About this audiobook
Yoga instructor Genevieve Harper is a blond bombshell loaded down with responsibility and sacrifice. She makes the most out of raising her two siblings in the wake of their parents’ tragic accident. At twenty-four, she doesn’t have time to devote to a man…especially not the devastatingly handsome Trent Fox, who’s known for being a “player” on and off the baseball field.
Trent has the best hitting average in the league. Recently, he suffered a torn hamstring that takes him to the Lotus House Yoga Center for recuperation. There he meets the curvy, petite blonde with soulful black eyes and candy-coated glossy lips he’d like to do more to than kiss. He secures the flexible hottie for daily private lessons that ultimately show him how sensual the art of yoga can be.
Can love grow between a woman who’s rooted in her life and a man who resists any notion of staying in one place?
***
If you’re intrigued by the practice of yoga and desire a sensual, intensely erotic, and uniquely spiritual read with characters capable of performing pretzel-like sexual acts, the Lotus House series is for you. Each of the seven books can be read as a standalone but are better read in order. No cliffhangers. Books are erotic romances written for mature audiences 18+.

Don't read this. I'm sorry, but just don't. It's not very well written, it's super juvenile, awkward, and just horribly put together.
Honestly, this is just TERRIBLE. The MMC is horribly misogynistic & just generally gross. The FMC is truly not a believable character. I'm halfway convinced this is a dude author w/ a pseudonym as this is decidedly NOT the female gaze. I'm alternating between bouts of hysterical laughter and extreme grimacing during the sex scenes. I lost it when her breasts were described as "titties" not once but TWICE and I had to put it aside. It's also fatphobic and slightly promotes eating disorders to keep a perfect womanly shape. No thank you. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I have had Resisting Roots on my TBR for ages. I knew nothing about it, didn't read the blurb and continued to put it off because I didn't love the cover. More fool me because I thoroughly enjoyed Trent and Genevieve's story.
Trent has hit rock bottom due to a sports injury and his agent puts his foot down, drawing the line and books him in for Yoga classes. Trent never expects his Yoga instructor to be a 5'2, curvy, blonde bombshell ready to knock down any of his come ons.
My only snag would be Genevieve became very naive at the end when throughout she has been the pillar for her family, as being the sole provider for her siblings. This came as a shock because I loved how strong her character was. Trent is one fine specimen and he does not disappoint in the bedroom at allllll. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Lovely story. Love the yoga explanations too. The narrators did a great job.
