Five Star Seduction

The Alexanders of Beverly Hills #4

by Jacquelin Thomas

She knows how to seduce a man in style! Fresh out of grad school, Zaire Alexander dreams of someday becoming a major force in her family-owned chain of Beverly Hills hotels. But the heiress and self-motivated go-getter has another goal for her immediate future: seduce Tyrese Bemingham. Too bad the sexy powerhouse attorney seems just as determined to resist her. As lead counsel for the prestigious Alexander-DePaul luxury empire, Tyrese has a lot riding on this gig. But he keeps running into the exotic, strong-willed beauty, who makes it clear she’s interested--and available. In the etiquette of romance, dating the boss’s daughter is a definite don’t. And Tyrese has had enough heartbreak for two lifetimes. So why is he finding it so hard to say no, especially after Zaire’s life is threatened? All he knows is he can’t lose her…even if it means risking everything that matters most. The Alexanders of Beverly Hills

Enjoyable reading

The writing ✍🏾 is good, as usual to me, concerning this author's works. The characters and storyline could be realistic. This is my favorite of the series with one book before the series ends.

Some of the character names previous situations are not the same and suggest an story board.

The plot was good, but the book was not enticing to read. It missed a lot of if build up or momentum. Overall, an ok read.

Zaire got her man. She didn’t come to play. It was almost like “ He’s the one”, and she made that manifest. Despite an unfortunate situation, this man stood by her and was just what she needed to become an over comer.

Another book in this series that I am not completely happy with. There were just too many inconsistencies with names, times, info, and sequence within this story and the previous book. That made things look like the author did not pay attention to her work(bk) before this one.

The story in general was a nice journey to romance. They took time to build the relationship. Even when he made a major mistake she could see around things to make a life altering decision.

Zaire Alexander plan is to make it on her own, with out the use of her family name or connections. Tyrese Beningham only wants to be the best lawyer the Alexander family has ever employed. In walks trouble in the form of an ex-girlfriend and an attack on Zaire life. How do Zaire and Tyrese handle adversity.

Storyline predictable and cheesy. When the characters professed their love for one another without showing (different from telling) what lead to it the book became a wrap. Took me forever to get past the third chapter and by chapter 12 I skimmed through just to find out whodunit.

Zaire's Story

Zaire's Story

The Alexander Saga continues with this fourth book. I loved the suspenseful situations that occur, along with the series' trademark hot romance, and family love.

Superb

I really enjoy this book with the series. Ms. Thomas tells stories that can happen to everyone, life events and how to overcome. Love can conquer all with the right partner.

It was enjoyable, but the story was a bit scattered at times. Loved the characters and the basic story idea.
