Just beening honest here but this book just didn't do anything for me so I had to give it a 3 sorry. Maybe the second book will be better. Just wasn't feeling it :)

I'm not sure where to even begin with this book. I have read a handful of books written by women in a male's POV. This is the first one that I really didn't think worked that well. It was a great story line, but many times throughout the book I found myself thinking "I don't think a guy would actually say that or think that way". The series title (Touch of Tantra) was just that in this book. Just a touch. I am clueless to anything about Tantra, but it seemed to just barely scratch the surface with it. I felt like the author could have dived a little deeper with the story line and characters. There is a second book coming so hopefully that one will be more in depth.

I loved this book it was so well written, and the story was so good. I loved that it was told from the male POV very different from other books. Can't wait for the second book I look forward to it.

I went a little crazy looking for this book. I saw it on blogs during the tour for it, I swore I put it on my TBR list. It wasn’t there. I posted on Facebook, on my blog, asked everyone in groups I knew. I could not find this. Turned out, I was mixing this cover up with Cameron Jace’s books because I thought I was looking for a fairy tale with a cover that had a woman laying down, bluish toned, and an apple. Seriously, that cover looks like a fairy tale. Not a fairy tale at all.

I started this as soon as I bought it, and I honestly wasn’t sure what I thought of it. The main character, Adam, was a jerk to begin with. I couldn’t see how I was going to like him at all. I liked Kathryn though. She had the attitude I wish I could pull off – smart, sexy, confident, able to put a cocky full of himself man in his place.

Because I didn’t like Adam at first, I spent the first half of the book not really caring where this was going, I kept reading though because I had worked so hard to find out which book it was I actually wanted to read. I like the men in my books to be alpha males, domineering, protective, etc. When this book started, he was just a plain a$$, pardon my language, but he truly was a donkey. Once he started working through his issues, he became more likable.

Overall it was ok. The tantra parts were cool because though I have heard of it, I don’t really have a lot of knowledge about tantra. Those scenes were hot.

The drama surrounding Adam, was a little predictable. I knew what Simon’s problem was before he knew. I didn’t know see one thing coming that happened at the end, that was a point in the book’s favor.

There were maybe 3 or 4 grammatical/spelling errors that I noticed. (I’m not the world’s smartest person when it comes to punctuation, but the grammatical/spelling things I catch.) There weren’t so many that it distracted from the story or made me have trouble reading. It was just a few spots where I noticed, thought did I just read that? Went back, read it again, yep. That should be this.

I do understand why some people would give this 5 stars. If you like the character Adam, find his character sexy, and if you like Catherine, the hot tantra scenes, it all would add up to a 5 star review. Adam to me was just such a jerk from the start, I wouldn’t have given him the time of day to see where the relationship would progress. Look what I would have missed out on though.

Overall, I liked it. Once I got to the half way point, I finally got into it. Would I pick up the sequel? Yes. Now that Adam is in a place where I like him a bit more, I want to see where there story takes them. That is what is pushing this review up from 3 stars to 4 for me, wanting the sequel.

If I could rate a book just on it’s cover, I would give this one 5 stars. Gorgeous. I think that is one of my favorite covers to date. It’s beautiful. That cover is what had me on a 3 day hunt for this book.

I read this as a part of the Red Hot Beginnings Box Set
2.5 stars - but I rounded up to 3
This wasn't bad it just didn't keep my interest. There just wasn't much momentum to the story. The relationship between the two main characters was thin and each time I thought that there was excitement coming it just fell flat.
