One thing I did appreciate about this read was the grammar and spelling was well done. Frankly, we have to give thanks for this since it is not often the case when reading some books in this genre. I consider this erotica based upon the sexual verbiage used so if you are not into that consider yourself warned.  I liked the fact that her heroine was not as helpless or acting clueless as some I have read.  She defended herself well in the face of ignorance and the fact that she was not really influenced by wealth.  Like in most IR book (Romance or Erotica) the relationship development is too quick. I would have liked to have seen more of how the heroine and her best friend actually became friends. I also could not really get why Cade the hero was so in love with Shakara especially since he actually knew so little about her and vice verse. Even when he found out he still had little in common with her and it was the same for her. I have grown weary of IR author's propensity to have the hero and heroine fall in love with the first look.  The "Baby Girl' endearment frankly creeped me out and you will understand why when you read it. But I did not necessary dislike the ideas of the older man and younger women idea for the book. I thought that part was refreshing as least as a concept.  I also, for some reason, found the sexual verbiage in some of the sex scenes to be not in keeping with how each of these characters are presented outside the bedroom.  It just did not seem to match for me for some reason. All in all this author attempted to do something a bit different and I can appreciate that even if it some things fell a bit short.
