Cake by Lauren Dane

3.0

Wren is an art student and works part time for a delivery service. For over a year she has delivered packages to Gregori Ivanov on a weekly basis. Gregori is a moody but passionate artist who enjoys his bad reputation. These two form a friendship through shared interests and chemistry. At one of Gregori's gallery shows, their friendship turns into more when he kisses her. One kiss is all it took to spark a wildfire of lust and sex that starts to burn out of control. When Gregori realizes he has developed deeper feelings for Wren, he freaks, thank's to a disastrous marriage and a crazy ex-wife. Can Gregori get over his past and open himself up to a new opportunity to be happy with a woman? This was my first Lauren Dane book and overall i did enjoy it even though I'm not a huge fan of the length of novellas. I did enjoy both of the characters. Wren was sweet and easy to like while Gregori being a bit more temperamental still got caught on my "hottie" meter. There is plenty of hot sex when these two give in to their desires. I would have enjoyed seeing a bit more of the couple's lives at the end. This was a super quick, fun and easy read.
