REVIEW: Tell Me Something by Aubrey Bondurant
The sexual tension is palpable; the erotic path they’re on is inevitable. Haylee Holloway has experienced more grief than a twenty-two year old should have to endure. When she moves to LA for a fresh start and takes a job as an assistant for an advertising company the last thing she expects is to have to step in last minute during a photo shoot as the model. Her bikini line and weight are suddenly open topics of discussion, and a client’s million dollar campaign is hanging in the balance. To cap it off, the multi-millionaire owner of the company shows up and takes charge. Josh Singer, the owner of Gamble Advertising is private, intense, and hard to read. His voice is sexy, his eyes are smoldering and when he learns of Haylee’s goal to save money for law school, he makes her an offer she can’t refuse: To move to New York City and work for him directly as his assistant. Haylee’s dilemma: how does she travel the world with a boss whose voice alone conjures up a romantic fantasy and not completely make a fool of herself? Frustrated with Josh’s mixed signals, Haylee finally puts it all on the line. Blurring both their professional and personal lives can they keep things temporary as planned or will they both realize some things weren’t meant to end?
REVIEW
I couldn't actually remember buying this but I saw it on my kindle on a plane and I actually got hooked pretty quick. But then I found I was reading for ages and not actually making a dent in it. It is a very long book!! The one thing I loved most was the SEXXXX. It was hot and I loved their chemistry and need for each other. The only thing that let me down was how obvious the resolution was to the problem. It was very predictable and I felt disappointed that it was an easy way out to solve the thing keeping them at a distance - without giving it away. If you're set on proper HEA's then you'll love it, if you prefer a twist then you'll be left disappointed.
I didn't hate it, I liked the characters but I found they were a bit too perfect. Being model pretty, smart, fit and being able to speak 4 languages is just a bit crazy so you're definitely not going to find anything particularly realistic in there. But the sex was good, also not realistic. One of those 'has sex, comes inside her and then go to sleep straight away' kind of sex stories. We all know you can't just roll over after that. Bleugh.
It doesn't finish on a cliff hanger and the conclusion is enough for me that I don't feel the need to read the rest of the books.
If you want a more leisurely read, like the kind of book you read an hour of every night for a couple of weeks, then this would be great!
