A billionaire lacking morals. A woman who needs protection. A delusional friend with benefits. Observe the clash between true love and the trickery of self-deception.

Jaxson Pope just wants to enjoy himself with sexy girls, fast cars, and money. When he rescues his brother’s beautiful friend, he’s frustrated that he can’t stop putting his hands on her despite the consequences.

Could she be the one who changes him into a one-woman man? He finds the thought unnerving.

JenniferChambers perceives Jaxson as her romantic protector. Frightened for her life, she can’t refuse his invitation to move into his home. Turns out, he supplies the danger by not shielding her from the insanity that is Amanda.

Jennifer is now threatened from both inside and outside the house.

Jaxson has never denied Amanda Harrington's compulsion for unrestricted access to him. Her only childhood confidant, he’s been her one constant grasp on reality. When he neglects keeping her reined in, she depends on her delusions to guide her instead.

The tug of war between two women sends Jaxson into a tailspin. To please them both can prove fatal…

Reckless Obsession is the final installment in Theresa Papa’s Pope Family Trilogy and focuses on Jaxson Pope, who heads his family’s law firm and is torn between two women. Jaxson is currently hiding Jennifer from dangerous and deadly criminals and feels he must act as her protector. He is also torn by Amanda, his childhood friend and sex partner, who is becoming more obsessed with Jaxson in order to maintain her mental stability. I recommend this book as it has complex characters and an intriguing plot with strong emotions, danger, jealousy, unexpected and surprising twists, and steamy chemistry.

Read this one in one day! Couldn’t put it down.

Reckless Obsession had Amanda’s naughty side come out. She becomes more difficult to control and Jaxon has trouble keeping the women separate.
