The Gift

by Katie O'Connor

Sammy Jarvis is harboring a secret fantasy and desperately wants to make it a reality. She finally finds the courage to ask her adoring husband, Nick, for a special Christmas gift--one that will make her dreams come true. She wants Nick find her a woman to make love with.

What's a man to do? Stymied, Nick turns to his old college friend Carl, and the topic takes them down memory lane to a time when they'd been more than just friends. Rekindling their desires is easy, and they devise a plan for Sammy to meet Carl's girlfriend Gina.

When Sammy and Gina meet, clothing begins to fly. Being with Gina is everything that Sammy had imagined, but now she wants more. Her heart is big enough to encompass them all, but what will Nick think? Is there room in their marriage to accommodate her new-found love for Gina and Carl? Or will this tangled lover's heap destroy them all?

WOW.
Katie O'Connor has the gift to bring to life a fantasy many long for. With believable characters and arousal that is desirable, O'Connor draws you into the story line without even blinking an eye. Not only did she present the foursome lifestyle wrapped prettily in a gold trimmed box, but the ribbon smacks of lust, love and steamy sex.

HOT. HOT. HOT.

I've read several of Katie O'Connor's contemporary romances and I was excited to give her erotica a try. Sinfully sexy and fantasy-filled, The Gift was definitely a book to get hot and bothered about. The passion played out on the pages right before my eyes. I can't wait to read more of O'Connor's lusty love stories.
