This book number six in the Desire Oklahoma Series. I am a huge fan of Leah Brooke and this series but even as lengthy as the story was out of all of them it was my least favorite. I guess I'll start by telling you briefly what the story is about. This is the story of Ryder and Dillion and Allison. Allison comes to Desire not only to escape her abusive ex and the town that seems to worship his family but to re-become herself under the semblence of a seminar on learning how to sexual please a man, so you don't have to worry about them going elsewhere. Her ex Danny did a real number on her confidence. She meets Ryder and Dillion and is immediately attracted to them but can't get pass what her ex has done and is still doing to her.Through a series of things that happen I found it really hard to like Allison's character. She was abused and because of how the ex treated her, instead of doing the opposite she's hostel but at the wrong time. It made me not like how she treats Dillion and Ryder. It should have been about trust building but the story made her into a user. At times, no matter what anyone in town tells her or they show her she refuses to believe them. I can understand that but when you see things whith your own 2 eyes, then what? And even though the sex scenes are hot in their own right I found I didn't care for Allison so much I was just wanting to get through them to finish the book. I also wished that her character spent more time getting closer to the other wives in Desire because the show of support at the end seems kind of out of place.I liked Dillion and I liked Ryder even more and I wish I liked Allison then I could have loved this story. But I liked well enough to read future books in the series.
