Customer Reviews

Sizzling! Very highly recommended

Author Jane Langston penned the self-help book THE SEX FACTOR, encouraging women to seek emotionally fulfilling relationships rather than focus on sex. While hugely successful with women, however, the book elicited an outcry of protest among men who suddenly find they are sleeping alone. Jane appears on shock jock Jax Reed's talk show to defend her book and her ideals, only to find herself in possible danger from a threatening listener. Jax recommends that Jane seek protection and recommends his own security service. When her sister seconds the recommendation following further threats, Jane contacts Luke Nicoletti. Luke fails to understand how a woman as hot as Jane can recommend celibacy. His own previous girlfriend ditched him after following Jane's advice, and Luke agrees with the general consensus among men that Jane just has not met the right man yet. Certainly when she meets Luke she suddenly wants to throw caution to the wind and explore the sizzling chemistry that they share. Furthermore, in spite of their business relationship, Luke wants to explore the possibilities that their passion presents and prove that her book's premise is wrong. Fans of Jamie Sobrato's previous Harlequin Blaze release SOME LIKE IT SIZZLING will recognize her scintillating style in WHAT A GIRL WANTS. Indeed, Sobrato demonstrates a remarkable gift for capturing the heart of what a girl wants in a sizzling combination of emotional possibility and sensual promise that readers will treasure. As Sobrato explores the dynamics between desire and love, readers will be amused at the contradictions and convolutions both Jane and Luke must confront. Realistic portrayals provide rich characterization and a delightful plot that will tempt the reader to complete the book in a single sitting. Add WHAT A GIRL WANTS to the keeper shelf and watch for more from this talented romance author. Very highly recommended.

Interesting and sexy!

Jane Langston is a professional advice-columnist who recently wrote a best-seller self-help book called "The Sex Factor." In it, she tells women that when physical intimacy and sex occur too soon in a relationship, they sabotage their ability to gain emotional intimacy from the relationship. Jane's advice is to stop having sex without emotional intimacy. Obviously, women love the book, and men hate it. Some men hate it more than others, and Jane begins receiving threatening letters, and phone calls. She is advised to hire a security expert to protect herself from these threats.Luke Nicoletti is the security expert that Jane hires. Of course, he and Jane are sexually attracted to each other from the beginning. As their relationship escalates, so do the threats from Jane's stalker.I really enjoyed this book. I like reading romance novels, but I usually skip through 6 or 7 mediocre romances before I find one that gets my attention. The story held my attention so that I read it through at one sitting. The writing is very well done. The situations are believable & I thought the characters in this novel were well developed - and they don't act totally out of character in order to further the story. I was particularly pleased to see that the Luke is not the stereotypical macho man, but a well-rounded, masculine personality with a lot of self confidence.Sex scene rating: Spicy hot!
