One to today's best writers of romantic comedy!, October 20, 2004
Julia Boudreaux does not know how to be anything BUT wild and sexy. However, her deceased father left so much debt behind that Julia had to do something! Okay, she can do without all the luxuries and has already paid off much of the debts. (Shown while Julia was a secondary character in the first two books titled "Suddenly Sexy" and "Sinfully Sexy".) Yet she still has far to go. To that end, she decides to create a new TV hit, a reality show, where she is going to turn rugged West Texas men into sensitive guys.
Undercover cop Ben Prescott is shot in the thigh. Not wanting to keep his brother, Sterling, and his new wife from taking their honeymoon trip, Ben promises to remain in Julia's huge house as he recovers. Julia wants HIM to be her first make-over candidate. Of course he refuses. No one, including Julia, knows he is a cop and the last thing an undercover cop needs is to be plastered all over the TV or in newspapers ... especially while (once he is physically able) he is searching for his partner's killer.
***** I cannot express how disappointed I am that this trilogy is closing. This book, in my opinion, is the best of the three. It had me on the edge of my seat in some areas, diving into totally HOT scenes in others, and laughing aloud in still others! However, I console myself by repeating over and over "She will write another book. She will write another book. She will write another book." Author Linda Francis Lee creates realistic characters, each with their own set of personalities, and does it all in such a way that I come to actually care for the characters. When a book leaves you wishing for more, it is time to put that author's name on your "favorites" list. And Linda Francis Lee is definitely on mine! This entire trilogy is much like the author herself, OUTSTANDING! *****

Best of the three., November 9, 2004
I was blown away by Ben and Julia's story. I think this was the best story out of all three and I loved every one of them. Ben turned out to be an amazing man. Absolutly wonderful. It is really sad that this is the last book of the trilogy. Linda definetly saved the best for last and I hope there are more like this one out there or comming. This was a magical tale of love and was wonderfully written. It had everything. It was funny and the characters were written great. You got to see them grow themselves and grow together. Ben is more of a "real" man then you usually see in a character. And knowing Julia from the past two books, you get real insight into her, her life and choices. I cant say enough about this book. Ben was a dream. At the end, the last two or three chapters, had me falling all over myself. I could only dream of someone so insightful. The chemistry was enough to make me jealous and I cried at what he did for her. I had to go back and read it again. Then one more time. Needless to say, this is going on my keeper shelf, is now one of my favorites and I will read it multiple times. Its a page turner too. Like I said I cant say enough. I love everything abou it. There is too much praise for this book, this book is one that makes you wish.........

Saving The Best For Last!!!, December 6, 2004
This is without a doubt the best in the "Sexy Series" and that's saying something since each and every book was great!
The chemistry and personalities of Ben and Julia were wonderfully matched. Ms. Lee is truly a wonderful voice in romance and her reads are not only fast but extremly entertaining. I managed to read this story in one day and was so sad to say goodbye at the very end.
The secondary storyline of Ben's was just as good as the romance between him and Julia. Both are wounded in different ways but see beyond the hurt of the other to what lays deep down. This was a very sensual read and one that I highly recommend without any qualms. For a wonderful read that you can sink into I suggest Ms. Lee.
