NOTE: Received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. To borrow another reviewer's words, this is a sweet and sexy erotica and seldom do I read about those. Despite all the erotica I've read, I found this a breath of fresh air.Lola and James's story tugged at my heartstrings. I love a girl-and-boy-as-best-friends type of story and I liked how it turned out. Both of them have their own insecurities, they've been through a lot and even long distance, their relationship survives. I love the concept of a platonic relationship even though James is a porn star.The author switches between Lola's and James's points of view and I appreciated that. The sex scenes could go from mild to hardcore, and the conflict presented worked for me. I liked the turn of events, each character is crazy about the other, and they're not exactly fighting the sexual attraction 100%, but their friendship means more than raging hormones.This novel made me lose a little sleep. It's fast-paced, sexy and smart at the same time, characters are enjoyable and of course the sex scenes were fantastic. Every scene has a different tone and everything meshed well.I'm looking forward to reading the next book and I just can't get enough of Lola and James! Kudos to Ms Giovanni!
