Fun, indulgent romance
5 stars
After years of taking care of everyone else, Darcy Wolf is suddenly free to do what she wants. And what she wants is to ditch her good girl persona and indulge in some of her most decadent fantasies. Afterwards she plans to leave her home town and never come back.
Her first fantasy is to have a one night stand with a hot, willing man and her housepainter Tyler Houston seems like the perfect candidate. Their amazing chemistry takes Darcy and Tyler by surprise and suddenly Darcy isn't sure whether she wants fantasy or reality.
This book is pretty much about Darcy and her desire to get out into the world and fulfil all her fantasies. She could easily have come across as annoyingly clueless but instead her determination to find out about herself after years of being tied down seems real and her worry understandable. Tyler was a wonderful hero - strong but with a caring, emotional side. The pair had great chemistry and they scorched the pages as they fulfilled Darcy's fantasies together.
This is really a fun book. It's sexy, funny, sweet and overall a really enjoyable read. 5 stars.

Best of the Blaze line I have read so far. After years spent caring for a dying father and a recovering-from-injury ex-boyfriend, a young woman attempts to fulfill her fantasy and seduce a stranger--her sexy housepainter. Only, it turns out he is not a stranger after all...oh no...he's a sort-of acquaintance from high school, her new neighbor, and cousin to her best friend's husband Their growing relationship is threatened by her upcoming move as well as a few more fantasies that she'd like to fulfill (but which fall flat without him). There's also a cute sub-plot about her best friend's marriage. This book was surprisingly funny as well as sexy.
