Hot as Hell

Rate this book
Amara Jackson had been living the typical American dream. Until, that is, she found that her husband was cheating on her, every chance he got.

So, putting her 5-year marriage behind her, she heads to the Caribbean with her vivacious and fun-loving sister to try and rediscover the adventurous and carefree girl she used to be.

Not looking for much more than some relaxation in the sun, umbrella drinks and, maybe, one or two hot men, Amara was floored when she met seductive billionaire Grey Nichols, and was quickly swept up into his exciting world of 5-star luxury, private jets, and wild, wild sex. After her ex-husband’s neglect over the past few years, Grey’s passion, attentiveness, six-pack abs, and eagerness to treat her like a princess, was exactly what the doctor ordered.

Not that she’s complaining, in the back of her mind, Amara can’t stop wondering why Grey is spoiling her so much. Why, after only a few days together, is he suggesting they jet off together to his private island? Why does he seem so keen to introduce her to his parents?

Amara discovers, with a little digging, that this gorgeous man’s motives towards her might not be as honest as he makes out, and that he may have some more nefarious plans for her.

A standalone BWWM contemporary romance, Hot as Hell is an exotic adventure set in a rich man’s paradise, where the days are hot and the nights are scorching.

Hot As Hell was a sweet romance novel with a lot of steam. It was a fast read and had a great pace. The only thing I didn't like about this book was the abrupt ending. I feel like it needed more, because the ending came out of nowhere. That being said I really loved this book and would recommend it to anyone who wants a bit more steam in their life.

Amara was in a funk. She had been cheated on by her husband and had no confidence left. When her sister finds out, she decides they need a vacation. Amara knows she's going to end up having a blast with drinks on the beach and maybe a few men in the process, but she never expected to meet a sexy and seductive billionaire. Why not be spoiled and have some fun on vacation?

This was a sweet short read for me. There was drama, fire in the bedroom, and sweet love at the end. All the ingredients for an amazing book. That being said, it really wasn't something I would re-read. The writing was great, the characters though left something to be desired. Don't get me wrong it was a nice read. It was light, even with the few instances of drama. Well written with the exception of what I would consider unfulfilled character development. For that reason I have to give it three stars. But it was a job well done! I will recommend it to friends looking for a light steamy read!!

This was a fast sweet read. The characters were not as well developed and the ending was quick ...but it was a short story not much time I guess.
