First let me start off by saying I absolutely adore R.K. Lilley.  I have read all of her other series and absolutely love them.  I find that her writing is intriguing, enchanting, her sex scenes are always titillating and hot, but this particular book was not my favorite by any means.This particular book you have Alasdair, or Dair for short, and Iris.  Dair is recently divorced, a writer and set in his ways.  He frequents the gym at the same time and has the same routine.  It is there that he meets the bombshell Iris.  Iris is scantily clad and immediately catches Dair’s attention. It turns out this is what Iris hoped for as she was hoping to get Dair’s attention.  She dressed that way for him, so he would notice her.  After their little dance at the gym Dair ends up taking Iris home in his Tesla over which she salivates profusely.For whatever reason I couldn’t relate to either of these characters.  Neither of them made sense to me and I didn’t find them very well-rounded or complete, like her other characters.  Iris leaving in the evenings to do a job, we assume, and Dair doesn’t even question it.  Then when Dair does question it, he follows her and spies on her instead of just talking to her.  It seemed somewhat childish to me, especially since Dair is supposed to be the older, wiser person in this relationship.The sex between the two of them is constant and really it is hot and steamy.  There are some truly hot sex scenes in this book, but it wasn’t enough (for me) to keep the story together.  In the end they part ways because Dair has an interview set up and he doesn’t want the person that is interviewing him to meet Iris so he suggests that she heads out.  In the end that is the straw that broke the camels back, so to say, and Iris leaves him.  Iris leaving ends up crushing him and we are left with Dair searching for her.While I do love this author, for me, I don’t think that this will be a series I will be continuing.  I am still looking forward to her other works though!
