Mikhail Lysenko, a tall, dark, and deadly corporate shark, is buying up ailing companies during the financial crisis worldwide, cherry-picking the best parts, and disposing of the dead wood.
Lindsay Carlisle is a sexy, long-legged, ruthless lawyer whose client is determined to hold out against a Lysenko take-over.
And when Mikhail’s laser business focus hones in on Lindsay and becomes personal, very personal, she doesn't know whether his interest is genuine or a means of undermining her client's case. Regardless, there's no way she’s going to be added to the list of women who’ve jumped into the sexy millionaire’s bed. Trying to resist Mikhail and keep work her priority is more than enough to deal with, but then someone begins anonymously sending Lindsay roses… black roses. As a love token? Or something more sinister? She may have to run into Mikail’s arms and allow him to save her from her secret admirer...
My Review 2 STARS

This was a very fast paced novella that read quick, however the story just seemed too fast for me.
Lindsay is a lawyer who has her interests compromised by Mikhail, especially as he decides once he has seen her that she just has to be his. The bear inside of him just claims her, there is just something about Lindsay that is different enough to catch his interest.
Mikhail is a very successful business man, a man who has dragged himself up the hard way, but he is also related to the Russian Mafia, not that he has anything to do with them.
With something weird happening around Lindsay's apartment, Mikhail's protective instincts rise and he protects her how he can, especially when things go south for Lindsay suddenly.
Although the ending was nice and wrapped up the story, it just did not sit right with me within the time frame.
A decent enough read otherwise though.
