Hollywood actress Stephanie Ellory worked hard to get where she is in her career, but when Ronan Roth finally ends their years long secret relationship, Step realizes that realizes that there are some things you can't take for granted, and a good man is one of them.
I've never read a book so fast in my life and that's a good thing! This book kept me interested all the way through, and it just wasn’t the sex scenes either, although those were nice and steamy. Ms. Addams creates characters you can quickly connect with, making the comedic, the fights and the downright steamy more enticing. The only drawback was that it wasn't long enough. I would have liked to see this couple's heartache dragged out a bit more. It felt as though Stephanie learned her lesson too quickly.
Overall, a very good read.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I have to confess that this book is the second in a shared-world series I created and it was dedicated to me (<3), so I might be a little bit biased :P
Angela Addams brings her smoking hot sex scenes to the Cupid's Conquests series in a tale of true love sidelined by ambition. Steph and Ronan fell in love in high school with a little help from Cupid, but her dreams of escaping the small town for Tinseltown pushed Ronan to nothing but a booty call between Hollywood romances. The characters' passion was portrayed in vivid detail and Ronan's hatred for their situation was heart-breaking when paired with the knowledge that because of Cupid's arrow, he was stuck loving a woman who wouldn't give him her all.

An enjoyable little sequel in the Cupid's Conquest series. In my review for Gunshy I speculated about each story being about a different couple, that is indeed what's happening in this.
Ronan is a nice male lead but I found myself really disliking Steph. She's one of those spoiled little brats that blames everything on someone else. Even though I knew they were going to end up together, I still think Ronan could do better. There were a few little editing mistakes in this, just little things but they still bug me. And I know that has nothing to do with the story, it's a personal bug of mine. The story was good and a nice follow on from Gunshy.
