Passion

by C.M. Deveraux

In the complicated world of dating, twenty-nine-year-old Las Vegas realtor Jess Hudson still has a lot to learn. On the rebound yet again after walking in on her live-in boyfriend schtupping his under-aged secretary, Jess is starting to believe she'll never find true love, not the lasting kind.


A chance encounter leads Jess to sex and relationship therapist Veronica Fox. Veronica claims she has the ability to transform Jess from a doormat men walk all over and then discard, into the kind of woman who will finally find the kind of passionate, lasting relationship she desires.


The question is...when Jess meets Mr. Right, will she pull it off?

About the author

Most people think I'm an introvert, the quiet girl, the one lurking in the corner of a high-end coffee shop, sipping my chai tea, glancing at them, glancing at you. I certainly look the part. To see me, you'd think I belonged in the forest, running free with a group of sweet-faced fairies, instead of sitting in front of my laptop, feverishly penning my next racy scene.

Maybe I am introverted. Or maybe, just maybe, I'm a proper girl sometimes, and an entirely different girl other times. Read my books. Tell me what you think.

Short and hot...but kinda creepy, which I know was unintentional. The author was shooting for passionate, but unfortunately our Hero came off as lecherous on more than one occasion. If the story had been allowed to "breathe" instead of being such a rush job, I think the sort of situations I'm referring to would have been smoothed out. Or, maybe not? Maybe he was supposed to be exactly as he was--Vegas macho. And that's just not my thing.

This short introduction novella piques the reader's curiosity as Jess discovers and begins to explore her innermost sexual creature. while the School of Sex series is being released in 5 parts the author leaves us hanging unsure of where Jess's relationship with Richard will lead, kinky sex or a real romance; and now what will become of Sasha as she begins to drudge up her inner sexual kitten of her youth under Jesus's guidance? My one complaint: we have to wait for the next installment.

A rely good sexy read

I enjoyed the story and look forward to reading more from this author. I also enjoyed the book because her editor did a great job and I did not detect errors which is always a good thing.

Jesus story

pay it forward is a good thing. teaching someone to go for what they want feels good. getting what you want is better.
