This review is from: Blazing Bedtime Stories, Volume III: The Body That Launched a Thousand Ships\You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs... (Harlequin Blaze) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book follows in the true form of turning fairy tales in to great erotic fantasies. In The body that launched a thousand ships: I like how Ari wants Elena but isn't sure what to make of her once he has her. He knows he is falling for her but thinks she doesn't feel the same for him and he doesn't know what to do. Ari at first is the stereo typical bad boy who leaps first and looks later. Elena however makes him look at his life and look to make a change. In you have to kiss a lot of frogs: Sebastian is the kind of man who thinks he is god's gift to woman and finds one woman who doesn't care for that. she casts a spell on him that only one woman can break it is the one woman he doesn't want to go after. he has fought his attraction to Jordon but sometimes lust and maybe even love is stronger than any spell if you are willing to try.

This review is from: Blazing Bedtime Stories, Volume III: The Body That Launched a Thousand Ships\You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs... (Harlequin Blaze) (Mass Market Paperback)

"The Body That Launched a Thousand Ships" by Tori Carrington. Greek-American Elena Anastasios accepts the marriage proposal of Greek magnate Manolis Philippidis, a close friend of her late father. Encouraged by her widowed mom, she and her family live in luxury like royalty rather than in a water-stained Seattle apartment. All seems perfect until she meets Ari Metaxas.

"You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs" by Tawny Weber. Magazine writer Sebastian Lane is cursed with impotency when he investigates the sexual proclivities of the members of a witch's club. He will remain impotent until he puts a woman's needs before his own and his delicate condition will haunt him. The daughter of his boss Jordan Oliver is assumed to be an idle rich female who struggles to get anyone to accept she is intelligent and wants to do something with her life. They meet at her father's cabin where he has that chance the witches demanded of him, but will he accept Jordan's needs sincerely or revert to form?

These are two heated novellas in which a lead protagonist in each tale confronts morality issues. Although the format limits development of key characters including lovers, fans will enjoy Tori Carrington's Elena and Tawny Weber's Sebastian having to choose between what each knows is the morally correct answer vs. the expedient response.
