Puppy Love

BLURB:
There are only two things Sophie Reid doesn’t
do: lawyers and sex. When sexy, lawyer Ryan Becker stumbles into her life, her
first two thoughts are “no,” and “definitely no.” After Sophie and Ryan rescue a
dog from certain death on the Hollywood Freeway, they share one smoldering
kiss. Sophie knows a potential train wreck when she sees it and leaves the dog
and Ryan at the pound knowing she’ll never see either of them again.
Poor kid turned corporate attorney, Ryan vowed he’d get an education,
succeed, and be welcomed in the front door of the most stately homes in Beverly
Hills. Now that his career is on an upward trajectory, he is ready to settle
down. Unfortunately, the women he has been meeting haven’t set his heart
racing. Enter: Sophie.
A master of persuasion by profession, Ryan convinces Sophie to pursue
their undeniable mutual attraction. But Ryan’s quest to be a success at the
very occupation she reviles rankles her.
When a Hollywood union strikes, Ryan and Sophie find themselves on
opposite sides of the bargaining table. Can their sparks in the bedroom
overcome their standoff in the boardroom?

REVIEW:
Three Winks |
Every chapter Sophie has a different color hair, a different attitude and a different opinion about Ryan.
Ryan on the other hand always stays firm and true to what he wants... and that's Sophie.
I really enjoyed the beginning and how Sophie and Ryan meet -- through Sasha a run-away dog on the freeway. Ryan immediately shows his Alpha-male ways by following Sophie and kissing her when she least expects it.
My favorite parts of the book were the sensual scenes. Even though I felt sorry for Sophie, having never reached an orgasm with a man, I loved that Ryan took the challenge and found a way to make Sophie enjoy sex. The scenes were hot and sexy, just how I like them.
I gave the story three winks, only because parts seemed unrealistic. Ryan fell in love so quickly and I didn't see how when Sophie kept rejecting him OVER and OVER. At times, I wanted to reach inside the book and smack Sophie on the head. Luckily, she comes to her senses and I didn't have to do it. I recommend the book. It's a quick read with lots of spiciness for romance lovers. It won't disappoint.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
I write the
kinds of books I love to read. The quirky characters in my romance novels
experience angst, conflict, mostly great sex, and always get their
"happily ever after." In my mainstream fiction, ordinary woman
experience angst, conflict, and occassional great sex, but they also get
embroiled in struggles against extraordinary odds, and I don't promise a happy
ending. I also love thrillers, but I don't write those. I live in Los Angeles with my husband, son,
and a whole lot of pets. When I'm not hanging out in Hollywood, I'm eating my
way through Budapest.
