Rivals for the runways. Enemies in the industry. And for a single sinfully hot night, they’re about to indulge in the one thing they’re not allowed…each other.

Fashion executive Riley Gold knows that appearances are everything. And New Year’s Eve in Milan is no exception. If Riley’s going to have a reputation for being an “ice princess,” then she’s going to be flawless, glacier-cold perfection. Especially when Chaz Warren is here, looking too damn good, too damn sexy…and every inch the enemy.

Not only are their families fashion archrivals, but social media mogul Chaz Warren is a player—and the world knows it. But for one X-rated night, Riley will give in to the electric lust that’s always been crackling between them. All it takes is a searing kiss to turn the heat from simmering to full-on passion…

Riley thought one night with Chaz would be enough. But it’s not enough, not nearly. Now Riley and Chaz are having a private—and completely naughty—affair, and hiding the scandalizing truth from both the tabloids and their feuding families. But keeping her deliciously hot enemy close won’t just melt the ice around Riley’s heart…he could incinerate it completely.

 

A secret hook-up, a family rivalry, and non-stop temptation! PRIVATE AFFAIR by A.C. Arthur is quite the delight with high-powered characters, a hint of mystery and best of all is the steamy connection between this less than ideal match up.

Riley was an easy character to like. She is no nonsense and accepts nothing less than perfection … from herself and others. If she’s going to be labeled an “ice princess” by the industry because of that, then she will be sure to wear it well.

Chaz is yummy. His father-figure uncle is Riley’s dad’s biggest rival in the fashion industry, so they are supposed to dislike each other on sight, but a New Year’s Eve party in Milan is temptation neither of them seem to want to resist. It was supposed to be one night, but neither of them can stay away from the other.

I recommend this book to anyone looking for a fast paced steamy read with a lot of heart and a touch of intrigue to round the story out. Really enjoyed them!

“We can’t see each other again…

and I think you know why.”

After an impulsive one-night stand with Jacob Stone, Teagan Hunter is appalled to discover he’s a lawyer intent on suing her media mogul brother. They’re done. But Jacob pursues the understated heiress…and Teagan is tempted. Could the powerhouse attorney be the one to give Teagan the new lease on life she desperately needs? Or is this a star-crossed scandal waiting to explode?

 

One night turns into a forbidden love affair! THE CASE FOR TEMPTATION, part of the About That Night series by Robyn Grady was a really fun read. A chance meet up at a bar, a forbidden night of passion … and just when they realize they feel a connection and want to pursue something more, the real world rears it’s ugly head.

Teagan Hunter is a head-strong confident business owner who didn’t want to rely on her family’s glitz and reputation to make her way in life, so she struck off on her own. In town for a wedding, Tea can’t resist the temptation of a sexy night with a handsome man.

Jacob Stone can’t believe his luck in connecting with such an amazing woman at a wedding, but as the night is simmering down he realizes exactly who she is … the sister of the man he’s about to sue for a client! Talk about awkward.

I recommend this book to anyone looking for a steamy connection with a good bit of family drama and heartfelt sentiment mixed into the story line. I’m looking forward to seeing more of the Rawson family.
