Primal Instinct Kindle Edition

by D.M. Mortier (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars (315)
Mazoku Matsumoto was constantly being pursued by men wanting to end his life, and by women who wanted to be in his life. Both genders pursued for the same reason, the wealth and power that he wielded. Raised to be the heir of his grandfather’s criminal empire, he wanted no part of that world. The fact that his position as head of their crime family meant constant danger for her, for Taki, sealed it for him. He wanted out.
Taki felt the bond that she and Mazoku shared down to the marrow of her bones. He had been the only constant in her life. After years of hoping he would finally love her, as her heart secretly yearned for, Taki had to accept that she must forge a life without Mazoku in it.
As Mazoku fought to protect her from the dangerous men determined to capture her to gain his compliance and suck him back into the criminal world, Taki struggled to not lose herself in Maz’s dominance.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

The first romance novel I ever read was Cinderella! I devoured Disney’s version of romance until I was eleven, and then I discovered Mills & Boons. In those days kissing was the most explicit intimacy disclosed: the hero and heroine went to bed and came out the next day with smiles! I had no idea what happened, but I was intrigued. My mom had shelves and shelves of them. Over the long summer breaks, I barely left my bedroom! My busy parent had no idea what I was up to. I’ve always been fascinated with love stories. I started writing in college, but I never expected anyone would ever read my whimsical musings. LOL! Now years later, after husband and kids, and a solid career in finance I’ve started publishing those early ideas.

I write my stories so that every woman would be inspired to find the other half of themselves. With every story I tell, my Caribbean sisters are highlighted. Our culture is a melting pot of all ethnicities, where love has no color. We love who we love and make no apology for it. These stories are also infused with my love for sports and action thrillers. I’m an avid sports fan. Tennis, football, track and basketball are my favorites. I devour dramas and action movies. So it’s to be expected that my books have a healthy dose of adventure.

Writing romance novels has been a dream I never knew I had. It was born out of suddenly having a little extra time with the kids out of the house. I absolutely love this creative outlet.

    I am not fond of stories surrounding the mafia, but, this story I read in one night. It captured my undivided attention in the first chapter. Since I am not interested in blood and guts, the details described in the story were just enough to make me angry at the perpetrators to want justice. To D. M. Mortier, this is well written, enjoyable, intriguing and an OUTSTANDING read. Thank you!

    Yasssss, this was so good. I love this book from the beginning to the end!!! Stop playing with Maz, he was a true ALPHA and didn’t play at all when it came to Taki!!!!, and she was the same way about him. What a love story, the passion, intrigue, their chemistry together ❤️‍🔥 I can’t wait to read the Andreini’s story and his friends 👏🏽👏🏽

    4.0 out of 5 stars Maz was an Alpha even as a kid!
    Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2021
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Had EVERYBODY SHOOK. And then he became the ultimate ALPHA! I wondered briefly, what happened for Taki to be found the way she was, to end up becoming his ward? We never found out who/where she came from and what had become of her people! I also wondered, again briefly why Maz's mother showed up after all this time? Did she really think he would want to see her? As always, there was plenty of action going on, stubbornness of the main characters who FINALLY get on the same page and my all time favorite HEA. Oh and you know I LOVED the appearance of my favorite crew (Dom and company). Y'all know when they enter the scene its about to GO DOWN! Another you won't be disappointed in. Excellent read that is highly recommended!

    5.0 out of 5 stars protector to the end
    Reviewed in the United States on April 20, 2023
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Max was a young boy when he knew no one really wanted him. He was young when he knew fighting for what he wanted was his life. He was young when he found the one person in the world he would sacrifice everything for. He was young when he found his Taki. She was his everything. She was his world, his life, his to protect. Until she had to protect him.

    I enjoyed this story so much. Max was a protector. He would do what was necessary to keep the one person in the world he valued. Along the way he did find friendships but nothing out weighed his connection to Taki.

    For me D.M. Mortier gave me a full story with passion and Uber alpha male that had his alpha female. She was his equal.

    I wanted this book not to end. I wanted it to have a book 2 but Ms. Mortier is so good that she answer all my questions without me asking them in their post. I am hook on her books. I am looking for more of her books to read. Now what did I love about the book was that Maz at eight years old decide that he was going to take care of a baby an no one was taken his baby away. I was mad at his parents for neither one show him love not even his grandfather who save him from the system. But his Taki love him no matter what he did and his body Guard And the bodyguards wife. I wanted to cry but could not because you got respect the man he became because of Taki ,he could have been Ruthless in the crime world but she kept him grounded. I look for more from this author.👑

    There really isn’t anything of Ms. Mortier I don’t like. I was hesitant about reading this particular book, thinking I wouldn’t like it. I have to say that both Taki and Maz story is amazing and the storyline had me reading this book all night. However, I was not impressed with how Taki was so naive. How she could be so insecure about a person she knew as well as she knew herself, was just unbelievable. Her stubbornness and willingness to give up so often gave me whiplash and yeah made me a little angry at her games. Maz on the other hand was everything this story created for him, strong but broken, alpha male, but sensitive to his one true love, and a fierce protector but definitely overbearing.
