My name is Savannah Miller. My father is the mayor of New York. One day, after my 27th birthday, I was grabbed from behind. A cloth sack was quickly pulled over my head, and I was taken from everything I'd ever known. I was beaten, starved, treated like an animal, and forced to live in a room with no windows. With no sense of time and no dignity left, I finally gave up hope and made a promise to myself to end it all. Unfortunately, it was going to be a slow process.

He’s a ruthless stranger. One I can’t see, only feel, thanks to my friends who make a deal with him on my behalf. No names. No personal details. No face to etch into my mind. Just him, me, and an expensive silk tie. What happens in Vegas is supposed to stay in Vegas. He warns me he’s full of danger. I never see that side of him. All I experience is his Russian accent, delicious scent, and touch that lights me on fire. One incredible night turns into two. Then we go our separate ways. But fate doesn't keep us apart.

A great beginning for this series
This is the beginning of a series that promises to keep us on our toes.
HIS is is a security company started by Jesse Hamilton . It employs some of his family members, as well as former military and FBI agents.
Jesse has suffered a great loss, and has hardened himself to ever loving again. He carries a guilt in his heart and soul. He dedicates his life to his job and his 5 yr old daughter. FBI agent, Kate Ross, is his brother’s AJ partner. There is an under current between Kate and Jesse, but it isn’t until she is injured while walking with Jesse, that they become close. That’s when the story not only heats up, but the suspense intensifies and the whodunit will keep you guessing.
A well developed plot with engaging characters. Though it’s a stand alone, loose ends are left which I am sure will make for interesting stories in the future.
I want to commend the narrator of this audiobook. Excellent delivery .
I was gifted this audiobook. The opinions expressed are solely my own.

Soooo Glad It's Here!
I'm a fan of this series. Start to finish, all of the HIS stories are golden in my eyes. So I was totally stoked to hear that they are now being made into audiobooks; a media I never expected to enjoy, but can't seem to go a day without now.
This is the first book in the series, and from the standpoint of narration it seems to have taken Carson Beck several chapters to step comfortably into his characters. This is especially notable with the female characters, unfortunately. Main character FBI Special Agent Kate Ross' voice is shrill, whiney, and distinctly annoying for the first few chapters. But just when I was about to give up (admittedly thinking I just couldn't listen to the voicing any longer), the narrator seemed to slide into the characters like they were well-worn shoes. From that point, the narration was okay. In fact, Carson Beck's male voicing is decidedly *ahem* hot.
If you are not yet familiar with the men and women of HIS, pick up the book, or grab the new audiobook and enjoy the story. It's a great series with dynamic, richly written characters full of love and loyalty.

I enjoyed Carson Beck's narration. I loved how the phone calls were presented as if we were listening to both ends of the conversation. I enjoyed listening to it as much as I did reading it!

I love this book!
*audio copy received from author*
I’ve read this book. I’ve loved his book. I’ve wanted a Hamilton man since the first pages but to hear it out loud makes it that much more awesome. I love the characters, especially AJ... haha
Jesse and Kate sure do have a battle ahead of them and most of that is them busting their butts to not only catch a bad guy but to keep from killing or ravishing each other. Two hard headed, determined people in one room, locked away to keep Kate safe... could be bad, but it was quite the opposite.
I love the way Sheila is able to bring the characters to life and give us all a story we absolutely love.

Enjoyable listen
If you could sum up His Desire in three words, what would they be?
Steam, romance, intrigue
Any additional comments?
First in this series. This was an enjoyable listen. I read the book prior to listening to the story. There were spots that I did not remember in the book. There were several months between the two. I have to say, I liked the read better than the listen but both were good. One thing that makes this series is the intrigue. It is not all about the steam.

An exciting beginning to a series with danger, family, and love!
His Desire is the suspenseful romance between Jesse, the founder of HIS, and Kate, an FBI agent. Kate’s life is soon in danger as she’s seen walking around and talking to Jesse, but Kate’s not so sure that she’s the actual target. As the danger get closer, so do Jesse and Kate. Will they be able to find love, a future, and the killer before someone gets hurt?
I loved reading this book, but listening to it added a whole new dimension. Mr. Beck had a strong voice and his impersonations were very well done! My only complaint would be that sometimes it was difficult to tell when a break in the chapter happened, so when there was a change in topic, I thought I had missed something at first. I look forward to listening to the rest of the series!

Great story (but graphic sex)
This book has great characters and suspense. I do not care for explicit sex so I skipped those parts. The narration is good. It's an entertaining book.
