Blurb ~ 

When this Dom falls hard, he will do anything to protect the woman he loves.
Elias St John has lived a life most people wouldn’t believe. An Aussie by birth, he has found his way to the Big Island working as the right hand man to Joe Kaheaku. When his boss dies and leaves the ranch to Eli and Joe’s niece Crysta Miller, Eli finds himself more than a little attracted to her.

After finding her fiancé in bed with another woman and helping her father through his illness, Crysta is ready for a new start. The offer of the ranch far away from home is perfect. The only problem she has is with Eli who constantly tells her what to do. When an argument turns into a passionate kiss, both of them get more than they were expecting.

Eli finds himself completely enthralled with Crysta as his submissive. As seemingly simple accidents turn deadly, Eli realizes that someone is bent on destroying the ranch by any means possible—even murder




Review~

I'm a HUGE fan of author Melissa Schroeder and her Harmless series so I could not help but be thrilled when her newest release, A Little Harmless Ride, recently came out. I could not wait to read Eli St John's story and find out the woman that would capture this sexy, Australian Dom's heart.

I was drawn to Eli right from page one and I could feel my chest tighten at the pain he endured. You could not help but hope he would find happiness but first, he would have to get through the loss of the man he considered family. The author did a great job conveying this character's raw emotions within a few pages and I couldn't wait to read what happened next.

I loved and adored Crysta Miller, the sweet yet feisty and tough heroine who was the perfect woman for Eli. She was a submissive but only in the bedroom and had no qualms with speaking her mind and doing what she wanted outside of it. I had so much fun seeing the interaction between Eli and Crysta as they worked together to keep the ranch out of the hands of her devious family members while fighting the attraction between them. They had great chemistry and the sex scenes were hot which included some spankings. 

Of course, one of my favorite things about this book was that I got to see some of my favorite characters such as Micah, Dee and May in action again. OMG! I still love Micah SO much and loved how he could get under Eli's skin and push him towards acting on his feelings for Crysta. LOL! May and Dee were hilarious together and they had me laughing. 

I also enjoyed the suspenseful elements in this story as I'm a huge fan of romantic suspense genre. This book had a little bit of everything and it was worth the wait to read Eli and Crysta's love story. I love when a good woman will fight for the man she loves and reach inside his soul. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series.
