Sweet, sexy but hopelessly untogether Pandora Fitchett is in deep trouble. Having broken her engagement to a bullying lawyer, she buries herself in her new secretarial job with the Navy, only to find herself embroiled in a plot to steal government information. Tricked into spying on her boss, and a witness to murder, Pandora is drugged, kidnapped and delivered to Xavier Dragon, a ruthless cyber … ruthless cyber terrorist.
Disappeared and vulnerable, Pandora’s survival depends on a man who has no empathy, no sense of justice or obligation. A man who destroys lives from his laptop.
Captor, or saviour? In a passionate tale of intrigue and espionage, Pandora is about to discover nothing can be assumed about anyone. Even herself.
Note: this is not a dark romance. While Pandora is a capture romance, it offers a twist on the genre with a heroine who finds herself and love, without suffering the darker elements that are typically part of these tales.

And the best news was,that i got the ARC…..
Pandora’s life isn’t fun,she’s a disappointment to her parents,and her ex is furious she ended their relationship.
Not because he loves her,but because she was his ticket to her father’s business….
Now,she’s stuck in a job she doesn’t like,and to top it all,she’s done something she shouldn’t.
So,being abducted only adds to her list of bad luck,and she can only hope she’s going to survive.
Meeting the man that organized her abduction isn’t doing that hope a lot of good.
Until she gets to know him…..
Xavier Dragon is famous and feared for his genius mind, and his hacking qualities are the best in the world.
The only thing he doesn’t understand is emotions.
But when he is asked to investigate Pandora because of what she’s done,he is….intrigued.
This girl stirrs up a feeling he’s not familiar with,but one he likes nonetheless.
Pulling her out of a tricky situation and having her delivered to him is a no-brainer.
But how to make her like him,that is the hard part…
Pandora started out as a naive girl,that only wanted to be loved.
But as the story progressed,she grew into a woman that knew what she wanted.
A woman that stood her ground when needed,and one that recognized the man Xavier was deep down.
Xavier may have been a genius,but he was new to the feeling department.
As he said himself,emotions are like braille to him.
But Pandora slowly changed that as his feelings for her grew.
What to do about her need to get away from the people he works for,though?
Can they? Does he even want to? And where could they possibly go without being found?
And worse….get her killed?
This was a story of two people finding eachother in a dangerous world.
Of two halves making a beautiful whole,and a story of emotional growth.
And it was a story of finding a place to belong.
In short,it was a story i enjoyed very much!
Wow, I love unique storytelling and this one blew me away. Cover was cute but the blurb sucked me in!
What did I like? Pandora is an innocent caught up in mess that she can’t control when she is kidnapped and taken to the Dragon. Xavier… known as the Dragon has been watching Pandora and wants her for his own. This was a thrilling ride and I loved Xavier’s nickname for Pandora. This was a fun read!
Would I recommend or buy? If you recognize the author or not this is an engrossing story that you won’t want to put down. I enjoyed everything about this book! I need more ! I would definitely recommend and want this for my shelf! Loved it!
I received a complimentary copy to read and voluntarily left a review!
AJ Adams has done it again! She has taken unusual characters, put them together, and let the sparks fly. Xavier is a computer hacker who has trouble reading emotions. He works for a “committee” and is kind of a mercenary for those requiring his services. Pandora, working at Admiralty House, is kidnapped by Xavier’s crew and taken as a hostage to stay with Xavier in Africa. Both Xavier and Pandora are strong likable characters and their relationship is fun to watch as it grows. I would recommend this book to those who like romance but romance with a twist.
This was a really enjoyable read, so much so I’ll probably read it again (often).
Pandora is in a real pickle. She made a mistake, one in a seemingly long line of mistakes, which gets her in a whole lot of trouble – the kind you don’t wake up from. That’s when her benign stalker Dragon steps in to save her hide. The rest is a fun romantic romp which is much milder than many of this author’s offerings.
Pandora was a likeable character, but I must say that for me Dragon stole the show. He was sweet and confused and ruthless, just my kind of hero.
I would recommend this book to people who like darker themes but without gratuitous violence. Whilst this is a kidnap story, Dragon is in no way the preditor that the “hero” often is in these stories.
