This was steamy hot and all kinds of trashy that I can totally get behind. Gemma James pulled me in immediately and pulled at my heart with Jules and Cash.. oh my can I have some of that.

Wow, I know when I went in reading this, I had a different mindset than the one I left with. Loved the characters in the book and the author seriously does this taboo subject up right. I don't want to rehash the plot because I do not ever give spoilers, and I feel like if I rehash the plot I will give things away. If you want to read taboo, and you are into having your mind expanded a bit, along with some seriously hot sexy times, read this. seriously. This story is told in alternating views.

Be warned..there is probably spoilers about to happen.


But Lawd knows I have to get this out of the way first: I KNOW the author says that there is cheating in this book. I knew that going in and I know that books are fantasy.

Now let's get to what I really thought. AND ONCE AGAIN I MAY SPOIL ON THIS ONE...because stupid happens and stupid pisses me off.

This book starts off with lovely Jules having an affair with her married boss. But it's okay because she was drunk and doesn't really remember it.
So she is (at first) all crushed because her live in boyfriend is breaking up with her because of it.
Poor Jules is soooo very upset that she feels that she must leave town (her butt getting fired for sleeping with the boss is beside the point.)

So she is on a plane headed towards her best friend's where she can start a new life and lick her wounds.
Then on the plane she sees hot guy.

Cheesy ass flirting happens.
I'm almost afraid that if I open my eyes, he'll see the truth.
That I'm falling hard 35,000 feet above the ground.




Then hot guy drops the bomb of him just happening to be married. But he knows his wife is cheating on him.
Poor guy.

When Jules ends up where she is going she realizes that she needs a job in order to start her new life.
I bet you will never, ever guess who her new boss is going to be?
Hot guy himself. Cash Montgomery..
Cash knows he shouldn't hire Jules as his personal assistant but he gets to thinking with his other brain and does it anyways.
They can keep their distance from each other. They just know it.

That last five seconds. They are pining away with their juicy hormones. After all wife is cheating isn't she? (I totally never really felt a hundred percent that she was..all the proof was a text message of her with a man..no sender info or nothing.)

There is lots of angsty bullshit where each of them say that they are going to behave themselves when we all know that the freaky deaky is going to be happening soon. (At times I thought I might like Jules a bit because she would sorta push him away but here he would come again)


These two characters were so beyond stupid. All they both thought about was their private parts and how much juices they were making. I sure didn't feel a lurrrve connection. More like just insta-stupid-lust.
Regardless of how little I actually know Jules, my gut tells me I can trust her.

I hate when a smexy time book gets ruined with stupid characters.

OMG, Are you serious?  A cliff hanger?  I could not believe it when I got to the end of this book.  I loved the book.  Meeting a man on a plane that you have a strong attraction to.  An attraction you never had with anyone else.  

I think that Jules' boss did something to her to get her to sleep with him.  She does not remember.  After this incident, now she thinks she has a thing for married men, which I do not agree.  When Jules met Cole on the plane to Seattle, she did not know he was married. 

This was my first book by this author and I can not wait to read the next book in this series.  When does book #2 come out?

☆☆☆☆☆
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
Recommend this book? Yes! Author? Yes!
Read more from this author? Yes!

Happy Reading!

Wow! Wow! Wow! So much angst! I love the tension between Cash and Jules. She's trying not to fall into her same mistakes. You can feel the pull between them. I can't wait to see what comes next!
