Marcos Ramirez is truly a "dark angel"! This Spanish alpha is to die for, he's angry, he's seeking revenge and yet he has a protective and extremely sexy side, he'll melt your heart.

Tasmin is misunderstood by the press and all of London. She's been deemed a wild heiress, a flirt and a spoiled beauty and actually she's none of these.....she's got a secret and she'll do anything that has to be done to protect a family member. When Tasmin is kidnapped by the "dark angel" she realizes she is indeed in trouble because if she doesn't follow her step brother's instructions to marry the nephew of the sheikh to save the family business, she'll not only be on the receiving end of his wrath she'll not be able to protect her ten year old sister from her families abuse.

Marcos is seeking revenge, revenge for the loss of his family due to the Winters family greed and that of Aziz the nephew of the sheikh. He kidnaps Tasmin and is seeking revenge and plans to ruin Aziz and Tasmin's brother's business. What neither of them counts on is their strong attraction for each other and in the end they act upon it and can't seem to stay away from each other.

When the time comes to set the revenge plan in motion, everything is turned upside down. You will be holding your breath during the last few chapters, trying to figure out the outcome. Trust me, it's thrilling, full of suspense and passion, pleasure and you'll be shedding some tears as well. It's a lesson for all to learn......leave the past behind and look towards the future and thanks to Jennie Lucas and The Spaniard's Defiant Virgin one will see how Marcos gives up revenge for love.

A quote from Mahatma Gandhi: "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind."

Marco's our alpha, sexy, rich male hero was hurt in the past because of Tamsin, but she had no idea. Marcos now a billionaire with a grudge is ready for some revenge on poor Tamsin. I could not put this book down, I think I read it in two hours on a Sunday and you won't be able to stop reading either. It had a very beautiful and romantic ending and I will read it again.

I LOVED IT good read wasn't expecting it to be good because i hadn't read this author's work before. *SPOILER* i don't think he ask her to marry him not sure, BUT who cares its still a good book i think personally

Books like this one is why i started writing reviews on HP--because they start out with so much promise and end up turning your stomach. This book is psychologically twisted on a number of levels and I'll leave it at that. I didn't complete reading it because the writer wasn't able to do something very important in a romance: create an emotional storyline with her words. I couldn't feel for either character and in fact the book made me angry for wasting my money. The plot sounded like a good idea, so two stars for the idea..the book didn't deliver.
