In Melissa
Schroeder’s, A Little Harmless Sex,
best friends become lovers and find out that a little harmless sex is
more than
they ever bargained for.
Max
Chandler
has been best friends with Anna Dewinter for years. Anna's support
through many
affairs, breakups and their talks about anything has helped him through
some
rough times. Max, who is about to be married, breaks off his engagement
but is
fine with it. Max goes to the one person he can always count on in his
time of
need, Anna.
Anna
Dewinter, having just broken up with her current boyfriend, in a long
line of
boyfriends she never dates long enough to get serious with, finds
herself at a
crossroads. No matter how much she tries to suppress her longings, no
man can
measure up to the one man she wants and cannot have, her best friend
Max. She
can talk with Max about anything, except the attraction she feels for
him. Her
fear of how Max will react and of losing his friendship keeps her
silent until
Max's arrival at her house to celebrate the end of his relationship,
leads to
so much more that she could have ever expected. Friends become lovers
and a little harmless sex takes on a whole
new meaning. What will happen in the light of day for these two friends
turned
lovers?
A Little Harmless Sex is so much more that the title
leaves you to believe. The characters, Max and Anna are vibrant,
engaging and thoroughly captivating. Max is tender, yet a sensual
dream and Anna is spunky, yet vulnerable. They are a perfect
combination. Max and Anna's chemistry brings the reader into each
scene as you live their angst of keeping that line between them as
friends.
However, when that line is not
only crossed but also shattered under a blaze of passion that
scorches the pages, you are overtaken then swept away under a tidal
wave. A wave of not only sex, but also the emotion that is brought
along with it when these two friends take their relationship to a
whole new level.
I highly recommend
Melissa Schroeder‘s, A Little Harmless
Sex for readers who love hot emotional sex and a story of
friends
falling in love.
