Sex guru Dr. Fiona Bliss runs a for-women-only spa where ladies unleash their inner goddess, basking like Aphrodite in flowing robes while buff men cater to their every need. But stuntwoman Andy McAllister doesn't have time for a massage. Not when her eccentric Aunt Matilda has disappeared into Blissland. Disguising herself as a rich, mousy client, Andy runs straight into P.I. Dillon Roth, who's undercover himself, investigating the untimely death of a spa guest. Fall in love with the guy? She could do that in a heartbeat. Get ready for world-class backstabbing, radical romance, and hilarious bitchery. And when the investigation heats up, Andy and Dillon are ready for sheet-scorching fun...

From Booklist

All Andy wanted was a nice vacation in Acapulco; as a professional stuntwoman, she needs a break. But when her family informs her that Aunt Mac has gone missing while searching for her hidden goddess at the Terra Bliss retreat in Lake Tahoe, her plan is scotched. So here she is, playing sleuth incognito as an ugly duckling. Dillon Cross is also at the Terra Bliss retreat, but he is a real sleuth, trying to find a murderer among the denizens of this haven devoted to female empowerment. He is also incognito, posing as a scantily clad attendant eager to meet any need a woman might have. Andy and Dillon pair up, but instead of joining forces, they keep their secrets. It isn't until there's another murder that they end up working together. With a heroine who is as strong--and often even stronger--than a man, Bruce's romance is a sure thing for readers who like a sexy, sassy story. Maria Hatton

Review

"A sexy comedy with romance that sizzles the pages, Bruce expertly interlaces the story with small-town humor."

4.0 out of 5 stars lighthearted but hot satirical romantic mystery, December 31, 2006

This review is from: Who Wants To Be a Sex Goddess (Paperback)

The four evil genies demand that Ariadne McAllister go undercover to learn what happened to her Aunt Mac who never came home from her three weeks at obtaining the "eternal orgasm" at the Terra Bliss sex goddess spa in the Lake Tahoe Mountains. Her mom, her two siblings and their housekeeper insist they are too busy so since she finished shooting she is the only one available to investigate. The stuntwoman begs for time off as she worked hard on location, but knows she will be driving immediately to Tahoe as mousy Miss Marple.

Investigator Dillon Cross is working undercover as a male slave; make that attendant, at Terra Bliss as he investigates a homicide of a wealthy patron of the Goddess International crowd. He notices two things upon arrival at Terra Bliss; the guards are armed to do more than keep out bears and how sexy the mouse Ariadne is. He is her personal attendant and just touching her accidentally gave his groin a rush he has not felt since high school. As each make inquires while hiding their investigation from the other, both deny the attraction that heats the mountains to equatorial temperatures.

WHO WANTS TO BE A SEX GODDESS? is an amusing charmer in which the suspense comes late as the lead couple meets and hides their undercover activities by under cover activities. The lead couple is a delightful pairing as both deny their feelings while distrusting the other with their not so hidden agenda as they trip over one another while making inquiries. Fans who appreciate lighthearted but hot satirical romantic mysteries will want to read Gemma Bruce's lampooning of the sub-genre.
