of fire. If they can survive all this they can survive anything! I luuuurved this story so much! Brian is a real nut and I hope he gets his own story soon!
