Stone

Obsessed Alpha #1

by C.M. Steele

I shouldn’t even look…think it…
I shouldn’t follow her home…
I should walk away…

Demi Sweet’s one of the new interns. She’s here to learn about marketing and get hands-on experience with our graphic design department. But from the first time I see her, all I want to do is give her some very personal hands-on experience—knowledge only I can provide.

It’s unethical, but she’s an adult, and in a few weeks her internship will be over.

Can I wait that long?

No. I’m too obsessed with her.

This was a great start to a new series. Insta everything with steam and danger.

Demi is getting ready to graduate college and is interning at the very best marketing company in the city. Only she was hoping to learn more than admin work and be a general dogsbody to the CEO’s personal assistant, but working for her is nightmare, she is counting down the weeks to the end that is until she meets Stone and feels things that she has never felt before. All of a sudden she is the centre of his attention and that’s just where she wants to be. But is he really interested in her or is she just another notch on the intern bed post?

Stone has been away on business, but work is his life right now he cannot remember the last time that he was interested in a woman but that all changes when he spots Demi in the lobby of his building, from the second he spots her he knows his life and world are about to change. He will so whatever it takes to make her his. But his assistant seems to be destroy all his chances. Can he convince Demi that what he wants from her is forever not a one night?

Fun, fast and flirty read with a lot of chemistry cant wait for the next book.

"You’ve done something to me, Demi. I’m feeling fucked in the head at the moment and super fucking possessive."

Oh yeah...that is what I'm talking about..right there. C.M. Steele delivers yet another fantastic story. How does she keep doing it? Don't know, don't care. As long as she keeps on feeding this addiction of mine.
-insta-love
-virgin h, celebate H
-no cheating
-no abuse
-some OW drama from H's assistant (not an ex)
-epilogue at 2 months and another at 10 years
Great story. Grab your copy today. If you're a superfan like me, you surely will not be disappointed.

☆1 DNF 57% If a cringe could cringe. Demi Sweet and Stone Harding? Really? Her name will mean “half hard” when they get hitched. See now, if there were some self-conscious humor in this, it could be made campy and fun. Instead, we got this. 💩

[Kayla Brunson · Rating 4 out of 5]

I can honestly see why I've been recommended C.M. Steele's book by other readers. I enjoyed this and couldn't stop reading until the story was over. I have already downloaded the next book in the series because I need more. 💗

This just did not work for me at all, not the hot little morsel I was expecting. Thank hell it was free and I didn't pay for it.

Writing didn't flow, depiction of plot and character interactions just didn't work and had me rolling my eyes a tad.

Freebie on amazon.

"Stone" is the story of Demi and Stone.

A forbidden boss-intern romance with obsession, pursuit, some drama and loads of jealous lovemaking. Ends with detailed epilogue.

Short story, good to kill time.

Great start!

Great start to a new series! Lots of OTT moments. Very hot chemistry between Demi and Stone. Just a smidge of drama thrown in.

[Emily · Rating 4 out of 5]

Demi Sweet is doing the intern job from hell, her supervisor has it out for her and no matter how hard she tries it is never good enough. When the owner of the marketing firm returns to town he sees Demi and knows she is the one for him. However he didn't realize she was an intern in his company and knows he needs to stay away until she has finished her job, but can he?

This was a fun quickie. I liked Stone, he is intense and the chemistry between he and Demi is great. A bit short but you get a whole story.

[Melissa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good

This is a quick, sweet and sexy story! It’s insta love so things move fast. Stone is a workaholic and doesn’t have much of a social life. Once he sees his intern Demi he becomes a man possessed and he will do anything to make her his.
Safety and Spoilers
Completely safe. No om drama, Stone’s assistant causes a good deal of drama for poor Demi. H has been celibate for a long time and h is a virgin. No abuse.

This was okay I guess, made me cringe though with the breeding kink. They've known each other for like 2 days and they're already talking about getting pregnant. Not that I have issues with pregnancy tropes, it was just kinda weird being brought up at the beginning of any romantic relationship. But hey, this is fiction so everything's possible. 🤷‍♀️

This one was fine. Stone is hot and there are definitely some steamy scenes but mostly it felt unbelievable especially with how fast the relationship moved.

[Leslee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Demi never expected to love her internship but she also expected to be learning about graphic design, not be a slave to the boss's personal assistant. She also never expected to be struck with the bolt of attraction for the first time, by the boss no less. There is no way he could possibly be interested in a girl like her. Stone can't believe the woman standing in his office; she is perfection. How can he stand to wait until her internship is over? As soon as possible, she is going to be wearing his ring and carrying his baby...

C.M. Steele knows how to write a slightly stalker alpha male that makes your heart melt! Safe and sweet with sexy times that will have you fanning yourself. Stone is a sweetheart to Demi, I loved him so much. Demi has had a rough time but she doesn't let it keep her from taking a chance on Stone. I can't wait for more of these Obsessed Alphas!

Demi is on her last semester of college and she just has to get through this internship. Only the person she is working under is a living nightmare. 6 weeks.... except at the end of week 1 she meets Stone... the sexy CEO of the company.
Stone has been away on business all week but his work is his life. Stopping by the office when he got back to town, he didn’t realize that his life was going to completely change the moment he spots Demi in the lobby. How is he going to last the term of her internship without claiming her as his? Answer: he’s not.... she will be his no matter what because he’s become completely obsessed.

This is a bit wrong in #metoo time- boss and intern, anyone?
Short, shallow and ridiculous, unless you are desperate for a quick helping of controlling alpha, which I guess we sometimes are- IN A BOOK ONLY, MIND YOU!

I liked the beginning but it just became too unrealistic for my tastes.

[Flavs is Mrs David Gandy♥~♥’ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Oh my word Demi and Stone was off the charts HOT😍
Demi is interning and her superior is making her life hell. It's only the second week and she feels like it's never gonna end. Until she meets the boss. And then her want to run away fro. Work days turn into I can't wait for work days😁 But he's her boss and she can't be feing this way right?
From the moment Stone sees Demi he is an obsessed man. He's obsessed with making her his. He doesn't care if she's the intern or not but no one is going to take his women or make her feel unwanted.

From the stay if this book it was hot and heavy. Stone was a hot sexy alpha male who you can't help but fall in love with. Demi was sweet but had a bit of sass to her as well. Definitely a good start to a new series😍❤️

[Bani Mandira]

Is there already a book about Stone's sister and Grey Masterson?

[Rose · Rating 5 out of 5]

I kind of loved this story. It was short but steamy and over the top! The story was entertaining and enjoyable. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. I'm glad that Stone's assistant got some comeuppance and hopefully some help as well! Demi was sweet but very focused on finishing her college degrees. Having an internship that didn't really help her with her chosen field was kind of a waste, but she is trying to suck it up and just make it through. Stone is a major workaholic. He knows he needs more in his life, but just hasn't gotten around to trying to find it. Stone sees Demi and immediately knows that she is what has been missing from his life. He quickly figures out that she's an intern and that's going to be a problem for him. Demi is also attracted to Stone and she just keeps telling herself that she has to finish the internship so she can graduate. Stone has other ideas. Demi and Stone were wonderful together. They made me smile and cracked me up as well. I loved their interactions. Demi and Stone had an amazing happy ever after. I recommend reading this book.

[Alison · Rating 4 out of 5]

3.5 rounded up to 4 stars.

The best thing about this story is Stone. I loved his instant obsession with Demi. His inner thoughts were the best. If you love an obsessed jealous possessive hero, Stone is for you.

Unfortunately, and I hate to say this, the actual writing isn’t very good. It’s choppy, unrealistic, and poorly constructed. So if you’re bothered by sub-par writing this isn’t the book for you. However, if you can look past it, which I was mostly able to do, Stone is worth the read.

[Bookslover09 · Rating 3 out of 5]

fast read!

A delightful and swift read! The author dived straight into the heart of the story, cutting through any unnecessary fluff. While it may not align perfectly with my usual tastes, I found myself fully engaged and entertained right up until the very last page.
