When it comes to reading or writing, I have a serious weakness for second chances. They come in a million different packages and start from a place of very deep feelings—regret, betrayal, heartbreak. There’s a lot at stake from the moment the characters are back in each other’s midst, and I love that instant crackle of tension. Will they risk it all and let this person back into their life? So much internal struggle! So much resisting and longing! I’m in from page one. Here are just a few of my favorites:

eBook Review: Love Plus One by Karen Booth
A guest review by Lily Harlem.
Love Plus One is certainly a novel that delivers one scorching hot fantasy. How many women would love their husband’s sexy best friend to turn up, offer his gorgeous body and his sinful talents and it’s all okay, no strings, no recriminations? What’s more, her husband wants it, is desperate for it and has organized it?
Phew, I really liked the premise here and as with the other books in the Spice Rack series it’s those sexy little jars with their saucy suggestions that gets the ball rolling. And it does need some support this kind of storyline, it’s certainly not every husband’s fantasy to see his wife getting hot and bothered with another guy. But Ms Booth does a fantastic job of covering all the emotional bases the characters need explained to make this really pull together. There is rational behind their decisions, it doesn’t go too far, it’s just right, the balance perfect to work, no, not only work, be damn explosive!
I really like the female lead, Olivia, she’s sexy and apprehensive which makes her very real. Her and Brian’s devotion to each other is another thing that makes this story bind so well. They just are so sweet – in a totally lusty kind of way that is.
When it ended I was hoping for more chapters or a sequel because like the other Spice Rack couples I was itching to see what jar they’d open next and what ‘task’ they’d be set. Because all the tasks are naughty, fun and they’re all perfectly kinky!

The First Kiss by Karen Booth
When editing a manuscript the other day, I realized how much I love to write the first kiss. Everything is new and exciting, the person initiating simply reaches the point where they can’t stand it anymore. It doesn’t matter if you’re cooking dinner or doing laundry or standing in line for the movies. When the attraction is undeniable, it’s going to happen, regardless of the location or circumstances. For a writer, it’s a land of opportunity—put two characters together, let things simmer, see who breaks down first. So fun.
