Author: Gina Gordon
Release Date: 5/26/14
Genre:
Contemporary Romance (Hot)
Book Synopsis:
Let
the game of seduction begin…
Veronica Whitfield feels like a frumpy
old maid. After ten years of raising her younger siblings, she’s desperate to
get her sexy back. And why not find it with the man she’s been in lust with
since she was twelve years old—her brother’s best friend, Finn O’Reilly?
Finn is looking for love. And not any
love—true love. Complete with the
white picket fence, two children, and a dog. He’s just been a little unlucky
finding it, and he sure as hell isn’t about to consider his best friend’s little
sister for the job, no matter how badly he wants her in his bed.
But then Veronica propositions him with
a game of dark, delicious seduction. Finn is tempted to indulge his hidden need
for kink, but at what cost? Following through could very well ruin their
friendship, but maybe—just maybe—helping Veronica rediscover her sexy side is
exactly what he needs to find love at last…

My Review: 5 stars
This was a really fun read. I enjoyed getting to know Veronica and Finn. I loved that they had both been secretly fantasizing about the other for years. But when Finn sees Veronica's graduation number - whew! Things go from 0 to hot damn really fast. Veronica is tired of being the responsible one who always takes care of things and she wants to let loose and have some fun. Her number one guy for that fun is Finn. They take things to a higher level in the kitchen and lots of other places too. There's a few problems though, they each fall even harder for the other and they're both convinced that it would never work out. So what do you do when you know who the right person for you is? Do you let them go or do you fight to make it work? This is the third book in the Madewood Brothers series, and if the rest are anything like this one I've got a few books to get. Fantastic, funny, so freaking hot and sexy, this is a great book that I really enjoyed.

Seducing the Playboy
by: Amanda Usen
Release Date: 5/26/14
Genre: Contemporary Romance (Hot)
Synopsis:
The best desserts are worth
the wait…
Pastry chef Jenna Cooper crushed hard on playboy chef
Roman Gallagher when her older brother brought him home to share their family
Christmas six years ago. Now she’s old enough to do something about it, and she
won’t take no for an answer—for anything.
Out of the frying pan into
the fire…
Roman has one hard and fast rule—don’t sleep where you
eat. But he can’t say no to Jenna’s plea for him to help her save her family
business. Soon she's working for him, and their scorching chemistry melts
Roman’s resistance.
If you can’t stand the
heat…
Jenna knows Roman has reservations about enjoying the heat
between them, but she’s got a plan. She’s going to keep this sexy man so
satisfied in—and out—of the kitchen, he won’t regret a thing. But Roman has his
own ideas. He wants more than a few hot nights, and he's going to teach Jenna a
lesson about playing with fire.
Tagline: Work hard, play harder...

My Review: 4 1/2 stars
This was a great read that really focused on who and what the people in the book are. I enjoyed learning about the difficult lifestyle a chef must have, hadn't really ever thought about it, but that's dedication. Jenna comes to Roman with a two-fold plan. First to get his insights on how to help her family's restaurant recover, and second to fulfil her long held fantasies she's had for Roman since she was a teen. Jenna's not expecting forever, just right now. Roman has worked hard for his Mother his entire life, and is expecting to take over the family business just as soon as he fixes the latest aquisition that his Mother has made. Jenna comes in quite handy for that and gives Roman ideas on exactly what to do. She gives Roman her proposal about his advice and a fling. Roman, not wanting to hurt Jenna, agrees but on his timetable. Unknowingly, Roman sets a timetable for seduction and more. The only question is who will be left unhurt by the end of their agreement? I really enjoyed this book, and the ending was fantastic. There were a lot of things that happened that were unexpected, but in both good and bad ways. I'm looking forward to reading more of Amanda's work in the future. I thought her characters were great and the storyline was fantastic, it moved right along at a great pace. This was a very well written book, I'm glad I got the chance to read it.
