PLAYING WITH DESIRE by REESE RYAN

Book Blurb:

Summer Loving 

Next in line as CEO of his family’s international luxury-resort empire, Liam Westbrook didn’t make his way to the top playing it safe. So when the fast-living British bachelor spies an exotic beauty under a smoldering North Carolina moon, he makes a scandalous proposal. The night culminates in an all-consuming passion that leaves them both burning for more. Liam knows he can’t just walk away. But after a devastating past betrayal, can he trust where his heart is leading him? 

Maya Alvarez’s two young daughters are her entire world. But when she ends up alone—on her birthday—the divorced single mother does something totally out of character. She accepts an invitation that leads to a hot summer fling with a seductive stranger who makes her feel bold and desirable again. When Maya must return to the real world, will Liam and their pleasure-fueled fantasy end up as only an affair to remember?

Review:

What can I say other than I loved it. This is one of those reads where the hero has you rooting for him from the beginning because you see that even though he tries to hide it, he has a good heart. Liam’s been hurt and has a contentious relationship with his family. You just know that the love of a good woman will heal him.

Maya, although a little insecure, steps up to the plate beautifully. She is brave in her own right and a mama bear when it comes to her girls. Liam helps her understand that it’s ok to be a woman and a mother. That the two can co-exist.

A few scenes had me grabbing the Kleenex so be prepared for a few misty eyes. On to book 2.
