Read To Me is a short and sexy novella that reads like a full length book. It captures everything needed to give the reader a substantial erotic read with great characters, believable plot and steamy sex.Blaise is in her mid-forties and is content with her life up to now, but finding herself with new independence after her daughter flees the nest, she is looking for someone to share her life with. She finds her pleasure in her books where her romantic heroes can be found. However on her usual bus trip from work she catches the eye of Mr Tall Dark and Handsome, who is not a regular passenger.However on the relative short bus ride nothing happens so off she trots to her local bookshop to pick up her new purchase she had on order. Imagine her surprise as she is browsing the shelves to come face to face again with the gorgeous stranger from the bus. He appears to have followed her!They find a shared love of aged erotica and divulge further by becoming ensconced on the comfy seats whilst the sexy 'Guy' reads out aloud….What follows next is a steamy and sensual meeting of mind and body between Blaise and Guy and I was fully engrossed and invested in this wonderful love story which it eventually turned out to be. It was beautifully written and covered all the emotions of lust, love, uncertainty, anger, desire and trust. It was totally relatable and easy to imagine this happening in real life (I can only hope on my daily commute to work!)This is a definite page turner and well worth reading. It was a really fabulous afternoon read and one of the best novellas I have read this year. A well-deserved five star read for me.
