Amber was having a difficult time launching her career as an erotic novelist off the ground. She didn't have the experience necessary to write a believably hot sex scene. Oh. she'd had sex, just not "scream the paint off the walls" really good sex. She needed to do some hands on research, and who better than her neighbor, Jax. Jax had made it more than clear he was interested, and she probably would have considered his suit if he wasn't  broke and struggling to make ends meet all the time.Oh, Jax... Faint heart never won fair maiden, and empty wallet wasn't dropping Amber's panties. (not for the long run, anyway) Luckily, my boy did have skills in a different area. The *ahem* female physiology area. I liked Jax, he was a sweetie, just not loaded down with ambition. For a woman with goals, ambitions are a must in a potential mate. I'm not even talking mucho dinero here, just a plan, and that doesn't even have to be carved in stone, it could be a nebulous idea, but it has to be some form of path for the future. Jax was content to just bounce along, until Amber.This was an uber-sexy quick read that made me smile, then pant, then laugh, then pant some more, and finally go aww[...] Amber was my kind of woman. She was smart, liked dogs, had her head on straight about her priorities, and when she ran into obstacles, she conquered them. In other words, she was a grown up. She wasn't squeamish about what she wanted or expected. Yay!! She could also put her foot down like nobody's business. Jax might still have the shoe print on his butt. She wasn't hardhearted though, she was just focused. She realized it doesn't have to be this or that, if you compromise and talk things through you can have it all. Kudos on a job well done.
