I've read Satin & Steele... twice. It's an okay book. The author did make a sinciere effort to write one of the most romantic love story set in the modern world. But somewhere along the way, the story goes lazy. And there are times when you know what's coming next. I would remember Satin & Steele, just like Romeo & Juliet. If you think about it, the most famous love stories are boring, just like its characters. But somehow we remember them & continue doing so. We relate to them as well. Maybe that's what love stories are all about. Well, that's what this book is all about!

Hero wants the heroine, won't take no for an answer, tries to seduce heroine. Heroine is closed off from the world because of an event from her past, is dead inside... till the hero comes and sweeps her off her feet.
Satin and Steele is your typial un-PC short novel from the eighties. Skye is a young woman who lost her husband and unborn child in a car crash 5 years ago. She wants to leave the company she has worked for since then so she can travel and since it is being taken over by a former-pro football player, she feels this is the perfect chance.
Enter James Steele (catch the last name). One look at Skye and he knows she is the one. He sees her cold exterior but knows underneath she is a woman for passion and she must belong to him. He will be the one to break the shell she has hidden herself in all these years.
This story has been told countless times. The reader never gets into the mind of the hero and the heroine's inner dialogue becomes annoying.
Overall a quick read if there is nothing else out there to catch your eye.
