The first time it happened, it seemed like an impossible miracle. Bills were piling up, adding up to more money than I could ever make. Mom's hospital bills. My baby brother's tuition. My tuition. Rent. Electricity. All of it on my shoulders. And I had just lost my job. There was no hope, no money in my account, no work to be found. And then, just when I thought all hope was lost, I found an envelope in the mail. No return address. My name on the front, my address. Inside was a check, made out to me, in the amount of ten thousand dollars. Enough to pay the bills and leave me some left over to live on until I found a job. Enough to let me focus on classes. There was no name on the check, just "VRI Inc.," and a post office box address for somewhere in the city. No hint of identity or reason for the check or anything. No mention of repayment, interest, nothing…except a single word, on the notes line: "You." Just those three letters.
If you receive a mysterious check, for enough money to erase all your worries, would you cash it?
I did.
The next month, I received another check, again from VRI Incorporated. It too contained a single word: "belong."
A third check, the next month. This time, two words. Four letters. "To me."
The checks kept coming. The notes stopped. Ten thousand dollars, every month. A girl gets used to that, real quick. It let me pay the bills without going into debt. Let me keep my baby brother in school and Mom's hospice care paid for. How do you turn down what seems like free money, when you're desperate? You don't. I didn't.
And then, after a year, there was a knock on my door. A sleek black limousine sat on the curb in front of my house. A driver stood in front of me, and he spoke six words: "It's time to pay your debt."
Would you have gotten in?
I did.
It turns out $120,000 doesn't come free

This was one book I was on the fence about reading as some people I spoke to said it wasn't any good and it was over the top . I am going to say yeah right I loved this story , it was so different to anything have read before . I normal stay away from first account stories as the story line needs to be strong to keep me interested. But this story had me sucked in straight away . I read this book in one day and wanted more . The characters are very strong the male role is played prefect , he is stubborn and has the real caveman mentality the true alpha . While the female is a bit ditzy , but underneath is smart and clever . There isn't much I can actually tell you about this book without giving too much of it away . And I really don't want to do that as the story line needs to be kept for the reader to discover. Alpha is one of those stories you will either love or hate . I was sucked in right from the start . I wasn't able to put the book down . I think my family thought I was a little bit insane while I was reading this story . I was laughing , crying and screaming out at the characters . I don't normally react like that to books . I would rate this book 5 out of 5 . I have read a lot of books but this one by far is my favourite so far.
this is a must read ! The author is fantastic and the writing was very smooth . The story line didn't lag once . If you like the stories like fifty shades of grey , then this book is for you . I will be picking up more of this author Jasinda Wilders books . loved it !
