OrangeReviewStarIan Cooper, a seemingly straight-laced accountant, is a regular customer at Emma Green's bookshop, Prologue. Although they have known each other since high school, Ian and Emma have been mere acquaintances over the years. It is not until Ian nervously approaches Emma with a business proposition that she realizes how little she knows about his lifestyle: he asks to rent the backroom of her bookshop to teach rope bondage classes. Money is tight, so with some hesitation Emma agrees. Things really begin to heat up when Ian's model comes down with the flu, and he asks Emma to fill in. What begins as a curiosity for Emma soon turns into very erotic feelings she never expected yet cannot deny.
VERDICT Winters's (Purely Professional) book is a rare find: a combination of heartwarming romance coupled with incredible sexual awakening and chemistry. Readers will cheer for Emma as she discovers not only her hidden desires but also her own attractiveness and self-worth as a plus-size woman. Ian, too, is irresistible, with his selfless nature and inner confidence. Fans of both romance and light erotica will eagerly devour every moment of this slow-burn love story.
