Con Man

by Maris Soule

KURT -- A RUGGED HUNK WHO COULD HEAT HER UP FROM THE INSIDE OUT... — Instead of letting his usual investigator check out a prospective grant recipient, Kurt Jones decided he'd try undercover work, but once he met expert rider Micki Bradford, he wanted to uncover her secrets instead! His gaze caressed her, touched her as she'd never been touched, but she'd learned the hard way how irresistible a good-looking liar could be -- and she sensed that Kurt was hiding something.

HE WAS ALL STRENGTH, RAW POWER, AND SINEWY MUSCLES

Micki haunted his thoughts, invaded his dreams, and tempted him to tell her the truth, but once the long-legged seductress responded to him with unbridled passion, he promised he'd never hurt her -- and Micki needed to believe him. Sweeping her into a steamy charade to unearth the facts, Kurt vowed he'd dare any danger to win Micki's trust. Could she make him believe she had faith in his love?

Când am chef de ceva ușor și care să nu mă solicite, apelez la colecția loveswept. Escrocul e o siropoșenie, fix cum am vrut. E o poveste super simpatică, cu două personaje drăguțe si simple. N-am mare lucru de spus despre carte, e din asta de "gospodine" (cum le numea profa' mea de romana), mai mult decât că mi-a plăcut. E simpatică. Se citește super repede pentru că are mult dialog, iar subiectul e nesolicitant. Parcă aș fi vizionat un episod dintr-o telenovelă 😂😂😂. El, un tip criminal de frumos și de bogat, se straduieste să îl investigheze pe cel care trebuia să-l finanțeze. Ea, la fel de frumoasă, dresoare de cai, îi sucește mințile și îl face să uite pentru ce se află acolo. Jocul ăsta dintre ei, complicitatea și povestea în sine, fac ca lecturarea să fie plăcută. Îi dau 3 stele, dar nu pt că mi-ar fi displăcut, ci pt că e o poveste de duzină pe care cel mai probabil mâine o voi uita...

one thing u need to know about me is that a collect old loveswept books. i think they look lovely, i am obsessed with their covers & i grew up reading them (a thing i was totally not supposed to be doing). sometimes, i even read them. one time i even dropped one (this one, to be more exact) into my bath. a clear sign that i should keep them safe, sound & not read.
anyhow. this was okay. nothing spectacular, but it kept me busy & entertained while i try to avoid staring at screens for a while.
a solid 3-stars, if i had to rate it.
