Sigh.....Sigh........Sigh

Okay so we are all, ALL, guilty of it at some point. Objectify the models on book covers, people on the street, photos on Facebook . or Instagram. We all do it. Wrapped up in the fantasy our minds create for this particular dream boat.

You can kid yourself, but you can't lie to me. Personally, I think this story just fuels the fire of want and desire.

Abby the author vs. "Boston" the model

Who will win in the verbal, sensual, teasing smack down? Who will get the other strumming with desire? Which one will rule the bedroom?

I read a book earlier this year that focused on an author love story. It made me hopeful. But this book, holy Hell! It's sinfully steamy, teases your body, and leaves you breathless with unfulfilled longing. Oh yeah, and the chemistry, yikes....

Did you ever wonder about authors and cover models? I didn't before but now I can't stop myself. As bad as it is, we all have a favorite, and now imagining that model getting frisky with the author, acting out the scenes, well that adds a whole new level of hot!

My hormones were raging and I can definitely say, I would have caved like a house of cards if Boston even looked my way. So live your fantasy out with the hot cover model and pretend to be the author in this book. Both have moves you didn't see coming...

oh and I forgot to mention...squee! The cover of this book, yeah drool worthy. I do wish that there would be a sneak peek of the cover from the book though....maybe a calendar of the shots they talk about...would probably sell the book for ten times the price!

Holy smoking Kindle Batman! Boston was deliciously dirty. The chemistry between Parker “Boston” Minelli and Abby is outrageous. The way that they teased and taunted each other, I could almost feel the sexual tension seeping out of the edges of my eReader. It was steamy, yummy and just what the doctor order to help me relax after a stressful week. But before you think it’s all fun and games, there are some definite feels here. Alexis Alvarez tackles some typical relationship issues with aplomb.

Boston and Abby are collaborating on a new idea for a novel, pairing his photographs with his words to create a unique product they are sure will blow readers’ minds. As they work together and get to know each other, their attraction grows but their differences also become glaringly apparent. Their insecurities are completely relatable. It makes their relationship issues seem real. This didn’t feel like one of those novels where you’re thinking “ugh they just need to #@$^ing talk to each other, this conflict is stupid.” While they did need to just talk to each other, I could definitely relate to why they didn’t. I could put myself in Abby’s shoes easily (and I would…I’d happily take a Boston any day, just don’t tell my husband).

This is one I’ll definitely be recommending to my friends. I think there’s a new book boyfriend in the mix people. One-click Boston today and introduce yourself to your newest obsession.

Boston by Alexis Alvarez is a contemporary romance that's got sweet, sexy, angst, emotions in a well written and balanced full length novel.

I really enjoyed this story for its humour, the depth and variety of characters and events and its originality.

It was a lot of fun but I did find myself frustrated with Abby more then once and wanted to her to just get over her hang ups.

I loved the idea of their jobs, their project and how they were going to make it work. It intrigued me all the way to the end.
I love Alexis's writing and can't wait to read more.

I absolutely adored this book. From
Beginning to end I was fascinated by the relationship between Abby and Boston and wondering if this had ever happened between authors and models/photographers. It would be great if it had..

Anyway...

The chemistry and tension between Abby and Boston throughout this book sizzled with electricity and when they finally came together...holy shit it was HOT!!!! It was like a fire had engulfed my body.

I loved the story and the characters, and although this was my first book from Alexis, I can definitely say it won't be my last.

Her writing was beautiful as well as poetic and everything just drew me in.

I can't wait to see what else this author has to offer.
