His Ransom
There was one surprise he had been saving for the very end.
I knew that there was more to billionaire Jake Carville than what he showed the world. But I didn’t know that Jake’s past was so dark... and so dangerous.
Lacey Miller is just a curvy girl, a tomboy, a street artist. When she steps into Jake Carville’s life, his obsession with her will lead her into a world like she’s never seen. A world of wealth and power. A world of unquenchable passion and unspeakable cruelty.
Jake Carville, billionaire playboy, has never found a woman he can open up to. Not until Lacey. She’s the only woman he cares about. His gift. His love.
… and that’s why she’s the perfect hostage.

I'll review the series, because each book has like 60 pages and....
So, thank GOD for Kindle Unlimited, because i don't think i would have paid money for these series.
As i said before, i don't really like short novels. They all seem rushed. This one included. BUT, it has something new: a billionaire who like to dress up in hoodies and paint graffitis through NY or Paris. Seriously?
Anyways, something in all this smells a lot like FSOG. Alpha male handsome billionaire, who likes kinky stuff (BDSM, of course), sad childhood, meets young virgin whom he starts to fall in love with and .
I must admit, it was intriguing and i didn't dislike it. There wasn't just sex, so it was ok.

Oh, man! Wish it didn't end! I would have loved to continue this journey with Jake and Lacey, but all good things must come to an end. I love stories with suspense and intrigue and I wish this was a full length novel so I could get more of that. The ending was sweet, making me want so much more! I have been eyeing the side characters ever since His Gift, and I can't wait for more from them. So bring on Rachel, Lucas and Steph, and Rien's story!!!!!

This review is for book his ransom 4to6
It was far more entertaining that the first 3 parts... it felt to short, and lac of depth...
there's nothing romantic about their stay in París until well the end of their stay... i kind of felt their chemistry was off and even the kidnap approach was very methodical... the suspence was entertaining but the romace part was off.... i didn't feel it

This was a great series. Quick, fast paced story. Easily pulled into and engrossed in the roller coaster ride this story puts you on. Fun and emotional with romance and sexual tension, everything you need. Will be looking into this author.

Jake and Lacey paint a medium burn romance work of art. Beware ladies more things than street art get painted in vivid color is this story.
August 20, 2016
This is a six-part novel series. It is very sensitive and at times very funny wth extremely hot BDSM scenes, Lacey is a graffiti artist who is about to lose her apartment. She has taken a part-time job as a bartender at night along with her job as a waitress in the daytime. Her bff Steph who owns a bakery has asked her to deliver a $2000 birthday cake for her and she'll pay her $100. Lacey's a tomboy and doesn't wear dresses. But Lucas the man that commissioned the cake's delivery has insisted it be delivered by a female in a dress. Steph dolls Lacey up and sends her on her way. She winds up going into the wrong room while looking for the kitchen and enters an art gallery in the billionaire's home. Her heel gets caught in the deep pile carpet and she looses the cake. She kicks off her shoes and walks barefoot looking at the art and she sees that the cake lands on the floor and the shoe of the billionaire birthday cake recipient, Jake. He mistakes her her as the gift that Lucas has promised him as a birthday gift for a week. An amazing read. So much happens to this couple, including several kidnappings

he last installment finds Lacey and Jake in Paris Lacey is bored and doing a lot of site seeing and spending time with Jean Luc who has her meet him at a bar for a drink and finds herself being kidnapped thinking that Jake has no way of knowing where she is or who she is with and Jean Luc not really Jean Luc at all but someone that is familiar to Jake but not he wants Jake to give him $10 million to return Lacey to him unharmed he takes her to the bowels of Paris and demands Jake come alone and brings $1 million of the $10 and transfer the balance when he arrives. This is really a very beautiful heart felt story the best of the triology. Love it recommend it for readers 18+.

OMG! Yes, that's the best way to sum up what enfolds in this installment for Lacey and Jake. Secrets are revealed and old truths are found to be false. Jake has to face so many things but Lacey is right there by his side, holding him up and giving him strength. This leads to the ultimate surprise crafted by Jake for Lacey that is oh so romantic and wonderful … sigh! All the while we get the same level of heat with their off-the-charts sexual encounters.

What an awesome ending!
I am not going to even give you a hint of all that is discovered in this last part of the story, only that it has been well worth the wait for this whole series. It has been very enjoyable, I laughed, I got angry, I panted, even got frustrated, but it was great.
I highly recommend reading this series in it's entirety, it is well worth the read
Congratulations on a great series Aubrey!

His Ransom (A Dark Billionaire Romance Part 6) (Dark Billionaires) by Aubrey Dark
** I received an ARC from the Author in exchange for my honest review **
Outstanding!! What a perfect ending to a fantastic series. This book was full of intense emotions—fear, love, lust, happiness, relief and pure joy to name a few. All my questions were beautifully answered in this book. I am very grateful to the author for the chance to read this edgy yet touching story.

oh to have my own Jake!
Jake & Lacey are to cute... Oh and Jake... Who would've thought in book one that he would be so sweet by book 6... I enjoyed this series... I belong to kindle unlimited so I did not have to buy each section, so I might have been perturbed had I bought each section because I really don't like having to pay for a few chapters. But overall it was a good read and I enjoyed Jake and Lacy's story...
Happy Reading

His ransom is a Good quick read.
Although every single one of these books is way to short they are fun to read. This one was the most unpredictable of the series. I enjoyed the twist with Sean the most.
I would recommend this book to those who enjoy the tales of disgustingly rich men falling in love and moving way too fast with women that don't have much. One could only dream of being lucky enough to have this happen.

Wow,just wow!
I just finished this series and I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed it! The author is much better at reeling you into the sex scenes than e.l. James! She had me hooked after the first 2 pages of book one! I love the dynamic between the main characters. She did very well making their relationship cohesive and believable. And this is coming from someone that reads a lot of serials and never leaves feedback!

Though rushed, I like the way this series ended. I also liked how we were set up for the series involving the side characters, such as Rien, Lucas and Steph. I wish we could get a glimpse as to how Jake and Lacey integrate or interact with his family in the future. And the epilogue was just a continuation of the previous chapter. Not at all what I expect from an epilogue. Ah well. Not sure if these two show up in any of the other series. But here's to hoping.

Loved this series.
I would dare to say parts 1-3 are better than FSoG! Parts 4-6 are great as well but didn't capture me the way the others did. I am definitely a fan of Aubrey now!!
Why should you read these? Why not? He's a billionaire Dom and she's a shy tomboy turned sub. Fantastic story!!

Much better than the rest of the books
Jake is a much nicer man. Not such the arrogant fool that he's been. He realizes what he has with Lacey and he's going to do everything he can to keep been

Part 1-3: 4 stars! Great chemistry and characters that really caught my interest. Could not put down!
Part 4-6: 2 stars! Was really happy when I found out that there was a continuation to these. Too bad that they were only decent - what happened to the heat?

Fascinating
I wasn't real thrilled with the rough sex in the beginning, but you could see how the character was changing and then I couldn't put it down. Really good series. Glad I took the chance and purchased it.

I would just say the ending was little bit over romantic... It was not even Practical in Fiction world, I know it is oxymoron but it true... Over all nice small read with just 3 stars... I can't give more than that...

Loved the ending, however, the whole kidnapping situation along with meeting the brother was strange. It could have been written better.

I love that they got the happy ending they deserve!
