Melanie, Lanie for short, was an independent and athletic young woman who prided herself on her looks and healthy lifestyle. She was active in every way, and needed no one. She had men chasing after her and never lacked for male attention.
Alexander, Xander to his friends, was a roofer who worked for the company Helping Hands Construction. He was a great looking guy and knew it. He was dominating and loved having everything his way. He was always in charge.
After a few days of suffering with leaks around her condominium, Lanie decides it's time to call in a contractor to repair the holes. Hearing Xander's voice on the phone excited her. She couldn't wait to meet him and see if his looks matched his voice.
When he shows up, she isn't disappointed. He is everything his voice led her to believe, and more. She greets him, thinking she could suggest a little fun, but little did she know he had his own ideas of what kind of payment he would accept.
He takes the tour of her home, inspecting the leaks to come up with a plan for repairs. He also had one philosophy: Always take payment before the work. Nail the details before exerting energy on any project.
So they worked together to nail out the details of the work order....
What were the details? Well, you will just have to buy or borrow the book to find out.

Ashlee Shades is a Contemporary Romance author who enjoys writing sensual and hot romance stories featuring alpha bad boys, independent heroines, and sometimes, she sneaks in sweet moments between the leading characters.
Ashlee enjoys spending her days either reading when she's not writing...or hanging out on social media (as much as her husband and two teenage boys will allow). What an addiction, right?! Her reading and writing genre of choice is steamy romance.
I came across Ashlee Shades on Twitter and Facebook, and noticing that she was an author of erotica I thought I would check out one of her short stories to see if I enjoyed her style.
What I found was an intelligent somewhat raunchy person beneath the elegant facade of her avi. The book follows the main character ‘Lanie’ who has developed a leak in her house. (as well as in her panties) She is the typical ‘girl next door’ the one every boy wants to screw. She knows that she is hot and strives daily to keep her figure in trim with a well practiced fitness regime.
Then enters ‘Xander’ from the company ‘Helping hands’ to come and asses her leak. She is immediately struck by his hunky good looks and is desperate him to give her the release she so desires.
When he takes control of the situation she is taken aback not even looking her in the eye. This is new for her, but she enjoys his alpha male dominant style.
When he asks for payment up front she is only too happy to oblige.....
The book is written in the first person, and reads almost like Lanie personal sex diary. For a short story it is well thought out, and maybe a fantasy but kind of made me want to go out and buy a tape measure!!
I thoroughly enjoyed the story and can recommend it to any avid readers of this genre.
