About this ebook

New York Times and #1 ebook bestselling author Alexa Riley returns with Hold Tight, the next novella in the For You series

A hotshot consultant hired to streamline Osbourne Corp. meets his match in Pandora Justice—the more she plays hard to get, the more he wants her.

They say that like recognizes like, and the day I looked into her deep blues, I met my other half.

Pandora Justice took over as head of security at Osbourne Corp. after her father’s retirement. Eighty-hour workweeks are normal; being bossed around by handsome outsiders is not. And she doesn’t like it. Not even one bit.

It’s amazing how easily she can lie to herself.

I had to have her. Plain and simple.

The first time Pandora sees Royce in the ring—all tattoos and sinew, covered in sweat—he looks at her like he’s just won more than the fight. Like he won her.

I won’t play games with her. I’ll wait, and it will kill me, but I’ll do it for her.

Royce’s cocky grin with deep dimples makes Pandora melt. Once she wanted to smack that look off his face—now all she wants to do is kiss it. For the rest of her life.

The thought of spending the rest of my life with Pandora warms the place in my chest I didn’t think was alive. I’ve put my claim on her—she’s the one, and I’m done. It’s that simple.

This book is approximately 20,000 words

Another awesome quickie by the dynamic writing duo Alexa Riley! Pandora has been skirting around Royce since he first made his intentions obvious. She is certainly attracted to him but holds herself back from taking the next step. There is something about him that just doesn’t add up. When the truth is revealed, Royce’s inner beast surfaces and he makes his move. Too much, too fast? Possibly. As all AR books, this is a fast paced, quick read filled with instant lust, instant love and an over the top jealously protective hero. The steam factor is off the charts even if it doesn’t present itself until about half way through the story. And as always, the epilogue is enough to add an additional star rating because it made me swoon, smile and sigh. This is an honest review of an advanced copy provided by NetGalley and Carina Press. Dual POV Safe – uh, hello…Alexa Riley! No triggers

This was a nice, slow burn romance, with all the fireworks and commotion packed into the end. That isn't to say there isn't heat along the way, but it was a much more even pace than expected from the authour. It was still amazing, just unexpected Pandora holds herself tightly together, not letting anyone outside of her family near her. She doesn't need anyone else, she gets all she needs from her family. When Royce meets her, the depth of the feelings that hit her scares her, she's never had this kind of reaction before. Royce is blown away the moment he sees Pandora, and the more he gets to know her, the more he realizes she is the perfect woman for him for his forever. She is locked up so tight though, can he ever even get a chance with her? These two are strong willed, and evenly matched, but they need each other, and that isn't going to change no matter how hard they fight it!
