Because I Could Not Resist

The red-hot romance between Ian and Francesca was ignited in Because You Are Mine Part I—that which comes with the first look, the first caress. Now comes the first act of defiance that takes them one step further into forbidden desire.

A heated argument between Francesca and Ian leaves the impetuous young woman alone again, and free to do whatever she chooses, and with whomever she desires. She’s not about to answer to any one man—especially Ian. Until he catches her. As he takes her to his penthouse, the tension is incendiary. One thing is clear for both of them. Francesca must be punished.
Outraged and unbearably excited, the naïve Francesca loses whatever control she had. After all, Ian is too dominant a man to fight off. She did disobey him. She does deserve it. Francesca just never realized how much she wanted it. But when Ian discovers how naïve Francesca really is, he wonders if taking advantage of such innocence is going too far, even for him.

These books are becoming way too addicting. Once I got to the last page on my Kindle (and of course it was getting perfect)…Beth Kery leaves me hanging again. GRRRRR!!!
Seriously…NO!!
Thank goodness, I’m reading these short ebooks while they’re already out otherwise I would’ve pulled my hair out waiting for the next installment.
Ian is one sexy, rich, over-bearing, dominant man who is seriously getting too jealous over Francesa when he shouldn’t care who she hangs out with or lives with, but for some reason, everything about her intrigues him.
Francesca knows that Ian is becoming bad news and that she should focus on the artwork that she is doing for him, but he is addicting.
During this installment, Ian punishes Francesca for almost doing the unthinkable. He even gets mad at her roommates for nearly letting her go through with it. Ian though finds out something about Francesca that makes him want to stop what he has with her before it goes too far.
Unfortunately, though there is no stopping the attraction between Ian and Francesca in this novella.
Oh…how I’m glad I waited until every installment is out to read these. I think I would be one of those impatient readers who drove my family crazy at home until the next installment finally released.
Thank you, Beth Kery for these short ebook stories of Ian and Francesca.
I love how she leaves us hanging at the end and those sex scenes…let’s say lots of cold showers after you read them.
Now onto the 3rd installment because I need me some, Ian. =)

Owner/Reviewer at A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog

I guess I should type a bio here. I'm FranJessca, or Fran for short. I'm the owner/reviewer behind A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog. I've been reading and reviewing books on my blog since leaving the Navy in 2011, and I will keep doing it as long as possible. My favorite genres will always be Romance & Fantasy, and I read every subgenre underneath those two genres. (Sorry, not a fan of nonfiction, so don't try to convince me to read it.)
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
