When Leya Brandon meets Court Gannon she's immediately attracted to the strong, laid back menace he exudes. When she finds out he's been lying to her, she tries to call it quits, but Court isn't having it. What he got wasn't enough - he wants Leya's unqualified surrender.

If pushy, overbearing, self-righteous men with a penchant for fixating on a particular woman and pressing until she gives in, and strong women who mysteriously buckle under and submit to that kind of alpha male are your cup of tea, then this book is for you.
Jayne Ann Krentz is one of my favorite authors but this is not one of her better books. Court moves a little to quickly, foolishly. Leya not as strong as other heroines. Still enjoyed the book.
