When the flood waters rise in the small town of Rust Creek Falls, kindergarten teacher Willa is trapped in her car. Collin, a childhood neighbor and troublemaker, rescues her. The pair takes shelter in a barn for the night. Willa quickly comes to realize that everything she thought she knew about Collin was wrong. Collin has always believed that he was no better than his reputation, but Willa insists he’s so much more. He’s someone she wants.

I enjoyed Christine Rimmer’s pacing in this book. While mostly about Willa and Collin battling his opinions of himself, the backdrop if the flood clean-up keeps the story moving at a quick clip. This was the first book I’ve read by Christine Rimmer, but it definitely won’t be my last.

Massimo Tittoni is a notorious playboy and also a Prince. He is a bit of a hedonist too. Described by people as gorgeous, rich and well endowed, he is a papparazi favorite. And he is never without a woman around it seems.

Lex Easton is a clothing designer and the daughter of a deceased famous rock star. Her business is on the verge of ruin and her mother on the verge of another trip to rehab. She sets off to meet Massimo about a failed business deal. When they do meet, the sparks fly.

Man, I so looked for ward to this book! It was reviewed by others as the hottest book ever and I thought, “Hot damn”! Well, it was erotic all right. I thought it was too over the top from the settings to the characters to the graphic descriptions. Now wait people, I love hot romance. I love it like nothing else. For me this was full of whorish characters, and overly detailed scenes dealing with bodily fluids. It just wasn’t for me on any level. Yay for the cover though!

Have you ever wanted to prove something to yourself and maybe everyone else while you’re at it? Well, Caitlyn Hanson did. She wanted to prove to herself that she was sexy and that a man or men would want her. With that in mind she, through the help of her friend, gets admission into a sex club.
She wants sex with a random stranger for nothing more than sex sake. She’s never been very experienced and she married the first man she ever slept with. Turns out he was a cheater and she is now single.

For Owen Mitchell, a bass guitarist for the band Sole Regret, a night at a sex club was pretty normal. He loves sex and will try almost anything. So, when he sees Caitlyn, who’s a few years older than him, he thinks his night just got even better. These two talk and decide on what they want from the night. I won’t say exactly what but I was impressed.

I am a fan of Olivia Cunning and loved the first two books of her Sinners series but lost interest with Trey’s book. I had no interest in finishing that series either. Luckily, I had already started this one. I enjoyed Gabe’s and Adam’s books. I wasn’t crazy about Shade’s book or the novella Share Me but this one kind of redeemed this series and Olivia Cunning as an author for me. I hope people will give this novella series a chance and I can’t wait for her new series that features Dare Mills!
