Who is this man? And how does he seem to hold so much power over me? I wake to find a tall, muscular man standing over me. Is this heaven or a prison? I came to Italy to escape a stalker but now it looks like I’ve landed in the hands of another dangerous man. He says he’s an honest businessman but the mansion he lives in tells a different story.

She is hurt by a gunshot grazing her and he saves her. Then things get spicy quickly but they do not go further and he is a secret mafia man who poses as a pizza shop owner and gives her a fake job and he has a nasty bone to pick with his former acquaintance named Bruno who made his friend Giovanni and it is later revealed that his right hand man, Enzo was a traitor as well. He is then killing his enemies and torturing foes while she is left alone with a bitchy maid named Rosa. He found out that Jake, the dude he saved from being homeless had died because he was poisoned with drugs with alcohol and he finds out that Enzo did that so he lines his soldiers up and then kills Enzo to show that he is no one to mess with and that he will not hesitate to kill anyone who tries to betray him. He comes sometimes to check in and then one night he takes her out on a date and they have a good time till things get spicy on Netflix and chill and they do the deed hehe. He then that night kills Bruno and his army and is now done and then they do anal for some reason which was hot in the torture room and she is all tied up and it is chefs kiss. Moving on during the day she snoops and finds his obsession which is pictures of her at 17 and she knew someone was watching her but the police did nothing and excused it and then when she came to Italy it was the best time for him to swoop in and come get her when she was nearly killed and brought her back and omg did I say he gives her like an ownership choker to make sure people know she’s his omd. She then leaves cuz she’s terrified of him and tries to get out of the country illegally but is stopped by Carlo’s persuading and he explains weirdly but it’s all good. He proposes. They get married, and have an army of kids. YAAYAYYAYAYAY.

Solid 3.75/5

I am voluntarily reviewing a reader copy of this book.

Carrie needed a new start, her life had felt different for the past few years like everything that she did was being watched so she encoded to go to Italy and find a new life only what she discovered within minutes is danger. Leaving the airport and getting a taxi to the hotel was as mundane as you could think only she becomes involved in a shoot out and is what she believes is shot. She wakes to find a man who looks like an Angel only he is anything but and the more she finds out the more she realises that he is more the devil than she ever expected but with her heart deciding that he is the one could anything change how she feels about him?

Carlo is a man to be feared, running a huge family business with restaurant chains across the world he is a man with the world at his feet, but also has taken over as the mafia don. But there is something that he wants more than anything, something he has been coveting for years and she is finally in Italy, Carrie is his world and he has been keeping an eye on her and watching her every move. With her now in Italy it is time for him to claim his bride, only she gets injured in the crossfire of a rival family and a man he once considered a friend. Determined to keep her safe and hope she never discovers his obsession with her leads to some bad decisions and there is a traitor in his midst. Can he keep her safe and if she learns if his secret will he lose her forever?

I’m a big fan of this author she is always giving me entertaining stories with the right amount of smut. Carrie was a weaker character than I normally enjoy but Carlo was a fab male lead with the right amount of determination and obsession. 4* read.

Part of the Claimed series in true Lena Little style only she can take something so scary turning it around to be something else in a good way…maybe 😊. Each one can be read as a standalone in under an hour with a crazy sexy and the women who captures his undivided attention. A little on the weird side Carrie goes to Italy to escape a stalker has some type of accident wakes in a strange home being taken care by a strange man one part of her brain says run considering why she escaped to Italy to begin with or to at least be scared and the other part accepts the strangeness of it all. Carlo sexy as all get out stalker well he is worst than a stalker with a mess of secrets, and one may goal to protect his girl but what happens when betrayals come to light, some secrets are revealed will she still want him, will he give her a choice to walk away, will her stalker come for her, did she jump out of the frying pan into the fire so to speak, and can they find happiness in a world of craziness?

Carrie has had a stalker for a few years now and it is makin her nervous. No one else seems to believe her or take it seriously. To get away from her stalker, she takes a trip to Italy to explore her roots. She immediately gets caught up in a shoot-out and gets injured. She wakes up in a strange bed with a strange man looming over her. She is terrified thinking that it is her stalker but it is just the man who got her out of there and brought her to his mansion to heal. Carrie is very attracted to Carlo but she is having a hard time deciding whether he is her savior who cares about her or if he is just trying to control her.

Carlo is an important man in Italy and a leader of a mafia family. He did rescue Carrie in a bad situation and care for her. However he has no intention of ever letting her go. What is worse is that he is hiding a big secret from her.

Our heroine goes to Italy to get away from one problem only to find another. And yet, something doesn't add up and she might be in an entirely different kind of trouble now.

This is book seven of the series, but it is written as a standalone. No prior reading is required.

This is an alpha male romance with a bit of an age gap. The story is well written and easy to read with a small but interesting cast of characters. Our hero and heroine have excellent chemistry, but have to overcome a bit of a trust issue. We get a bit of action and suspense as well as a bit of romance and steam all leading to a nice HEA. Overall, a fun read and I look forward to more in this series.

Highly recommended.

I loved Claimed By My Stalker Book 7 of Claimed. Carrie awakens in a strange home, she is being cared for by Carlo. She shouldn’t trust him but she does. Carlo has a secret though and if Carrie finds out he’s afraid she will not understand. There is a little drama with a rival gang, a little intrigue into why Carlo won’t share his room and a rat in Carlo’s company. He must keep Carrie safe. I loved this storyline and the characters. Not too long but a good mystery and enough drama to keep you intrigued. I would definitely recommend this book and the series.

I need to stop trying to read Lena's books. They never work out for me unfortunately. This book just felt really disjointed. This book was the author telling us information rather than telling us a story. The scenes between the characters felt really stilted, and the dialogue was weird. The sex scenes felt dry and like I was being read a list of things to do, instead of hot sex. The scenes that I felt would help believe their insta-love seemed to be cut out and then told to us through a flashback from one of the characters. Overall this story and the characters felt really flat and boring. I ended up putting it down. I just couldn't do it.

What did I just read?

This book reads like bad madlibs—the plots don’t make sense together, the heroine is stupid and gullible, the hero is violent and mentally ill (not like “there’s a pill for that” mentally ill, but “oh, we need to put you down or you will destroy the world” mentally ill).
The spicy scenes make no sense. One minute he’s kissing her back, the next she’s on her back with zero transition. Characters die with zero backstory. Words and phrases are used incorrectly the whole book, but honestly, that’s the least of the problems! It reads like the work of someone in the middle of having a stroke.

Another delightful story from Lena Little. I also enjoyed this story. Carrie is on the run from her stalker and goes to Italy. but just ends up in a gunfight between thugs who are targeting Carlo and his company. What didn't cross Carrie's mind was falling in love while on the run from a mob boss. Carlo does everything he can to find her and keep her safe, but he's not quite ready for what he's offering. A wonderful book and highly recommended!

This story revolves around an American girl who arrives in Italy and is shot. She wakes to find a man standing over her. What follows is the story of their relationship, while the concept is great, there appears to be gaps in the timeline and with that missing components that, if present, would make the story flow more smoothly.

Carrie went to Italy to escape the man who had been stalking her. On the way from the airport she is in the middle of a shoot out. She wakes up in a strange place, with a large man in her him. He tells she must stay there for her safety.

She feels like he is leaving information out. If he is really an honest man, then why is there gunfire? But there is something about him.

Carrie has a stalker and she takes off to Italy to escape! However, she ends up running head first into danger and who should come to her rescue, but that very man she is trying to get away from. Carlo is obsessed with Carrie and he’s not about to let her get away that easy!

Overall, this was an enjoyable short story. It has an exciting plot with some action, danger and heat.

Carrie went to Italy to get away from her stalker and she meets Carlo there. It was an instalust/love romance. However, the story line left me confused, there were unanswered questions, timeline issues, and just missing pieces. The love angle was a quickie passionate love story but the plot left me saying unsure so I am it was just okay.

I enjoyed the story of Carrie and Carlo. The story starts with a gunfight and Carrie waking in a strange place that's not a hospital. There is plenty of action, stalking, betrayal, passion, romance, and love. It was interesting to find out who the stalker was. I enjoyed reading this story. I highly recommend it.

Carrie is on the run from an aggressive stalker and visits Italy. When she arrives there she gets in between two gangs and gets hurt. She wakes up at Carlos place. Carlo sees Carrie and just knows she is his One, but now he has to convince her of that fact. But Carlo has a secret and when it comes out, everything could change. Instalove, sweet, steamy, romantic , with action, twists and turns ,OTT, and safe (I think it's dual virgins 🥰) with a sweet HEA😍😍😍😍

This was a fun romance that had fab characters and an exciting plot. There's a mystery in how these two come together and I like that I was in the dark as much as Carrie was ;P Carlos was waaay more than he seemed but he sure was OTT for Carrie. Lol! Expect an entertaining reading ride full of action, drama, stalking and steamy romance...all the things that make a page turner ;D

This is book7 of Claimed… Carlo and Carrie
She came to Italy and got into a situation being hurt and being taken care of by Carlo. It was a world wind from the start. Secrets, hurt and issues that come light between these two. It was a great story and you will not be able to put it down to the very end.

Carrie goes to Italy to get away from a stalker only to wake up to another one. I really enjoyed reading Claimed By My Stalker by Lena Little. Carrie knows nothing about Carlo except that he is obscenely rich and she shouldn't trust him but despite that she feels safe with him. Carlo becomes obsessed with Carrie but what happens when she learns his truth?

A 5 star steamy afternoon read

She went to Italy to escape a stalker but will Italy prove to be more dangerous?
Carrie & Carlo's story is temptation & steam. He says he's a simple business man but she knows he's hiding something. Will discovering his secret obliterate the bond they have developed?.

I did not like this.
It missed several scenes and missed so much that made the story so bad! It felt like someone had taken a lot of pages out of the book and putthe rest back together and made this. It felt so empty and would have made a good story if there was more backgrounds and scenes.

It was so bad and so predictable! She instantly trusted him and loved him from the start.

New to me author

String start. Good plot but I felt like it just sorta stopped and I'm more confused after reading the epilogues. Usually I like them for closure but felt like these were anything but.

The author has given us an older man/younger woman story that pulls us into the lives of Carlo and Carrie. The story keeps us turning the pages with danger, connection, secrets and steam.

Love the cover.

Carlo and Carrie meeting was no coincidence. Carlo had always known they were meant to be together. Carrie had no idea that her stalker was so much more. The ending was adorable

Good Read

I enjoyed the quick read. I would love more plot. It did seem to jump a bit, and I was getting confused for a small section, but then it straightened back up and was easy to follow again.

👍

I only give up to 3 stars for these short books and I would have given it 3, but it felt like somebody had taken pages out of it. Like it was supposed to have more and those missing pieces dropped it down to 2. It was so a good read though
