Jeez this read was SMOKIN hot! It was also intense, gritty and sweet (overall).Taint was written solely in our H's words, Justice. Now, while that was excellent, and definitely necessary for a lot of the scenes to work out, I would have loved to be in our h's, Ally, mind.Overall this read is about a troubled, full of himself, because he know's he gorgeous, Hero that is hired by husbands/lovers to teach wives in a 6 week course how to get their husband to want them and not their mistresses. This means by appearance and sexuality. He teaches them in raw detail how to get the "job" done.It's a little different in terms of the H being available for the h.He was in his mind, but wasn't physically. At least not for most of the book. He doesn't think he deserves her, but then likes her, then hates her all at the same time.There are times that he is, in detail, with other women (yes, plural, as in at the same time) while he's trying to get his mind off of his feelings toward the heroine. It's not really bothersome, other than you wish he'd just nut up and go after the heroine.This deals a lot with famous people and their details about their relationship being splattered all over the news. About some things that are true and some things that aren't - none of which really matter to the story.The only thing and main reason I didn't give this read 5 stars was that I felt the "twist" at the end came out of nowhere. I dunno, maybe I missed the part where his master plan was to come into play and then changed when he got to know her better, or what, but I felt like it's supposed to be this huge thing, but since we as the reader, weren't made aware of how big a deal this guy is and what he's planning or not planning, it wasn't really a big deal. Wow, that was a huge sentence, but somethings just need to be said with run ons, lol.Anyway, it was still an excellent read. Definitely contains triggers of OW (even though they technically aren't together, they were working on building something) in detail and kind of lays it on thick with how much this man suddenly loves (and vice versa) this woman.But overall it worked and worked well.I do recommend this read, with the warnings above, but think you'll enjoy it. He is an alpha and he is possessive, but doesn't really get to show it, because there's no one else to lay claim on our heroine until the end. I felt the ending was wrapped up nice and definitely that these two had found their "lobster".
