Coin Operated by Ginny Glass* I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*One ad campaign was all it took to push Eli over the edge he's barely been hanging onto.  He has had daydreams and fantasies about Bea for awhile but he is afraid that his sex games will scare her away.Bea has been in lust with her partner since she first set eyes on him.  He doesn't see her as anything but the competent business partner that takes care of everything.  She secretly desires for him to dominate her.The story is full of sexual tension between the two.  They want each other but both are afraid of rejection.  Eli has already scared off one lover with his sexual behavior and is afraid Bea will think he is a pervert too.  Over the course of time Bea has fallen in love with him and she is afraid he will never feel the same way about her.It turns out all it took was their latest client and a smoking ad campaign for them to give in to their desire.  I think the ad campaign, especially the red scarf was a nice touch and a great tie in to their fantasies. I think the characters are well developed and the story flows nicely.This novella from Carina Press is an enjoyable read that I would recommend.  I give Coin Operated 3 flaming hearts.
