I'm absolutely loving that authors like Lucy Score are bringing a touch of reality to characters by making them need to exercise and eat healthy (most of the time) to maintain their hot bodies. For a wee while there, the main characters were alcohol guzzling, pizza eating, workaholics who lived on four hours of sleep a night. It always seemed effortless for these heroines and their boobs were always perky, legs lusciously long and skin perfectly clear. I wish it was effortless...
Sure, I'm always up for an escape from reality, but with age, I'm realising that I'm picky where I want to focus that escape from reality. Give me characters that are realistic in their everyday lives...BUT...give me a hero that's comfortable sharing the mushy gushy words. I'm a sucker for mushy gushy words. Unfortunately, while I love my hubby, getting mushy-gushy words is like pulling teeth. Sure, I get *I love you* regularly but I would love my hubby to make one of those big gesture declarations like they do in some of my favourite romance reads.
Which bring me to why I enjoyed Fall into Temptation...
Lucy Score has treated me to another story with realistic characters, faults and all, with heroes that bring out the big guns when it comes to their declarations of love. I was left extremely satisfied with my trip back to Blue Moon and I'm very keen to visit again soon.
The new yoga instructor also happens to be Beckett's new tenant and the daughter of his mom's new boyfriend. Beckett is struggling with his attraction to the sexy and very limber woman with fiery red hair. She's not at all his usual type but after the last woman he dated, he has come to realise that maybe it's time to change things up a little. Beckett soon realises that things are about to change a lot in his world when he can't seem to get Gia off his mind. Those kids of hers are making it even harder to resist the temptation of his Red.
Gia doesn't have time for a relationship with the sexy Mayor. Between setting up her new business, settling her kids into a new area and balancing the everyday problems a mother usually faces, she can't risk dropping one of her balls. She can't deny the attraction, though. The more time they spend together, the more her heart is at risk. For a while they attempt to keep things platonic... then after that fails they attempt to keep thing strictly sexual... then after that fails they attempt to keep things private... Things are definitely about to change in Gia, Even and Aurora's (her kids) world.
I love the town of Blue Moon and all its occupants. Their quirky matchmaking team are hilarious and I loved that they maintain a very high level of success. I really wish this town was real because I would love to visit.
If you're looking for a new series to devour and love a sexy romance with realistic ups and downs, I highly recommend giving the Blue Moon series a try.
