About this ebook

Four weeks. No strings. One hot mess.

Good-girl Erica Teague is out on bail, charged with a crime her ex-lover committed. A lifetime of sticking to the rules has left her broke, burned, and facing a trial and certain conviction, thanks to the evidence planted by her trust-funder ex. Desperate to experience one wild night of sizzling sex before her freedom is torn away from her, Erica heads to a notorious night club in search of a one-night stand -- where a case of mistaken identity lands her in the arms of a hot Scot with a secret past.

The passion igniting between them is explosive, but Lachlan MacTaggart wants nothing to do with relationships or commitment. When he offers Erica one month of sex and companionship with no strings, she can't resist succumbing to her electric lust for the Scotsman. Soon, though, Erica's ex begins harassing her and Lachlan's haunted past catches up with him. When their hot fling gets personal, the last thing either of them wanted may become the one thing that frees their imprisoned hearts.

Ratings and reviews

I didn't expect this book to contain as many bedrooms scenes as it did, and although tastefully done with humour, I found that there was a little too much for my personal liking. However, from a romantic standpoint, the attraction between Lachlan and Erica built from the opening chapter. They made a pact and in doing so, shot themselves in the foot as things would have been so much easier if they had just been honest with one another from the beginning avoiding all sorts of assumptions and misunderstandings. However, it did add to the story and introduced a element of mystery as they both studiously avoided personal subjects. Having been taken for a ride by someone we trusted, I felt Erica's hurt and impotence at the situation she found herself in, with no money to hire the people who could investigate on her behalf but at the same time facing a deluge of incrimination for a crime she didn't commit. Lachlan on the other hand, has had his share of betrayal and whilst trying to protect his heart, he hurts Erica's. I enjoyed both of the main characters and Erica's parents were full of mischief and fun. I especially enjoyed the closing chapter of the book and the romantic setting. I received a copy of this book as a gift and this is my honest and voluntary review.

This is the first time I have read one of her books. But I couldn't resist because I love books with Scottish and Highlander men. This one was everything I hoped it would be. It made you laugh and it made you wish you were that lucky gal. I love the way he is so tender, scared, and it's nice to read a book where the man seems truely human and not all macho and perfect. Looking forward to more of these books. Melody
