The storyline intrigued me, and even though you knew the secret was going to blow sky-high... it HAD to... the budding romance of Nick and Delilah was sweet and reeled you in, made you forget. And then... boom- the 'oh shit' moment happens and then the angst begins, but thankfully- blessedly- it's not overdone nor is it drawn out way too long. It was a fun read, and welcomed when my Nook is usually full of overly dramatic angst. Overall, I'm calling the story cute, but in a pervy way. ;)
I am not a fan of books written in the first person but this book totally rocked it! The characters were well fleshed out and believable. I enjoyed the gentle banter between Ferris and Ezra along with the way they included Spencer in everything. There were so many reminders of Ezra and Ferris in Spencer's and Jesse's relationship that I just knew that they were going to be alright. The family dynamics all were resolved well. Sharks at the Jersey shore? I don't know but it added a bit of a show more punch to the story. Kudos for the great cover. show less
A new author and one I think still sorting out minor issues with writing. I really enjoy the story arc and plot points. There's some (at times a LOT) of family drama, coming out of the closet, hurt/comfort/hospital scenes, and really cute 14 year old kid also coming out. Our MCs are both full on sweet with their heads screwed on properly (mostly). I really enjoyed the relationship and family journey. Will definitely read this author again if the precis appeals :)

Narrated by Paul Bright - 2.5 show more stars. At times this is easy listening and at others, there's a bit too much high-pitch stuff happening. PB sounds like he's new to the business ~ its certainly the first time I've heard him. He puts a lot of effort into this narration but doesn't always nail our MCs' voices and his female voices definitely need work. I hope he can sort out these issues, because I could hear that he put his heart into this narration. show less
4.5 "Scrumptious" Stars!

ARC provided by author for an honest review!

"Oh it's what you do to me."

I could not get that Plain White T's song out of my head! The story seemed to bop along with the song for some reason!

"You, my love, are my weakness - my downfall, my Delilah."- Nick

Delilah Sampson is frumpy. She's not ugly or even unattractive, just the kind of girl that doesn't really get noticed. She's more concerned with being comfortable and practice as opposed to sexy and fashionable. After show more breaking up with her cheating boyfriend and leaving her old life behind, she begins a new job at Nick Santino's law firm as his assistant.

Nick Santino is a sexy workaholic lawyer who has a habit of sleeping with his secretaries but when he is unwilling to commit, he loses not only his bed partner but his employee too. Tired of his revolving door of assistants he hires Delilah because he feels no physical attraction to her and is delighted to find out that she is a kick ass assistant.

Now to introduce Club M! I loved the idea of this place! It is where people go to "hook up" with no strings. Everyone wears masks and communicate only through text messages. No speaking allowed, no sharing of personal information and no revealing of true identities. Strict anonymity. Delilah's friend convinces her to go to the club for a night of fun with no inhibitions. After a complete make over Delilah is transformed in to Club M's sexy LaLa. Nico immediately notices LaLa, LaLa immediately notices Nico. After flirty texting for a while, they start making good use of Nico's private VIP room. Welp, I'm sure you can guess who Nico really is...


Unsuspecting, Nico and LaLa enjoy a hot and heavy sexual relationship at the club on the weekends while clueless Nick and Delilah work long hours together during the week, each fantasizing about their club partners. That is until Delilah doesn't seem so frumpy to Nick anymore and the similarities between Delilah and his LaLa are hard to ignore.

Can Frumpy Girl tame the Club M Player?

"Not that I am screwing Delilah, but that’s all I have ever done – screwed, fucked, plowed. But tonight…tonight feels different. Something is different. About me. About LaLa. About us."-Nick

I loved the concept of this story! The chemistry between the two them was off the charts! Extremely hot! Like I said earlier, The Club M idea was awesome! I would love to read more about that place. I hope the series spends more time there!

Why 4.5 stars and not 5 stars?

I will admit the beginning was a little too slow for me and the writing seemed off but it got progressively better by about the 30% mark. At around 50% I couldn't put it down, making me really glad that I stuck with it! I also thought some of Nick's POV was a little obnoxious in the beginning but that also improved. The last chapter sent my heart soaring though! I love when I finish a book feeling like that!
