I received a complimentary copy of this book as a part of a book tour in exchange for a fair and honest review.Stranded Temptation, a fun, flirty and hot contemporary romance by April Angel takes a fast look at delayed gratification when a boss and employee, who've had the hots for each other for years, get stranded by themselves on an island when their plane goes down. With just the right touch of character development, good dialogue and plenty of sexual heat, this was a quick trip to a tropical paradise on a cold winter's afternoon. By adding in a light touch of mystery and suspense, Ms. Angel made a good romance even more interesting.Accountant Kara Masters can't believe she had to give up her vacation cruise in order to accompany her boss on a business trip. Determined to get control of her life, and quit working 12 hour days, Kara plans to quit as soon as they get back from South America. She wasn't planning on a plane accident changing her outlook on life or her relationship with her boss.Lusting after Kara, his employee for five years, CEO Max Richards, is determined to keep their relationship on a professional level only. Needing her assistance in tracking down the identity of someone who's been embezzling company funds, Max plans to fly them down to South America to get more information. He wasn't planning on having to make a crash landing or on allowing his emotions for Kara to run free.The scenes between Kara and Max are fun, flirty and super hot. They have great sexual chemistry and their brush with death finally pushes them into doing something about their attraction to each other. Ms. Angel did a nice job introducing the characters so when they become intimate early in the story, it doesn't seem rushed and isn't a shock. I enjoyed watching Kara and Max as they get to know each other on both a personal and sexual level.Will Kara and Max be able to work together now that they've become intimate on a personal level? And will Kara be able to unearth the identity of the embezzler before another attempt is made on their lives? You'll have to read Stranded Temptation to find out. I enjoyed it and I think you will too.
