Shameless

Where has Gina Maxwell been hiding all of my life?!

Chance is a stripper for hire. Jane is pretty much a good girl who has a very naughty side that not even her best friend knows about. Jane has a best friend named Addison who surprises her with striptease by Chance to loosen her up. At first Jane has no idea what's going on and even though she has some doubts she decides to live a little. This scene was scorching hot!! I mean we all have some fantasies and Chance was very eager to fulfill each and everyone.

As time progress they both realize they want more than just a causal fling and hook up. I loved seeing how caring and romantic Chance could be when it came to Jane. Who knew he had this other side to him. Jane wasn't Ms. Shy and Innocent like I thought she would be. There was a whole other side of her waiting to be unleashed. Like they say gotta watch out for those quiet ones!!

As predicted there is some drama and it was rather predictable but I still enjoyed the story. What I liked about the whole situation was that it didn't get dragged out and made into this whole big production. The couple were able to work things out the hottest way ever!

We also had a good introduction to the secondary characters Addison and Roman aka Ruthless. I can't wait to read about them and catch up with Chance and Jane as well.

Okay, can we agree that nobody read this book for the plot or the poetic fords? okay, good.

Honestly, this book wasn't mind-blowing and felt a bit off. It could have benefited from less smutty scenes (shocker) but them being a bit more detailed.

It was good but I missed that little something to make it unforgettable.

Do you need a palette cleanser? Or just some good smut? This your book

I have loved several books by this author,sadly this isn't one of them. I never felt the attraction between Jane and Chance and neither one of their characters appealed to me at all. Every time Chance was trying to be dominant it came off as creepy and sometimes even comical. And the whole IHOP bathroom stall scene…Hell No!! And just for the record, if at anytime during sex a guy spits on any part of my body, it's game over.

This was a super quick, SUPER STEAMY read! More sex than story, but I wasn’t mad about it 😏 Gina Maxwell creates fantastic characters and is a Queen when it comes to dialogue. Definitely glad I found her books.

This was an enjoyable, engaging and fun story. That was quick and easy to read, had plenty of hot moments, that were really varied and two likable characters in Jane and Chance and I would happily recommend this story to others.
