PRAISE FOR AUTHOR

Elaine Radley

AND HER BOOKS

FRIENDLY TEMPTATION

FRIENDLY TEMPTATION is a sexually charged dynamo of a story that burns hot and fast. All of the action takes place in one night filled with apprehension, humor, and passion, and the intensity Ms. Radley creates between Dominic and Katherine absolutely sizzles.

~Angie Just Read, The Romance Reviews

A very short, but amazingly complete and intense story! Highly erotic and very insightful.

~Margreet, Ripe For The Reader

With the amount of space she had to use for this short story, she did a wonderful job at giving us a chance to just relax and see true love blossom. The story was consistent and always moving toward the goal. She traded drama and suspense for humor, nerves and emotions and I loved that about this book.

With a guy like that, it was best to keep him at arm’s length. Friend material, okay, boyfriend or husband material, well, not unless she intended to keep heartache on a leash for the rest of her life.

Too late, her mind gibbered before she could put a halt to it.

Not too late. It was just one lapse. One. But holy moly it was good…

The moment she’d met him, the moment he’d walked into the gallery to check lighting for his work, she’d felt the pull. His magnetism threatened to yank what strength she had and knock her onto her back with her legs in the air. Unfortunately, it wasn’t long after their meeting that whispers of his reputation reached her ears. If a lady wanted a good time, no strings, he was her guy. And it seemed as if the ladies shifted by the week, if
