Summary
She'll soon learn what happens to naughty girls。
Charlie
We shared one dance， the Beast and I。
I can still feel his huge hands on my body。
When I saw something suspicious， I had to investigate。
I found out just what a beast he is。
He punished me in the back alley for spying。。。
Leaving my lips swollen and my skin burning。
I should steer clear， never see him again。
But something out of my control binds the two of us。
He takes me captive， dragging me to his castle。
I want to resist him。。。
But my body demands I give into his wicked ways。
He leaves me filled with shame and desire for more。
I know exactly how much danger I'm in， but does he？
Beast
Did she really think I wouldn't catch her？
I used her for my pleasure， putting her on her knees。
After that， I couldn't stop thinking about her。
She wants nothing to do with me。
Too bad。
It's out of her hands now。
I will take her to my house。
I will keep her there。
I will make her mine。
I'll do everything I can to protect her but Beasts don't fall in love。

CHOSEN FAMILYThe story is a great addition to the Bachman sagas。 This story takes place in America and will bring the widow， Charlie Bachman， and Nikolaos ‘Beast’ Bachman together。 From the time they danced at another event， it seems that they can’t get the other off their mind。 But Charlie isn’t looking for a relationship， believing she is cursed and is not willing to take the chance。 “This Beauty has no business getting tangled up with a Beast like him。”The Bachman men may be mafia， but they d CHOSEN FAMILYThe story is a great addition to the Bachman sagas。 This story takes place in America and will bring the widow， Charlie Bachman， and Nikolaos ‘Beast’ Bachman together。 From the time they danced at another event， it seems that they can’t get the other off their mind。 But Charlie isn’t looking for a relationship， believing she is cursed and is not willing to take the chance。 “This Beauty has no business getting tangled up with a Beast like him。”The Bachman men may be mafia， but they do more good than anything questionable。 And when it comes to the Beauties， they are protected women—even after they are widowed。 When Nikolaos catches Charlie spying on him at a party， he decides it is time to take her to task。 The chemistry is explosive between them， but she still holds back， not wanting to have a relationship。 Things will change， Nikolaos will bring her to Dark Island， and Charlie’s penchant for being nosey will have her learning secrets that could be dangerous for her—as well as others。 What will happen between these two？ Caught between passion and desire， and duty plays a vital role in their lives。 “He orchestrates every single moment of our sexcapades。 He’s in control and I’m powerless and that’s the way he likes it。 If I’m being honest， it’s the way I like it too。 I’m beginning to crave his dominance。”The story has plenty of angst and passion。 The chemistry between them oozes off the pages。 It is always fun to see how the Bachmans handle whatever comes their way。 It was fun seeing the private Bachman ceremony。 While the story is part of an ongoing saga， it will read well as a stand-alone。 There is power exchange with discipline and explicit scenes。 The story has moments of life and death danger， secrets， revelations， passion， and new beginnings。 While it does not end on a cliffhanger， it does have a setup for one of the characters in this tale， in the next story。 。。。more

What a journey and finding your place where you belong and just letting go。 I loved Nikolaos and yes his teddy bear ways。 He showed Charlie all of himself and how worthy she is to be loved and belong。 The emotions are high in this one， trust and of course hotttt， always from these Bachman guys。 I love this world it just comes to life with so much respect for their women。

Charlie finally gets her happy ever after in this amazing love story！ As always Shanna Handel has my praise with yet another amazingly written Bachman story！ This had a cute little twist in it as it is a nice little retelling of beauty and the beast。 I absolutely enjoyed reading about the Beast， Nikolaos Bachman， as he was seen in the previous book and he was definitely a topic being talked about by the beauties。 Might I add we were all making bets about how big the beast truly is， if you catch Charlie finally gets her happy ever after in this amazing love story！ As always Shanna Handel has my praise with yet another amazingly written Bachman story！ This had a cute little twist in it as it is a nice little retelling of beauty and the beast。 I absolutely enjoyed reading about the Beast， Nikolaos Bachman， as he was seen in the previous book and he was definitely a topic being talked about by the beauties。 Might I add we were all making bets about how big the beast truly is， if you catch my drift lol！ 😏 I felt like the spice was turned up in this and it was a 5/5 🌶 for me！ Charlie， after being widowed not once but twice， really had some trust issues and I could not blame her。 But truthfully the amazing connecting her and the Beast had， it was too hard for her to resist him。 I enjoyed that Charlie was able to overcome her "curse" and I enjoyed reading the Beast having patience with her and proving her wrong in this "curse" she thought she had on her。 Every Bachman book I read I fall deeper in love with the Bachman men！ If you have not read the Bachman series yet I suggest you pick it up and fall head over heels in love with these men！ 。。。more

What a wonderful little play on the Beauty and the Beast story。 This time though， it is the Beast’s job to save the Beauty。 The Beast is a Bachman， Nikolaos by name， and the Beauty is Charlie， who is also a Bachman， a widowed one。 For those who have not read a Bachman story yet， they are a Mafia family and every so often Ms。 Handel reminds us that， as with all mafia families， violence and death happen。 The Bachmans are the Robin Hood of mafias， taking from other rich and/or criminal mafias to he What a wonderful little play on the Beauty and the Beast story。 This time though， it is the Beast’s job to save the Beauty。 The Beast is a Bachman， Nikolaos by name， and the Beauty is Charlie， who is also a Bachman， a widowed one。 For those who have not read a Bachman story yet， they are a Mafia family and every so often Ms。 Handel reminds us that， as with all mafia families， violence and death happen。 The Bachmans are the Robin Hood of mafias， taking from other rich and/or criminal mafias to help the less fortunate。 Unfortunately this sometimes results in reprisals that results in violence and death to members of the family。 Charlie has been twice bitten by deaths and she fears she is cursed。 Nikolaos does not believe in curses and is determined to overcome her relationship reluctance。 This is a beautiful love story woven into a clandestine intrigue on a private island featuring a castle。 The visuals that Ms。 Handel writes into the reader’s mind are absolutely breathtaking。 I can never get her next book soon enough as I know it will complete entertain me， on all levels， just as this one did。 A truly sensational read。 5 StarsI received and advance copy of this book from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review。 。。。more

I never wanted a story to end as much as I didn’t want this one to end。 I loved every second of this story。 I loved how Charlie got a second or third chance at finding forever love。 She tried to stay away from Nikolaos aka The Beast but their connection chased all the warnings in her mind away。 He has an important mission for the brotherhood that must be kept secret but the men forgot about how curious women can be。 Nikolaos would do anything for her。 Will they be able to get to their happily ev I never wanted a story to end as much as I didn’t want this one to end。 I loved every second of this story。 I loved how Charlie got a second or third chance at finding forever love。 She tried to stay away from Nikolaos aka The Beast but their connection chased all the warnings in her mind away。 He has an important mission for the brotherhood that must be kept secret but the men forgot about how curious women can be。 Nikolaos would do anything for her。 Will they be able to get to their happily ever after？I received an ARC from the author/publisher for an honest review。 。。。more

Another wonderful read from the Bachman brothers and their Beauties and all hat this involved。The Beast had become quite the conversation piece between the Beauties who all thought that the Greek brother was simply amazing in a physical sense and all wanted to know if the title “Beast” would actually apply to all of him。Charlie had always been the Beautie that everyone came to when they needed help， a shoulder to cry on or a simple word of wisdom， she had been through so much having lost one Fia Another wonderful read from the Bachman brothers and their Beauties and all hat this involved。The Beast had become quite the conversation piece between the Beauties who all thought that the Greek brother was simply amazing in a physical sense and all wanted to know if the title “Beast” would actually apply to all of him。Charlie had always been the Beautie that everyone came to when they needed help， a shoulder to cry on or a simple word of wisdom， she had been through so much having lost one Fiancé that had been an attempted murderer， he had been killed instead。 Also there then had been her husband that had been killed whilst diving on their honeymoon， leaving her a widow once again。Ten years later and she has never dated another man believing herself cursed but the one man that has broken through her reserve is Nikolaos and he is very taken with Charlie， she moves him into his protect and care mode and he is able to recognise the kindness of her nature and soul， always the first of offer fresh cookies or a fresh baked casserole to welcome visitors to care for the Bachman family。After a major occurrence Charlie had been taken with the Greek Beast and had actually gone with him to his home on Dark Island， it was a wonderful castle and Charlie had been blown away by the delightful style of Nikolaos and the staff had all fallen in love with her， she was such a delightful individual it was impossible for any of them not to have fallen in love with her personality。This is a wonderful read and I guarantee that you will love every moment of this book and will like me be left looking forward to the next book in this simply amazing series……I assure you that you will love every moment of this book it is simply a fantastic read。I voluntarily received and review an Advanced Reader CopyI thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to reading any future publications; keep up all the great writing。 。。。more
