    About this ebook


    IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME

    Novelist Sara Matthews was tired of letting her fictional characters have all the fun. She wanted to be adventurous, daring, a risk taker. And Dakota Wilder was just the man to teach her how.

    Dark and dangerous, he could have stepped out of one of her books except he was a very real man. A man with his own agenda. He hadn't made love to a woman in six months and, much to his surprise, his body was telling him it had to be Saraand only Sara.

    So they struck an outrageous deal: Dakota would tutor Sara in the ways of the world, and in return she would let him have his way with her .

      Ump. Not bad, but a little too firmly in the cliche mode and nothing much to make it stand out. He also got away way too easily with his deception - though proposing before she knew helped. Actually, part of the problem is insufficient conflict - Tarleton gets dealt with, her coolness lasts all of half an hour... And by the way, getting to second base with a woman who's recently been assaulted and barely rescued from a rape shouldn't be that easy. Bah. Nothing bad about it, but nothing much good either.
