Undone By Her Tender Touch by Maya Banks

Review of Undone By Her Tender Touch by Maya Banks

5 out of 5 smirks

Synopsis: "Just one night? Yeah, right. Pippa Laingley should have known better. When an unplanned evening of passion with Cameron Hollingsworth results in unplanned pregnancy, she’s at a crossroads. She knew going in that the enigmatic entrepreneur had built a fortress around his feelings. What she’s just discovered is that he’s loved and lost before—wife and child. Tragically. Now Cam stands to lose it all again. If he lets Pippa get too close. If he pushes her away with loveless arrangements of financial support. Either way, he’s doomed…unless he can let himself love again."

There are very few authors who I find consistency with (as in I love all their books I read), Maya Banks is one of the few. Undone By Her Tender Touch concludes a miniseries about friends who become family and grow with one another by their side.  In this installment, we as readers finally get Cam's story, which I have been personally waiting for since this miniseries started.  I love that Maya Banks still continues to surprise us with Cam's past for instance and with the leading lady Pippa (Ashley's BFF).  Cam has a darkness to him that would push most people away and quite the opposite is Pippa who is like the sun itself.  I love how different both Cam and Pippa are, but I also love that they have the same level of passion for one another.  This book leads Cam from darkness and makes Pippa/readers believe in tailored happily ever afters.  Like all the books in this miniseries this one is a must read and a must own. 5 smirks.

Tempted by Her Innocent Kiss by Maya Banks

Review of Tempted by Her Innocent Kiss by Maya Banks

5 out of 5 smirks

Synopsis: "No Man’s Bargaining Chip

Devon Carter was her first; now newly wed Ashley wants their passion to last. But her dreams of true love are crushed by the discovery that their marriage is another of Daddy’s business deals. Her strategy: act the part of perfect wife and make Devon love her.

But Devon misses the bubbly, no-holdsbarred woman his wife used to be. Who is this Ashley with the steely demeanor of a society wife? And will he find a way to rekindle the fi re in her eyes…especially now that she’s pregnant"

Tempted by Her Innocent Kiss by Maya Banks is a story that will grab readers by the fronts of their shirts into a world that is all about the two main characters Ash and Devon.  I know when I read a truly amazing book because my emotions are solely connected to the main characters emotions.  Ash and Devon are two characters who are so different and so right for each other it will be near impossible for readers not to fall in love with them.  Maya Banks continues to prove over and over again how amazingly gifted she is in writing romance.  If you have never read anything by Maya Banks I suggest you change that because after reading ten of her books, I am a true believer that she can bring out any emotion in her readers she wants.  I give Tempted by Her Innocent Kiss by Maya Banks 5 smirks because the characters are fun, interesting, complex and will leave readers feeling like they were a part of something bigger than themselves.
