Luc Angeli spent his youth trying to earn the approval of his philandering father. Now he’s his own man, but there’s still something missing from his life.

My Review

On her eighteenth birthday Madison Philips got her birthday wish. Luc Angeli the boy she loved took her virginity. He also walked away and told her to find someone else to love. Now years later Madison is far from the girl from the trailer park. She became a successful model and build a wonderful company. She has come back to Vegas to get revenge on Luc. Luc has changed in many ways from the boy trying to follow his dads footsteps to who he is now. When he sees Madison he knows what he wants and that is Madison in life. He just has to convince her he has changed for the better.

Madison has come far in her life. She has changed and grown up in many ways. The only problem she has is Luc is still a big part of her life even if he doesn't know it. She has to get him out of her head. I liked her and how she pushed to become better. She has that scorned woman feel that I know several of us have felt like. Luc is a very sexy rich man used to getting what he wants. He used to be a user but has changed in many ways. I like the man he is now and I could see the appeal he would have to a teen girl years ago. 

This is a short story but a great one. You have two remarkable characters and plenty of steaminess between them. The story has a good plot to it so it's not just a sexy book. You actually do get a story line. The sexiness of this story is just a plus. It is a quick read but sure to please many people. It will wet your appetite for more of the authors work. If you are looking for a spicy read pick this one up and be prepare to look up more of the authors work.
