This story had me on edge and the seat of my pants the entire holy cow I am still reeling from it and my heart's pounding.

In her signature style, Jelinek chronicles the exploitative nature of relations between men and women, and the cruelties of everyday life. Working as a 911 operator gave her that feeling, but there was always something missing from her life. For investigators, who deal with the unearthing of frauds, they will gain from a better understanding of the motives behind these deceptive ploys, primarily greed.Greed is the story of vineyard princess Daniela and ruthless businessman Antonio, who is danger wrapped up in a handsome package.

I honestly don't think I could say anymore without it spoiling just how phenomenal this book truly was.This trilogy has that plot-point, sort of, but not really LOL I almost skipped out on reading this because of it, but I am so ridiculously glad that I did not.

I loved that while Antonio wanted Daniela to be like the submissive women in his circle, he also found her strength and grit attractive.

You don't want to poke this man in his side, as he's the villain that will not hesitate to dominate, punish, take whatever he wants.

Reading all of the little tricks, traps, and methods used by the ex-SAS men is part of what makes this such a great read.Not the brightest star on the planet either, as it's obvious who has betrayed the group after their mission but he and the others fail to see it.
