Brazilian Capture by Carmen Falcone

I was hooked on this series from book one, so when this title became available to request from Net Galley, it was automatic for me. I enjoy the Brazilian setting and the very tempting Brazilian hero, Emmanuel. Emmanuel knows he is doing something wrong, but he justifies it because he believes he is doing it for the right reasons. His simple plan is to kidnap Erika and trade her back to her father, but Erika is no quivering damsel in distress. She gives him flak from day one and keeps it up as he drags her all over Brazil. The connection between the two of them builds though it is primarily borne of sexual attraction at first. Eventually, they connect on a more emotional level, and Erika begins to seek the truth about her father and his business dealings. The only problem is how Emmanuel can accomplish his goal without destroying Erika in the process. 

Two forceful personalities, an exotic location, and tons of chemistry make this a great read. I would have loved a little action/danger mixed in with the suspenseful plot, but overall, I really enjoyed it.
