Heart of Stone (The Stone Saga Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Dakota Willink (Author, Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 6,840 ratings

A billionaire with a secret he'll do anything to protect… Until he met her.

Krystina
It all began when I forgot my cell phone.
He wasn’t supposed to be there when I fell.
I wasn’t supposed to get lost in a sea of sapphire blue when he helped me up.
And he wasn’t supposed to be the billionaire investor, Alexander Stone.
I saw the dark promises in his eyes when he looked at me. But the shadows of my past haunted me, making me afraid to explore the possibilities I could never before have imagined.

Alexander
I was used to getting what I wanted.
But a chance run-in with Krystina Cole quickly turned my world upside down.
She was strong, determined, devastatingly beautiful—and stubborn as hell.
Her quick wit and firecracker attitude was the complete opposite of what I wanted in a woman.
But I still wanted to claim her. Tame her. Make her mine.
And I always get what I want.

Welcome to the Shameless Billionaire Club.
Guaranteed to be a little dark, twisted, and very shameless.

USA Today Bestselling Author Dakota Willink delivers the first book in The Stone Saga, a steamy, provocative, and emotionally-gripping dark romantic suspense.

    Good read but a bit slow in getting to the point. It feels like a copy of the storyline of 50 shades. Nice girl meets drop dead gorgeous guy who gets her involved in kinky stuff, bit slow and doesnt grip you enough where you can’t put the book down or wait to see what happens. I have bought book 2 just to see if it warms up a bit but only bought it because it was so cheap on kindle. Wouldnt have paid nearly £15 for the paper book book. Will see how book 2 goes before I commit to all 6 books.

    I saw this book on noted on facebook and decided to read. I usually do a sample before buying but just went straight to buying it and couldn't put it down once I started it. It is was a great book and I cannot, really cannot wait until the next one comes out. The only problem is once the next one does come out I will read it way too fast and then be stuck, once again, waiting for the third one. GREAT BOOK, GREAT STORY !! So glad I bought it.

    This is the first book in a series of 5. What I really like is the price. I can read all the books for under $30. First time I’ve read a book by this author and it’s a great read. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

    Heart of Stone is a layered piece of writing. Alex and Krys both have stories to tell. Trust to earn, truths to be unearthed. In this 📕we learn why Krystina has a heart ❤️ of stone.

    As she comes face to face with her past. Krys makes a decision that propels the story in a direction you never see coming. Hurt, humiliation, betrayal pain, and violence can push the most levelheaded person into a corner.

    The only solution is survival. Will Krys survive her choices? Will Alex survive the choices ?

    Well I’m on to book 📕 2 for the reveal.

    The author masterfully blends romance, suspense, and raw vulnerability. The characters are deeply relatable, especially Krystina and Alexander, whose chemistry is electric and layered with complexity. Willink's writing is immersive, drawing readers into a story of love, healing, and personal growth. The plot twists keep you hooked, while the deep emotional connections make it hard to put down. A beautifully written tale of strength and redemption, Heart of Stone is a must-read for anyone who loves a gripping, heartfelt romance.

    Enter into the world of BDSM. Fans of Fifty Shades of Grey will like this book.

    Although it is quite similar to Fifty Shades, it still has its own story. I have read all 3 Fifty Shades and will continue to read this series. I think it is well written.
