Women more often than not have had a lustful thought or two about an attractive older man. Men more than likely have fantasized about being with a younger woman. In most of society, if the two parties are of consensual age, this isn’t a problem. The lead characters in “Landslide” are the exception to the rule. Max and Kenzie are two people who have so many insurmountable obstacles that they should never be together. “Landslide” is the story of two people who are so physically drawn to each other that their hearts can’t help but get involved.

Kenzie has been drawn to Max for years. Max is her father’s best friend and a United States Senator. Once Kenzie turns eighteen, she is determined to find her way into the Senator’s bed. Max’s attraction to younger women sparks an idea with Kenzie and she offers herself as his thirty-fifth birthday present. One he gladly accepts. A single encounter wasn't enough for either of them and as months pass, they have what can be deemed as extremely erotic escapades. They both know they can’t have a conventional relationship, but it doesn't stop either of them from wanting one.

I had to take a break a few times while reading this story to get a drink and cool down. Cole creates such sensual sexcapades; one can’t help be get hot under the collar. The scenes flowed well back and forth between both Max and Kenzie's points of view. It was helpful to see the emotions of both characters as the story progressed into areas of relationships that neither had experienced before. There were a few moments when I thought these two didn't have a chance in hell of making it to the other side together. Cole was able to turn things around, giving the reader a love story as well as an erotic adventure.

If you are in the mood for a sensually explicit novel with a intricate plot and complex characters, this story should go directly to the top of your to be read list.
