This was one hot and steamy mess - good hot and steamy mess, but a hot and steamy mess all the same.Both Elizabeth and Hunter have scarred pasts, secrets they don't want to reveal to anyone. Neither wants to delve into the memories that have marred them.Each has their own demons to deal with, but when they meet sparks fly. They both learn the meaning of trust as they become closer - first as friends, and finally as lovers.Together, these two are explosive. When we first meet our characters, both have a lot on their plates seperately, but their paths finally converge when Elizabeth winds up at a brothel to sell her "v-card" in order to raise money for a friend. Hunter just happens to be the lucky winner to take her home with him. Before the auction, these two only have a chance to taste one another thanks to outside forces - mainly the scandel against Hunter - keeping them apart. When they finally cave into their desires though... Woo! Someone get me a fan!Both characters have devastating backgrounds. Elizabeth's mother is an addict and her father ran off with another woman. Hunter's the black sheep who seems to keep running his father's name into the dirt without meaning to. As they learn more about each other and the secrets they hide from both themselves and the world, it's not hard to see why they are a match.Want a steamy romance with an extra helping of kidnapping, backmail, and conspiracies, head on over and check out <em>Selling Scarlett</em>. In the meantime, I'll be checking out <em>Taming Cross</em>, the sequel. Enjoy!
