Reviewed by KarinaBook provided by the author for reviewReview originally posted at Romancing the BookConcealed Desire is a fast-paced, steamy, romantic love story. It’s not the usual guy meets girl and they fall in love. It is a story of a man who never commits and a woman who never trusts.Beth has a very good position and work comfortably in a company called Sutherland and Son. But one day everything changes when her “older” boss propositions to have her as his mistress. (What the?!) Then there’s Dean, the “younger” boss of the company. Beth’s relationship with him is just a casual one. They treat each other as friends but there’s some spark between them that can’t be denied.Dean is known to be a womanizer. He’s gorgeous and sexy and he knows it. He never had any serious relationship. But his attraction to Beth makes him think twice about his “no relationship” status. Beth likes, no, really, really likes Dean. But she’s afraid of trusting someone who’s known to be with different women all the time. Will she take the risk and get to know him?I’ve been used to reading books with the main characters having the instalove. It’s good that with this book, you will find it a bit more close to what happens in reality.What I like about the book is how the story flowed. You won’t get bored and you’ll finish the book in no time. One thing I noticed that’s a bit strained is the change of POVs. I really thought the book is just in Beth’s POV. Anyway, it’s good that I’ve got to know what’s in Dean’s mind. It really makes me glad when I read a guy’s POV. I also liked how the book ended but I think there’s no closure between Dean, Beth and Dean’s dad. I just hope some closure happened.All in all, I had fun reading the book and I will gladly recommend it to those who’re into steamy romances.Favorite Quote: “Think about it long and hard, because once you close the door completely you may never open it again.”
