Book Description



Bound by need. Entwined in secrets…

Krystina

I had dreams and aspirations, none of which included a man by my side. Been there, done that. Then I forgot my cellphone, and all of my carefully laid plans went to hell.

He wasn’t supposed to be there when I fell. I wasn’t supposed to get lost in a sea of sapphire blue when he helped me up. And he wasn’t supposed to be Alexander Stone, the New York billionaire real estate tycoon.

I saw the dark promises in his eyes when he looked at me. But the shadows of my past haunted me, making me afraid to explore the possibilities I could never before have imagined.

Alexander

I was used to getting what I wanted. I understood the value of finesse and patience to achieve the desired result. But a chance run-in with Krystina Cole quickly turned my world upside down.

She was strong, determined, devastatingly beautiful—and stubborn as hell. Her quick wit and firecracker attitude was the complete opposite of what I wanted in a woman. But I still wanted to claim her. Tame her. Make her mine.

And I always get what I want.

My Thoughts


I picked up Heart of Stone by Dakota Willink as a last-minute deal and to have something to read while on a trip. This book came highly recommended and I was so glad I took the chance.

When we first met Krystina she wasn't doing the job she went to school for, and she had been alone for some time after a bad relationship. So when she meets Alexander she thinks it's just lust that has her so taken with him. Till she she starts spending time with him then she begins to wonder if there could be more and if she can handle what he is offering.

Alexander has rules. He has boundaries that keep his life in order and keep him in control until he meets Krystina. She is everything he usually avoids and yet he is drawn to her. But can he convince her to accept his terms without wanting or needing more?

I loved Krystina and Alexander together. This book gave me 50 shade vibes but with better writing and better characters. I enjoyed seeing how these two characters slowly began to change each other while still desperately hanging onto what they felt were their core values. Plus the sex in this book was hot and spicy.

I liked we got to know the characters and got a story behind both of them and not just steamy sex. My only complaint was being left with a cliffhanger and having to buy the next book to continue the story. AS wonderful as the book is I would have preferred the entire story in one book and not spread out over several books.
