Sienna Jensen had no plans to return home when she graduated college last spring—after all, her dreams lie in California. But when she discovers her grandmother’s Nashville home has been foreclosed, and the new owner has started the eviction process, Sienna has no other choice but go back to Music City. And she comes face to face with the flawed, gorgeous man she never thought she’d see again. The man who now holds the deed to her grandma’s estate.

When millionaire rock star Lucas Wolfe finds the outspoken redhead glaring at him from across a courtroom, he’s both infuriated and intrigued. He still can't get the night Sienna almost spent with him out of his mind, and the chemistry between them is as undeniable as it was two years ago. He craves Sienna more than ever. And just like everything Lucas hungers for, he’s determined to have her.

Now, Lucas will do whatever it takes to lure Sienna into his bed, even if that means making a deal with her: ten days with him, playing by his rules, and he’ll hand over the deed to her grandmother’s home. Though she agrees to the arrangement, Sienna is conflicted. Because of her duty to her family. Because of promises she’s made to herself and a past that still haunts her. And as Lucas’s game of seduction continues, and Sienna is introduced to his dark, erotic world and even darker background, she realizes that at any moment, she could be devoured.

My Review:

 *I received this book by the author in return for an honest review*

I definitely liked this book, it was hard to put it down! The interaction between Sienna and Lucas is undeniable from the very beginning. Their pasts collide when Sienna gets a call from her house in Nashville. Her brother, Seth, tells her that their grandmother is losing her house and that she needs to be there as soon as possible. When Sienna finds out that millionaire rock star Lucas Wolfe is purchasing the house, she is beyond mad. But what she isn't expecting is to find herself working for the wolf himself, all to save the house her grandmother holds dear. 

I was impressed with how the story completely grabbed my attention from the very first page to the the last. Emily Snow has done an amazing job with her debut novel. I would, however, would have liked to see more of how they first met in this novel. It would have explained so many things that were still unclear throughout the book. The written flows, which made the story enjoyable to read. The characters have their own background stories, and although this novel is only about Sienna and Lucas, I would love to see more books about the other characters as well. 

Lucas's personality definitely made the book stand out. What I liked the most was seeing Sienna's personal growth at the very end. The characters are very well developed and I will completely recommend this book to everyone to give it a try.
