Bachelorette

by Sherri L. King

Hollywood security expert Gideon Fevere's life is all business with no room for love. Until a chance encounter with a mouthy, brazen siren has him re-evaluating his priorities. Because of a heartless betrayal in her youth, make-up artist Catherine Stowe has little respect for men and no use for them other than in her bed. When Gideon enters the scene, to protect her boss from a dangerous threat, she knows she must tread lightly or risk losing her heart and getting hurt once again. Gideon vows to convince his wayward bachelorette that love is worth any risk. He just has to corner her first.

Reviews

[Jane Stewart · Rating 5 out of 5]

4 ½ stars. Wow. Wow. Very inventive sex with lots of sex toys and tying up.

Usually this much sex comes with a weak story, but in this story the plot was pretty good. If you're looking for an erotic turn on, this is it. Catherine was hurt by her fiance in college. Later she looks and acts shy and mousy during the day, but becomes a sexy persona at night in the bar scene. She meets Gideon at a bar. He later sees her at work and recognizes her but she doesn't know he recognizes her.

Not sure if I'd let a man I first met put me in handcuffs but it made for a hot BDSM scene, who knew a betrayed make-up artist and ex CIA agent would work out so well

3 stars is probably strong. It was ok. I wasn't really into either of the characters and the love scenes weren't that hot for me. I'm not really into the bondage thing, though, so others might have different opinions.
