Take Me Twice

by Isabel Sharpe

Laine Blackwell has quit her job and plans to enjoy herself before heading to grad school in the fall. At the top of her list of fun things? Finding a Man To Do! When her hot-and-sexy ex, Grayson Alexander, asks to stay with her and promises not to take advantage of the situation, Laine's fine with it. But how can she meet a Man To Do when the man she's always wanted is sleeping right in the next bedroom?

Grayson's never forgotten Laine. As much as he's tried, she's always been on his mind. Moving in with her seemed like a great idea--what's a little sex between friends? Of course her mission to find a Man To Do puts a wrench in his plans, but Grayson's not one to roll over and play dead. Seducing Laine won't be easy, but it'll be the most fun he's ever had!

Reviews

[Mombo · Rating 4 out of 5]

Take Me Twice is one of those stories where the heroine, in this case the flighty Laine, thinks she can go out and have sex with random men before she settles down with graduate school. So painful to read because we all know how that turns out.

Grayson, the hero, whom Laine accuses of being unable to commit, has her realizing how wrong she is but not soon enough, imho. He turns out to be a great guy if only she would open her eyes.

The sad part of this whole story is the ending. She's just not good enough for him... because you really aren't convinced she will ever find something to make herself entirely happy. She gets lost in him and I'm not sure the issue was truly resolved at the end.
