I really liked the story! It’s a bit intense when the couple reunite for the first. Time in 20 years. The storieline is very action packed and the steaminess is off the charts!! Remi is a A Chef on a reality competition. Then when things take a big turn downward, the first person she thinks of is Morgan! Then everything gets really just chaos!! Good read!!

As with all Delta James books the alpha is very alpha and the object of his desire is always perfect for him. Morgan is such a dirty talking man and definitely talks the talk and walks the walk. Sex is on every page and although this may seem a little much it definitely does not detract from the storyline in fact it makes it better. Two great characters together with ancillary characters make this a very intriguing story. This is such a good story I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending this book.

Hoss will make you wish he was your personal Texas Rancher. He is one Texan that I would love to disobey just to have his discipline. This is one hot read that you can’t put down.

I absolutely loved this book and was honored to have been able to read and review. It was such a phenomenal read and had amazing characters as well as an amazing story line. I just could not get enough of it and once I started reading it I could not put it down. I recommend that you read it.

Hoss, aka Morgan never really got his first chance at a relationship with Remi due to having manipulative people in their lives. Add to that a lack of communication, and you end up with one party harboring hard feelings.
Remi was in a bind. The mystery of her roommate ‘s death along with death threats sent her way were hanging over her head. I thought it was interesting that the first person she thought to turn to was Morgan, especially after all of the years they as been separated.
I don’t mind D/s and spanking books. This one bothered me because Morgan seemed to be acting out of anger and without Remi’s consent. Eventually, there was consent by acceptance, then verbally, and Morgan’s anger at Demi seemed to dissipate. I just felt like Remi hung around at first because she loved Morgan, she was afraid, felt safe with him, and didn’t have another option. It also irritated me that Morgan NEVER asked Remi what happened all those years ago. I also didn’t get a sense of the romance that usually appears in these books. I guess had gotten used to the whole “fated mate” concept in other books by the author.
If D/s, many, many spankings, and a few intense sexual experiences offend you or make you uncomfortable, you should take a pass on this book. Morgan, his team, and Remi managed to solve the mystery, while the couple declared their love, and reached their HEA.

*****AUDIOBOOK UPDATE APRIL 2020*****2 STARS
Reading the book and listening to it was very different for me. My initial review, when I read the ebook was higher. I think I focused more on the mystery than the treatment of Remi. With the audiobook, it felt like Remi’s treatment was more “shoved in my face”.
I have found this happens on occasion. I find my perspective about a book can change negatively if I have read the book first and than listened to the audio version or vice versa. Not with every book, maybe 5 or less. Sometimes the audio version makes a book seem much better. Other times, not so much.
I like most of Delta James’ work. Overall, Hoss was not one of my likes. It was definitely a rough “romance”.
Hoss was holding on to a years long grudge about something he thought Remi did when they were much younger. Not only did he not allow her to explain the circumstances, but he forced her into non consensual acts. He seemed to be of the mindset that as long as her body responded, it was ok.
The reality cooking show, the stalker, and the murder mystery storyline were intriguing. Hoss and Remi’s relationship was not.
If intense non con sexual scenes, spanking, etc. offend you, take a pass on this one. I listened to the audio book and thought the narration was not bad at all.

This talented author has written a suspenseful somewhat dark romance & I found it to be a fascinating & enjoyable read. The plot is well-written & intriguing with some unusual events and/or situations. The well-developed characters are quite unique & have good chemistry between them although they do have some unusual traits & are inclined to be strong-willed at times.
There is: after 20 long years – a rather domineering man (Hoss aka Morgan) reconnects with a woman (Remi) who is under suspicion for the murder of her roommate & he is determined to protect her even if that means disciplining her, drama, intrigue, suspense, twists & turns, memories, fantasies, longings, danger, threats, deceit, action adventure, conspiracies, murder, discipline, spankings, punishments, some rough sexual scenes, defiance, ultimatums, frustration, anger, humiliation, misunderstandings, confrontations, declarations, steamy scenes, love, contentment & a satisfying conclusion.
There is a lot of sex in this book but there is also a mystery that the hero needs to solve while protecting the love of his life. Twenty years is a long time for someone to sustain a love for someone they haven’t seen in all that time but Hoss/Morgan and Rémi were soulmates and even though Morgan is a strict master, Rémi runs to him when she is involved in a murder and so begins the love affair. An enjoyable book with a puzzle to solve.
Loved the story. Reconnecting after two decades, Remi shows up on Morgan’s (Hoss) doorstep after she has been accused of murder. Hoss and his team work to prove her innocence and keep her from being killed along with trying to discover who the real murderer is. Even with all this going on, the main part of the story is the reconnecting of Remi and Hoss, after all of these years, which involves a lot of harsh punishments for failing to obey him followed by extreme sex. Their sexual interaction is explosive and very erotic in nature. There is a HEA but a lot happens first which makes this a fantastic read. I would highly recommend this book.
Delta strikes again with wonderful characters, a different storyline and a romance which, while a little darker, is still romance – Delta-style romance of course. I loved it but then I’m never disappointed by a Delta book
Remi is a chef in a competition. An unknown person(s) is putting her in danger. She comes home to Morgan for protection. Unresolved questions from the past arise. I found lots of humor throughout the book. Good book, well written!
