Review: Felt like two different books!
Rating: 4 out of 5

This book shocked a bit--not so much the content, but the disparate feelings of the two halves. The first half read like an erotic romance. The second half read like a romantic suspense novel. There felt like there was a "seam" in the middle between the two halves with the different paces.Still, this was an enjoyable, sexy. keep-me-up read. I felt invested in what happened to Mark and Tony, although Hailey a little less so. I get that she was hot, but nothing she did in the book spotlighted to me why so many men were absolutely gaga for her. It was the exchanges with the men that kept me reading and reading and reading well past my bedtime.I think the story surrounding Hailey's domestic violence situation was tastefully handled and even a bit stunning with how it was resolved.I did want more from the ending. Hailey moved back to her house and suddenly HEA? Seemed like there needed to be another ten pages there, especially since there was no real resolution (IMO) about what's going on between Tony and Mark.I would totally pick up another Samantha Ann King book. She writes sex really well, and with the amount that was in the book, she did an amazing job at keeping it fresh from one encounter to the next.
