Game of Revenge by Stéphanie C

Amelia

Amelia had always felt trapped—subject to the whims of a fickle stepfather and hemmed in by a lavish lifestyle she cared nothing about. Until one night, she is taken hostage. With no notion of why she was abducted, Amelia bides her time and plans her escape. Just when she makes her break, the mysterious man she thought was her savior turns out to be the bad-tempered villain.

But as time passes, Amelia starts to see her new captor in a better light. With every look, every touch, he breaks down her defenses and gets dangerously close to her heart.

Alejandro

The rules were simple:
1. Negotiate her ransom.
2. Keep her safe.

Little did he know the brown eyed, strong-willed woman he was harboring would be his undoing. It was a mistake to let her in, she wasn't his to keep. But when danger ensues, Alejandro will stop at nothing to protect her.

As secrets and lies are revealed, Alejandro and Amelia must decide exactly how far they are willing to go. Because one wrong move in this Game of Revenge could cost them everything.

3 Heart Review by Ashley

Game of Revenge is my first book by Stéphanie C and I was all in after the way it opened. But from there, things slowed way down and I kept waiting for them to pick back up, but the intensity never quite picked all the way back up.

That being said, I liked Amelia. She was smart and strong and doing what she could to survive in the worst of situations. It didn't help that her captor was hot and cold towards her. Alejandro was hard to get a read on. Never quite sure what was true and a lie, it was enough to drive Amelia up a wall.

Somewhere between dinners and books and flying bullets, something changed. Yes, there was this pulsing chemistry just waiting for its chance to explode, but there was something more. And the harder they fought it, the worse it got. And with a plan in place, there was no stopping things once they were in motion.

While there were elements of danger and suspense, I wanted more of it. And more of them in the aftermath of everything. But at the end of the day, the wild ride Amelia and Alejandro took towards happy did keep me on my toes all the way through.

About the Author

My name is Stéphanie. I write angsty love stories with assertive female leads, who go toe to toe with alpha heroes. My love for romance stems from my teenage years, when I used to secretly read my grandmother’s harlequin books under the covers, coupled with spending every weeknight avidly watching telenovelas with my mother.

I have been writing romance books since I was a teenager, but not in English. Fast forward to a few years ago, I finally found the courage to pick my pen back up and write romance stories in English.

I grew up in the Caribbean and currently live in Illinois. My favorite pastime is spending time with my cat, a romance book in hand.
