3.5 stars. A wild, orgasmic Harley ride with heart and lots
of whiskey and vodka.
The fiery, independent Alexandra meets her match in the hunky,
stoic Russia Dmitri. This book is part of a series, but I didn’t feel like I
was missing anything. This is a separate erotica/romance between these two
characters.
Alexandra is a brilliant businesswoman by day and wild biker
queen on the weekend. Dmitri is hired to rein her in but finds himself drawn to
the brazen red-haired female.
This is more than just an erotica story. Alex comes to terms
with her need to never be controlled by a man, something that haunts her after
her father left her mother. She puts on a tough act, and Dmitri refuses to put
up with her screwing around, a character trait I liked about him.
At times Alex came off a little too intense and annoying
with her “I am a woman, and I can screw any man I want” attitude, but I understood
why she acted this way.
I enjoyed this story. I love strong female leads. However, I
wanted to see more depth. The plot was predictable and considering Alexander’s strong
stance against being tied down to one man, she seemed to give in too quickly to
Dmitri. I expected her to fight this more. Dmitri was still a mystery to me at
the end, and I wanted to know more about his KGB past. Also, I wanted to know
more about this world of corporate power and biker gangs led by a female. Of
course, these are my expectations. Most erotica fans will probably be satisfied
with all the hot sex, and the author did not disappoint in that area. Overall,
this was a good story.

Thanks for such a comprehensive, good review. It's so refreshing to actually get a review from a reader who won a free book! And yes, Alexandra is kind of annoying a lot--but when you learn her back-story, it helps you to understand her. I don't think even she will ever learn about Dmitri's past. He prefers to live in the "now." Good advice for someone who has what he probably does on his conscience. LOL.
