I truly enjoyed Missionary Position, this book tells the story of Selah Elmore and I want to start by saying this book can absolutely be read stand alone.  I am not going to tell you who Selah’s love interest is because as the blurb says “ Cocky, suit-wearing Gerhard charms her during a stopover in Amsterdam, but dashing, adventurous Kai sweeps her off her feet in Ghana.” Please also note this review will be on the short side because I do not want to reveal the twist and turns that made this book so enjoyableThe story opens with Selah in an airport enjoying a meal with a stranger; a kind woman also enjoying sushi at JFK; the strangers suggestion that Selah call her brother to help end her visit to Amsterdam was a wonderful way to introduce a love interest for a busy professional who has her head down and is focused on her carer.I loved Gerhard the suit-wearing professional and Selah cracked me up; the exchanges between these two was engaging and pulled me right in. It is clear to the reader that this pull is different for Selah.As Selah’s visit to Amsterdam came to a close I found myself rooting for these two who lives in different continent to find a way to have this be more than just this interaction.Selah leaves Amsterdam for Ghana to continue her business; because yes this book is about grown-up adults with lives, and careers and plans. And true to an adult your life does not stop just because you feel a connection to someone who should be strange to you.When Kai entered the story to Ghana things got truly amazing, no not a love triangle or a ménage and I am loving it!If I loved Gerhard I adore Kai; he was adventurous, kind in spirit and man who learned the mistakes of his past and is determined to create a life he loves.  Kia and Selah’s connection took this book to a new loves; the chemistry; the opening up to each other and when these two finally connect well the sex scenes layers passion, lust and ultimately with love.Re-enter Anita the stranger from the airport into the story and well it all gets shaken up and no not what you are thinking; I loved the twists and the complications it so added to the story.The weaving of Selah’s “other career” into this story was so well done! Nope again not telling youI should also add Ms Prescott’s ability to transport the readers with vivid imagery across continents was so well done.Ok back to the story; there were times I wanted to scream, I wanted to share Selah but in the end the resolution and pain it too to get there was so true to a woman who had on idea who to fit love in her very busy career driven life.I am very much looking forward to Ms Prescott’s next release whatever that might be I truly enjoy her writing style.
