Titan's Addiction by Anna Zaires

Anna Zaires' Wall Street Titan duet was such a whirlwind of a read because it left me feeling partly nostalgic but it was also an incredibly sexy and romantic story between two opposite individuals who were never supposed to meet but found love in each other instead. Marcus Carelli did everything in his power to possess Emma Walsh but what he didn't count on was falling head over heels in love with her—even going so far as to stalk, obtain information, and manipulate events in her life. I admired his determination but I was also waiting for the moment Emma would find out about his deception because it was going to break her heart. Despite so many secrets and deception between them, Emma and Marcus' relationship captured my attention and heart.

"You're my addiction, my obsession, my reason for existing—and there's nothing I won't do to earn your love."

Titan's Addiction continues where Wall Street Titan left off—Marcus broke Emma's heart when he ghosted her for a week only to follow her grandparent's home in Florida after realizing that he desperately needed her in his life. What I loved most about this story was that despite their differences, Marcus never lost sight of his desire and love for Emma. She was his everything and he wanted to share his life with her. Emma was a much harder nut to crack because of her money issues and attempts at pushing Marcus away. I immensely enjoyed their push and pull relationship as Marcus doggedly pursues Emma without any hesitation. It was hilarious seeing him be jealous and possessive over Emma, a self-proclaimed cat lady who didn't think much about herself.

"I know that for him, I'll always be a prize worth fighting for—worth crossing any line for. And I wouldn't have it any other way."

In the end, I loved this duet series and I'm sad that we might never get Kendall and Austin's story. Nevertheless, Marcus and Emma's love had everything I wanted and more—a determined and possessive hero who only has eyes for his beloved and an incredibly relatable and humble heroine who doesn't think she is good enough for him. In addition to being romantic and sweet, their relationship was all-consuming and steamy as well. When I say that Marcus was obsessed with Emma, I really mean it. She was it for him. Although they certainly took their time to confess their love for each other, it was worth it in the end. I highly recommend this series to those who like billionaire romances, especially with a morally gray hero who is aware that he his stalking his heroine but can't help it because she's the one and a cat-loving heroine who has doubts and insecurities about herself but finds love and self-confidence in the end.
