Review: Perfect, classic, HOT Regency novella

Sylvia Day novels are always hit and miss with me.  Either there's just too much graphic, unnecessary sex or the story is so confusing I just give up reading the book entirely.  However, 'Lucien's Gamble' is one of the few stories by Sylvia Day that I throughly enjoyed.  Maybe I have this weird affection for stories about gaming club owners and virgins (a few months back I read a similarly themed story by Lisa Kleypas, which I LOVED), but this short tale of love and acceptance between Lucien and Julienne was entertaining, a "page turner" (or whatever the right term is for an ebook), and definitely a 10 on the 'hot' scale.  If you're the type of reader who does NOT enjoy course language and descriptive sex in your fiction, then I would advise you to skip this one...I think these hundred pages or so is absolutely worth the Kindle price (fast-paced, well written story); not to mention that the price for the full Kindle version of 'Bad Boys Ahoy' is half of what the paperback retails for.  I was so enthralled with this short story that I've already downloaded the full version AND Day's 'Perfect Kisses' just to read Justin's tale!If you're a fan of Sylvia Day or you enjoy more adult/intense Regency romance, definitely download this novella!
