I will confess I'm so totally overwhelmed at the moment and cannot remove the smile from my face, but I have great reason to feel this happy.
Now, I know us authors are told to take a review with a pinch of salt, but this review 'Holy Hotness' means the world to me as this is the first novel I have written without a co-author. Anxious to go alone, I had much to consider when dropping my co-author, afraid I would mess up, afraid I couldn't do a book without someone guiding me, however, with the amazing staff at Secret Cravings and my wonderful editor, I achieved my first alone published works Dan's Desires, book 5 in the Desires series.
The review from Amazon
Holy Hotness
To be honest, the only the only thing I didn't like was some of the slang differences from over the pond. There were times when I had to look up a phrase or two because I didn't understand it. I only recently have broadened my horizons to across the way, so I don't understand 100% of the lingo. That's by no means the fault of any author. This book was hot and steamy without losing the story line of love and fighting for it.
Dan got talked into being a male escort while in college. He thought, why not? I love sex and I can get paid for it. What more could a horny young man ask for. He had lost all illusions of love in college. He thought he was in love and decided to cut all the other women out of his life. However his girlfriend didn't feel the same way. It left Dan crushed and he totally cut of all of his feelings off. When his first escort job recommends Desire's, he's not sure if it's something he could do. He does research on the place and feels Desire's will put him in a better position than escorting. He still has that carefree feeling with sex and no love. He even starts sleeping with the boss. Angel is very commanding and not always is her style of sex his cup of tea. Angel starts sending him the less attractive clientele but he's so wrapped up in his own world he doesn't feel the warning bells like he should.
Then SHE walks into his life. Stacie Clifford. She's beautiful in every sense of the word and for once he can't just lay with her and go. That's not why she's at Desire's. Just ending an abusive marriage, Stacie needs so much more than a tussle in the sheets. She needs to meet her femininity again, get to know herself, and get her confidence back. She can't even look Dan in the eye when they first meet. He knows that he has to go slow with her and it's the ultimate torture. The more sessions that she books with him, the more he realizes that she has made him a man and despite his contract, he's falling in love. He knows to have Stacie he'll have to leave Desire's. But little does he know that Angel has other plans and will not let him go without a fight.

Excerpt
Hot! Seductive. Dan the man, at his best!
“Right, here we go,”
Shannon said, knocking on the door and then entered. Dan entered the office and
his eyes widened at the room’s surprisingly masculine decor. Dark panelling
covered all the walls, illuminated by several small lights placed strategically throughout the room. A large, old, oak desk dominated the
space, sitting against the far wall. The only nod to femininity was several
vanilla candles, which scented the room with their subtle fragrance. The office
was immaculate.
The desk held only a phone and a laptop. Behind it was a large leather swivel chair.
He stood admiring the office when suddenly a dominating looking woman
appeared—young, slim, twenty-something, with a shimmering sheet of black hair
rippling down her back. She wore a formal business
suit, and black-framed glasses perched on her finely-shaped nose, but even in
the severe attire, she was stunning. She was tall and her height was further
enhanced by her towering platform heels. This woman was the
epitome of confidence.
“Sorry about that,” she said.
Dan couldn’t believe the
building was littered with sexy women. He hoped there were men somewhere, but
then the thought of it only being him turned him on.
He noticed Angel looking
up and down at him, wondering if she was noticing his young boyish-charm.
“Please take a seat,” she
said and made her way around to the other side of the desk.
The interview started and
Angel put him on the spot and asking him about his opinion on varied topics,
making him aware some guests wanted conversation as
well as sex and someone who was more than just a him-bo—all brawn and no
brains—would be an asset.
However, the sex was also
important, so the conversation soon veered. “So tell me…what are your main
talents?” she’d asked, as he watched her licking her lips seductively, leaning forward and staring into his eyes.
“I know how to please a
woman and make her feel special,” he said, sitting comfortably on the leather
sofa.
“And how would you make a
woman feel special?” she asked, standing up and walking around the desk. His eyes were fully focused on her.
“I tell them what they
want to hear,” he said, his voice calm.
“Show me,” she said. She
rested her buttocks on the desk and waited.
Dan stood and approached
Angel, maintaining eye contact. He moved closer to her.
He stood before her, his legs touching hers. He leaned forward, blowing his
breath over her face aware how much women liked it. His cock pulsed.
He moved to her right ear
and whispered, “You are the most beautiful, most desirable woman I think I have
ever seen. Your hair is perfection, your lips divine,
and your body exquisite.” He dropped a kiss on her cheek. She released a sweet
gasp. His lips pressed against the earlobe. “Your voice makes me want to fall
to my knees and howl at the moon while I worship the
perfection that is you.” Dan gripped the lobe with his teeth and licked before
releasing it. His hands went to her waist and he noticed her closing her eyes
at his touch. “If I could make love to you, and only you, for the rest of my
life, I would desire nothing else till I die.” His
thumbs stroked her waist and she drew in a shuddering breath.
Angel gazed into his
eyes. “Um…wow, great…um,” she said, wriggling out from his hold and shooting
around to the other side of her desk. “Right, well…I will give you a little trial…see how you connect with the clients
and well…yes,” she said, as he heard stuttering in her breathing, wishing she
would come back so he could truly entertain her.
“I need you to sign this
contract…all workers sign it. It states you will have
no emotional involvement with any of the clients,” she said, as he watched her
digging in her drawer and passing a copy of the contract across the desk.
He took the pen and
signed it without reading it. “You trust me?” she said.
Dan met her surprised gaze. “Why shouldn’t I? I am simply here to earn some
extra cash and do something I enjoy. I have no intention of getting emotionally
involved with anyone,” he said, passing the contract back across the desk.
