CLICK TO PURCHASE!Tess Garrity is forty-five and a widow. She rents a cabin in the mountains to take some down time and re-evaluate her rather boring life. She’s quite attracted to the handsome young man who lives in the cabin next door and who she spies from time to time. Daniel Rios is more than attracted to the sexy, older woman. He wants her with a yearning he’s never felt before but first he needs to get rid of an unwelcome houseguest before approaching Tess. When he makes his move however, who knew the sparks would fly and the nights would become hot and sultry. Daniel now needs to tempt Tess to take a second chance on love, with him. It’s a seductive challenge he is prepared to meet and win.
Regina Carlysle has written an uber-hot story with lots of hot sex. Tess is a woman who has had a mediocre marriage and since her husband passed on has had no sex. Daniel meets her in a moment of vulnerability and things take off pretty fast. In my opinion though, although this book is well written, I did find the relationship progressing a little too fast, and there were too many sex scenes. I believe that if the sex scenes were all taken out, there wouldn’t be much left of the story. I usually like a good story with an older heroine and a younger man. I have nothing against graphic sex, though I found one sex scene slightly distasteful. Apart from these points, it was an ok story.
