I was given an e-copy of Extreme Close-up in exchange for an honest review.Lisa's in a place in her life where she never expected to be.  She's been divorced for 3 years, her ex-husband is now married to someone who was a very good friend to her.  Her professional photography career is stifling her creativity.  And her 15 year old son is off at baseball camp, leaving her alone for the summer.  But one lawn mowing hottie (where can I get one of those for myself?) is about to change everything for her.Without taking into account that this was a novella and not a 200+ page book, I could not put it down!It was a little bit slow to get started, but I think that was necessary to let us get to know Lisa a little better before jumping into the steamy story.  But once it started, the steam didn't let up.  Most refreshing is that it had a realistic feel to it.  As a 40-something myself, I could grasp Lisa's hesitation in becoming involved with a man half her age and her self-esteem issues about her body, which is no longer like a 20-something's body.  But I loved how Braden was able to help her get through her issues and move her confidence up so many levels, both on a personal level and on a professional level with her career.I loved Braden.  So hot, so sexy, so passionate and so smart.  What a combination that any woman would be lucky to have.  He gave Lisa so much, even beyond the multiple O's that she had been missing out on over the past 3 years!  I loved Lisa too and how much she grew through her journey.  I'm not sure that I would have picked the same  path that she took at the end, but I could understand it and it worked for her so all is good!I'm looking forward to reading more by Julie Jaret and continuing on with Lisa's friend, Natalie, in the next part of the Perspectives series.
