Book Description

Release date: July 3, 2012 | Series: A Loving on the Edge Novel

Her first love has returned, and he's brought a friend...
 
After running away from home and the boy who broke her heart, Evan Kennedy has kick-started the perfect new life with her celebrity fiancé. So what if said fiancé prefers guys? She knew the deal. And with her ticket to The Ranch, an exclusive resort where any fantasy can be satisfied, she knows she can find someone to fulfill her less-than-traditional desires on the side.
 
She just never expected that man to be Jace Austin, her old heart-breaker--all grown up, hard-bodied, and holding out a collar. She knows it's probably a world-class bad idea--especially since Jace has brought along his buddy Andre, who's every bit as irresistible. But if they can stick to the no-strings rules, so can she.
 
Too bad Jace has never been so good with rules. Evan is convinced "forever" is a word used only in greeting cards, but Jace and Andre have one last fantasy of hers left to fulfill. It's time to go big or go home. And neither man has ever been a fan of going home.

Melt into You by Roni Loren
Contemporary Romance -July 3rd, 2012
4 1/2 stars

Melt into You is the second novel in the author's erotic Loving on the Edge series.

Evan and Jace have a past. Evan was a teenage foster kid with a crush on Jace, the son of the family she was living with. His kind attention attracts her, but quickly turn bad when they succumb to passion and Evan believes that Jace never loved her. She runs away and finds herself destitute and on the streets until she finds a friend named Daniel. Together Daniel and Evan create a lucrative and popular relationship team. Evan poses as his fiancée. Now she has everything: success, money, security. The only thing is Daniel is gay! But they need to keep their façade for the business they have created together. But their plans are derailed when one of the speakers at their seminar is Jace. The owner of Wicked which caters sex toys among other things. And Jace is hotter, sexier and on the prowl. He knows he hurt Evan but he can't seem to stop thinking of her even if she is engaged to another man. As they are forced to work together the temperature rises.

Things become complicated when Evan is surprised by a special present from Daniel. He gives her a vacation to The Ranch, an exclusive sex club that can fulfill the repressed needs that Daniel can't fulfill. But to her surprise, she finds that Jace works there and so does his equally sexy friend Andre. Jace and his partner Andre are determined to fulfill her every fantasy. Only what happens when deeper emotions become involved. What will Evan do and how will Jace react to the lies she has been hiding?

This is one steamy book. When Evan decides to go to The Ranch to figure out what she wants, does she ever get more than she expected! This sexual odyssey will make many readers blush. It was smokin' hot and intense, and Evan is just started to explore her sexuality and it was thrilling to read her become more comfortable with her body. As she explores the world of BDSM I was as spell-bound as her! This story also includes: ménage scenes, a M/M scene and plenty of voyeurism -it is not for the timid! I loved how Evan got to live out fantasies she didn't even know she had. It felt realistic and not overdone. Jace and Andre are used to sharing. Both are very dominant and totally devoted to her pleasure. But they soon find themselves attached to her. Talk about double the pleasure! It was also interesting to read that for the first time that `sharing' a woman really bothered Jace and how shocked and possessive he felt of Evan. I also liked how he wants her to be happy. And when they both decided to show her what she is missing if she marries her fiancée, there is no holding back!

Readers who enjoy Shayla Black's novels will love this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loren hits it out of the park again July 5, 2012

By Stephanie Lawton

You know how everyone has a couple authors that no matter what they write, you'll buy it and read it without even reading the description? Roni Loren's one of those authors for me. She never disappoints.

Although some of the material in Melt Into You wasn't exactly up my alley (oh, that's such a bad, Freudian pun) Loren has an amazing talent for presenting things so deftly and diplomatically that readers can't help but get drawn in. Yes, people, there is a plot and a darn good one.

I adored the heroine, Brynn, in Loren's first book, Crash Into You, but I really loved Evan in this book for her personal flaws. The characters are captivating, extremely well-developed and of course, swoon-worthy. Loren's hit another one out of the park and I look forward to the next book in the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Melt Into You August 10, 2012

By M. Whitmore VINE™ VOICE

I really enjoyed Melt Into You. Even though it's only the 2nd book of the series (with a novella in-between) it's my favorite book so far. We met Jace in book 1 and I instantly liked him. He owns a sex store called Wicked. He's the black sheep of the family and loves it. Too bad his father doesn't and their strained relationship affects Jace's relationship with the rest of his family. When Jace was 19, his family hosted a 16 year old foster girl, Evan. The attraction was there and undeniable and though Jace tried to do the right thing, he gave in to temptation and Evan ran away. Fast forward 12 years and Evan's life is picture perfect. She's engaged to Dr. Dan, a successful psychiatrist and is about to have the stability and life she's always wanted. Until she runs into Jace and threatens everything.

I love The Ranch. Can I go visit? I kid. I don't think I have the balls. The history between Jace and Evan is complicated and rich. They both feel guilty about their one night stand but for different reasons. It's an uphill battle with Jace and Evan trusting each other enough to open up. Throw in sexy Andre to stir the pot and make things even more complicated.

I was hesitant about buying the menage turned romance story. I always feel like someone ultimately gets left out of the emotion and the loving. Ms. Loren expertly spends equal time and plot with Jace/Evan, Andre/Evan and Jace/Andre. I was wondering how Jace's and Andre's relationship would be handled and I thought it was done well. It made sense and I was satisfied.

I love this series and can't wait to read book 3. From the preview, I think it's Grant's book - the owner of The Ranch. I was kinda hoping it would be Wyatt, Jace's brother. Wyatt is wound tight and it looks like he needs a lot of Ranch in his life.

Definitely check out this series. It's sexy and hot with great characters and plot. There's a great balance between the sex and the romance that I really love and think is hard to do. You care about these characters outside the bedroom and this is why I enjoy this series so much.
