Wren is an artist who puts herself through college by working as a bike messenger. She gets to know Gregori Ivanov as she delivers the imported cakes and sweets he loves to order. Gwen sees past his wild Mohawk and tattoos to a more sensitive guy under it all. She decides she wants Gregori in her life and in her bed. Gregori is newly divorced and harassed by the ex-wife from hell. He doesn’t want to get involved for a while because he wants more than just sex. Wren has made her mind up, and whatever she wants she goes after it and gets it. After some steamy hot sex, she decides she wants even more.I love the twist in this story where an aggressive woman pursues a hot but reluctant guy. At first glance I thought that it to be cliché and I expected Wren to be a pushy barracuda type of b--- who runs over everyone. I also expected Gregori would be a whimpy, over sensitive, push-over type of guy. I really liked Wren and Gregori’s characters. Lauren Dane did a great job of making them believable and very likeable. Wren is a straight talking lady who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to express her feelings and say so. This book was a refreshing take on the average boy meets girl. Gregori is sensitive and still very hot and sexy, and VERY manly. I like the way they interacted and became friends as their relationship progressed. The love scenes were great too.Dane writes really hot story. The thing I would change is to make the story longer. There was so much more that Dane could have developed or added. I wanted to know more about the characters, themselves and there could have been a lot more background development and information to help us know and understand the characters. Especially since this wasn’t the very beginning of the series. This was my first book of the Chase Brothers series and my first book by Lauren Dane, but I will definitely be going back to read the previous books of the Chase Brother’s series the previous books of the Chase Brother’s series while I eagerly wait for the next book.
