Hold Tight by Alexa Riley Review
4.5 SMOOCHES!
SYNOPSIS:
New York Times and #1 ebook bestselling author Alexa Riley returns with Hold Tight, the next novella in the For You series
A hotshot consultant hired to streamline Osbourne Corp. meets his match in Pandora Justice—the more she plays hard to get, the more he wants her.
They say that like recognizes like, and the day I looked into her deep blues, I met my other half.
Pandora Justice took over as head of security at Osbourne Corp. after her father’s retirement. Eighty-hour workweeks are normal; being brushed up against by hot consultants with ridiculous names is not. And she doesn’t like it. Not even one bit.
It’s amazing how easily she can lie to herself.
I had to have her. Plain and simple.
The first time Pandora sees Royce in the ring—all tattoos and sinew, covered in sweat—he looks at her like he’s just won more than the fight. Like he won her.
I won’t play games with her. I’ll wait, and it will kill me, but I’ll do it for her.
Royce’s cocky grin with deep dimples makes Pandora melt. Once she wanted to smack that look off his face—now all she wants to do is kiss it. For the rest of her life.
The thought of spending the rest of my life with Pandora warms the place in my chest I didn’t think was alive. I’ve put my claim on her—she’s the one, and I’m done. It’s that simple.
REVIEW:
For me, curling up with one of Alexa Riley’s steamy, instalove novellas is one of the ways I get away from it all. It’s pure escapism reading, and I’ll be honest, I can use that once in a while. Over-the-top obsessed all alpha male doing whatever it takes—and I do mean whatever—to get the (virgin) girl of his dreams? Yes please! This talented author duo was made to write this genre. I suppose my inner feminist should be screaming in protest at this repeated choice of reading material, but she’s silent. It’s a fantasy, and it’s totally okay to lose yourself in the heat of the moment with a bit of fictional fun.
Romantic, sweet and seriously hot, Hold Tight featured a strong heroine and an even stronger hero. I loved Pandora and Royce together. I loved how she didn’t just capitulate to him and gave him a run for his money—albeit a short run. This was a quick ready, full of sexy tension and lots of fight. I devoured it, and I enjoyed every single minute of it. Hold Tight by Alexa Riley gets 4.5 smooches from me!
