I came to collect on a debt.
Money.
Nothing else.

By the time I left, I had something so much more valuable than money—his beautiful daughter.

From one look, I was determined. From one taste, I was obsessed.

I ran into the arms of my father’s enemy. He came for me and had no intention of letting me go.

From one look, I was mesmerized. From one taste, I was his.

C.M. Steele always delivers a safe, sweet read.

Theo is obsessed with Phoebe from the moment he sees her, although all his business is not always on the up and up he has a comfortable life but wasn’t expecting to find his one and only but now that he has there is nothing that he won’t do to have her and keep her safe. And getting her away from her father is where he needs to start, after discovering a plan to auction her and her virginity off to pay off his debts and the only way he can save her is to kidnap her, how will he convince Phoebe he was saving her from her father and show her how he really feels before she tries to leave him?

Phoebe thought everything was going to be ok when her father arrived after the death of her mother, things haven’t been easy living with her mother’s addiction but they made things work. But things aren’t what they seem and her father is in debt and when she learns of his plan is devastated. So when Theo and his men kidnap her she is ashamed of her instant attraction to him and even more confused when she learns the full truth of the situation. Her feelings for Theo only grow but when he seems to keep his distance she is left feeling unsure and insecure. Could she have misread his feelings and if so should she leave and start her life somewhere new?

These two characters are perfect for one another and the story of their realisation of that is cute to read. Perfect insta everything read.

Theo is book four in the Alpha series and is definitely my favorite.

Safe and scorching with an OTT alpha, a sassy h and the right amount of sweet thrown in.

3 huge stars.

Would I read it again? Yes

-No cheating
-No ow/om drama
-no violence of a sexual nature
-pushing away at first by the heroine. The hero was all in but she resistant. No intimacy until past 50%
-ok epilogue

"Theo" is the story of Phoebe and Theo.

Another possessive alpha- virgin heroine romance with a hymen auction, kidnapping, creepy fathers, claiming, sweet lovemaking and HEA with cute epilogue.

Safe
4/5

Sweet and short!!

Late night reading or a quick lunch read!

This one was okay for me i was alittle disappointed that once Theo kidnapped Phoebe he wasn't really spending time with her.. like he would and sleep in bed but then like few hours or so he would leave and work.. it was discussed in the book she felt like a unwanted guest.. so glad they said something.. but still he had tons of meetings or phone calls.. so we see banter and alot of him working.. idk like only alpha part i saw really was him kidnapped her to keep her safe & when she told him she was leaving.. THATS the alpha i want.

I didn't really feel like were connected.. besides the sex part and the epilogue😭😭😭

No ow/om drama, No cheating, Drama, slight tiny secondary chara, sexy time, virgin gal and no manwhore guy

Recommend- yes

How can you not love an alpha that doesn't quite know how to handle falling in love? Theo's obsession with Phoebe leads him to kidnapping her to save her. With her in his home, he fumbles a bit with how he should proceed, how his life has changed. Phoebe was taken by surprise by her kidnapper and the feelings he evoked in her. His words and actions confuse her, leaving her feeling insecure and unsteady. I had so much fun watching these two navigate their love and attraction! Brava, C.M. Steele for this sweet and funny but still alpha romance!

Theo has money to get back from a lender and that's when he finds out that he has a daughter . Theo sees Phoebe and is instantly obsessed with her. When her estranged father tries to auction off her V-card Theo just knows he has to act fast and kidnapped her. Phoebe and Theo instantly fell for each other and Theo vowed to keep his woman safe and happy . Instalove, kidnapper/ captive, sweet, OTT, steamy, J/ obsessed alpha male, romantic and safe with a sweet HEA and no drama😍😍😍😍

Theo and Phoebe are definitely the perfect match for one another :) I loved their story, chemistry, banter and fire and passion for what they believed in and once the misunderstandings were cleared up, in each other ;) Their ending was perfect <3 and I can't wait for the next story from this awesome author :)

Ok but not my favourite of the series!

This story was just ok for me, it wasn’t my favourite in the series. There just wasn’t enough of a connection between the two characters. I felt Theo and Phoebe spent too much time apart. He was either away at work or in meeting, the two barely spoke to each other. There was also very little information about Theo and his life, it’s hard to connect with a character when you know nothing about them.

Safety and Spoilers
Completely safe. No ow/om drama. Nothing about the H’s past and h is a virgin. No abuse, h’s father was going to auction her off in a virgin auction.

My Hero

With one look Theo knew that he wanted Phoebe when he first saw her. After researching into her life he knew it was a matter of time before he went to her. But with news that her father was planning to auction her off, he knew that he could not wait another day. Lucky for him a chance bump in and an innocent Kiss, shows him that their connection is real. Theo wants everything to be perfect for his Love, but with work and an arson he just doesn’t have the time that he wants. Phoebe has fallen in love with her captor/hero and she wouldn’t change a thing. With having no family left Theo is her everything. Loved this story.

Theo

A kidnapping done right! Phoebe's father owes Those a large sum of money and Theo is definitely not someone you want to cross. Theo finds out that the debtor has a daughter that he is planning to do nefarious things with. Enter Theo's obsession. A kidnapping leads to the best kind of happily tin this story! I absolutely LOVED this OTT alpha hero that stops at nothing to keep his woman safe!

Loved Theo and Phoebe's story.

Phoebe ran right into the arms of her father's enemy, Mr. Theo Christakos and he will never let her go. Theo has been obsessed with Phoebe ever since he first saw her picture and he's decided she will be his payment for the money her father owes him. But who's the real enemy here. This is a great obsessed alpha male romance and I highly recommend it!

Fantastic

Theo is one possessive beast and will do everything to get Pheobie away from her worthless. Theo saves Phoebie and is forced to tell her the truth. Can she fall in love with him as much as he does? If you love C.M Steele this book is just as fantastic and you get to meet the cruise line buyer from the book Graham, and find out why he had to rush off from the meeting after receiving the phone call.

Well I wish someone was obsessed with me as Theo is obsessed with Phoebe.


Loved Theo and his obsessiveness. He knew right away that Phoebe was the one for him and he will do anything to get her.

Phoebe knew something was up with her dad but didn’t know what to do about it. When she runs right into Theo and kisses him. Oh boy she knows she is screwed because he is it.

Instant heat and instant love.

Absolutely loved it.

Theo becomes obsessed with Phoebe when he goes after a man who has stole from him. He finds out that Phoebe's father is planning on selling her and he vows to protect her. Now he has the object of his obsession with him but can her earn Phoebe's trust?

This was a fun quickie. I wish it was just a bit longer but overall an entertaining.

Awesome

I have read all the books in this series and they are all good. If need a little down time, a quick escape, then pick up one of these books. The hero’s are over the top possessive and the ladies are just spunky enough to take them.

Poor Phoebe has no idea what to expect when she runs into Theos arms, she's his little kidnapped victim. Though not all is as it appears. This book was a brilliant addition to the obsessed alpha series! I was captivated, and loved every moment of their story!

Theo is a obsessive alpha who wants Phoebe. He knew right away that Phoebe was the one for him and he will do anything to get her. Their connection is strong and the chemistry between them was holy hotness. Theo and Phoebe were great together. This was a good story.
