review 1: Out of Bounds is definitely a very hot and steamy novel. I did like the chemistry between Tarak and Sabra. Their struggle to fight their feelings because of their work relationship made the tension between them even more intriguing. I was hoping that they would have their HEA.The only thing I didn't like about the book was the attempted at a Dom/sub relationship. I felt like it was kind of a half attempt and was never fully developed. I think that the story would have been fine with out it. Tarak was a great alpha male and Sabra was a strong match for him. I felt like she was too strong willed to be a true sub.Despite that, I enjoyed this book and do recommend it. I hope that she will write Nartan and Celeste's book next!
review 2: Out of Bounds, Dawn R
... moreyderReview from Jeannie Zelos Book reviews. I have a weakness for the rich, controlling Alpha heroes...so this looked right up my street. Tarak didn't disappoint right from the start, he's totally in control, cares nothing for the opinions of others, and so self confident he just Knows anyone will do what he wants. So when Sabra gets to a corporate photo op unexpectedly, and he sees her there and wants her, he's astonished that she refuses his “invitation” sent via one of his staff, and leaves. He knows she was attracted. Ladies never refuse him, and it just makes him more determined to have her. Sabra is very attracted to him, but she's worked hard for her job, and takes it very seriously. She knows that the slightest hint that she's involved with Tarak, and her credibility will be shot to pieces. She can't afford, and doesn't want, to let her work go that way. Tarak though takes steps to cover all her arguments, makes her an offer that overrides her concerns, and they quickly get into a heated, erotic, sensual romance. For Sabra her heart is fully in, despite telling herself otherwise and that its just a fling and fun, but for Tarak, well he doesn't give his heart. He's done that and been burned, and vowed never again, but she doesn't give her heart lightly so where does that leave them...? Well, what great characters, and what sizzling, sensual, well written love scenes. And they were love scenes, very quickly having evolved from just sex, though Tarak couldn't see it and wouldn't admit it. A great read, but one thing let it down for me, and that's the downside. The bit that makes you greive for them, makes you want to cry..We got lots of working up to and enjoyment of the hot and heavy, but the sad part, where things go wrong, that was very quickly over and me – I like to wallow in that. Barely got a tear out and it was all over, and I need more – that then makes the make up so much sweeter and emotional. It's 240 pages in kindle, so long enough to get fully into characters, but a bit extra length for the break up and I'd have rated it higher. Stars: Four. ARC supplied by Netgalley less
