My Review: 4 Electrifying Stars

I was pleasantly surprised with Electrified. After reading the synopsis of Electrified, I was expecting a full blown erotica story. And while this book contained some panty melting scenes, sex wasn't the focus of the book. Electrified has a well thought out plot loaded with sexual tension and a hint of suspense. Throw in some well developed, yet damaged characters and you've got yourself one hell of a read.

The world knows her as Sienna Flowers. The hottest stripper in town, working in Vegas. But that's just a facade she uses to hide the broken and damaged woman. Running from a less that stellar past, Sienna has secured a wall around her heart. Her ultimate goal is to stay safe and that means no attachments or relationships. She very small but tight knit circle, including her business partner Asher. No one knows the full extent of Sienna's past but Asher knows the most and he will stop at nothing to keep her safe and protected. He is so loving and protective of her in a big brother way.

At work one night Sienna locks eyes with Carson Graham, ex-FBI agent and private investigator. Coming from a somewhat troubled past himself, Carson doesn't do feelings or relationships. His work requires him to travel a lot so he is more of a wham-bam-thank-you-maam type of guy. But the moment he locks eyes with Sienna, he begins to second guess his love em and leave em ways.

The sexual tension between the two was intense. And when they did hook up...it was explosive. Ladies get ready to swoon because Carson Graham is gonna rock your world!!! Both Carson and Sienna are swimming in unchartered waters with feelings they aren't familiar with and neither is quite sure how to handle them. Sienna wants to run to keep herself and everyone else safe, Carson wants to pursue a future.

Can these two people with damaged pasts have a happy ever after together with so many secrets between them? Well, you will just need to read to find out. ;)

Looking forward to book 2, which is Asher's story.
