Review: Oh Coop!
Rating: 4 out of 5

3.5 out of 5Tease was a shorter read, but it was packed full of Coop. Coop is our lead and the book is solely from his point of view. Coop is a male escort and he is very good at his job. And he has very good reasons for doing what he does. I enjoyed reading about him in action. (SEXY sexy times!) I enjoyed the banter between Coop and other characters. I understood his dilemma and when things blew up in his face, I was worried that the ending that I hoped for Coop would be lost. But Missy pulled through and I will be checking out Promiscuous, the companion novel to Tease, when it releases in early 2014.Honestly, Tease really was a good read. I love Missy’s writing style! I fell for it with Seduce and then Beautiful Rose. But I did have some issues with Tease. The writing is sound and the storyline was well planned out, but our heroine, Mia, was a very weak character. I could take her or leave her.  My heart was with Coop and his story. I don’t feel like I had enough of Mia and Coop, as a unit, and it left me emotionally unattached to their fate as a couple. I feel like it was the story of a male escort and his desire for more than sex for money. Not a romance story where I feel attached to the couple and have a burning desire for them to find their happily ever after. Am I glad that I read this? Absolutely. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. But I would recommend it with the advice that if you are looking for an epic love affair, then pick another book for now.  If you want to fall for a male escort and root for him to find peace and a future, then Tease by Missy Johnson is your next read.
