Josie Williams needs a date for a highschool reunion. She hires an escort, except Callum McCloud is not an escort. He's only standing in for his kid brother, and he wants to make Josie's every sexual fantasy come true.
I've expected more 'blaze' from a Blaze book, but this story's juices took forever to start flowing. Much of what was supposed to be plot was backstory filler or ever worse, retelling of the information already told through backstory. Characters spend more time chit-chatting about themselves than actually being involved in the drama of romance. I'd hoped that when at last the characters started having sex, that would make for the story's flaws, but no such luck. It took more than half the book to actually get to sex, which ended up being circumspect and too brief. More time is spent on retelling what happened in the bedroom after it happened than actually letting us be witness to it. And, the author seems to have gone out of her way expressing homophobia every chance she got. Quite a disappointment.

Excellent plot! Any 'delayed gratification' was very adequately made up for from page 106 on. I loved it!
Josie Williams needs a date for her ten-year high school reunion. When she showed up five years ago, she came away with mortified memories of a night in tears. This time she intends to arrive with her boyfriend in tow, ready to sparkle and dazzle. Too bad she breaks up with her current boyfriend just before the reunion. At a friend's suggestion, she arranges an escort for the evening. When she meets, however, Josie's fantasies take flight, and she dreams of taking him home as her sex slave for the night.
Callum McCloud's younger brother makes big bucks escorting attractive women. But when his big break comes for his acting career, he is scheduled for a date with Josie. So he convinces his older brother to fill in. Callum did not expect such a sexy lady, and suddenly his libido kicks up to high. Now he is determined to fill every fantasy Josie has on her wish list. But more than lust brews in their heated encounter, and emotions will demonstrate a will of their own.
