Beckett Anderson needs to control his world…

He has power, respect and a multi-billion-dollar empire, yet something is missing. Now, the man who has everything needs one last thing: someone to share it all with. Can he find someone willing to commit to a man who’s unable to love?

A chance encounter and an impromptu business proposal could be the solution they are both looking for, until two pink lines destroy their illusion of control…

Excerpt

“Don’t expect romance and declarations of love from me. It’s not who I am. If you agree to this, there won’t be anyone else, for either of us. I was never good at sharing when I was young, and I’m worse now. I can’t let you agree to this unless you understand that you’ll have my body, but I don’t have a heart to give you.”
“Keep it. Giving away something you can’t live without leaves you to wither and die. I know, I watched it happen to my mother, and I will never be like her.”
“So, are you willing to give this a try?”
I looked at him, really looked at him. Could I keep my heart safe? Already he’d shown me glimpses of someone possibly as broken as I was under his polished veneer. He was dangerous to me because he might tempt me to do the one thing I’d always avoided, fall head over heels.
God help me. I thought I’d evaded temptation in the past. I’d run from every boyfriend who threatened to make me feel anything more than lust. Maybe, knowing he wasn’t going to fall in love with me would be the difference. We could fight off the loneliness together, and guard our hearts at the same time. It had to work because I didn’t think I had the strength to say no to him. No, that wasn’t exactly true. I didn’t want to walk away from him, and that scared me more.
“Yes. I want to give this, whatever this is, a try.”

My Thoughts <3

I really enjoyed reading Beck and Call! This is my first book by the author, but thought that the story was well laid out with some pretty cool bombs dropped in there! I will say that it took me a couple of chapters to really relate to the characters, but once I did, I was in deep!

When you have two people that are extremely independent and not looking for anything serious, of course there will be some head butting. These two both have had hard times and not an easy go of it. When Beckett offers Evie a chance to better herself, she would be a fool not to take it. What she wasn’t expecting was to connect with this alpha man!

All in all, the book had a great plot and I liked how things played out. I wish I was able to connect to the characters faster, but that could just be my own weirdo self coming into play! If you are looking for a book that shows compromise and surprises, I recommend you check it out- 4 stars from me!

PS: Thank you to Kimberly Carrillo and Give Me Books PR for allowing me an advanced copy of the book to read and review honestly!
