ARC Review: DESIRE by Simone Sowood

Sometimes fate lands on your lap...

Leo:
A stunning woman approaches me in my hotel lobby.
She's dressed for sin. And I'm a sinner.
I brush past her and, the next thing I know, she flings herself across me in the backseat of my cab.
I didn’t want an escort tonight, but the look of her lying in my lap is impossible to resist.
Except she's not what I thought. They never are.
Young. Beautiful. Innocent. I can't get her out of my head.
She's not to be trusted. But one night in my bed won't do any harm.

Grace:
Leo is way hotter than I’d anticipated when my boss dressed me up and sent me out to lure him into saving our company.
Sure, he’s arrogant and rude but the air around us is electric. Unable to resist, I wear the red dress and give him my virginity.
It’s just one time but there’s something more between us, something real, I’m sure of it.
Until I end up pregnant and Leo disappears off the face of the earth.

MY REVIEW

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

3.5 “Falling Fast” stars!!

It was mistaken identity, lust at first sight, comedic relief, and intense chemistry all rolled into one. Leo was a multi-billionaire toy company owner who was looking for a way out. Stuck at another stuffy event, he’s not so surprised when a beautiful woman approaches him as a date. Assuming she’s an escort that he didn’t even hire, he treats her as such. At least until Grace lets him know she’s just another person after his money. Except, that’s not what she’s really after. After a lot of miscommunication, these two combust beautifully in a service closet. One thing leads to the next and they find themselves travelling the road to love.

There was very little drama, very little conflict, and very few things to get upset about. It was steamy and extremely easy to read. It was a little on the sweeter side for this author, which was an okay change of pace. I look forward to what she delivers to us next!
