About the author

While attending Central Michigan University, she discovered her love for writing and that those same ingredients blend for the perfect romance. Over the years and across the genres, Jodi has found that one thing remains the same…a dash of heat and humor and a heaping spoonful of love make for the best recipe of all.

Coming In First: Lissa Malone loves bad boys, but slam bam thank you ma’am is leaving her body thirsting for much, much more.

Not A Second Too Late: Genevieve Louton wanted a fun, sexy bachelorette night—when her uptight sister crashed the party she had to find her own male stripper. Now she’s eying the rock hard stud across the bar, imagining his slow, seductive dance inside her house afire…

Third Time’s A Charm: To help Holly Daringer forget her worries, her cousin has come up with the perfect solution: a week of paid sex with a true professional. And the moment he buries himself deep inside her body, she has only one thought: ecstasy, ecstasy, ecstasy…


My review:

These are three heated erotic contemporary romances. So yes, there is a lot of sex. I found the characters to be well developed. The stories are well linked. Book is entertaining and hot and so are the three men in the stories.

The females are all friends just as the men are. Each of the females have different needs but their desires are similar. The men are hunks who also happen to be friends and business partners. Lots and lots of sex. It was a fun read.

Well this was one raunchy little book! This is an anthology of three stories by one author, and they are connected by the occupations of the heroes of each. When I started the first story, 'Coming In First', I figured it was going to be a book of sexy fluff with not much story. I realized not too long into it, that there definitely was substance there, and while I never got real fond of the heroine, I enjoyed the story enough to continue, and I am so glad I did! The second story 'Not A Second Too Late'was much better, a really good tale that I thoroughly enjoyed, and the third and final 'Third Time's A Charm' dealt with some serious issues and it was a winner too. There's lots of sex in this book, but for me, it was well written, and added to the stories. I would definitely read this one again, and would recommend to anyone who likes VERY sexy contemporary romance that also tells a decent story!

Three male friends. Three male friends who own a construction company but have another business when they are not working at their main job-Male Gigolo's.

They all seem to think that falling in love is not for them however once they meet that special but different girl, they are not quite sure if they want to continue the gigolo part of the business. The construction business is not making any money at the moment so they are depending entirely on the gigolo part of the business, in which they split all of the profits.

Since the gigolo part of the business is the only resource coming in for the three men, you can imagine how much hot, heated, erotic sex is in this book.

Good read - 3 interconnected stories Where do they find handymen who look like that? Inquiring minds want to know! The ones around here are grizzled retirees picking up a little spare cash...
