Synopsis from Amazon:
Dylan James has no expectations when it comes
to relationships. He uses women for sex and they use him for his money and
power. It's quid pro quo and he's good with that. It works.
Beth Harrison has been burned. She's tired of the lies and the game playing that men bring and has buried herself in her passion--baking which keeps her out of the reach of heartbreak. As she begins her career as a TV baker, a new world opens up to her.
Dylan and Beth both know that casual sex is all about giving what you need to get what you want. Except that sometimes you give more than you need to and get everything you ever wanted.
My
review:
I always feel a little naught when I
pick up a book that's been labelled as erotica. To me that genre used to mean a
book full of sex but no proper substance. I have now changed my mind.
Beth was a very likeable character.
Strong woman with a weak past. She knows what she wants and really seem to be
the more grown up person in the story.
Dylan started off as an arrogant
I-am-your-love-god kind of guy, but soon turned out to be the more romantic of
the too. He turned a little too quickly for me - I was expecting him to play a
little more hard-to-get character.
Both characters had a sad story in the
past that shaped them into who there were when they met and thanks to those good
back stories the book was made more believable.
I always look at books I can relate
too, that I can believe in. characters should be easy to imagine and the paths
they take should be natural and I think this books ticks the boxes.
This is a quick read romance well told
I Louise Bay is an another I will look out for. And as I love baking too it was
just a little more personal.
Thank you to NetGalley for access to
this book in exchange for an honest opinion.
My rating: 4/5
