"She's Hot Now" was my first Lisa Scott work. For being $0.99 and advertised as a short, I thought it would be much shorter than it really was. I found myself pleasantly surprised as I kept reading because I really empathized with the main character, Natalie. Scott lets you know from the second paragraph that there is something special about this "hottie" on the beach. She's shy, vulnerable, proud, and strong all at once.This is a fast read, and I especially liked that Lisa Scott lets you see the underlying emotion and struggle within all of the characters. Even in such a brief amount of time, I felt like I learned much more about Natalie, Cassidy, and Connor than I have in some other full-length romance books. Also, it must be noted that beach read romance is not usually my favorite genre, so that's saying something.I'm definitely going to buy Scott's other books, and would recommend her to romance/chick-lit/women's fiction readers. I took one star away because I felt at times that the dialog was too plain and flat (not colorful or engaging enough), which took away from the overall depth of the books. However, those moments were few and far between.
