Vanessa Grant is a responsible young woman who has had to take care of her siblings when her mother passed away at the birth of the twins. She’s had a secret crush on ex-NBA star Ralph Prescott. But Ralph is a renowned player, a man who has a new woman every week. He is not the kind of man Vanessa needs, but as she feels that no man wants a ready made family, she is willing to proposition Ralph for one night of sex, no strings attached. At first Ralph is surprised, then intrigued, especially when he finds out that he is her first lover. Vanessa captivates him like no other woman before and now he will have to fight tooth and nail to prove to Vanessa that his wandering days are over. He now wants to prove to her what kind of man he really is and break through her defenses. Never was seduction so sweet, and so painful.
At first, when I started reading this book, I thought...ok, boy meets girl, girl propositions boy, they fall in love and happy ever after. But, I was in for a surprise, as Bette Ford has written a truly exciting story that will captivate every reader. Ralph certainly has his work cut out for him and Vanessa is convinced that he is not the man for him. Then the added conflict of the biological father of the twins wanting custody after ignoring them makes this story even more exciting. The reader finds out exactly what kind of man Ralph really is behind his facade and this is a heartwarming, highly sensual story. The love scenes are toe curling and sensual. I loved every minute reading this story and I know the reader will too. This is the third book in a series and I have got to get the other two as soon as possible. You will want to too!
