SUMMER'S BOOK BLOGI absolutely am in love with Becoming His Muse Part 1 by K.C. Martin. This book was written in the view of the main heroine, Ava Nicols. The book shows the true struggle of Ava and her ability to resist despite what her traitorous body might be saying. And perhaps that audacity of one Mr. Logan O'Shane, renowned author, and much to her chagrin and surprise, new Campus Professor.This book is so AMAZING!! I love the interactions and sexual innuendo between Ava and Logan. Logan is obviously VERY aware of Ava just as Ava is VERY aware of Logan. Ava however, refuses to act on the attraction whereas Logan is all over it making sure Ava is aware. I truly do believe that this book will be in the ranks of The Blackstone Affair and 50 Shades. While this book doesn't necessarily have all of the lurid sex scenes, the atmosphere is there. You can feel the undercurrents. Especially in how Logan speaks to Ava. It was fun picturing Ava’s indignation as well as facial expression when Logan says to Ava that he wants her as his muse. KC Martin wrote this book perfectly. She leaves you with anticipation and expectations. You never really know what Logan is going to say to Ava or how Ava might react to something or someone. Add into the mix one zany friend, Ruby and Ruby's ex-boyfriend, Jon... and you have some of the best situations that Ava will ever find herself in. I liked that at times you could feel the chip in the faade Logan had whenever Ava was able to make a valid point or mentioned anything about his life prior to becoming a writer.While this book does touch base on just who is Logan O’Shane, its more of a getting to know Ava Nichols and what makes her tick. I found that I was sitting on the edge of my seat, imagining that it was I in the book instead of Ava. I especially loved the scene where Logan walks into the art studio and asks Ava if he can draw her, of course her snarky reply is, Can you? It was the emotional details that KC Martin put into the scene,  I found myself wanting to do as Logan said because hey, Logan said it. I did appreciate that while maybe unintentional, Ava was finally able to understand what she puts her models through, as she was now the model trying to make the artist content. Yes, this book is a cliffhanger but it’s the anticipation of what's to come in the next book that keeps me coming back for more.
