It seriously only took me a few minutes to fall in love with James. Now really, James is the ultimate book boyfriend, in that I mean a bit too good to be true! We are talkin’ 6’5 hot, sexy, porn star who is amazingly attentive, a fabulous cook and cares about nothing more than Lola’s happiness and dotes on her every move. Oh, and did I forget to mention INCREDIBLY WELL endowed?? I know, I told ya right, total fantasy!! Except, he is not Lola’s boyfriend, he is her best friend…..For now… more about that in a minute.I read these books when they were a series of small novellas. This book is a combination of the first three original novellas with quite a few additional scenes.James and Lola have been best friends since they were children but NEVER more than friends. Though James is crazy protective and Lola measures every guy up to James. James has worked his way sexually through the female population and now finds himself in the porn industry as the newest up and coming star. Don’t get me wrong, James could not be a sweeter guy, he is kind, sensitive and never cruel, he simply loves women!! All the while Lola has remained a virgin and could never quite understand why she couldn’t find a man she loved as much as James!! Now they are both starting to discover that they are developing more that friendly feelings for the other but are too afraid to act on them, aside from a little fooling around.Although when the messing around goes a little far and gets a little intense they have to decide if the attraction is worth the possible fall of the great friendship they have. So we end this first installment with both James and Lola deciding that just friends is how they need to stay and Lola heading back to school and James continuing to rise in the porn industry. If you were lucky enough to have read these books when they were out as novellas, then you know how this ends for them, provided the lovely Ms. Giovanni doesn’t throw us a curveball :) - However, if you haven’t read them, please stay tuned for the next installment in the life of James and Lola. I promise you won’t be disappointed, I love these characters and their journey is a wonderful ride!!
