Alexa Riley always knows how to sway me into the right direction. This one made me fall head over heels in love with as sexy and yet so romantic in away you felt the emotions. a GREAT READ!

Great addition to this series. Love Jay and Jordan. The hero and heroine both work for the same company and are stuck in the friend zone. Finally the hero makes a move. This book is packed with action, romance, and funny moments.

A pure AR insta-love story, This is the third story in For her series but can be read standalone. I enjoyed Jordan and Jay chemistry and romance . Throw an alpha hero with a sassy heroine what’s not to enjoy. All the stories in this series are great and sweet & sexy read ; but the first book in the series “ Everything For Her “ is still my favorite .

Honestly I just wasn't feeling it.

This was the latest book in the For Her series--and my least favorite. I rather liked the first one, less the second, and the novellas are just not very good. The story seemed rushed and kind of like an afterthought. It wasn't bad, but I found myself rushing through just to get to the end. I liked it enough that I would read the next in the series--with hope for a turn around--but not enough to re-read anytime soon.

This is the final novel in the For Her trilogy, and I've truly enjoyed each and every one, though book 2, His Alone, is still my favorite! I really liked the main characters in this story, and the suspense plot was much more in depth than in the others, so that was an interesting change as well.

Jordan Chen is part of the elite security team at Osbourne Corp. He mostly deals with the computer aspects of things, as he's quite the hacker. He's always kept to himself, and doesn't have a ton of friends. He's really close to his dad, and visits him every week. He's never really had a strong connection to a woman though. Then, one day, he has to deliver some papers to the company's CEO, and he sees HER, Mr. Osbourne's assistant. He knows right then she's meant to be his. But, he doesn't really know how to make that happen, so they become friends. But he desperately wants more.

Jay Rose is the right-hand woman/assistant to the CEO of Osbourne Corp. Everyone has to get through her to get to Miles Osbourne, and many don't take kindly to her because of that fact. She's a big talker, and she can bluster her way through most things to get what she wants. But, she's become a bit of a workaholic, and she doesn't have much of a social life due to that fact. She's also not close to her family, as she's so different from them. They are all flighty hippie types, where she's always been Type A. When she meets Jordan, she's excited to finally have a friend at work. Even if she would really love to be more than just friends.

Jordan and Jay have great chemistry, but when Jordan finally decides to go for asking Jay on a real date, everything seems to go comically wrong. Their dates keep getting ruined for one reason or another, but they're both determined not to give up. Some of the situations they find themselves in are downright hilarious, and I was really enjoying laughing along with them. It's not often you get so much humor in what is ultimately a romantic suspense story. The suspense plot here was a little convoluted, and was much more prevalent than that portion has been in the other books. But, it was exciting and the stakes were quite high, so it was enjoyable.

I loved getting a little more insight into some of the other security guys, as we've only really learned about Ryan and Paige (from book 2) before. I'm hopeful maybe some novellas might show up down the line for the other guys, as I'd love to continue to get peeks into this world. I also really LOVED Pop, Jordan's dad. He was a great side character, and was so lovable. I enjoyed seeing Jay and her sister trying to form a bond as well. It was nice to see women who weren't competitive with each other trying to form a real connection.

Jordan and Jay really complemented each other and I loved seeing their relationship form and cement itself, regardless of outside forces. I liked their banter, and their sexy times were fun and exciting too. I mostly just love when a hero is ALL IN with the heroine from the beginning, and that definitely describes Jordan, and all AR heroes for that matter! It's one of the things I love most about their books: insta-love, OTT, obsessed heroes and the heroines who love them.

I definitely recommend this series, and this book as well. If you're a fan of the author, or even just a contemporary/romantic suspense fan, there is a lot to love here. I look forward to whatever new series will be coming from the authors.

Jordan is one possessive man, "I drop some bills on the table and stand up, grabbing Jay’s hand. “Sorry, but the only ***k either of us is looking at tonight is mine." Jay sometimes has to threaten her man to make him cooperate, “dang it, Jordan, don’t hurt yourself or you really won’t be getting any!” I give him a smack on the back. He grunts again like I really hurt him, but I know better." I liked this book, I loved Jordan the man was so attentive but alpha at the same time.

4.5 STARS!!!
Claimed was such a great romance read. It was absolutely enjoyable! Jordan and Jay were perfect for each other. The chemistry between the two was off the charts and there was no denying the attraction. Jordan was sexy, charming, thoughtful, protective and so, so sweet and caring. He was such a great son and I loved him even more for it, on top of being a great man.

"You're not the kind of woman that gets one night. You're worth a lifetime." (Swoon moment)

Jay was a sweet, thoughtful and a strong character. Although, she had her moments of clumsiness which was funny at times, she wasn't perfect and that was okay. Her sister was definitely a handful. This story had the perfect amount of romance and suspense. This book made me smile, laugh, swoon and had me on the edge of my seat, and I enjoyed every moment of it. I definitely recommend this book to romance lovers that enjoy a good bit of suspense within their story and I look forward to reading more books from this author in the future.

It’s no surprise that I’ve often complained about the brevity of the dynamic (and instalove) duo Alexa Riley’s stories. The novella-length and even shorter tales they weave have tended to be—in part due to the length—full of alpha males who take over their women so thoroughly that they sometimes consume them whole, developing tunnel, caveman vision to the point where they see nothing but the words ‘mine, mine, mine’. It’s ‘crazy love’, as a villain in ‘Claimed’ says, or devotion so complete it could well be religious—a style that any Alexa Riley reader needs to get accustomed to first.

But Riley’s full-length stories, in the ‘For Her’ series at least, have gone a long way to ease this somewhat extreme vision of theirs, as the plot—as well as the action—unfolded and stretched over chapters rather than mere paragraphs. The drawn-out storytelling is a boon in this case and the burn between Jay/Jordan more believable because of it.

Yet if I thought ‘Claimed’ started out quite well, the story and characterisation faltered for me as the pages wore on. I liked the initial awkwardness between Jay and Jordan, even as Riley pushed their relationship straight into the deep end rather quickly without much angst at all. And while Jordan was quite the bossy protagonist to remember, what I couldn’t quite get was Jay’s seeming inability to use her brains around Jordan—her total dependence on him, her concealment of the threat pushing her into TSTL behaviour, her helplessness later on—and her sudden pliancy when it came to just becoming a passive taker as she got in deeper with Jordan. That said, a caveat: my confessed preference for stronger, take-charge heroines is definitely showing up here however, particularly since Riley has written some suspense into the story but not too much that it overwhelms the romantic elements in it.

While ‘Claimed’ isn’t my favourite of the series, it’s one I jumped onto because just the thought of a full-length Alexa Riley story is irresistible. Riley’s iron-clad reaffirmations of HEAs (multiple epilogues!), over the top as they might be, do sometimes work out after all quite nicely—this book’s tooth-achingly sweet, drawn-out ending fits the bill.

I received a complimentary arc from NG for review purposes.

I LOVE Alexa Riley, she writes HOT books and this one really builds the chemistry as Jordan and Jay start out as friendly work associates. This story also takes place after the two For Her full length books and this is another full length story.

It stars Jay who works for Miles as his right hand guy. Jay is a she which for me was confusing. She is friends with Jordan and they eat lunch together. Jordan is a he and he works with Paige and Ryan in security. The second Jordan met Jay he fell HARD. But he is shy and she is standoffish so he ends up in the friendzone.

This is Jordan's story about how he gets Jay to see him and fall for him like he has for her. I loved seeing more i the Her series and more Mallory, Ryan, Paige and Miles. We see more things happening at the company as both J and J work there. We also see that Jay has an enemy someone that hates her pretty bad and sends her lots of nasty messages.

Jordan might be shy and quiet but he is pure alpha and HOT and very protective and he knows how to protect what is HIS! I enjoyed this story but it is very different from the other stories and the names Jay and Jordan I found confusing. Otherwise I loved it and I loved J and J together.

I was so excited to read this story because I absolutely adored the other two books in this series. Still, I began reading with some apprehension because I wasn't sure that this one would live up to the other two. What a waste of time that was! I was immediately sucked into the story and fell in love with both lead characters. Jordon is such a sweet and sexy computer nerd, and his insecurity around Jay is absolutely adorable. Jay is a force to be reckoned with at work, but her upbringing has left her feeling like she doesn't fit in anywhere, and it's a delight to watch her finally find her place in the world with Jordan and Pop. Jordan and Jay's devotion to each other is swoon-worthy, and the suspense aspect of this book makes it even more enjoyable. I have been in one of those mediocre slumps lately where I find myself skimming chunks of books because they just don't hold my interest. That was definitely not the case here; I devoured every single word. In fact, I liked it so much, that I wanted to start reading it again as soon as I finished. I talked myself out of it, though. I'm going to read all three again in order instead. ;-)

ARC received for review

This takes place right about the first two books, but you don't have to read them to enjoy this one.

Pure Alexa Riley...insta-love by Jordan for his girl. But he got himself in the friend zone, but when he got out...hot times. Then we also have a bad guy, actually three or four, who he has to rescue her from. His Pops is the absolute best.

Jordan Chen is the man behind the screen. As part of the elite security team for Osbourne Corporation, he has an iron grip on protection, all without having to make close connections with people. Until he meets the beautiful Jay, and suddenly his quiet life doesn’t seem so perfect anymore. He needs more. He needs her.When I started reading I couldn't put it down I read the book i couldn't put it down.Alexa is magnifysent writer.I cannot wait to read more of het books.Keep up the great work.

Jordan definitely has stalker type tendencies. I guess it's okay because Jay knows about it and approved. Actually she feels special because of it. While reading Claimed, I thought that Jay would have made an awesome sub in a BDSM book. Jordan is so sweet, their first date turned out messed up. He did all that he could to make it right the second time.

I have to say this was my least favorite out of the 3 in the For Her stand alone trilogies. This did have the insta-love, with a lot of suspense. I didn't find Jay to be that special in this book. If she was mentioned in the other 2, I honestly don't remember her. I also got annoyed with of the "J" names. Jordan, Jay, Justice even the therapist was name John! I felt like the beginning needed a different opener in the 1st few chapters. I just felt I was sorta of thrown in the middle of a book. I will say there were unexpected events that I didn't see coming.

Another great one from Riley! I really do enjoy this series and we finally got a story for Jordan!

This is a typical AR book but this series has far more to it. There is much more to the story.
Jordan Chen and Jay, both like each other and are friends who would both like more but both are struggling with conveying it to each other.
No O/W or O/M drama, the H and the h exclusively only have eyes for each other.
Plenty of the other couples from the previous books too plus plenty of action from the villiams.
HEA.

OHMYGOG OH MY GOD THE BOOK U WAITED FOR TWO YEARS AND AHHHHH IT WAS EVERY BIT THE AMAZINGLY AWESOME TOOTH ACHINGLY SWEET SELF THAT I EXPECTED IT TO BE!!!
