Rhiannon

Things change. Sometimes not for the better.

Xavier is no longer the maid’s son. Or my best friend. Now he’s wealthy and powerful–the dark don, in charge of one of the largest corporations in the world.

I never expected the boy who always saved me to be the man who kidnaps me.

Xavier

Some things never change.

Rhiannon is still as fiery and beautiful as the day I walked away. Now I’m back, ready to seek vengeance against the one man who wronged me. My rival. Her father.

If her father wants war, he’ll get a war.

Kidnapping his daughter is the key to my ultimate revenge.

~ My Thoughts ~

Before we begin let me start by sharing a few things ….  Without a doubt I am a book nerd.  I read a book cover to cover … From front to back … So when I read that this genre was not what Logan Chance has written in the past I was extremely surprised.

Taken was my introduction to this author and I am thrilled I took the chance to discover this fantastic author.

Taken sold me not only on this author’s ability to tell a story, but the fabulous way characters are brought to life with such ease.

The story centers around Rhiannon and Xavier two characters who wrapped themselves around my heart.

Rhiannon the young girl who obeys her father and cherishes time spent with her best friend Xavier.  Xavier the young boy who detests Rhiannon’s father and cherishes time spent with his best friend Rhiannon.  Rhiannon’s father, domineering, determined, sinister and evil he will stop at nothing to feel the sweetness of revenge on all who have wronged him.  Rhiannon’s mother, a shell of her former vibrant self, lives her life in the shadows hiding from the darkness and danger that lurk within the walls of her home. Xavier’s mother who works hard, keeps her thoughts to herself and is always a constant source of comfort.

Friends from a very young age Rhiannon and Xavier pledge that their friendship will be everlasting.  As years pass feelings grow and change.  Life hands out happiness, sorrow and surprises and that is the cornerstone of the story.

I think one of the many things that made this story so enticing was the way it was presented.  Characters talking to each other and the characters talking directly to the reader.

The storyline was fresh, unique and held all of the qualities I enjoy in a book.  Mystery, intrigue, suspense, passion, confusion and sex written with such brutal force it brought me to my knees.  For those of you who love alpha males well hell you are going to flip over Xavier.  This character takes holds of all of your senses and has you begging for more.  For those of you who love a female character who grows and develops into a strong woman who knows what she wants and is willing to do just about anything to achieve it, you will love Rhiannon.

Taken is an engaging story of family, deception, truths, lies, love and lust.  The story is filled with twists and turns you never see coming. Blend in a bit of taunting, teasing, blood, revenge and the willingness to never give up and you end up with story that you won’t want to put down.  Taking friendship to a whole new level Logan Chance has caught my attention and I plan to read anything and everything I can from this author.
