Desire #1

Desire

Rate this book
Desire is when you close your eyes, think of what you want...then you can smell it, taste it, and feel it stroking your skin. It's almost better than sex...almost.

Communications Specialist Nick Lavery never thought he would be the recipient of a Dear John letter. When his girlfriend ran off with another man, she left it taped to the refrigerator door. He wasn't thinking about meeting anyone new when he decided to stop for a cup of coffee to drown his sorrows.

Tasha Kelly was taking a much needed break from her job as a supply store chain manager at the local coffee shop when she noticed him at the counter ordering something to drink. It was then that she started craving more than caffeine...

As always Marie Rochelle did a great job mixing sensual and romance together. I enjoyed reading the love story of Nick and Tasha. How they met was just meant to be. I wanted to reach through the book a couple of times to shake Nick but to me that is the sign of a great book. If I am not invested, I would stop reading. Tasha showed her strength and made me proud when she was willing to walk away but I was so happy she didn't! Great story!

The eye opener

Well, I read the stories in reverse order. These can be read as stand alone stories but I think it's better once you read all three. Nick and Tasha had an instant connection that Nick never had with Carrie.
I liked their meeting and getting to know each other. Of coarse there has to be a conflict that jeopardized everything because of a calculated risk. There were editing errors that were a little disruptive to the point it lost a star. The other issue is that the love Stories for Nick, Richie and Tate end too soon. I wanted the rest of the happily ever after.
This story was more incomplete because the closure for the whole Carrie thing was not finished. Good story, just falls short of an amazing ending.

BAD. Bad bad bad bad! This was so bad I actually put in second place the lack of editing, wich is a big red flag for me. But in this case it was nothing compared to how bas the story is. DOES NOT EVEN DESERVE 1 STAR.

Too formulaic

Such a typical bwwm book it was boring. Gorgeous man meet woman, they fall in love in 2 minutes, some silly misunderstanding and hea. The heroine was too dull for the book to really be interesting? She was insecure, immature and obsessed with his ex. Pass

I'm always happy with a book about true love and passion where the man has to work for the woman he loves and this author always comes with that definitely recommend!!

He finally met his match!

Nick didn't expect to fall for Tasha, the little spitfire that paid for his coffee during his caffeine deprived rant! Good thing Tasha is just as interested in him as Nick is in her!

It was ok

The book was too short. The book needed more plot to it. This book should have been 99 cents instead of 2.99. If you want to read a short simple book this book is for you.

I haven't finished yet, but I already know how I feel about this book. I don't hate it but I don't like it either; it was just completely lacking in everything...2 stars for effort.
