Letting Loose!

by Mara Fox

A stripper. That's what tough lawyer Tina Henderson needs. A wild night with "The Bandit" stripper will make her forget all about smooth attorney Tyler Walden. The fling with Tyler was incredibly satisfying, but becoming way too cozy. And Tina doesn't do relationships. So she'll do The Bandit instead. Tyler knows it's crazy to pose as the masked bandit stripper at Tina's best friend's bachelorette party. But Tyler always gets what he wants--in the courtroom and the bedroom. And he wants strong, sexy Tina. She obviously wants The Bandit, too, because she invites him to give her a private performance.

But will Tina be angry that Tyler tricked her? Or pleased to see this particular lawyer again--without his briefs?

Slightly disappointing Blaze romance
3 stars

I'll admit that this Blaze left me slightly disappointed and I didn't feel it was up to the standard of other books from this line.

Tina was an exceptionally strong character but I felt that she was a stereotype and really wasn't developed throughout the story. As well as that, at the beginning of the book she decides she will pay the stripper for sex which really stopped me from identifying with, or even liking her. Tyler was a good enough character but you hardly ever learn anything about him other than the superficial. And again, at the beginning of the story - he decided to use his current date to make Tina jealous - hardly hero behaviour!

The actual plot of the story was okay - basically concentrating on Tina's changing feelings towards Tyler and relationships in general. It didn't offer anything new but it wasn't truly terrible.

My biggest complaint was the sex scenes. There were plenty of them and I'll admit that they were hot and sexy - however they read like the script of a cheesy 80s porn flick. It wasn't sensual or romantic and the dialogue during the scenes was so cringe worthy it was embarrassing.

Having said all that, I did manage to finish this book and it was an easy read which is always a plus. It didn't offer anything particularly exciting or new and it's not a book that I would keep, however it's certainly not offensive so if you like this author or are looking for a quick read then this book could be for you.
