This was a surprisingly good read. I thought Max and Anna were genuine, likable characters. Their affection for each other and the obstacles they faced were very believable. The sex was pretty steamy and I was rooting for them to get their HEA. I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series.
Yes, the sex was hot & steamy, and this author is very good at erotica, but this scenario has been done to death, and basically, - been there, done that. Ms. Schroeder doesn't add anything new or titilating to the mix (the sex is straight vanilla), so - ok, call me jaded - but I found it all rather boring.

This book was short but well written. I really enjoyed how uptight and controlled Max became loose and a bit wild. With a man who was on track to have a heart attack at an early age I was so happy when Anna was able to seduce him and get him to see how a little fun never hurt anyone. I enjoyed seeing how two different and long friend individuals finally got together.
