DETAILS
Synopsis
|
‘We’re from KMW. Do exactly as you’re
told and you won’t get hurt...' Being grabbed off the street, blind
folded, tied up and thrown into a van was not what Izzy expected to happen
when she stepped out the door that morning. But when an accidental kidnapping
at the hands of the sexy Ethan Chase and his 'Kidnap My Wife' sexual fantasy
business leads to just that, Izzy seizes the chance to turn her misfortune
into a brilliant new job opportunity… Since then, life has been one big
tangle of new client meetings, fake kidnapping pick-ups, and handling the
temperamental, but drop dead gorgeous 'bad boy' Mr Chase. But, as liberating
as being tied up in Ethan's life is, Izzy knows the time is fast approaching
when she must make some decisions and take charge of her future. The only
question is: will Ethan allow himself to be a part of it? |

Quote(s)
|
1.
I prefer to judge people on the type of
person they are now, not who they were in the past. We all have a history,
ours is hardly squeaky clean. 2.
It comes down to trust. That’s why we
only do this with husbands and wives. The theory being the wife knows the
husband and trusts him completely. When you trust the person you’re with,
being tied up and blindfolded can be hugely erotic. 3.
I had a similar issue when my family
first came to this country. I wont go into details but prejudice is one thing
you cant fight against easily. You can tell a lot about a man from how he
treats the woman he’s with. 4.
Izzy made him want to be a better
person and he liked that. 5.
The women Ethan dated lived in a
different world to Izzy, a world where sex appeal came miles before
practicalities and comfort. 6.
Well he could stick his apology up his
ass, she was fed up of being treated like this. She deserved to be with
someone who wanted to be with her, without any doubt in their mind, not
someone who ran screaming for the hills every time any hint of commitment was
mentioned. 7.
He didn’t get to keep playing with her emotions
like this and then pick her up again a few hours later. 8.
Is that what happened when he left
behind a trail of women, they made up bitchy lies to make themselves feel
better about being dumped? 9.
‘What is his company anyway,’ said the
man’s voice he recognised. ‘I’m surprised the police haven’t shut him down. Sexual
fetishes, role play, rape fantasies, it’s sick.’ He surreptitiously peered
round the corner at the man that was talking. He nearly laughed out loud when
he saw it was one of his regular clients. The man had used Ethan’s services at least three times. 10.
I expect the rumours, lies and hatred
from other people, but I never expected it from you. If you think that little
of me, then we can end this now. 11.
He’s walked away from me three times, I
can’t take a fourth. 12.
He made me see what an idiot I’ve been.
If someone makes you that happy when you’re with them and this miserable when
you’re not, then you grab hold of them and never let them go, regardless of
what anyone says… I’m not saying it will be easy but you at least give her
all the facts and then if she decides to stay with you, you weather the
storms together. |

Reading Experience

I must say the way the writer writes
the story is quite boring. I do appreciate the part where there is not much
of sexual part being written.
Now, the part where s/he pushes the
other away: First time: him pushing her away – kids
being brought up. Second time: her pushing him away – expect
there’s another person in their relationship. Second time: him pushing her away – don’t
want her to be tainted by the family reputation. When is the third time?
Lastly, I love the endearment Ethan has
for Izzy! Honey, sweetheart, dear… that’s really sweet of him! Good that he
finally admitted that he loves her. I just wished that the wedding is being
written. I sure hope to see there’s children between them! |

Three Most Important
Concepts in This Book
|
1.
Never spread rumours as you don’t know how
it will affect one’s life. 2.
Ask your partner if this is the right
way to deal with the relationship. Do not assume what’s best for the
counterpart. 3.
Love, may come when you least expected
it. |
