Hmm... So, there are two...catalysts (I think that's the right word) in this story. The first is when Kat's man-eating friend Celia challenges her to get their possibly sexy neighbor naked by the weekend. Kat's had her eye on Taye for a while. If she loses the bet and Celia sinks her claws in him, Kat knows there's no way Taye would ever be interested in her. Or so she believes.
The second catalyst is when Taye accidentally receives a box with black fishnet thigh highs and a double-headed dildo that were meant for his oh-so-sweet neighbor Kat. The dildo, he finds out, isn't for her but the thigh highs are. He has a thing for them and an urgent need to see them on her. With stilettos. *grins*
Okay. Now, truthfully, I thought this was going to be a fast read with almost 75-90% of the book covering Taye and Kat's bedroom adventures. But it wasn't. There was honest to God attraction between them. And there were emotions too. I mean, their hearts were just as invested as their bodies which made their separation more painful than I anticipated. Mind you, it was because Kat mumbled about winning that stupid bet and Taye assuming instead of asking, but still. The fact that they were both hurting and angry and emotional meant what they shared was more than physical.
I liked this story. It wasn't just sex. It was a relationship, heart and mind, body and, hopefully, soul. It's short, fast-paced, but there is depth to Taye and Kat I wasn't expecting. Well done, Ms. Edwards. I hope to read more of what you have written and will write.
