Tempt Me Tonight

By Toni Blake

He was her first: the first man she longed for, the first man she truly desired. Then he betrayed her and broke her heart. Now her revenge will be oh-so-sweet . . . and hot!

Trish Henderson has returned home to Eden to take care of some family business . . . and some personal business, as well. Though she's achieved remarkable success as a high-powered Chicago attorney, Trish has never forgotten her small-town high school sweetheart, Joe Ramsey, or the devastation of heartbreak.

Now she's come face-to-face with the gorgeous sex god Joe has grown into, and she's determined to get him out of her system once and for all—and maybe take a little revenge, too. And this time, she has all the power. After all, where is it written that only men can explore and enjoy a physical relationship without commitment? Her plan: seduce him for just one night, then walk away . . .

But there's just one problem. Trish is about to find out that one night with Joe may never be enough . . .

[dawn772 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Nice steamy beginning to story with a good plot but it started getting heavy with mental debate and insecurities so I skimmed some. I waffled a bit on believability and my rating is 3.5* Attorney Trish returns to hometown and encounters old boyfriend Joe the mechanic.

Tempt Me Tonight was my first foray into the erotica genre and it was fantastic. Blake sucked me in emotionally right from the start with the chemistry between Joe and Trish as teenagers. She broke my heart and spent the rest of the book putting it back together, one yummy sex scene at a time.

I will say that the dialogue during the sex scenes could have been stricken all together (there's only so much "Oh God! Oh Joe! and "Baby, you're so hot" we need to read, you know?) but other than that, the word choices and variety of the love scenes were impressive. I particularly liked the one out in the rain against the truck. :)

Kudos to Blake for weaving a steamy tale with characters I rooted for!
