It kind of kills the suspense when so many characters are millionaires and can just conveniently summon helicopters at will in order to escape!

Yeah, Parker, how fucking noble of you to resist "plundering her lush mouth" while she was your fucking captive. I detest you.

"I'll let you leave once we come to terms."

Really, Parker?!? Just let her leave you absolute fucking toad of a loser.

She thinks she's going to DIE at the hands of the "hero", for fuck's sake! What the actual fuck were the authors - women, I might add - smoking when they belched this shit out?

He has her wrists bound and she thinks she's about to get raped. I don't think I've ever hated a book this much.

This prickly sensation under her skin had to be a rant brewing inside her. It was temper and frustration, not attraction to the man holding her hostage.

It's called Stockholm Syndrome, Rebecca.

Now Parker is holding Rebecca in a "safe" room AGAINST HER WILL. He says it's for her own safety, but I can think of 100 different ways Parker could get the information he's after WITHOUT KEEPING A WOMAN PRISONER AGAINST HER WILL.

This book is disgusting.

Aaaaaand now he's going through her emails.

1 star already. No coming back from this, folks! I should probably DNF this right here and now.

Aaaaaand, the "hero" is breaking into the heroine's apartment.

Nope.
