From #1 New York Times Bestseller Vi Keeland, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

My relationship with Hunter Delucia started backwards.

We met at a wedding—him sitting on the groom’s side, me sitting on the bride’s. Stealing glances at each other throughout the night, there was no denying an intense, mutual attraction.

I caught the bouquet; he caught the garter. Hunter held me tightly while we danced and suggested we explore the chemistry sparking between us. His blunt, dirty mouth should’ve turned me off. But for some crazy reason, it had the opposite effect on me.

We ended up back in my hotel room. The next morning, I headed home to New York leaving him behind in California with the wrong number.

I thought about him often, but after my last relationship, I’d sworn off of charming, cocky, gorgeous-as-sin men. A year later, Hunter and I met again at the birth of our friends’ baby. Our attraction hadn't dulled one bit. After a whirlwind trip, he demanded a real phone number this time. So I left him with my mother’s—she could scare away any man with her talks of babies and marriage—and flew back home.

I’d thought it was funny, until the following week when he rang the bell at Mom’s house for Sunday night dinner. The crazy, gorgeous man had won over my mother and taken an eight-week assignment in my city. He proposed we spend that time screwing each other out of our systems.

Eight weeks of mind-blowing sex with no strings attached? What did I have to lose?

Nothing, I thought.
It’s just sex, not love.
But you know what they say about the best laid plans…

Liezel’s Thoughts:

It has been awhile since I read a book with a considerable amount of angst and Sex, Not Love has it in spades! As soon as Hunter entered the same room as Natalia sparks flew.

Good grief, the chemistry these two had was unbelievable. Even from a distance, it was electrifying but despite the chemistry, they maintained a certain amount of distance. This is what held my attention – figuring out why Hunter and Nat were hesitant about giving their relationship a fighting chance.

They were both perfect. Hunter was attractive, driven, successful and an all-around flirt. He had so much game! Gah, who wouldn’t fall for this guy. Nat was just as amazing as Hunter. I loved that she had so much heart. These two were definitely a great fit!

They had a few issues to work through but as soon as all of those were dealt with, nothing could hold them back. It took them awhile but still the story ends beautifully as I expected. I loved how the sex, (not love) naturally developed into love and sex.

The Verdict:

About Vi Keeland
