descriptionAll the covers for this series are basically the same so all my comments will remain the same as well for each book. I like the cover on this one a lot. Obviously, it is a great representation of the story (and series). It has good composition and title work as well.description

descriptionI have enjoyed every book in this series so far but at 50% I am choosing to set this one aside and call it a day. I just wasn't feeling it. One, I am not a fan of heroines that are female military personnel, so I have to admit I was disengaged from the beginning when I realized that is what this was going to entail. I also like my heroines less in your face and softer, so I never warmed up to Vanna. Even the way she spoke annoyed me to no end. Stud this and stud that...sigh. I don't know; everything just felt like it was all about sex without any romance. Of course, this one is LUST, so maybe that was the point! Then at the halfway point it took a turn that completely turned me off and that was the final straw. The author completely lost me at that point. I guess expecting to love all seven novellas was too much to ask for...sigh.description

Title: Lust
Author:F.G. Adams
Series:The Seven #6

Lust was a good 4 star read.

We start with Vanna being left at the altar, she makes a huge decision to join the Army.
We jump ahead to Savannah (Vanna) working at a hospital where she meets Styx. It is an instant connection between these two. Vanna was very happy to see Styx after her shift was done. They decide to go on a date and it gets hot and steamy from there.

Wild horses couldn’t keep me away from you and what you’re packing, stud.

The more they are together the closer they start to get. They share some of their past with each other. Styx learns why Vanna was left at the altar.

There is a huge twist that really shocked me, my heart went out to Ella and Vanna. And when the past comes face-to-face with Vanna, Styx was great. And Vanna also had to deal with several PTSD moments the past 6 months.

I wear a mask to cover the broken and confused emotions attempting to escape the dark prison I’ve enclosed them in. - Savannah

There is so much to this great Lust to love read. These two were great, they found something together that neither one of them had been looking for. I loved the comments that they would make to each other, I had some LOL moments. The sex between these two was off the charts hot. The ending was great and I enjoyed the epilogue. I wouldn’t mind reading more from these two. Thank you F.G. Adams for another good read, I look forward to reading more from this series.

Be prepared for emotions! Lust hits hard, love creeps in, terror strikes, rage gets mixed in, relief for a moment, PTSD rears its ugly head, and love finally brings the comfort blanket. This was such an awesome story. It was quick and witty and HOT! F.G. Adams never disappoints. This story was short but well written. The characters are solid. It was an intense read and I finished in one setting.

Lust is the sixth novella in The Seven collection, by F.G Adams. The Seven is a collection of seven stories, each of which is based on one of the seven deadly sins. There are seven incredibly talented authors, each with their own story to tell- their take on a particular ‘sin’ that happens to be the theme of the story they tell.
This story tells a tale of Lust, and what a tale it is! I have read a few of Ms. Adams books before and she never ceases to amaze me with her original, dynamic and memorable storylines- and this book is no different. For such a short story, there is a lot going on in it- it’s full of suspense, action, drama, danger, and passion. The story contains descriptions of sensitive topics, which the author handles with consideration and respect, but without shying away from portraying these topics in a very authentic way.
I love Savannah and Styx, and how their story is part of a bigger picture. Theirs is an insta-lust story that quickly develops into more. And when Savannah’s life is on the line, Styx will need to reach deep, and remember all his training if he has any chance of saving her.
I loved the quotes at the beginning of each chapter, they helped to set the mood and tone of the story.
Ms. Adams looks at the various forms of lust, not just physical/sexual lust, but also lust for life and lust for revenge- to name a few.
This may be a short story, but it isn’t short on content. I never felt like the story was rushed or cut short, it felt complete. It is a quick and easy read that will grab your attention from beginning to end.

Thank you, Ms. Adams!

Lust by FG Adams an amazing and thrilling five-star read. This is the sixth novella in The 7 series, each story tells a different story but they each have a theme they all stick to. I have read and loved several books by FG Adams so when I saw they were going to be part of this series I was so excited, and I am so glad these ladies didn’t let me down. Wow what a story, I loved the passion between Styx and Vanna leapt of the page, the chemistry was explosive and despite the fact its taboo and scary things happen. I only wish this story was longer. Well done ladies on a great story.

“Lust is when you love only what you love only what you see. Love is what you lust for what’s inside.” -Savannah Bushard
“I had something borrowed, something blue, and something new. My grandmother’s antique choker. A lacy blue garter belt, a gift from my college roommate, Missy. The tennis bracelet he had given me the night before in front of God and all our family and friends. My platinum blonde hair styled exactly the way he loved, cascading in long curls down my back.” Savannah Bushard was ready for the wedding of her dreams, ready to marry the man she thought was the man of her dreams. Until it all fell apart with one argument that she thought they had already had, already been on the same page on. Until he decided to break her heart in front of everyone she loved.
“When the church doors opened up wide and my daddy held my arm the tears began falling. He wasn’t there. He was gone. He had left me. So many broken promises.”
Savannah took this as a message that she needed a change in her life. She decides to become a nurse for the Army and we see her as a Second Lieutenant doing well with a new outlook on love, well lust is a better word for it just a year or two later.
“Play the field, reap the benefits, and move on, is my motto.”
All that is about to change just a little bit when she meets the handsome Styx.
“Lust is when the mind desires what the heard admires- undeniable, unattached sex.”
For a while things go well with the two this way because they both have the same ideals, lust, sex, no strings.
Then tragedy strikes and suddenly, Savannah finds herself living another day to see Styx again, and Styx finds himself frantic to get Savannah back. Surely this can’t just be your typical lust anymore can it?
“Lust for revenge is as poisonous as a strike from a hidden cobra!” – Styx Fuller
What will come of the two, can there be more than just one form of lust. Can this be love? Can they make it through a trauma?
“Everybody want’s happiness, nobody wants pain, but you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain.” – Savannah Bushard

The 7: Lust by FG Adams is book six of The 7 series that this author and six authors have written. This story is a short story that will keep you reading until the very last page. It has a little bit of everything in it, hot, steamy romance, action and some suspense. I loved this book and the twists and turns will leave you on the edge of your seat and the next minute needing ice water to cool off. This author pulled me in from the first word and I didn't move until I got to the last word. This is the story of Savannah and Styx. Savannah was left at the alter by the man of her dreams. She felt she just needed to get away, the first thing she sees when she comes out of the church is nurses wanted so she joined the military. She was left so heart broken that she vowed never to go through that again until she meets Styx. The chemistry and attraction was off the charts from the first meeting and just continued to heat up. Styx is a man who didn't want a relationship, he liked that he could do as he pleased until that day he went to pick up his friend at the hospital. Neither one of these two expected to meet each other that day or to find such an attraction. He just awakened something in her that she hasn't felt in a long time. You won't see the twists coming and you don't want to miss them either. Styx is a alpha male that just wants to possess her. She is feisty, independent, full of attitude and I loved her character. How long will they continue to deny each other what fate knows to be true? I loved these characters and the secondary characters are just as strong, connectable and lovable. I can't wait to see what the other six books and authors bring to this series! I highly recommend this story as I know you will want to see how hot and steamy these two get!

I have never read anything from this author, so I did not know what to expect, but I am so glad that I found a new author that I a can love to read. This is an extremely fast paced book and will keep you involved in the story all the way through the story. Savannah got a bad deal from the beginning of this book, but she is so strong. Her story is heartbreaking, but she shows more strength than most female leads in a book. I loved how she enlisted. The change she needed was just what made this book. Everything about her screamed to fight and that is what this woman did. Styxx is your typical enlister at the beginning. Only looking for that one night stand and be done and on with the next conquest. Funny how one person can change that in just a look. Styxx took one look at Savannah and that is all it took, but life isn't going to make this easy. With everything they are involved in, they are going to have to be strong throughout this book, because if they can make it through what is to come they will be able to conquer everything.


The story is told so well in this book that the intensity will keep you reading to the end. It is very fast paced. You will be able to get through this in a few hours, and still be thinking of the characters after the book. It is that good of a book. The details were vivid, but some of them were told with the sensitivity that they needed to be in this story. This isn't just about finding someone but also how people can be so manipulated and not even know it. There is not much I can tell you about this story, but I will tell you that you need to read this book, take the few hours out of your day and find this author. Hopefully you already found this author, but if you haven't you will not be disappointed and you will be able to add this author to the list that you read

The 7: Lust by F.G. Adams

5 Stars

This is my third book by this author and when I finished all I could think of is I want more!!

Lust is a story full of hot and steamy scenes, but that's not all..Its deals with some pretty serious subject matter as well. This is the story of Savannah and Styx who meet in an army hospital where one of Styx's best friends and teammates, Grayson, is being released after being injured on an assignment. Savannah, who ended up a nurse in the army after seeing a sign saying “we need nurses” “Join the army” while driving away from total heartbreak, was the nurse on duty when Grayson was being released. There was instant chemistry between Savannah and Styx and although any hookup between the two was a no-no according to army rules, they could not help the pure lust controlling every move they made, but when tragedy strikes and she disappears right before his eyes, is it over before it even had a chance to begin? Is there more to their relationship than just lust, or does it reach deeper than that?

I honestly went into this story thinking it would be non stop sex scenes and I was pleasantly surprised at how much content there was in such a short read. There are so many different issues this author took on in this book and it never felt rushed or crammed together. I LOVE this author and picked this up because of how much I've enjoyed her other books. She is a favorite and an automatic one click for me.

Loved Loved Loved it!!

Lust is usually equated with sex, but this book adds the dimension of lust as retribution.

After a failed wedding, Savannah makes the sudden decision to join the military. During her rounds at the hospital one day, she meets a man who sparks her lust. The attraction is mutual and she and Styx begin to hook up during their time off.

What starts off as pure physical lust is gradually starting to grow into something else but is abruptly cut short when Savannah and her best friend are kidnapped by the enemy. Being stationed overseas was risky to begin with, but now it has turned downright dangerous.

Styx blames himself for their abduction because he couldn’t reach Savannah in time. He is determined to do whatever it takes to get her back. As his unit plans a rescue operation, they discover one of their own is in on the kidnapping and has been working with the enemy.
When the enemy sends pictures of the abuse Savannah has endured, Styx lusts for blood. Someone is going to pay.

It only took a couple of hours to get through this book and even though it was brief, it is well written and engaging. I liked the fact that the authors spent time on the post-trauma healing that Savannah goes through instead of having life go on like nothing happened. It makes the story a bit more real and speaks to what it is like for people who experience PTSD.

The 7: Lust
By: F.G. Adams
5 out of 5 stars

The story The 7: Lust by F.G. Adams is just one story out of six written about the 7 deadly sins. I absolutely loved reading this book. It had my interest from the very first chapter and I didn’t want to put it down until I had read the last page. It is a story that was very emotional to read. It tells a wonderful tale of two people whose relationship starts out a physical one and then starts to turn into much more. When the two of them meet there is an instant attraction to each other. The chemistry between them is off the charts. Every time that these two are around each other the tension in the air is thick. This story has steamy love scenes and dirty talking back and forth. There also comes a time where one of them disappears. Will this disappearance mean the end of their relationship? What does the future hold for them both? I loved both the two main characters in this book and I wanted for them to find happiness together. It is also a story that had my emotions going up and down with every chapter that I read. This book is written by two authors writing under one name. I have read many of their stories and have found that I love their writing style and the characters that they create. I can’t wait to read what they write next!

Lust by FG Adams is book six in The Seven series. Each book in the series is one of the seven deadly sins with book six being Lust. This book is a novella, so it is a quick read but it snags your attention right from the beginning and you can't put it down!! This book has a little bit of everything which is sometimes hard to do in shorter books. There is lust (obviously!), hot romance and even some suspense.

The two main characters, Savannah and Styx, meet and it's instant attraction. The chemistry is off the charts. That's where the lust comes in. The relationship started out physical. That's all there was supposed to be to it but it morphed into something with so much more meaning. Things are just as they should be but a disappearance changes everything. Will that be the end to the relationship?

There is so much emotion packed into this book that you can't help but hope Savannah and Styx both get the happiness they deserve. I really enjoyed that even though this book is a novella (which I typically avoid), there is a lot packed into the book in a way that you get the full story but don't feel like everything was rushed. It's probably not easy to balance that so kudos to the author achieving that.

I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone even if you haven't read any of the other books in The Seven series.

The 7: Lust by F.G. Adams is an amazing and breathtaking read. This is book 6 in a 7-book series and can be read as a stand-alone (check out the series). The sixth deadly sin is lust. And this novel by F.G. Adams has that in spades. Join Styx and Savannah in this novel as they find out that there is more to life than just lust for each other. When Savannah disappears there’s nothing he can do, or is there? This novel has the characters from This is Our Life Series, so you will read about some familiar characters but more in depth about them and what they did before Trident Security. Any novel by F.G. Adams is a page turner and you won’t want to put it down. Lust is no different. These novel left goosebumps on my arms and had me glued to my chair because of the drama and romance that was developing in the plot and how Adams decided to deliver it to the reader was just awe-inspiring and jaw dropping that you will never see it coming. Adams is a talented author who knows not only romance but knows how to write a military romance so that they always get a happily ever after. But not before some movie worthy drama that you would think happened in real life instead of in a book. Fall in love with the characters and the author as you read, and you will be on the edge of your seat waiting for the next novel that comes out. Adams is addicting!

Savannah Bushard, Vanna, was suppose to have the wedding of her dreams with the man of her dreams. They were going to have their happily ever after, but her groom had other ideas. Left standing at the church because he couldn’t deal with the issue that he already knew about. Her devastation was real, but her resolve is absolute. She will not let anyone take from her again. But Styx Fuller is not just anyone. He is sex on a stick walking and causes her lustful thoughts to ignite to the most intense way.

WOW! FG Adams, I solute you.

As the first book that I have read from this author, I am blown away. The sex scenes are hot, the dialogue between the characters is quick and witty, and the pace of the story is phenomenal. However, it was too short!!! I wanted MORE! Be warned, there are some bad non-consensual triggers in this story.

But this story is not just about the trauma that Vanna endures, but also her path to overcoming that trauma. Styx stays by her side from the beginning to the end and he shows his love. This is a beautiful, yet heart wrenching, story of strength and endurance. Two thumbs up and a highly recommend for this author.

I just finished reading The 7: Lust - by F.G. Adams.

I loved Savannah and her character!
She’s a tough cookie but my heart ached for her at times.

Styx is a man after my own recipe! I couldn’t have cooked up a yummier man, if I had tried.

This is a story that takes you on an emotional rollercoaster - one that I wasn’t prepared for as it usually takes a longer book before I get so heavily invested.

F.G. Adams blew me out of the water! Wow!

I haven’t read the other books in the series but I’ll be fixing that!

I just wish someone had warned me before I started this book so I’ll do my best to tell you what I would have liked to know before starting this book.

You need a few hours, uninterrupted if at all possible because you won’t want to put this down.
More importantly, get an icy hot towel and wrap it around your neck and if you have a fan, place it on the highest setting in front of you.
And as a sidenote, if you use glasses, have tissues next to you so you can haul them off and wipe the steam away - wipe as needed. - Talk about HAWT!

This book was emotional, funny and the sex scenes are absolutely going to blow your socks off!

I loved everything about this book and I’m lusting for more (<--- see what I did there?).

5 stars from me!

WOW, there are no words to describe how much I loved this book, I couldn't put it down until it was finished. This is the sixth book in The Seven series. This book was written by FG Adam.
This story takes a look at Savannah and where her life is going. Savannah was dealt a bad deal from the start and made a decision about her health with the man she thought she would spend the rest of her life with. This decision would not allow her to have children. Well on her wedding day she is left at the altar.
Savannah didn't know where her life was heading until she saw a billboard to enlist in the Army, so this is what she did. Savannah joined the Army as a nurse.
On this particular day at work, she meets sex on legs (Stix) and the sexual chemistry between these two is through the roof. But neither one of these two wants anything serious.That is until Savannah and her Friend are kidnapped from the base. You will just have to pick up this book and read it because I don't want to give too much away. I can honestly guarantee you want to know if these two get there happily ever after. You won't be disappointed with this one.

The 7:Lust by F.G. Adams

 

The 7 : Lust by F.G.Adams is one story out of six about the 7 deadly sins. This was my first book by this author and it won't be the last.Holy Cow I freaking loved this short but hot and sexy read.I was drawn in from the beginning and was upset when I read the last page,I'd loved for it to be longer but man did this author nail it.This story is about Styx and Savannah.This is about Lust and two people who fall quick and hard in lust with each other ,but is it just Lust or is there more?These two the chemistry between them is just off the dang charts,I'd swear sparks were flying it got so hot.These Teo can't keep there hands off each other,everytime there around each other there clothes come off.This story had hot and steamy but there's also a few twists and turns that will come put of nowhere and you will be shocked .This is a emotional roller-coaster ride at times and I had to break out the kleenex, but so worth it.I love this author and the style of writing.I want more that's for sure. I definitely recommend this book You won't be disappointed I know I wasn't. I can't wait to read more from F.G.Adams.

7 authors, 7 novellas, 7 deadly sins. Lust is Book #6 in The 7 series.

"Everybody wants happiness, nobody wants pain, but you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain."

Her plans didn't turn out the way she expected them to. From rejected bride in Texas to the horrors of Afghanistan. She’s an officer and he’s enlisted. Two magnets pulled together by an unknown force. Lust controls every action between them. A hunger so powerful it consumes them both. Until the unthinkable happens, under cover of betrayal and treachery.

First stage: grief and denial. Second stage: anger. Third stage: bargaining. Fourth stage: depression. Fifth stage: acceptance.

"The lust for acceptance, that stealthy being that enters the house as a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master. It’s an ever-present force that can’t be denied. And I really don’t give a shit anymore."

Lust is a beautiful story. It’s short, sharp, and shattering. I loved it. Bravo.

Happy reading!

Lust (The Seven #6)
By F.G. Adams
5 stars

AMAZING!! Just completely 100% amazing! 77 pages of outstanding writing – not that I really expected anything less from this author! Lust is part of a seven set of novellas based on the seven deadly sins. Each one is written by a different talented author! It really didn’t take me long to read but my gosh did it pack a punch. It was hot, it was thrilling and it was indeed full of lust!
Savannah and Styx were amazing characters. The way the author brought their story to life was just so brilliant, I really felt like I was there with the characters. I could feel their emotions and that ending – yes there were tears! I couldn’t help but fall in love with Styx – there was just something about him that drew me into him and the connection he had with Savannah and his need to protect her was just adorable!
As always I look forward to reading more from this author in the future but I also can’t wait to read the other novellas in this series!

The 7: Lust #6
By F.G Adams

Lust is the sixth book in the 7 series by FG Adams. To be honest I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book, but found it to be an enjoyable story. Its good to read about Savannah who has been given a strong character. Savannah is a nurse who joined the military after a failed wedding. Styx is a man who decided long ago that he is never going to settle down but have different girls all they time if he so chose to. That is until the day that he met Savannah. I couldn’t believe how explosive the chemistry was between these two. Now his game plan has changed, so now will he let the chemistry between them continue to sizzle or let is come to an end. This is a small book, but I can tell you its action packed from just about the start. There is surprise at the end of the book which I am not going to touch on. There may also be parts of the book that you wont care much for, but then there are parts in all books t hat we may not care for. Enjoy this fast paced, action packed book.

"Lust is when you love only what you see. Love is what you lust for what's inside.~Savannah Bushard~
Lust is a strong emotion and can take any form such as Lust for sex, expensive objects or power. It is a psychological force producing intense wanting for an object or circumstance fulfilling the emotion such as lust for life or revenge.
This was a short novella, but boy was it jammed packed! It had humor, drama and was very emotional. Savannah was left at the alter, she was devastated so she decides to take charge of her life. She sees a sign for nurses needed for the Army and signs up. Her new motto concerning love is play the field, reap the benefits and move on. That was working until she comes face to face with a soldier named Styx, Bam instant chemistry between them. It had a life force of its own. The twist in the story took me by surprise, I never saw it coming. The game changes then and so does the rules. A must read

The 7: Lust – F.G. Adams

5 star review

“Lust is when the mind desires what the heart admires.”

Lust by F.G. Adams is the 6th novella in the collection The 7. This collection of novellas is written by 7 different authors on the 7 deadly sins. This was the first novella I read but it won’t be my last because this one was phenomenal. This story is dark, filled with blood, sweat, and tears. It’s a novella that completely captured my attention from the very beginning. Everything is so detailed and the characters are very well developed given that it’s a novella.

Lust follows Savannah and Styx, two characters with a strong driven attitude. They know what they want and they go for it. Their interactions were so hot and sensual, they clicked instantly and I loved reading their story. Although this story is not for the faint of heart, it’s dark, twisted, heart wrenching, and at times hard to stomach. This novella is hauntingly beautiful and I would absolutely recommend it to others!

The Seven are books written by F.G. Adams based on the seven deadly sins. Lust is book 6 of 7, and I just loved this book. I actually picked up the rest of the series after starting this one because it was so good. Lust is about a couple that starts out in just a physical relationship with no strings, but feelings start to develop like they normally do in these situations. Lust is full of steamy sex scenes, dirty talk and enough hard core action that it could make anyone have to fan themselves. I do wish that this book was a bit longer as I wanted to know more about Styx and Savannah, because their chemistry was just so far off the charts that I couldn’t hold back from reading this book in one sitting. If you are looking for a great series that has a little bit of everything, then this series is sure to not disappoint.

The 7: Lust by F. G. Adams

Four stars
I enjoy this authors stories. The characters are always interesting and have unique backgrounds. In this book we follow Savannah and Styx both in the service and serving their time in Afghanistan. The story is a quick read and has it's good and bad parts. I didn’t like the constant nicknames and the way Savannah talked. I felt like it was forced and not really smoothed like normal conversations. But the story was fun and sad I was really surprised by the ending and the trauma that the author wrote about. This story was truly about lust from the very beginning our main characters had pure lust for each other. They didn’t hide it or try to sugar coat it for anything else. Was it a little rushed but I guess when your in war that doesn’t matter. I can’t really say more without giving a spoiler. I definitely think this is a must read.

Lust is book 6 in The 7 series. This one is by FG Adams. They are stand alone novellas. It’s the first I’ve read in the series and by this author.

First of all, cool cover. This story is about Savannah and Styx, and it’s not only about the sexy kind of lust. There are interesting quotes at the beginning of each chapter, and there is a LOT going on! About halfway through there is a shocking turn of events that sort of changes the pace and feel of the whole book.

Savannah in particular is a fierce and strong woman to have overcome so much in her life. She deserves her happy ever after. Styx is a good guy and both characters appear in another book by this author. Although I didn’t love all the nicknames, I enjoyed this novella and would read more in this series for sure. I finished it in one sitting.

I loved loved loved loved this book.

This book is the 6th book in the 7 deadly sin book series and a this book will NOT disappoint. From the first page to the very last, the book held my interest and I was able to finish in one sitting. I simply just loved this book and the characters. The love scenes were hot, the characters who draw you in and the setting made this story even more intriguing.

Styx and Savannah both are in the military and they both WANT each other, its an attraction they both felt right from the start. They lust they have just is not about sexual lust, its the lust to survive in the war, the lust to be truly happy in life, lust to not let PTSD control you, and the lust to be with the one who is meant for you!!!

While I loved everything about this book, i simply wished it was longer because i loved Styx and Savannah that much!!!!

Lust by F.G Adams
4 Stars

Lust is book six in The Seven series. Seven different authors writing about the seven deadly sins. As the title suggests, this story is about lust, not only sexual but a lust for revenge as well. Savannah and Styx definitely have chemistry. From the moment they see each other, the desire is palpable. Neither one is looking for a serious relationship. No strings attached works for both of them. Something dangerous and violent happens which makes both realize they need each other more than they thought.

The story takes place in the military while they are stationed in Afghanistan. It shows what can happen to females in the army and the after effects. Aside from the way Savannah spoke ( which was annoying), I enjoyed the book. I have read other books by F.G Adams and I haven’t been disappointed yet.

Lust (The Seven #6) by F.G. Adams

F.G. Adams’ addition to The Seven novella series, Lust, was an interesting story with a strong female main character. This and a sexy hot military man would normally win me over immediately, but this story fell flat for me. I give the story a 3 star rating. As with any novella, there was a lot of activity packed into a small number of pages. There was disappointment, anger, sadness, grief as well as steamy physical attraction and a connection between the two main characters that was very strong. From the beginning, lust definitely took control of both Savannah and Styx and drew them to one another with a vengeance. There was trauma and action with a bit of sweetness mixed into the story as well.

I overall found myself disappointed in this story. Too many “sweetheart, blondie, sugar” references and too much trying to be packed into the story had me turned off from the beginning. From the very beginning I unfortunately and surprisingly found myself not really enjoying this one. I love a strong female who overcomes her past and becomes stronger. I also love a tough guy with a protective and soft loving side. The characters and the overall concept of this story were good, but I don’t feel like it lived up to its full potential. I wanted to love Lust, but I felt it was too rushed and possibly would benefit from being expanded into a full novel where things could’ve developed better and the story could’ve evolved more smoothly. I would be interested in reading a full-length novel by F.G. Adams to see if things would flow better given more room to explore.

Lust is the PERFECT name for this sexy little story! Styx and Savannah are smokin' hot right from the first time they meet. I loved that neither one of them was hy about going after exactly what they wanted. Tucked in the steamy scenes is a story of a girl who is tougher on the outside than she is on the inside. She's suffered but didn't let it define her, she took the bull by the horns and started over. I think she was perfect for Styx. He needed someone strong, and someone who can give as good as she gets. The ending had me on the edge of my seat and took the story in a more serious direction, but it perfectly rounded out exactly who these two characters were. FG Adams hit this one out of the park!
