Description:
If steamy romance is your cup of tea, then this is definitely the book for you. An intense alpha male. Then a very clever girl. When combined, a passionate, riveting version of the familiar cat-and-mouse chase occurs.Enter Leonardo William Brandon, an undercover British spy working for MI6. His entire life, he considered the concept of love to be mere fiction, and something he didn't think he would find himself pursuing. Then comes Keira Harding, an ordinary girl studying Business Management in London. After their most dramatic encounter, Leo's look on love would suffer a paradigm shift. He just couldn't stop wanting her.Keira found him as evanescent as he was mysterious. She yearned to disclose the endless secrets of his royal blue eyes. He was so near, and yet he seemed so far away. Naively, she had thought she knew him, but all this time, she had been spellbound by a professional liar.

"I think that's enough for now, or else I won't be able to restrain myself," he warned hoarsely.A rush of dopamine poured through my mind upon his declaration. "What happens if you can't restrain yourself?" I asked breathless and felt my cheeks flush from anticipation. How I wanted him. Lust ruled my entire person when I stared at him. I imagined his naked body atop mine, strong like a fortress while he pleasured me like a god. "Then I'll have you right here, right now, which is very risky," he grumbled and looked away from me, clearly meaning business.

Why It's A Gem: DO NOT GET ME STARTED ON CLAIREDBENNETT. The Faceless Man is a dream to readers. I was frustrated beyond belief for a whole lot of the story, but those beautiful moments in between make it so rewarding. I have already started on the sequel, which is ongoing, and it's just as good. I definitely love all of clairedbennett's works, but I'll tell you about that later!
