This review will follow the I-Review format aka Question and Answer format.You: What made you pick up Satisfaction Guaranteed by Tori Scott?MBR: It was quite by chance that I stumbled upon Satisfaction Guaranteed by Tori Scott. I follow author MJ Fredrick on Twitter and it was she who tweeted about this novella which caught my eye, and seeing that it was for just 0.99 $, of course me being me, I just had to buy it.You: Tell us a little bit about the hero Grayson Montgomery.MBR: Successful in his own right, Grayson has just turned 30 years old and is biding his time until the woman he loves turns 30 so that he can take her up on the promise that she made to him 15 years ago, before she left town and broke his heart.You: Now tell us a little bit about the heroine Caramia Kensington.MBR: Caramia is the owner of Satisfaction Guaranteed and is going to turn 30 years old when the clock strikes the midnight hour. She is ambitious and always had been and had turnd her back on what Grayson had offered when they were fifteen years old because her ambitions didn't feature her married, pregnant and barefoot before her teens were through.You: How does Caramia and Grayson meet for the first time?MBR: Caramia and Grayson both grow up together going to the same school. There is no particular mention in the book of how they meet for the first time.You: What was it that drew you into the story with Satisfaction Guaranteed?MBR: I found myself really fascinated with the secondary story that was taking place as I read along. The desire that the poor preacher's daughter feels for the rich man whose childhood had been far from ideal makes for a very interesting premise and I couldn't get enough of both Regina Baker and Sam Hyatt as I delved deeper into the story.You: What was it that you liked about Satisfaction Guaranteed?MBR: I liked the fact that Tori Scott did a pretty decent job of developing her characters and built up the sensual vibe between Grayson and Caramia before plunging them both into the physical aspect of their relationship. It made the connection between them more endearing and realistic to me.And of course, I absolutely loved the tidbits of Sam and Regina's shared childhood that were brought into the story. They definitely have a story that is worth telling and am glad that the sequel to this entitled Perfectly Satisfied is going to quench my thirst for their story.You: Is there anything you would want done differently in Satisfaction Guaranteed?MBR: Not really. I felt that Tori Scott has done a fairly good job out of telling a well rounded story in such a limited number of pages and it worked for me.You: Any memorable quotes/scenes from the story you would like to share?MBR: I liked the bits where Grayson seemed totally in tune with Caramia so much that he knows exactly the stuff she's made out of and gently draws her into his circle of love that in the end Caramia found as irresistible as I found it to be.You: Who would you recommend Satisfaction Guaranteed to?MBR: Satisfaction Guaranteed is great for a quick read in between those emotionally draining novels. A novella that flows smoothly and leaves you begging for more. Recommended for fans of novellas and fans of reunion romances.Rating=4/5
