Flirting with Danger

As good as I remembered...

I loved Flirting With Danger so much that I've bought the second book in the series...even with a dodgy dollar. Unfortunately, the Australian dollar is not doing so well at the moment and for the first time in ages, I'm actually having to seriously consider my book purchases. THE SHOCK!! THE HORROR!!

Within minutes of starting this audio, I was wearing a big goofy grin on my face. Samantha is a cracker of a heroine and one of the only criminals that I love despite her career. Richard is one of my very favourite heroes. I love that Suzanne Enoch shared at the end of the story that she was picturing a mix of Hugh Jackman and a few others (can't remember who) when she created Richard. It was NOT a burden picturing Mr Jackman as Richard. ;-)

I read Flirting With Danger yonky donks ago and loved it back then. It's not too often that I re-read a book from my past and love it to the same extent. In this case, the narration did it justice and the story was still engaging. Yes, some things had dated but not to the extent where I was distracted by it.

The storyline was interesting, the characters came to life for me and the sexy times showed the connection that Sam and Richard shared. Richard has been married previously and Samantha has never found a man to take a risk on. Richard's ex was a cheating cow and it takes him a while to trust Sam. I loved Richard's dedication to protecting Samantha and trying to lure her away from the dark side. Samantha pushes Richard's boundaries and tests his overbearing and controlling nature. She is not one to be told what to do and each time she is, her first instinct is to cut and run. With time, the two realise that what they have together is special. Both must adjust and make sacrifices for their relationship to work.

Flirting With Danger was a great audio to listen to. I'm so excited that I've found this series and I'm going to be saving my dollars to buy more of the Samantha Jellicoe series. I can't wait for the next instalment to "see" Samantha act like the good girl and Lord Richard Addison act all lordy.
