Hero – Fine arts, not including musician/writer
Heat Factor: Much of the first quarter of the book is kinky hate sex. Then it’s just lotsa sex.
Character Chemistry: Apparently threats to life and limb are an aphrodisiac
Plot: Will is trying to kill the man Kit is protecting (until he gets the file he wants and can kill his protectee himself)
Overall: If you can buy into the drama, it’s a pretty good spy vs. spy suspense
Heat Factor: It’s not just a bunch of hot air, this one gets steamy.
Character Chemistry: I mean, it’s basically Tom Selleck and Linda Hamilton in a book involving blimps, how could there not be chemistry?
Plot: Lexy has carved out a space for herself in the very male-dominated airship ground crew industry. But then womanizer Cameron Ramsay joins the crew and throws everything off, with his furry chest and bristly mustache and dimples. How will she manage to withstand the misogyny and his heated glances??
Overall: This was actually fascinating. Cameron starts out just genuinely gross—he lies to her about who he is, asks her out, and then punishes her for rejecting him. But then…
Heat Factor: Nipple play and multiple orgasms
Character Chemistry: They seem to think the good (the sex) outweighs the bad (the mistrust)
Plot: Marla seduces Jack
Overall: If the premise works for you, then it’s well-executed, but the premise super mega did not work for me
Crescent Pass, Book #1
Heat Factor: We really shouldn’t but we want to (and boy do they ever)
Character Chemistry: Attraction plus kindness is always a winning combination
Plot: Harper and Owen got Vegas married five years ago, and haven’t seen each other since. Now, Harper wants an annulment.
Overall: I really liked this book
Heat Factor: Well, that Daddy stuff sure surprised me
Character Chemistry: They are both so clueless and so googly-eyed about each other
Plot: Kai and Silas start dating
Overall: I believed this HEA
