I had the perfect plan to get back at my biggest enemy. Kidnap his daughter. The club made it look like she’d gone on a retreat. But instead, she was here. In my possession. Her big green eyes begged me for mercy. She knew I wasn’t going to let her go. I’d fallen in love with her. Her soft skin had become my obsession. Would she return back to me if I let her escape?
Christoff has his product stolen by his fiancee, Hannah for Brisbane Industries. To retaliate, he has Rachel kidnapped and put on a secluded island while giving her father 6wks to come clean. Rachel believes Chris is the guard until right before they leave, he tells her the truth. She walks out never wanting to see him again, but they fell in love on the island…can they really go back to their old lives?
Rachel loved her family an playing the cello. She never imagined that her seemingly perfect life was anything but. Christoff is Hell bent on revenge when he learns that Hannah the woman he loved and had been with for three years was sent to steal proprietary information. He devises a plan to obtain his stolen program and exact revenge on the man who stole it.
The characters are great as always. The story line was amazing. I do wish we were privy to how Rachel and Drew pulled of the coup.

Taken by C.C. Piper: A Dark Billionaire Romance is book Two in The Billionaire’s Secret Club Series. This is the story of Christoff ‘Chris’ and Rachel and I did think it could be a standalone romance.
Chris is a programmer who was deceived and had what he was working on stolen. The person he holds responsible for is Jack Brisbane. So Chris thinks to get revenge and money back is to kidnap his daughter Rachel who he believes to be a spoiled brat. Chris takes her to a excluded island where they end up starting to see that they are what they each thought of the other. Of course their feelings for each other start to take off. Steamy read.
4.5 stars – Heartbreak and Betrayal Lead to Love – Heartbreak and betrayal send Christoff on a destructive path with Rachel in the way. What he doesn’t expect is to fall for the “spoiled rich girl” he thought was being taken. Their time alone is one thing but the reality of the outside world has something else in store for them. There lives are turned upside down and they shaken for good measure. It’s a fantastic story.
4.5 stars
Such a great read. Love the beautiful love story and the storyline. These two make such a cute couple. I felt like I was on thaf island with them!
Bitter vengeance and love do not mix
—>>> Review Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars – Christoff Green finds that crossing the line and committing a felony is the only way left to exact retribution from Jack Brisbane, CEO of Brisbane Industries, a man he knows has stolen his cutting-edge gaming software, breaking his heart in the process as well. When he gets his chance, Christoff does not hesitate to use Jack’s daughter, Rachel, to force his hand and Jack has six weeks to comply to his demands. But when Christoff gets to know Rachel, he realizes that his desperate action have made him no better than her father.
This was a good romance, not as dark as I had expected, and I would have liked to have had one final appearance and tie-up regarding the Wish Maker, but did like the mysterious element that was introduced.

4.5 star review
Rachel is the daughter of billionaire mogul Jack Brisbane. Christoff (Chris) Green has just been ripped off as a result of Jacks underhanded methods. As payback he arranges to have Rachel kidnapped and held for ransom till he can get back what is his.
What ensues on the island where Chris is holding Rachel captive was something that Chris never expected… much less saw coming.
Chris starts to have second thoughts the minute he meets Rachel. Was she really the spoilt brat he thought she was.
Chemistry between these two is hot
Will Chris’ plans for revenge be thwarted… or will he get something even better in return.
Loved the premise of this story.
A definite must read

The book was great, the story was well written and the characters are interesting. Continued from book one, after kidnapping Rachel to get back at her father. There is some twist and turns and some mild love but not and dark romance as I thought it would be.
Thank you for allowing me to review your book.

Not dark but she is still taken
*** 3 1/2 Stars ***
So I am just going to say this right off the top…………this is not a dark billionaire romance story. It does have billionaires and it does have romance but it is not dark, at least not when compared to other authors that I read. It was an enjoyable story but I just wish it had been more flushed out and darker.
Taken is the story of Christoff and Rachel in which he has her kidnapped as revenge against her father. It seems Christoff was completely and utterly in love with Hannah but she double crossed him and stole from the gaming company he owns. The idea she stole ended up going to a business rival of his, Rachel’s father. So a heartbroken and pissed off Christoff wants revenge and the only way he can think to do that is to have Rachel kidnapped and he uses the Wish Maker to arrange it all.
Once he actually has Rachel he quickly realizes that he is not prepared for this and regrets it. But what does he do now as he will have to keep her. He treats her well and ensure that she is well taken care of. But she believes he is her guard and not the person who planned this. They become close and begin a relationship. But what will happen when she finally discovers he is behind everything and the reason why?
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
Taken is the second book in C.C. Piper’s The Billionaire’s Secret Club series focusing on Christoff, whose designs and programs were stolen by a woman who he loved but in reality was implanted by his rival to deceive him , and Rachel, daughter of Brisbane Industry’s CEO who Christoff believes is responsible for his business sabotage and enacts revenge upon him by kidnapping her. This book has betrayal, misconceptions, revenge, kidnapping, twists and turns, and steamy attraction and love. I recommend this surprising and enjoyable read.

This is the second book in this series and sees two lost souls meeting and realizing they have amazing chemistry together. It’s a slightly dark theme and has some triggers due to the initial plot of kidnapping. It’s a well written romance between two people in the most unexpected time and place.

This is not a dark story. It was a nice easy reading with a bit of angst when the heroine Rachel is kidnapped and she starts to falls for our kidnapper Chris. Chris is looking for revenge from her father who stole some of his ideas. It could be an amazing story .

I expected this to be darker based on the blurb and how it’s marketed but the story itself is good. After Rachel is kidnapped it’s not really as dark as you would expect. However, the connection that Chris and Rachel develop has you waiting anxiously for what’s to become.

Christopher wants revenge on his rival for the ideas he stole from his gaming company. Chris decided that he would kidnapped his rivals daughter and get his revenge that way. Chris finds himself started to care for Rachel and as much as she doesn’t want to care for him he starts to grow on her. Not as dark a story as I thought it would be. I expected some twists and turns but the outcome of the two main characters was very predictable. I did enjoy the story though and would recommend it.

**Spoilers**
I thought this was well written, but the story wasn’t what I expected.
The synopsis made it seem like it would be ‘darker’. I feel like once she was kidnapped it moved too fast. She got with her ‘guard’ too quickly. I feel like she should’ve been more afraid, more apprehensive of the whole situation.
I did like the relationship that developed between the 2 main characters, they seem like they were meant to be. I also appreciate that her father was taken down the way that he was.
In the end, I would recommend this, but know it ends up being more of a feel good story.

Chris is a successful billionaire who has had some software and programmes stolen from him, by someone he loved and trusted for her employer. So he asks the Wish Maker for her help.
Rachel is studying hard at college to take over her parents business with her twin brother, but one afternoon on her way home she is kidnapped and wakes up far from home with a man she named Guard! All she knows is that she has been taken because her father has taken something that doesn’t belong to him.
Chris and Rachel spend a lot of time together on the secluded island and the attraction between the two is hard to imagine, but it’s there. He feeds her, tends to her when she is sick and eventually lets her go, afterall he loves her, but when he tells Rachel the truth she wants nothing to do with him.
Can love help Chris and Rachel get through this and be together or is the fact he had her kidnapped too much for her handle.
A lovely read with betrayal and love
This book hooked me from the get go I just couldn’t put it down I fell in love with these characters and omg what a story just a perfect
