As if living a nightmare, one horrible night Allie is attacked, and Alex comes rushing to her rescue. He wonders if he is really needed when he finds a little hellcat fighting off her attacker. Much later that night, Alex holds that little hellcat in his arms. Months later, he runs into Allie again, and he barely recognizes her. She's no longer the shy little wallflower she had once been. Problem isÂ…she doesn't seem to want to have anything to do with him. Allie's about to find out that he's the only man guaranteed to make her wildest dreams come true. Melina had lived her life in her older, selfish twin's shadow until the final deceit forced her to refocus on her own life. But the past has not been forgotten by Luc Jardin. Now, kidnapped and at the mercy of a man with a grudge, Melina must learn to accept the past as well as her attraction to the arrogant rancher. Just as Luc must learn to accept that, sometimes, things are not always as they seem | | | |

Well Done Apr 16, 2010 Both these stories were well done and satisfying. I liked Shiloh Walker's story a little more because of the transformation of Allie and Alex's response. Lora Leigh's story was good but i never got why Melina's brother didn't tell Luc that she was Maria's sister. Both these stories held my interest and I would recommend them.

Cops and Cowby fun! Sep 02, 2009 Cops and Cowboys, let's admit it, ladies, are some of the best fantasy-making men. At least to me. If you fall into this category as well, this will probably be a great read for you. I really, really liked it and thought it was toe-curling fun! Read it along with another good one---Rough, Raw and Ready (Rough Riders).

wow May 02, 2009 i just love a good book but this was the best it got me hooked on lora leigh's books
Ooo-La-La Dec 07, 2008 I bought this because of Lora Leigh; I love her stories, and I wasn't disappointed. But I just found another author. Shiloh Walker was a great surprise. I am definitely going to look for more stories from this author. There's nothing sexier than a man who know what he wants and goes after it.

Smoldering hot, but with a few reservations Dec 06, 2008 I have mixed feelings about these 2 novellas. On the one hand they're sexy and I enjoyed reading them. On the other hand each had a plot element I disliked and I really don't like when the hero screws the heroine's sister, sister-in-law or whatever.
Her Wildest Dreams by Shiloh Walker
I loved how Allie the mouse had all these secret kinky fantasies and how she broke out of her shell. It's always the quiet ones! Alex was a perfect match for her - sexy, rough and dominant. Their sex scenes were scorching hot, no holes (er holds) barred, and hit all my personal buttons :-) These 2 really belong together and Shiloh convinces us there's genuine love here, not just sexual compatibility. (Warning: this is not for the faint of heart, Allie and Alex indulge in everything up to and including forced sex fantasies). If it was just for the wonderful romance and sex, I'd give this hot little number 6 stars. However I had 2 issues here.
1) Allie has sex with another man after having sex with Alex. I hate this in romances when the hero does it, and when the heroine does it it's no better. I understand that Allie felt rejected by Alex after their night together. I understand her going to Ireland and flirting with another man while "finding" herself. But sleeping with a stranger she's known for just a few days? When she was a virgin just a couple of weeks ago? Calling out his name in orgasm? I really didn't need to read these details.
2) Alex has had threesomes with Allie's brother Mike and Mike's wife Lori. Ugh!! I've read the prequel Good Girls Don't, Mike and Lori's story (it's only available in e-book but you won't miss anything if you skip it). There are references to Mike and Alex sharing women in the past. But there is no scene or hint that they and Lori had a menage, on the contrary Mike snarled every time Alex admired Lori's butt or hinted at anything. (I love a possessive, snarling alpha man!). Is the author saying that after the end of Good Girls Don't, when Mike and Lori are a couple, they had a threesome? Way to posthumously ruin my enjoyment of that story. And even apart from that, it's creepy that Allie's true love is a guy who's had sex with her sister-in-law and brother.
Shiloh is one of my favorite romantica authors and I hate to be hard on her, but these 2 things seriously dampened my enjoyment of an otherwise sterling read. Still 6 stars less 2 stars is still 4 stars for this one.
Cowboy and the Captive by Lora Leigh
I've never been a big fan of Lora Leigh, maybe because I'm not a fan of paranormals or menages. I've heard she's writes very steamy sex, but the sex in this novella was nowhere near as hot as Shiloh's. Maybe the lack of threesomes or animal DNA left her uninspired. The sex scenes were ok, just a lot tamer than I expected from a woman-taken-captive-by-hot-rough-stranger-seeking-revenge story.
Nevertheless this revenge story did have a lot of potential, I just felt the storyline didn't go anywhere. The characterizations were problematic too. Melina was ok as a put-upon daughter finally putting her foot down, but by immediately being taken captive by the hero, she always seemed a victim instead of a strong woman. Luc was supposed to be smart and alpha, but by not doing his homework to make sure he had the right woman, and refusing to even believe there could be twins, he just came across as dumb and arrogant. Maria could have been painted with subtlety but the author wrote her with such a lack of nuance, she became a parody of a poster girl for a Just Say No To Drugs campaign. The parents were frankly unbelievable in the way they favored Maria above their other children. And my biggest peeve: a scene of the hero getting an expert BJ from the heroine's sister, in detail. Ugh! 3 stars.
