Review by Bluebell

Most women kidnapped on the eve of their wedding would be devastated, but not Sophie. She’s thankful for being rescued from marrying a millionaire she doesn’t love. Besides, her abductor is a gorgeous hunk who makes her feel anything but frightened. His masterful touch sends a river of fire through her blood that releases the vixen in her. She surrenders to an afternoon of passion, only to wonder when it’s over, how will she ever be able to leave Brent for the arms of another man?

Brent can’t believe he let Senator Adams talk him into kidnapping his daughter. Now he has a hellion on his hands, who’s as clever as she is beautiful. He tries to convince himself she’s not his type, but every time he touches her he can’t deny the rush of sensation that leads straight to his loins, then to his heart. Soon he begins to question; can he let her go when it’s over?

When Senator Adams gets disturbing vibes from her daughter, Sophie Adams’ reactions to her new fiancé, Jonathan Lord, he knew he had to do something. Strongly disapproving their courtship, he requests Brent Howard to step in and prevent the wedding from happening. Sophie finds herself being abducted on the eve of her wedding and strangely isn’t devastated at all. Can Brent figure it all out before his feelings for the feisty lady get out of hand?

Despite having a privileged existence, Sophie never came across as a spoiled party girl. She always acted sensibly and had a decent sense of loyalty. I just had to admire her spunk as she tried to thwart each and every one of Brent’s attempts to keep her quiet.

Brent is a man with whom you can fall in love with over and over again. He knows how to keep a woman on her toes and she wouldn’t be complaining at all. I found myself getting attached to both of them.

Though they meet in the most unusual circumstances and start clashing from the beginning, the transformation of their relationship from hate to love is a thrill to watch. The spark that ignites does a great job of keeping the reader interested in the story. Their verbal battles heightened the sensual pleasure. The plot moved at a fast pace offering very few surprises but the sheer thrill of the events has adrenaline coursing through the reader’s veins. I had my doubts about Senator Adams’ character but I soon learned to admire him as the tale progressed. By giving the couple’s romance a thrill factor, Ms. Wallace made sure that her readers have a hard time putting the book down to do other things that need to be done. Though the kidnapping went over easy for a woman having loads of fighting spirit, I still loved each and every minute of it. It is a quick entertaining read that doesn't make you think hard. The Senator's Daughter is one of the most satisfying reads I've had in a long time. Can't wait for more from Ms. Wallace!
