Your best friend. Obviously.
Sephy King’s worked flat-out to make her new lingerie business a success, only there’s a tiny snag – the marketing photos for the launch party are a disaster.
Luke Jackson will help her, won’t he? They just need to strip off, model gorgeous, sexy underwear together and take more photos! So what if the stunning body he’s been hiding makes Sephy’s eyes pop out? And when he holds her, she suddenly wishes they were in her bedroom…alone? He’s her best friend.
Then Luke asks Sephy for a return favour: to pose as his fake fiancĂ©e to get his parents temporarily off his back. It’s a risky strategy – but she’s sure she can pull it off.
Until he kisses her…
My thoughts:
Luke and Sophy are best friends. Then she asks him to pose with her..in their underwear, and suddenly all they can think of is sex. Yup, that happened fast. All he can think about, all day long, all night long.
I did like their friendship, and how sweet he was with her kid. But I could not really see these two as lovers, they lacked chemistry. It felt a bit forced at times. How they suddenly wanted each other and could not think of anything else.
And Sophy was so, I know I want to hit characters over the head a lot, but Sophy, sheesh woman, take the help they are offering!!! That stupid woman would rather be homeless than ask for help. That is not being brave and doing it on your own. That is being a stupid cow.
So their dance is mostly them being stupid. Well, not Luke, I liked him, I understood his issues, but hers, nah. Not hers.
Meh

ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteHa book sounds good. Love the posing in the underwear idea! You always inspire me with your exercise each week.
ReplyDeleteIt would sure be awkward and nice ;)
DeleteI can't believe you're still getting snow! We've got our air conditioner on.
ReplyDeleteHaha, yes nothing strange about that here :) Happens in May too
DeleteSo you know I follow you on IG. All that nature, that's your "backyard"? Damn, do you live in fucking Narnia?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteLOL. Hehe, I wish.
DeleteThe sad thing is that they want more houses here so they already destroyed one trail
I saw that first photo in instagram - oh my goodness it's so beautiful!
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
Lovely pictures from your walks!
ReplyDeleteOh my, she does sound like a twit not to take help. Oh well at least it sounds fun in the blurb. ;)
Thanks :)
DeleteSuch a twit
Pretty!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteWow, look at the colors in that sky of yours, Linda! So beautiful it takes your breath away, my friend... I feel that old jealousy coming on again about you living in the prettiest place on Earth (mewants too!!!) :D Well, I see that the newly-fallen snow has not slowed you down in the slightest... I swear you've got the discipline and the stamina of a world champion! :) Keep up the good work! The book sounds interesting, though I can understand your gripe - knowing when to ask for & accept help is just another strength.
ReplyDeleteAnd you always write the sweetest comments :D
DeleteAwww now I do feel like I live in a wonderful place...I could take some of that azur blue ocean that some have though ;)
