I was given an early ARC copy of The Butterfly House by Lori Meckley to read and review. A hard working college girl with a secret and a lonely business man afraid to trust in love again. When Nolan walks into The Butterfly House their worlds were destined to collide. Ava is a college student/family girl by day and turns herself into Lotus at night. She dances and sings and removes her clothing for money, it makes her feel ashamed, but she desperatly needs the money for the secret she is harboring. What I lilke about this book is that the characters are so down to earth and easy to love. These are two people who really bring out the best in eachother and help eachother to overcome their fears. Nolan sees Ava, the person behind Lotus, not just an exotic dancer but as an artist, a beautiful women, and a overall good person. Nolan is an artist in his own right manipulating glass to creature beautiful projects in his business, something that has made him very successful. I think that the two characters are both good at what they do which both professions, while not as typical, are a type of art form which is another thing I enjoyed about the story. I feel that Lori does a great job of exploring the depth of her characters beyond their good looks, sex appeal, and their unique professions. The Butterfly House is an erotic romance with a touch of action and suspense and a lot of heart. Overall a great read!
