Our customer reviews
Laura and Ethan were college acquaintances. Laura spent a lot of her free time fantasizing (and fondling, *wink*) over the uber-hot Ethan. After Ethan rejects her drunken advances at a college party, Laura spent the rest of the time at university avoiding him. But she never forgot him, especially on lonely nights. So when fate, and a blizzard, lands them in a remote cabin hideaway, Laura and Ethan decide to make up for missed opportunities, and lost time.
I appreciated that the story didn't take forever to set up. I know that at approximately one hundred pages, the author couldn't waste time, but still, kudos. Laura and Ethan immediately get down to business, which is ultimate fantasy fulfillment, for the duration of the stay. When they leave the cabin, the two are to forget all the down and dirty that happens. Umm... nice in theory, I guess, but there's not even a slim chance that either one won't be using those memories for "future reference".
The smexy is good and plentiful. I mean, really plentiful. Ethan must have boundless "resources" because the man honestly seems to have a full tank, if ya know what I'm saying. The scenes are nicely set up, and the foreplay is good. The finish did seem to be a bit abrupt at certain points, but hey, it happens. ;-)
The story arc was a bit predictable, but that's fine. I did enjoy HEAT RISES. It was a super quick read and I will NEVER look at maple syrup the same way again. Mmmmm...
