BOOK SYNOPSIS:
A man who gave up on love
Mitch Bradford is an intimidating man. In his professional life, he has a reputation for demolishing his opponents in the courtroom. At the exclusive BDSM club Sanctum, he prefers disciplining pretty submissives with no strings attached. In his line of work, there’s no time for a healthy relationship. After a few failed attempts, he knows he’s not good for any woman—especially not his best friend’s sister.
A woman who always gets what she wants
Laurel Daley knows what she wants, and her sights are set on Mitch. He’s smart and sexy, and it doesn’t matter that he’s a few years older and has a couple of bitter ex-wives. Watching him in action at work and at play, she knows he just needs a little polish to make some woman the perfect lover. She intends to be that woman, but first she has to show him how good it could be.
A killer lurking in the shadows
When an unexpected turn of events throws the two together, Mitch and Laurel are confronted with the perfect opportunity to explore their mutual desire. Night after night of being close breaks down Mitch’s defenses. The more he sees of Laurel, the more he knows he wants her. Unfortunately, someone else has their eyes on Laurel and they have murder in mind.
REVIEW:
3.75 Hearts Laurel Daley has her heart set on the one man she can never have. So she has decided it is time for her to move on. But that doesn’t go over very well with Mitch.
Mitch is shocked that Laurel would go to such extremes to get his attention. But she has definitely success. But neither of them are prepared for the reality of the relationship they are about to start.
One thing I love about the 1001 Dark Night series is that we are able to sample stories from authors that we have never read before. This was my first Lexi Blake story. I now know why so many people have great things to say about Ms. Blake. I am going to have to go back and start this series from book 1. I really enjoyed Mitch and Laurel’s story. It was fun and heartbreaking all at the same time, with a dash of suspense added in.
I am looking forward to my next 1001 Dark Night adventure.
