Blurb: Tristan Wilder, self-made millionaire and devastatingly handsome CEO of Wilder-Nation is on the verge of a very lucrative buyout. With tough negotiations ahead, he’s armed with his acquisition pitch, ready to launch the deal of a lifetime. There’s just one glitch. The last thing he expects is to fall for the hot business owner he’s trying to sway.
Dylan Reeves, computer science engineer and founder of the very successful social media site, Secret, is faced with a life-altering decision. A devoted family man with three kids and a wife, Dylan has been living a secret for years. Fiercely loyal to his convictions, his boundaries blur after meeting the striking owner of the corporation interested in acquiring his company. For the first time in his life, reckless desire consumes him when the gorgeous computer mogul makes an offer he can’t refuse.
Review: The idea of a social media platform such as Secret was more than exciting. Without spoiling the concept, I think Kindle should patent her idea!
When two very strong willed men come together for the purpose of business, and find themselves drawn into a lust filled, romantic, and forbidding situation, two different scenarios come to mind. In one, they fight, throw away the potential for a meaningful business and personal relationship. In the other, they overcome their differences and merge into a synergistic relationship that creates power – both in their personal and business lives. Kindle Alexander explored the obstacles as well as the potential for both of those situations. And she did it in a very erotic, intoxicating manner.
Again without spoiling the story, I found her approach to their business and personal lives, and how they collided in every sense of the word, to be addictive. Her words, the manner in which she helped me explore both Tristan’s and Dylan’s lives, and the erotic theme of the book drew me in. Frankly I read it in one sitting, not wanting to put it down.
Secret is worth reading and so are Kindle Alexander’s other books. I just finished Always and will report on that in a future post.
