I received a free copy of this book to read and review for Nice Ladies, Naughty Books.Emily Yates is as innocent and naive as they come. Living with her older, over protective sister since the death of her mother, she hasn’t had the normal life of a teenager.When her sister sees an ad that wealthy businessman Jack Duncan has placed for an “inexperienced woman” that he can train to be his perfect partner, her ranting and raving stir Emily’s curiosity. Completing the online application on a whim, she imagines for a few minutes about what it would be like to be with a man, any man, and have a family of her own.When she’s called for an interview, Emily tries to talk herself out of it, but goes along anyway. Seeing Jack, she’s instantly enamoured. Jack is also instantly captivated by Emily’s appearance. Instinctively, he knows this the woman he wants to be his wife, the mother of his children — his “perfect” partner, the perfect politician’s wife.Jack wants to keep his private life separate from the life he shares with any family life he may have, essentially he wants to have his cake and eat it too, and by finding an inexperienced Emily he can have just that.I like the way the author wrote the first few love scenes, allowing for Emily’s innocence and Jack’s caring to show through. As they romance progressed so did the heat level.The first half of the book was so much different from the last half, in that you saw the day to day happenings in Emily and Jack’s life, whereas in the last part of the book, there were months that were skipped to further the story. I think the author could have filled in some of the blank spaces by showing what else was going on in Jack’s private world. I would also like to have seen how Emily adjusted to her life as Jack’s wife and the world in which is now living.The heat factor in this book is off the chart. I really enjoyed the way the author showed how caring Jack could be with Emily, but also how dominant he could be at times.
