I really liked this book. It contains three short stories, perfect for those times when you need something to read, but not enough time for a full length novel.The first is called "Seduced by the American Millionaire". It is the story of Jenny, a single mother of twin boys (now in college), and Richard, a wealthy bar owner. Jenny thinks Richard is handsome, dangerous, and dominate. Richard finds Jenny to be innocent, beautiful and captivating.The second story "Blackmailed into Bed" is the story of Amy, a school teacher and single mother, and Jake, a policeman. They meet when he conducts a 10 week series of 'Dare' lectures for her class. For the entire 10 weeks, they lust for each other, but he thinks she is married and makes no attempt to date her. When her car stalls on a lonely road one night, they get reacquainted.Number 3 is "Bedded by the Boss", the story of Renee and Robert. Renee has been hired to be Robert Thibodeaux's personal assistant. Robert is irresistibly attracted to Renee. Because he doesn't want to mix business and pleasure,he tries to force her to quit so that he can date her. Although the attraction is mutual, Renee is not about to quit her job.The author manages to give us just enough information about the characters to make us feel we know and like them and she skillfully weaves an interesting tale within the confines of a short story. Her work is blessedly free from distracting grammatical and spelling errors and her writing style is flawless. Each book is complete and requires no additional purchases. I would recommend this book and will definitely read more of her books.
