Thrown together, they give in to the attraction flaring between them. But as the glare of the limelight intensifies and outside forces try to interfere, will the Prince and Duchess be a fairy tale romance for the ages or a disaster of palatial proportions? Elena may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she’s beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness So they make a deal: if he plays The Good Boyfriend for her family, he can be a very,verybad boy with her. Now their one naughty night is about to turn into a whole lot of trouble. Eve Brown is a certified hot mess. No matter how hard she strives to do right, things always seem to go wrong. Case in point when she accidentally hits the owner of the bed and breakfast with her car, breaking his arm. Ryan Wesley’s biggest regret is coaxing his very straight friend into a bet that pushed the boundaries of their relationship.
You’ll soon forgive Trevor for his body-shaming comments like Zoe does because he realizes how much he’s fallen for her. Though clean romance is just an atrocious descriptor (in my opinion) for books with closed-door bedroom scenes or with none at all beyond a chaste kiss or two. (There really needs to be a better description than “clean!” but I digress…)Out of his depth, he takes the advice of a student and signs “Duchess” for the gig who’s anxious for the good publicity. The scene: Beth lets her guard down and starts dating Logan, which irritates her ex Keith (Jay R. Ferguson), who threatens to take custody of their child. Beth refuses to let Keith bully her any longer and tells him off, lighting a fire in her. She drives to Logan’s house, where he is using an outside shower to clean up after a hard day of manual labor. Beth barges in, joins Logan under the shower spray and, without saying a word, begins to work off the rush of adrenaline from owning her power. Still fully clothed, Logan gives her everything she needs, and it’s smoking hot. Like most Bradfords, Trevor has a soft spot for food, but that’s about all. He wants the perfect woman and knows exactly what she’ll be like. Zoe is used to taking care of herself and has long ago accepted that if anything bad was going to happen, it was going to happen to her. I love romance books that have fun and steamy flirting by text! Jax and Lexi might have first connected anonymously but they sure don’t waste time finding carnal knowledge of one another.
I love Bellefleur’s writing and she did not disappoint with this second chance, friends to lovers story. What all readers might agree on is that steamy romance novels don’t fall into the “clean” romance category. In New York’s underworld, Elena Abelli’s sister is arranged to marry Nicolas Russo. A made man, a boss, a cheat. After his and Elena’s first encounter, she realizes he’s just as rude as he is handsome. Margot Cooper doesn’t do relationships. But when she comes face-to-face with Olivia Grant—her childhood friend, her first love, her first… well, everything, she’s not so sure about that stance.So when she loses her job her life starts going downhill from there she doesn’t expect it to get any better. The series: Ryan O’Connell stars in this semi-autobiographical dramedy about a gay man with cerebral palsy. In the series, Ryan Hayes has attempted to take control of his life and be more than his medical diagnosis as he navigates relationships, friendships and independence.
But Lexi’s got a major hang-up over his renegade lifestyle. And if she finds out his connections could catapult her to the top of her career, he’s afraid the fantasy woman he’s falling for might just end up like all the rest. Steamy romance novels definitely have an open door look to bedroom scenes that range from the hot to the downright erotic.Lily and Randy are one of my favorite couples who seem to have an affinity for getting it on in bathrooms of all kinds. She’s all country, he’s all heavy metal—and Macy knows that if anyone can propel her out of her rut, it’s Seth. But when their worlds collide, it’s anyone’s guess if they’ll survive with their hearts intact. When a series of unfortunate events leaves Olivia without a place to stay, Margot offers up her spare room. She certainly didn’t expect any help from the loud jerk next door, or the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that he offers her through an arrangement where they both benefit and no one is supposed to get hurt. Rapper Danielle “Duchess” Nelson is on the verge of signing a deal that’ll make her one of the richest women in hip hop. But an incident with a rising pop star has gone viral, unfairly putting her deal in jeopardy.
Jacob may have turned her down for the head chef position during her interview, but with him laid up and understaffed Eve is everywhere he turns trying to help. Having already escaped one scandal, she can hardly afford to be swept up in another. Besides, even if he were hers, everyone knows you don’t fall in love with a Made Man . . . right?I love marriage of convenience stories but in this case the groom isn’t ogling his intended but her sister. I loved how Ryan is trying to manage the feelings he’s always had for his best friend while Jamie is exploring his own feelings that he didn’t know he had. C'mon everybody, let's say it together: sex is normal. Everyone thinks about it. Most people do it. It's not a dirty word!
Great Deal
