Captor becomes lover…
I’m a marksman. Mobster. Deadly assassin.
My job is to protect my brotherhood, but that isn’t my only responsibility.
I’m Kieran Hendry, the up-and-coming leader of The Order, and a new duty calls. I must take a wife.
A wife I don’t know.
A wife born into a position at the top of The Fellowship hierarchy.
A wife who will forge a strong alliance between her brotherhood and mine.
A wife I don’t want.
I knew next to nothing about Westlyn Breckenridge when I abducted her, but I quickly discover that she’s intelligent, strong, defiant, selfless. And beautiful.
One night with her is all it takes for me to see that she is no typical Mafia princess. I’m hopeful this arranged marriage won’t be the miserable union I imagined it to be. But convincing my intended to give us a chance won’t be easy when she sees me as the enemy. The brute who kidnapped her. The vile fiend who threatened to do as he wished with her body.
It’s true. I am all those things. I had cruel intentions. But everything has changed. My affection for her is unexpected. My love, unintended.

Gah, as much as I love the previous books, there’s a special place in my heart for Kieran and Wes. I love them so much! So Unintended is going back to its roots. It’s about duty and following orders. I love the writing flow of Unintended, because its lighter (not that the book is light) and it’s a little over the top (not that I have anything wrong with that) and it’s filled with romance (borderline cheesy, but I LOVE THAT STUFF).
I Love this series and I never want it to end. Yes, bring lots of people into this world and tell me all of their stories PLEASE! Never stop writing about all the wonderful people.
Kieran must choose a bride, it’s his duty and he has three girls to pick from, but he only wants Westlyn. The thing is, Westlyn doesn’t know this. So, he kidnaps her. Don’t you love the storyline? I was gobbling this up like MAD. I had a smile on my face from the first sentence to the last.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Kieran and I love Westlyn.
Westlyn is your total damsel and she’s in a prickly situation. I enjoyed reading Westlyn because she’s so different from the other girls. She’s compliant and malleable. She isn’t naive, but very innocent. She’s scared and I love her reaction to Kieran.
Kieran understands what he must do and he relishes it and why wouldn’t he? Westlyn is the girl of his dreams and more. Kieran is the over-the-top alpha male brute I love reading in romance novels. I also love that he is the Assassin, he kills but with remorse.
The relationship between Kieran and Westlyn is explosive and tension filled. I love the banter between the two and it adds just enough interest where I couldn’t stop reading.
I also love the side characters, it should be noted this story takes place at the same time as the previous book (Endurance). I can’t wait to read Lorana’s book, although I really can’t wait for Shaw’s book and there better be Shaw’s book or I’ll be at Georgia Cate’s doorstep begging for it.
Overall, I didn’t know what to expect from Unintended, but it was a happy surprise. I’m always surprised with Georgia Cate’s writing and I want the next book ASAP!

EXCERPT
Kieran Hendry makes me feel like a woman. A desired woman. His words, the way he looks at me, his body language. Everything he does is a huge turn-on. Yet I hate this man. Loathe him. But damn, he has a way of touching me that makes me forget every logical thought in my head. It doesn’t make sense to me how I can despise him and at the same time respond so strongly to his touch.
It’s my body reacting to him, not my head. It must be hormones and sex drive. Those two things combined have the power to make people do things they wouldn’t normally do.
“You’re trembling.” He grazes the back of his fingers down my cheek and my stomach does some kind of flip. “Do I frighten you?”
I look away because I can’t tell him that it isn’t fear giving me the trembles.
He grasps my chin and forces me to look at him. “Do. I. Frighten. You?”
“No.”
He rubs my bottom lip with his thumb. “Then what is it?”
I shake my head.
He leans in for another kiss but stops before his lips touch mine. We’re so close I can feel his breath on my mouth. Just like last night when my body turned to mush.
I’m quivering and my breath has become more rapid. I may even be a little lightheaded.
His bottom lip grazes mine, but he still doesn’t kiss me. “I’ll back off right now if it’s what you want.”
I don’t want him to back off. I also don’t want him to know that I don’t want him to back off. Feels too much like giving in to something I’m not supposed to crave.
“I’m going to kiss you.”
I’m his captive. We made an agreement. I must submit without a fight per our deal to maintain Ellison’s safety.
Yeah. Keep telling yourself that, Wes. Maybe if you say it enough, you’ll start to believe it.
His fingers lace through my hair and he holds me prisoner when he lowers his mouth to mine. I open, giving his tongue an invitation to come inside. The two meet, and together they become erotic dance partners with Kieran taking the lead.
I’ve only had one very forgettable kiss in my life. But this kiss… I could live a million years and never forget it or the way I feel right now.
He stops, his lips hovering over mine. His breath warm against my skin. “More or stop? Your decision.”
He’s asking me to venture further with him. My body says yes, but my head tells me that one more step will take me to a place I shouldn’t go with this man. I’m twenty-three and being kissed for the second time in my life. I don’t want this to stop. “More.”
