By A Customer

This review is from: Temptation's Kiss (Mass Market Paperback)

Josh and Megan share a passionate kiss the night before her wedding to one of his best friends. Shocked by her response and feeling disloyal to her fiance, Megan manages to avoid Josh (her husband's employer) after her marriage. After her husband succumbs to a coronary a year later, Megan dedicates herself to her job as sales manager for a radio station. Three years later, Megan finds herself relentlessly pursued by Josh, who she believes is a heartless womanizer.

I found this book impossible to put down. Very explicit sex.

5.0 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC!! A MUST READ!, June 21, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Temptation's Kiss (Mass Market Paperback)

I love this book! I've read many of Sandra Brown's novels and this is a fantastic one. I think the story line and characters are extremely realistic. I couldn't put the book down and read all night until I reached the end. I can't imagine anyone reading this book and not completely falling in love with Josh and having a true understanding for Megan and her feelings. It was FANTASTIC!

I think that this book was great. If you are looking for something to just make you forget, this book will do the trick. Definately sexual tension throughtout the entire book - and sexy dialogue. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I think you'll enjoy it!
