Kara is ready to kill her boss, Max. She also wants him so badly it’s making her nuts. He’s a workaholic, and finds ways to keep her on the job late, ruining any love life she could have. Plus, he’s never shown the least bit of interest in her and that’s how she wants it, right? Maybe. Things change when their plane crashes on their way to a meeting, leaving them stranded on a deserted island. … Kara decides to start taking what she wants in life. Max.
Max has wanted Kara since he hired her. He’s seen her anger at him for keeping her close and knows she hates his guts. So any thought of asking her out or getting intimate is out the window. She‘d flat out reject him. He’s sure of it. After their crash, Max decides he’s tired of hiding his desires. Their passions ignite on the virgin sands, burning hot. Oh, so hot.
Discovering an international drug operation on the other side of the island, Max and Kara become targets of a cartel that wants their secret location kept secret. And dead men don’t talk. After being rescued and back in the States, an attempt is made on Kara’s life, nearly killing her. Max thinks the cartel has found them but soon figures out the danger is much closer to home than anyone could’ve ever suspected.

I’m a big fan of the author, Milly Taiden and her awesome stories 🙂 This was definitely no exception to that, this was a great, fast-paced story with suspense, passion, adventure filled with action; including carnal pleasures ones 😉 and a 100% guaranteed happy ending for the main characters, Max and his Kara <3
I can't wait for the next story from this author! 🙂

I have never read a contemporary romance by Milly Taiden. I really enjoyed it.
It needs a good proofreading though.
Milly Taiden is such an easy to read author with sarcastic funny characters to die for lol. Such an awesome read!!
3.5
Kara and Max both want each other but don’t act on their feelings until after crash landing on an island. They then have to survive many attempts on their lives before making it to their happily ever after. Entertaining story full great chemistry, action and adventure and suspense.
Stranded Temptation is sexy, sweet and laugh out loud funny. In this boss and assistant romance we have the hunky workaholic boss and the smart and sassy assistant. I really enjoyed this delightful story.
I really loved this story the characters are so relatable. Denying themselves who and what they want for the good of their careers , but you can only deny yourself so long before it affects you… Kara and Max were hot, funny and lovable.. This book was sexy,exciting and kept me hooked… Hope to see Brian gets hit by the love bug in the next book…
LOVED it! Action, suspense, heat, a crash landing…. what else could you want in a book? I loved the office romance portion of this. Well, ok, so more of they want each other but Kara wants to brutally murder her boss because not only does he make her work all kinds of crazy hours but he makes her sex drive spin out of control, oh and she has to miss a cruise with her best friend to go off to South America with him. Twist and turns and not a moment of down time. Be prepared to pull an all nighter when you read, because there is not a good spot to put it down!

If fated mates applied to contemporary romance novels, that’s what you’d have here. This is the 2nd contemporary by Miss Taiden that I’ve read and while I prefer her PNR, I enjoyed this one too. There’s a feisty heroine, an Alpha male, lot’s of action & danger thrown in.

This story really goes places I didn’t expect and in various forms of humour or tension.
A madcap and fast pasted gripping read with some hysterically funny moments that had me giggling.
The scene with Gray in the restaurant was just too good to be true. I laughed till I had tears.
Though I loved the characters and plot it was just missing a bit of connection for me between Kara and Max in the beginning and I didn’t really feel they were going anywhere due to lack of actual conversation.
Will be interesting to see if David the brother gets his book.
This is a rereleased extended version of a shorter story I read quite a while ago.
This is my honest review of this book.
It is just one misadventure after the other for Max and Kara. Kara isn’t happy when she has to cancel her Birthday cruise to go on a business trip with her boss. Beginning with a plane crash, it all goes down hill from there! Lots of near death experience. Lots of sex and a happy ending for Kara and Max.
Dang don’t know if I consider Kara freaking unlucky or lucky but I do believe she should invest in a human bubble lol. But she sure does know how to ride that adrenaline high afterwards
What a fun read. Milly gives you so much action and adventure and love and hot sex! Kara works for Max. He makes her work a lot because he is secretly in love with her and he doesn’t want her to have any free time to “find someone else”. He ruins her upcoming vacation by making her come to a meeting with him. While on that plane ride to the meeting the plane goes down and the adventure begins! I love that she finally gives in to her attraction to Max. I love the dialogue and the story line and everything in between
Great story about the too hot to handle alpha couple of Kara and Max as they work together to tackle an infamous drug cartel and three conspiring board members to stay safe and to run the company as it deserved to be run in the 21st century. Can the type A workaholic Max stop long enough to enjoy his mate and give her the break she needs from their 24/7 work schedule? Will they solve the mystery of who’s trying to kill her and have him declared incompetent? Read on if you want those questions answered, and be prepared for some really steamy, passionate love scenes along the way. No one writes them like Milly.
I am not a lover of the whole “billionaire” trope but when it’s written by Milly Taiden, well I had to give it a try! I was not disappointed. Th same heat as her PNR titles, with action/adventure and some very Alpha moments from Max!
Kara is a workaholic. Not through choice- she just doesn’t get much say in the matter when her boss Max works just as hard. However she finally has a holiday with her bestie to celebrate a milestone birthday. But Max sticks a spanner in the works and now she has to go to South America with him. She is not a happy bunny…and extended time with Max will send her poor, neglected libido into overdrive, along with her dreams of his sexy self!
Max knows he is being a total putz by making Kara work on her birthday but he can’t stand the thought of her getting down and dirty with another guy, not when he wants her all to himself. But when their plane goes down on a tropical island, far from their intended, planned route, Max Is happy to be stranded with the star of his dreams. Even better…her dad prepared his girl for any situation. No wimpy weepy woman to deal with!
Between drug cartels, shady financial business dealings & several attempted assassination plots, Kara and Max relationship has a baptism of fire. If they can survive all this they can survive anything!
I luuuurved this story so much! Brian is a real nut and I hope he gets his own story soon!
