Hi Bekah:I just finished this book, here is my review. I will also enter in under the title:
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Temptation to Sin. This author moves at a quick pace and takes you on a sensual ride that is to die for. I totally identified with Shannon and the way she tried to protect herself from getting hurt. I also felt the strength of the desire Brent felt for Shannon. These two characters were passionate and explosive, and they knew how to enjoy each other. The author made them come alive from the pages, and kept at it until the end. The first man is Shannon’s life, Jayden, came across as weak, until you had delved beneath the surface, and saw a side of Jayden that was not apparent on first reading. Nonetheless, this book was about Brent and Shannon; Jayden just gave credence to their passion and love for each other.

Great! Thanks Jean, great review! I'm so glad to hear you liked it. I have yet to jump into it! But now I'm getting more and more excited!
There are more reviews on this book under the title in the community section. I am trying to find out how to post my review there also. So far, I haven't had any luck.
I have to agree with some of the other reviewers; I found Temptation to Sin very enjoyable and easy to read. I could not put the book down. It captured my interest and held it till the end. Shannon and Brent were well-matched. The problems Shannon was experiencing in her other relationship is something I can relate to, although I would not have remained so long in the relationship, given the circumstances, but I totally understood her motivation. The love scenes in the book were “HOT.” I had to get a fan to cool myself, as I continued to read. I was so enthralled that I have ordered her other book, State of Ecstasy. I cannot wait to receive my copy from Amazon. I am also looking forward to reading about Jayden after reading the excerpt in the book. An exceptional Read! Five stars!

Shannon believes life should be lived to the fullest..and she sets out to do just that! Twenty-eight year old Shannon had been in a platonic relationship with her childhood sweetheart for eight years. In the beginning, she had thought she would be able to go through life, making do without the physical aspect of a sexual relationship, but after eight years of going through the motions, Shannon was ready to admit, she could no longer continue this platonic relationship. So she sets off on a quest to find the man who could meet all of her needs. Brent was very angry when he found out his friend was pining after a woman who was heartless enough to lead him on, build up his hopes, and then walked out on him, without so much as a good bye. He was out for revenge. He vowed to teach that woman a lesson by seducing her, and then he in turn would walk out on her, as she had done to his friend. Unfortunately, "The best laid schemes of mice and men, oft awry," because after setting up an elaborate plan to meet Shannon and teach her a lesson, Brent got caught in his own net, and no matter how hard he fought it, he just became more entangled in the game of love. Now he had to work on making Shannon fall in love with him because he needed her love, like he needed air to breathe. The sparks began to fly between Shannon and Brent as they fought to resist the temptation of a love that was inevitable
