Ro's Take on this Journey:Unscrupulous, by Avery Aster is a whirlwind experience filled with wit, humor, fame, fortune, sex-capades, drugs, erotica, voyeurism, heat, passion, romance, glam, high society, living it up, and workaholics!!! I loved every minute of it.  At times it was raunchy, filled with foul language, and a bit kinky, but it had a great story, filled with laughable humor, where you can't help yourself from getting giddy.  Truly this book is about EXCESS...EXCESS...EXCESS...The story begins with Tabitha, (Taddy) Adelaide Brillford.  Taddy grew up in New York High Society.  She comes from a wealthy family.  Her parents are falling out of the good graces of the Elite, with the separation of their marriage that is in tatters, and decide to abandon their daughter by sending her off to boarding school.  Taddy is emancipated by age 16, thus cuts her family out of her life, and her good friends are her only family.  Taddy will do anything for them and vice versa.Taddy becomes a strong heroine, self-made millionaire, who starts Brill, Inc.  She is the CEO, and she lets nothing and no one get in the way of her business.  She works hard, and plays hard, but has no real relationships with men until she meets Warner Truman.  The combustible combination of sexual tension is undeniable from the start of their first encounter.  Talk about HOT!!!Warner Truman, (also known as Big Daddy) is a widower, who is also a self-made millionaire, who is very cautious of who he gets involved with.  Warner is a no-nonsense man,  but still a gentleman, vulnerable, sexy as hell, a tasty morsel, and crazed animal all wrapped up into one!  He is a mogul and buys and sells resorts.  Warner has just ended a deceitful relationship with Rielle.  He falls prey to Taddy, and his carnal desires, when he comes head to head with her.  He is a man who gets what he wants, and he has to work hard to get the real Taddy.  Underneath all her layers, she hides the vulnerable girl behind a facade.  She has walls of steel up that are hard to penetrate.  Taddy has never allowed herself to need anyone, since her parents deserted her.  Warner is leery of involvements, because he is afraid women are just after his money.  There is no threat with Taddy, since they are both equals, and self-made.There is an upset during the relationship, but hold on to your socks!!!  The re-connect is well worth the wait!  These two characters are not good communicators when it comes to real intimacy.  They really have to dig deep to allow each other in, though "Big Daddy" is ready, willing, and able!  The interaction is hilarious at times, and Warner teaches Taddy how to let go and be loved for once in her life, without conditions.The secondary characters are phenomenal as well, and become life long friends.  Her best friend since childhood, Lex Easton, who is also a strong heroine, the founder of a design house for the stars, and book#1 is about her.  The characters are jaded!  I loved this fast paced read, the story line was witty and light, and just what the doctor ordered.  Ms. Aster has a way with words, and certainly won me over.  I am looking forward to this entire series.I give Unscrupulous, by Avery Aster, 5 Heart Felt, Big Daddy's Scorching Hot, Can You Say Anaconda, Big O, Magic Wink ;) Stars!!!
