Angelica Rose's mom always told her that desperate times
called for desperate measures. Walking into a strip club and asking for an
audition certainly qualifies as desperate, but when her mom's battle with
cancer ends months before Angelica is due to start college, she doesn't feel
like she has much choice.
The moment Morgan Cadwell sees her on his stage, he knows
she's the one woman who could make him break all the rules. There's no way he's
going to let Angelica dance for other men, so he hires her as his live-in
personal assistant instead.
Morgan's offer lets Angelica keep her clothes on...but
little does she know that, in the end, he'll make her bare her soul instead.
Warning: This
book is about an alpha caveman and a sweet but fierce virgin heroine who fall
ridiculously fast in insta-love. If you're okay with that, then enjoy!
4 out of 5 stars
This was a great story with a good arc and storytelling that was complete in a short amount of time. There was wonderful character development and just enough drama to keep you hanging while the love was not immediate. I liked the alphaness of Morgan and the way that Angelica didn’t dwell on the negatives in her life. They complimented each other well and the story had a great flow.
I did feel sometimes like it was more of a Fifty Shades fan fiction than an original story idea - he was not controlling before they met and he bought her an Audi because it was safest. BUT then he was sure very soon after meeting her that they would be together forever so he wasn’t all Christian Grey at least!
If you’re looking for a quick read with all the elements of a great novel, this book is definitely one you should check into!
EXCERPT:
“Hey, I thought there was no
touching in lap dances?” I tried to protest.
“There will always be
touching between you and me,” he answered.
I knew it shouldn’t get to
me. I didn’t know this guy and I was acting a part to try to get a job. But
holy hell his words and his touch were turning me on and confusing me. If I was
honest with myself, I’d admit that there was crazy chemistry between us and
maybe—just maybe—I was using this situation to my advantage to see what
happened.
“There is no you and me,” I
retorted as I tilted my body away from him.
“There will be,” he insisted.
Some of my uncertainty must
have shown on my face because his hands gentled and he ran them from my hips to
my back and stroked softly. He lightly tugged on the material but it didn’t
fall any further. “Show me more.”
I could feel his cock hard
underneath me, my pussy resting over it and driving me more than a little wild.
I’d never been in a situation like this before. His dark eyes burned into mine
and I threw all caution to the wind as I undid the rest of the buttons on my
dress. It fell, the material gathering around my waist. Morgan held my eyes as
his hands moved away from me to grasp my dress and toss it to the ground.
He practically growled as his
gaze roamed over my body. I’d chosen my lingerie carefully this morning,
choosing the nicest set I owned. It was white lace, so I was worried it made me
look too innocent when I’d picked it out, but I didn’t have a lot of choices.
Now I was thrilled with my selection because it fit the role I was playing to
perfection.
“Maybe if you’re very good
for me I’ll forgive you for being naughty,” he said as he trailed a finger down
my chest and snapped the front clasp of my bra open.
His action surprised me, and
I moved my hands to cover my chest without realizing what I’d done. He quirked
an eyebrow at me in a subtle challenge, like he’d known all along that I
wouldn’t be able to stay in character. Taking a deep breath, I remembered the
role I needed to play if I wanted this job and forced my arms back down.
“What if I want to be bad for
once?” I asked as he slid my bra straps down my arms.
It was like he’d woven a
seductive spell around me, making me forget why I was here and all of my
troubles. I’d never felt anything like this before. My skin was on fire,
goosebumps running along my flesh. My panties were damp and I couldn’t stop
myself from rubbing lightly over his length. My body was tightening in
anticipation of what would come next.
“As long as you’re with me,
you can be as bad as you want to be, Angel,” he whispered before closing his
mouth over one of my nipples. Each hand held one of my breasts, squeezing
lightly. He plucked at the other one with his finger and thumb, making it
pucker with need.
“Ohmigod,” I gasped at the
sensation, closing my eyes so I could pretend this wasn’t actually happening.
“Look at me,” he ordered, and
my eyes popped back open to find him staring up at me. “You keep your eyes on
me, Angel. I want to see every single thought that runs through your head. No
hiding.”
