Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,567
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 348
Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 173
Asher Donovan is a living legend—the darling of the Premier League, the (arguably) greatest footballer in the world. But his reckless antics and recent team transfer have caused much controversy, and when his feud with his rival-turned-teammate costs them a championship, they’re forced to “bond” during off-season cross-training. Surviving the summer shouldn’t be hard…until Asher meets their new trainer. She’s beautiful, talented, and no matter how hard he tries, he can’t take his mind off her.

you might just like this one
I am one that likes romance and challenge so if you like a long romance that frustrates you by the decisions of the two involved you might like this book, although I must say that I did not like the end not that it was a bad ending but that it was frustrating to me the hero seemed week and giving in and the heroine seemed to be unwavering when it was wrong. I didn't like the ending at all, with that said you may not like this book because of that, but over all I really enjoyed this read in three days while gardening with my ipod I finished it so I hope if you are in the mood for a long read that is a little frustrating at the end, enjoy

bad ending
I agree with the other "Heather" who reviewed this book. i was unhappy with the ending, i expected something different. I enjoy the two part longer books as they are more worth the money. i am finding the shorter books are rushed with too much happening and not enough on the love story.

Boring & Predictable
It was difficult to get through the whole thing. Her voice didn't change much with the characters & grated as the children's voices. The ending was ridiculous and frankly I skipped to the end because I couldn't take it anymore!

waste of time and money
I'm pretty easy to please and I decided to give this book a try. I wish I hadn't.
The "heroine" is shrewish, hateful, absolutely devoid of logic. What few good qualities she has are used to undermine an underdeveloped and pathetic hero, who despite having many wonderful qualities suffers greatly from seeming to be stupid and blind. It is completely unreasonable to accept that he would actually fall in love with her and unlikely that a reader would like how emasculated he is.
Also, while the book was a torture by itself, I think it suffers further at the hands of a narrator who is at turns grating and sycophantic, making the characters even harder to like.
I would not recommmend this book to anyone who is interested in nobility or consistency in their characters and I would advise caution with purchase of this author. I know I'm completely turned off myself.

Dull, repetitive and unimaginative
I am very sorry I wasted a credit on this "book." This was more like a sketch - characters were lightly drawn and the entire story consisted of one confrontations scene that the author kept repeating at different times of day and in different places. The male lead character was a lummox - his dialogue consisted mostly of repeating the sentence just stated by the female lead character. The female character was indistguishable from the female lead of dozens of other romances. Ick. Hated it.
