[Dakota Storm · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and sweet. I enjoyed the characters especially Ian, he's a sexy as hell bodyguard with his Scottish brogue (Love a sexy brogue). I knew their "arrangement" wouldn't last and I know they knew too (Wink). I loved these two characters together, their friends, very close and there for each other and eventually so much more, their lust and love for each other was plain to see. I liked Ewan too, he'll find his love one day too...very sweet and romantic read 4 stars review by Nanee at upallnightreadallday.blogspot.com
