Review: 4 Stars!! Very spicy, sweet little short! I really enjoyed this believable, friends to lovers, older woman/younger man romance.

The author brings us into the story with the knowledge that there is a solid friendship between Chase and Tess, so the lack of a build-up to a romance is not necessary, we already know where they stand.  But both parties feel the need for something more than their flirty friendship. However, where Chase is confident and determined that intimacy is the next step for them, Tess, who is older than Chase, has her doubts, due to her own insecurities and body image. I could definitely see how this would be an issue in an older woman/younger man relationship. Tess also fears if sex enters into the picture, that there is a good chance that she could lose what she has with Chase, and she's not sure she's willing to risk that. She'd rather no sex, than no Chase. On the flip-side Chase knows that he can prove to Tess through intimacy that his love and feelings for her are real. He hopes that she will realize that she is more than a passing fancy to him. The author did a good job of conveying this to the reader. Although the sex scenes are quite steamy, the couple connection and loving vibes are not lost in the erotic nature of the book.It's a short read, but a complete one, an entertaining steamy read! A big plus, you don't read their feelings; rather you hear the character's voice through the plentiful dialogue...very nicely done. Also, it's virtually angst free, other than a slight misunderstanding which is quickly resolved. Lots of sexy fun...including a sizzling scene with the `Triple Threat'...WOW! Although there is no epilogue, Tess and Chase's suggested HEA, makes for a satisfying ending. I also have to wonder...Gage and Roxi...will they get a book too? I hope so! I would definitely read their story.
