`Sexy Valentine's Treat' by Sandra Ross is a great little story about a couple that are obviously perfect for each other, and already hot for each other, who never seemed to quite get it together.  They are paired up unexpectedly when the guy's sister and her husband trick them into spending Valentine's weekend together alone in an isolated cabin.Sue is best friends with Karen, Graeme's sister.  Sue and Graeme have known each other for years, and both fancy each other, but would never get together on  their own, so Karen and her husband hatch a plan to get the two alone in a cabin for Valentine's day as their `gift' to them.  At first, the pair is surprised and a little unsure of what to do.  But as they preen and prance around each other, simple flirtation soon becomes something much hotter and heavier than either one expects.I liked the concept of the couple being set up in this way when they obviously liked each other forever but just couldn't communicate it.  The way the author described the cabin was perfect, and the perfect place for sparking off a romance so hot.  The premise was simple, but effective, and the characters were all likeable.  I especially liked the fact that it was set on Valentine's Day since it is a very romantic time for new relationships.Once Karen and her husband arrive at the cabin, the sexual tension is pretty much palpable.  Ross doesn't disappoint with the sexy scenes, they are just as hot as in her other stories, but with a much sweeter back story to go along with them.  In fact, this is one of her `sweet erotic romances' that are a little easier to get into if straight up erotica is not your cup of tea.  I enjoy these stories as a nice combination of nice and naughty!  Plus, the characters are all great in her books, and the dialogue can be pretty funny.One thing I didn't care for was the description of Graeme's driving up to the cabin.  It made him seem way more uptight than he really was, and I thought he should be described as a little more relaxed since it seemed that would be a better match for Sue.  It didn't detract from the story at all, but just nagged me while I read it, so I would have to give it 4 stars for that reason.  Other than that this was a great, hot little read that is perfect for any day, not just Valentine's.  Now I just need to get my husband to take me to a cabin in the woods for the weekend so we can act out the scenes in this book, lol!
