As with the first novel, Crave, in Monica Murphy's Billionaire Bachelor's Club, TORN is a quick read filled with lots of great banter between the main characters and plenty of steamy scenes that'll leave wanting to stand outside in the chilly weather to cool off."Every time we encounter one another, sparks fly, and usually they're the angry ones."As a member of a well known family from the Napa Valley area, Marina Knight has a lot riding on her small bakery becoming successful. Not only because she needs it to be a financial success but to also prove to her family that she can be a successful business woman. So, when Marina encounters the sexy real estate tycoon, Gage Emerson, at a local party, she isn't all to happy to meet him; especially, since Gage is determined to snatch up a piece of her family's real estate. Marina instantly has a strong distaste for Gage and tries to knock down his ego by throwing insults as him. Soon these two are having a battle of words while trying fighting the immense sexual attraction they feel for one another. Will this real estate tycoon obtain his coveted piece of property or is he in danger of losing his heart (and the million dollar bet with his best friends) to the beautiful bakery owner?"Is it just me you say idiotic, sexist disgusting things to, or do you talk this way to all the women you encounter?"Gage and Marina were a really fun couple to get to know. I loved seeing them evolve from being enemies to lovers. Aside from the steamy love scenes some of my favorite parts of TORN were when these two were hurling insult after insult at each other. In some ways, the way these two treated each other at the beginning reminded me of school kids. Even though they said some pretty hurtful things, deep down they really liked each other but were too scared to admit it. The heat in their war of words only helped spark the flame between these two and when they got together for some angry sex....whew they melted your face off!"Flaws and all, and despite that, the attraction is still there between us. Like a living, breathing thing."Murphy brings back characters we met in Crave and you see how much Archer is enjoying watching Gage fail at their ridiculous bet. I mean really, these guys should have known that as soon as they laid one million dollars on the table that, they would sooner rather than later meet the women that would change their thoughts on being single bachelors forever. If you are looking for a quick, fun, sexy, and passionate series with hot billionaires, then you definitely need to start reading Billionaire Bachelors Club. Monica Murphy makes seeing sexy, confident billionaires loosing a million dollar bet a lot of fun. TORN was a wonderful installment in this series and I am really looking forward to seeing the third man in this club, Matt, fall on his knees for his assistant with the googley eyes. Monica Murphy, please bring us Savor a little sooner!
