Until I met Sofia Romano almost 10 years later. I fell hard for this woman. Would die for this woman. But she left me. Now, years have passed, and Sofia needs a husband. Her father is gone, and her mother is trying to marry her off to a man that can protect their family, protect their company. Now, it's my chance to have the only woman I've ever loved...and I'll make sure she feels the same way.

Bought. Conditioned. Sold to the enemy. My name is Blaire. I'm head of security to a man who controls the Russian underworld in Europe. His name is Maksim and he's my master. He bought me ten years ago and conditioned me with brutality to worship and protect him. And I have protected him. I've slain everyone who has tried to do him harm. Everyone but a man he loans me to; a man who threatens to break me and everything in which I believe.

Edward Fasbender is a devil. He's my father's biggest rival. He takes what he wants, and he bows to no one. And now Edward Fasbender wants me. I didn't expect to want him back. Having him is not in the cards, not when a union with him would destroy my father. But that doesn't mean I can't play with him a bit. Except, I've never played against such a ruthless opponent. Edward is cold and vicious, and my blood has never run hotter. They say you should choose the devil you know, but I've always preferred long odds. Even if it'll get me slain.

For a limited time only -- get all three books in The Scotch Series in one boxset
The Scotch King
Joseph Ingram made the mistake of stealing from me - four million dollars. He took my intelligence without paying for it. And thought he could get away with it. Think again. Now I’ll take something from him - something irreplaceable. His sister. Collateral. But even when Joseph doubles the amount of money he owes me, I don’t give her up. Nope. I have an image to maintain. So I keep her. And I’m not giving her up.
The Scotch Queen
I wasn't sure what changed my mind about giving London to Bones, but something did. Now London is officially mine. She's sassy, feisty, and she still tells me off when I have her under my thumb. I love it. Now I have a deal with the Barsetti brothers, Josephine is still pining for me, and revenge is heavy on my mind. I'm not sure what to do with London now that I'm not gonna kill her. But I'm certainly not going to fall in love with her.
The Scotch Royals
London is a lot more useful than I anticipated. She gets me what I need like a pro. With her by my side, I feel like I can do anything. My need for revenge is dimmed. My anger is contained. But her brother is still a problem. She wants me to let him go. I'm not sure if I can.

I need one thing from you: get out of the army and get to Telluride. My little sister Ella’s raising the twins alone. She’s too independent and won’t accept help easily, but she has lost our grandmother, our parents, and now me. It’s too much for anyone to endure. And here’s the kicker: there’s something else you don’t know that’s tearing her family apart.

I moved to Paris for my study abroad program and ended up staying, getting a French literature degree, studying the classics while sipping the best wine I'd ever had. My sister never makes the best decisions, always makes messes to clean up, and it's finally time for me to have my own life. But when she comes to Paris for a visit, she brings trouble with her. She gets herself into a bad situation, and, of course, I come to her rescue. Now we're in a labor camp in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by snow and mountains, processing drugs for a group of men who never show their faces.

My husband of two years tells me he wants an open marriage. I'm stunned. I'm hurt. And I'm livid. I don't want to be married to a man who wants to open our bed to other people. But then I get a flat tire in the pouring rain and a sexy-as-hell gentleman helps me out. My husband is in the game, so one look at the skull ring on this gentleman's left hand tells me exactly who he is. The Skull King. I didn't want an open marriage… but I definitely want this man.

LOVED THIS STORY
I REALLY enjoyed this saga! Crew and London are made for each other! It was a relationship started in all the wrong ways but with their special connection..... they found a way to rebuild and restart it the right way! I've only been finished for 2 minutes and I am already having book hangover. Couldn't stop listening, barely slept just so I could power through it and see what happened! Narrotors both new to me, and both did a great job!

Excellent!!
I loved the first book, Scottish King. I was sad it was over but happy to begin the next. So many not so good reviews I don’t understand. The main characters are so perfectly understood. The sub characters have great places in the plot. The sex is hot, not over done at all. Loving everything about this book! Off to enjoy the second!

Absolutely Loved this Series!
I fell in love with Crew ( not sure of spelling since I listened on Audible) immediately with his dark, dangerous and sexy vibe. London was the perfect match for him with her feistiness and no nonsense attitude. There were so many ups and downs, smiles and definitely tears. Lots of amazing hot sex scenes. This is a Penelope Sky series so that's expected. This box set is definitely worth a credit!

Mixed Review ***Maybe SomeSpoilers?***
I'd like to preface this review by saying that I don't like to leave negative reviews. Period. That being said, this is my first reading of anything by Penelope Sky. I can't say that I was enthralled by the series, but I was intrigued. I love reading about strong women and the men who fall for them. Wrapped into a bow is the fact that this is a "Stockholm syndrome" series, and you get blood, lust, sex, pain, and whatnot, I was able to complete it. The narration was to be commended, though there were a few mistakes on their parts. Mostly, misreading for the other character, but I'd never heard Michael before, and he was fresh to the ears. Sam was great as usual.
Again, I don't leave negative reviews. I did like the series, not my favorite, but I did like it. How old was London? Because sometimes her inner monolog led me to believe she was super young. Like maybe 19 or 20. Just questions her maturity factor, though she is compassionate and empathetic toward the end of the series for Ariel.
This book is categorized as being billionaire suspense/romantic with notes of eroticism. There was nothing erotic about their sexual escapades, except for the time he took her in her a$$. They just had lots of sex. There were some hot sex scenes, though.
I will chance another series and maybe a stand-alone from Penelope. I think it would be harsh to dismiss an author's hard work for one mishap. There were some things I didn't quite agree with, but this story is her imagination and I was privileged to read a piece of it.

Plot AMAZING
The story has AMAZING plot and so much spicy scenes! Usually when there is too much spice it takes away from the plot of the story but this series was not like that at all! Gave it a 4 star with performance just because it took me some getting used to the voices but honestly not that bad! Just not what I’m used to hearing! Worth every minute though!

Writer of the book out Done Themselves 👏👏 very well written. lots of suspense. At 1 point I thought things were going to be cruel.🤯 I was scared to death for the girl. Would be a hell of a position to be put into. I'm in the 2nd book now. I just thought I would come back and write a review for the 1st book. Such great writing for 3 books for just one credit wow thank you so much.😍😍👌👌👌

I read this a while ago but thought I’d pick up on audible for a way to hear the story again. After reading all of the Buttons-related books, it was great to go back to characters before Button began.
