The synopsis of this book is what hooked me into this book right away. It was blunt, hot, and to the point, and I freaking loved it. Little Black Book is about Sebastian Black. (That deliciously hot and severely blunt man you meet in the synopsis of the book) Sebastian is an interesting character. He is rich, he is rough, and he was fantastic to read about. Sebastian happens to love women too. He's got a whole book of them, except he doesn't know the real names of any of the women in those books, and he likes it that way. He has two rules: don't ever deny him and don't fall in love. Sounds simple enough, and it was, until she walked into his life.Rosslyn "Roz" Harris is quickly plummeting towards rock bottom. She is at the end of her rope, and she really needs to catch a break. She is solely responsible for her little brother Kyle after their grandmother passes away, and in a moment of desperation she begins working at a club. That club happens to be owned by Sebastian Black himself. The moment he sees her, he knows that she's going to be the next entry in that little black book. As long as he can convince her that's what she wants and needs.While reading this book, I loved the chemistry between Sebastian and Roz. It sparked off the page, and it was hot with a capital H. I loved the interactions between these two. Sebastian was an ass most of the time, but it worked for him. It was easy to see that there was a lot going on in his mind, especially when it came to Roz. I also really loved that Roz was no wilting flower. She was at a low point in her life, and she has her issues, but she's got one mighty strong backbone that wouldn't let Sebastian intimidate her.This book did a nice job of showing two characters in an interesting "relationship" and how they reacted to the actions of the other. It was also great to read two characters who had their own individually flawed pasts. They both had some dark things to work through, and that made the book all the better. The events of the books kept me engaged the entire time while reading, and I couldn't wait to see how it would all turn out. The ending events of this book took me by surprise, and I was a little shocked at where things went, but in a good way.Overall, this was a truly fantastic book to read. The characters were exciting and had magnificent personalities that I just ate up. The book was extremely well paced, and its dual perspectives made both of these characters come alive. This was a truly remarkable book that I highly recommend!
