I must say, I have never read anything by,and until a week ago, even heard of Robin Covington.  Now, she goes down in my personal history book as having written one of the most favorite books I've ever read.  Hands down, she knocked one out of the park with Playing the Part.  Piper is a damaged, insecure, low-key best-selling author.  She has been burned by a Hollywood playboy in the past and who she is now is a reflection of her previous experiences.  She has a hard time letting go of everything that has happened to her and this presents many roadblocks during the course of her relationship with Mick.  Mick is the Hollywood Playboy.  He makes no apologies for his conquests during his life, and doesn't believe in happily ever after or love.  He is upfront about his desire for Piper and his feelings regarding love but he craves Piper like a sickness, one he doesn't understand and confuses him.  He is also kind and considerate (I almost cried over how wonderful he was to a disabled fan).  Mick is also luscious and sexy, he practically drips pheromones instead of sweating like other mortal men.  Watching this Sex God fall in love with the best-selling author was magical.  Their heat and passion literally leapt off the pages of the book and was hot enough to heat my knickers on more than one occasion. Everything about them was gritty and raw. This couple did not simply fall in love at first sight and they readily agreed to a no-strings casual hook-up relationship.  I got to watch their relationship go from no-strings, no worries sex to mind-blowing, crazy without you love.  This book sucks you in and refuses to let go.  There are some suspenseful parts to this book, but not guns and fighting suspense.  The sex was blind-blowing and erotic, while sweet and tender (so have a fan and ice cold drink on stand-by).  There are excellent secondary characters (Linc needs his own book next) and the best part...the epilogue.  I had tears in my eyes reading the epilogue.  So, if you want to fall in love with a Hollywood Playboy and be swept off your feet by an author, look no further than Playing the Part by Robin Covington.  One book delivers enough heat and passion to last a lifetime.  Rating:  5 of 5 stars
