Five tamed stars! What. A. Book!! It has the exact amount of everything!
“You make me forget myself.”
Holy. Lord. Tame by Colet Abedi is a great book, so full of tension, love and passion. The storyline is brilliantly developed. Everything about this book has the exact amount to make it impossibly perfect.
The story told inside the pages of this book is all-consuming, heartwarming and soulful. It is a raw expression of true romance. The characters felt too real. It was a refreshing read, worth of the minutes I spent reading it! Tame is a petite-mort!
The pace is fast and the characters are fierce souls that belong to each other. Michael and Abigail understand each other like no one else but they are afraid to show their true feelings. Their relationship is going to be a intense journey of discovery. A sweet innocent crush from childhood will turn into a hot and forbidden attraction that will lead into a breathtaking love. So strong that will leave you breathless.
The whole book is told by the heroine’s POV and the story is set between two beautiful places: London, one of my favourite cities in the world, and Costa Rica. The author did a brilliant work describing bother places. I felt like I was in both places.
The energy and attraction between Abigail and Michael is exciting, risky and dangerous. Abigail fell in love with Michael since he protected her from her stepbrother. He was her first kiss. He was his saviour. He is the only one who understands her, who protect her because she worths it. She is at some point of her life where she doesn’t know what she wants. Her insecurities were fed by her own mother. Michael will be a sinful storm in her life. He will be a forbidden temptation when he became her boss.
“Michael’s a force of nature, and even though he drives me crazy, I realize how much I like just being in his space. His world.”
The desire is too strong to be ignored. Working together will be a hot torture. I enjoy the interaction between them. It was crazy and fun. Both fighting the attraction was a mind-blowing spectacle.
“Protecting you is worth any price I would have to pay.”
Michael is a sinful bachelor. He is a man of many women. He could not be tamed by anyone until Abby. She is different. She made him many things. She tempt him with her beautiful body and kind soul. She is different from any woman he was before. Giving into his desires is not going to be easy. He will do everything to protect Abigail, even to stay away from her.
“I don’t want nice,” I whisper to him. “What do you want?” he demands. “Give me the storm.”
Colet’s writing is extraordinary beautiful and smoothly elegant. This is the first time I read a book of her and it won’t be the last because I am already addicted to her books. The intensity of her words made my soul crave more. It was a great pleasure to read Tame and I want to repeat! I devoured each page with big passion I haven’t feel in a long time.
I highly recommend you this book because it will literally blow your mind. This book is perfect for those readers who enjoy fierce romances, who love employee-boss-romances and innocent childhood crushes. You will enjoy this book because it is a masterpiece magnificently written.
~4.5 STARS~
Tame by Colet Abedi is full of romance and sexual chemistry/tension. It was a book that definitely kept me interested throughout its entirety.
Abby has been in love with Michael Sinclair since they were children when he punched her stepbrother for being cruel to her. He has been in her life off and on, flirting with her, being her first kiss, and ALWAYS protecting her, even if she didn’t know it. However, he has never given her what she wants…his heart. Now, they are adults, and he is a millionaire doing all sorts of charitable work around the world. When she finds herself in a rather tough spot, he offers her a job as his PA. Her mind is screaming at her that this is a very bad idea. Too bad her heart has other ideas, and she accepts his offer.
Although Abby has lived a very privileged life, she was never a snob. In fact, she oftentimes is her worst enemy. She isn’t sure what she wants to do in her life, but she certainly admires and respects Michael for the passion he has for his job. One of my favorite things about him is his faith in Abby. He helps her find some purpose and direction. She certainly doesn’t get it from her mother, stepfather, or stepbrother.
Michael was everything I love in my lead male characters. He is loyal, intelligent, and very protective of the woman he loves. As Abby says,
“He exudes confidence and power, demanding respect, just being in the room. And then there’s the other part of him. The sensitive side that he revealed when speaking to me about his brother. The side that causes him to defend a little girl being bullied by her stepbrother. The part that makes him more human, just like the rest of us. Another facet to his personality that makes the entire package seem more appealing.”
It’s all of those qualities that could bring a woman to her knees. He seemed as if no woman could tame him, but no other woman was Abby.
Abedi certainly knows how to write about sexual tension and chemistry. I definitely felt butterflies in my stomach.
The ONLY thing I wish had been a bit different was the ending. Don’t get me wrong, it was a wonderful book, and my heart definitely melted. However, I felt like it was a somewhat rushed resolution between Abby and her mother. There problems ran too deeply for them to resolve their issues that quickly. Otherwise, this was an excellent read. Abedi is new writer to me, but I am anxious to read more from her!

Tame is the first book that I have read by Colet Abedi and I enjoyed reading Tame.
Tame is Michael and Abby’s story. Abby (Abigail Walters) has loved Michael Sinclair since she was 8 years old when he protected her from her step-brother. Fast forward, now Abby is 23 and having to make her way on her own. She was working a job and not doing it well when Michael offered her a job as his PA. He would train her. Michael has been attracted to Abby for a long time too.
Michael wasn’t sure he could offer her or ever offer her his commitment. One night he seemed in love with her and then the next day he was giving her a cold and detached attitude.
There is an HEA. Which I loved. Overall I enjoyed their story and am looking forward to reading more from this author.
LOVED THIS BOOK!!
For the most part, I enjoyed this book. I liked getting to know the characters and the storyline. My only criticism is that the ending felt rushed to me.
Very good… Perfect ending
very good
Great book.
overall a very good series……..however I think books 1.5 and 2.5 should have been included with 1 and 2 respectively…….totally recommend this series
This was the first time I read one of Colet’s novels, but if you know me at all then you know the white dress shirt on the cover drew me in like a moth to the flame.
Tame is the story of Abby Walters, a woman who met her Prince Charming when she was just eight years old. When sixteen-year-old Michael Sinclair defends Abby from her bully of a step-brother, she is forever haunted by an unrequited love for her knight in shining armor. Years later, when Abby breaks off her engagement from a man she feels pressured to marry, she finds herself on her own for the first time in her life. When Michael seeks her out to offer her a job as his personal assistant, her instincts tell her to run the other way, but she finds herself unable to resist the temptation.
Michael is a successful philanthropist, running his own foundation and sharing his fortune with those who need it more than he does. But even so, he has a reputation as a womanizing playboy and once he sets his sights on pursuing Abby, she must decide whether she will be consumed by his attraction or if she will tame him and make him hers forever.
As a reader, I resisted Michael Sinclair for much of this book. While he is a good man at heart, I found his treatment of Abby baffling for most of the story. It was only when Michael whisked Abby away from their hometown of London for a getaway to his beach home in Costa Rica that he finally began to gain my admiration. Michael’s tropical paradise second home is his favorite place on earth, and when he shared this piece of his heart and soul with Abby, the man she’d always fantasized about was finally revealed.
Tame is the third book in the Mad Love Story series but is easily read as a stand alone novel. The chemistry between Abby and Michael is strong and the unresolved sexual tension between these two is intense. For me, the love story ultimately paid off, but my patience with Michael wavered a time or three along the way. He is a supreme alpha British male, who has no compunctions about pushing his love interest to the edge of heartbreak more than once. If you’re in the mood for a passionate read with a dash of angst, Tame should scratch that particular itch.
Tame was my first book by Colet Abedi and I absolutely love it. Riveting, romantic, and well-written, this story had me hooked from beginning to end and I was able to read it all in one sitting.
This was a slow burn but Colet was able to capture the anticipation between Michael and Abbey. She was able make the reader feel the intense chemistry that they had between them, a chemistry that just sizzled off the pages of the novel.
I loved Michael. Throughout the entire book he was swoon-worthy. Its so understandable why Abbey was in love with him her entire life.
This novel was sweet and sexy with lots of steamy scenes. It was a phenomenal read and I would highly recommend it.
