Revenge - sign me up.

A tale of miscommunication that has hurt both characters, one is taking revenge for what has happened, and we are along for the ride. There are sparks flying in this book and the tension between the two main characters is honestly so good. I like a book with an enemies-to-lovers trope and this one definitely fit this. I really also enjoyed the style of writing and will definitely pick up more from this author.

This story is hot, change that its HOT. Capitals is definitely needed in this instance. It was engaging my interest from the first word and had me addicted to it within a few sentences. I read it in one sitting and you may do the same thing. I mean it is so good, it has a bad a** female lead who knows exactly what she wants. Pair that with an insanely sexy guy who I'm surprised didn't melt the pages. I will definitely be on the hunt for more from Zara.

Part of M&B Dare Collection, Pleasure Payback is a novel about revenge. Two years ago Damian Mortimer had a great bedroom experience with Neve and then destroyed her business - she was about to expand her hotel chain and he makes the deal fall through. Now she is ready to exact her revenge. Her business has recovered and she is on tv with Damien on a Dragon’s Den type programme. Will they be able to control their sexual chemistry or will it get out of control???




I received this novel from Mills & Boon via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

Neve bought Damian a drink at the bar and he turned down her drink but took her to bed. Two years later they met again but Neve was out for revenge against Damian whom she felt has done her wrong. They have an intense chemistry which both of them found hard to resist. I got hooked from page 1. This is a really good read

Love love love!!

Super hot and sexy with some spice!

Neve meets Damien in a bar, the night before she expects to close a huge deal to expand her hotel chain and they spend an amazing night together

When the deal falls through and she finds out that Damien (business man extraordinaire) is behind it she is furious and vows to get revenge

Fast forward 2 years and Neve's hotel chain is flourishing and she is bought onto a TV show, UK readers think something similar to Dragons Den, when she will work closely with Damien but the heat between them is still there, can they overcome it or will things get out of control?

I really enjoyed this book, Neve and Damien fight bringing more chemistry and I found the ending quite satisfying. There is a good split between their voices and points of view making it easier to read and connect with them both

I found myself keeping on reading to find out what would happen between them!

I would defiantly recommend this book to those who enjoy a sexy read with some fight and a good story running through

This book opens up medias res – straight in the action. Damian and Neve meet in the bar of a hotel and as consenting adults take it upon themselves to enjoy one another’s company. I immediately liked the characterisation of both main characters. Damian was powerful and commanding, but tamed by Neve’s femininity and independence.

Damian and Neve are on equal footing in most respects, and I liked that about the story. Neve didn’t ‘need’ him to fix part of her life or to pay her bills – and they had a very steamy relationship mixed in with their hotel businesses.

This was a fun and steamy read!

This story starts hot and doesn’t stop sizzling, until its emotional climax. When Neve is on the eve of a business triumph, she allows herself a little personal celebration, whilst physically satisfying, it leaves her business in danger, and her pride in tatters, making revenge the only item on her agenda.

Meeting Damian Mortimer, two years later, she finds the physical attraction is still strong, but hopefully, she can use this to her advantage this time and make him pay. Damian is successful, rich and driven, but running from his emotions, as tries to justify his seemingly unforgivable behaviour to cousin Gideon. Neve, intended as a one time pleasure, is unforgettable, when they meet again he can’t resist her, but can his trust her?

Both protagonists are emotionally damaged but make up for this in their professional lives, both have a need to prove themselves, and trust issues, which threaten their chance of love. The romance is sensual and explicit but mirrored by a growing emotional connection and some truly romantic moments. Both characters are easy to empathise and the fast-paced plot is a page-turner. Do they get their ‘happily-ever-after? Well, this is Mills and Boon.

I received a copy of this book from Mills and Boon via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
