Alex Harper is on his way to Las Vegas to try to secure one and possibly two consulting contracts. On the first flight segment, Alex notices a stunning young woman coming down the aisle. His fantasies race before he can reign in his imagination. He assumes she is on this flight going to meet some 6’-3” military hunk who would not take kindly to his thoughts. Upon landing Alex makes his way to the next connection to Las Vegas.
Fate enters the situation when the young woman he was ogling turns up at the same gate, and expresses her horror that the flight is delayed. When Alex asks why it bothers her so much, she confesses that she is terrified of flying, and just wants to get it over with.
To calm her nerves, he invites her for drinks in the airlines executive lounge. As the alcohol relaxes Jessica, she tells Alex that her divorce was finalized that day, and she is traveling to Las Vegas to become the prostitute her ex-husband always wanted… and now will never see Alex gets a first class upgrade for her, and Jessica decides to repay his kindness in the traditional way sexy women with limited funds repay a kindly gentlemen.
In Las Vegas Alex invites Jessica to go to dinner the following evening with his prospective client. To explain who this stunning woman is, Alex tells the client that she is his Marketing Assistant. At the end of the evening the client makes it clear to Alex that he wants Jessica to come alone, to negotiate the contract in the time honored way. Jessica tells Alex that she will get him the contract in exchange for his becoming her protector.
Then she adds, and gets, a 10% marketing fee to his prior over $1 Million contract amount. That business arrangement proves so lucrative that Alex finds himself wondering if he has become a really smart business man or… perhaps just a pimp.
4 Paws – Sex, Lust, Fantasy! Can I get a Hell Yeah!!
I would like to thank Abby Adams Publishing for sending me a copy of this book to read and review,I very much appreciate it. Just to make you all aware, the Abby Adams books (series) are written by different authors, to make things interesting, so to say!
A long blurb? Yeah I know what you mean but I suppose it outlines the book fairly well. Before you ask, this in an E-R-O-T-I-C-A, with a business/pimp style mix … But don’t think pimp as in the guys with big purple velvet coats from ‘Shaft’, this has way more class to it and more … Erm … Sex!
What to say? The first town pages really throws you in to the deep end, talk about a shocker. It felt like the story line was put in hold for a moment so they could put a crap lad of sex in there, then we got back to the story again!? Confused yet … Not the only one! But apart from that it is well written … However … I can’t stand a book that uses the word c**t. *shakes fist* I hate that word and to use it in a novel, even an erotica is unforgivable. There are better words or descriptions about there than can be used … It’s called a dictionary and thesaurus … Try using them if that is the only word you can think of to use at that point during your writing!!!
Rant over, lets talk about the characters. Jessica – OMG, I actually came to love her. At first I just though, urgh two dimensional slut but after a few more chapters she became a well rounded character, with flaws and a shitty past with an ex-husband – of whom has serious issues and needs a kick in the bollocks. Yes, okay she likes sex – I mean who doesn’t – but she becomes a slave/pet so to say to Alex – a guy she has a chance encounter with on a place – who by the way, is old enough to be her DAD. A little creepy! But it works … somehow … and she helps him obtain business contracts for *coughs* sexual favours? Twisted I know but as it went on something’s happened and I actually found myself laughing at some of the things she does and says – she really cracked me up at times. She is strong, a little sadistic and has an awesome mean streak all women should be proud of!!
Now we need to talk about Alex – he is a business man who deal in construction/design – something like that. Anyway, he’s old – yep, as in grey hairs on chest old. Anyway he meets Jessica, as I previously stated and they get it on. After he starts introducing her to his clients, she then asks his ‘permission’ to provide sexual acts, which help him win his contracts and make crap loads of money!! But he doesn’t pimp her out like some common whore – you can tell by the way he treats her, that he does actually care about her in a strange, twisted sort of way. She actually offers herself to him as his slave and for him to become her master – he even gives her a collar *rolls eyes* I know, I know.
The book is actually well written apart from a few choice words but at the same time I felt like this author wrote the book after reading ’50 Shades of Grey’ because of the whole submission and dominance theme that runs through it. I mean the high class ‘whore’ bit gives it an interesting twist – think ‘Pretty Woman’ but this type of writing is over done now and something more ‘refreshing’ I think would have been better suited for the book. So as a result I can only give this book a 4 Paw rating – I wanted so much to give it 5 but the use of c**t and the sex/slave/master theme, I just couldn’t.
