Review: Very fun, sensuous and playful all at once

This is a very enjoyable read, sexy and playful with a strong  undercurrent of romance.  The characters are carefully drawn, from the girl-posse to the hunk-o-licious chef. I thought this was a clever, funny book, and I look forward to Berry's future efforts.I am not crazy about this new trend of buying a book in installments, however.  I would far rather wait until the book is complete and get it then.  I will look for the next edition and see how it goes from there.There were two word-usage issues that were annoying.  In the gazebo scene, the heroine describes herself as being exacerbated.  I don't think, based on context, that she meant exasperated.  Exacerbate means to aggravate or worsen an already unpleasant situation.  I am not quite sure what the author was intending to convey here, since the gazebo scene was a very pleasant one.  The other word choice that was just plain wrong was the h describing her connection to the H by describing how he had entered the abscesses of her mind.  An abscess is a pocket of flesh that is filled with pus.  To say the least: Eeewww.  I am fairly certain she meant recesses here, but that sort of error tends to pull me out of a story.  Not a good thing if you want me to keep buying your stories.  So, pay attention to the words you choose, don't let spell check be your only check, and Ms. Berry, you are off to a good start.  And rethink the installment plan, lots of us readers HATE that! If you insist on it, let us know from the start how many editions there will be and what they will cost.
