Review:

The Sapphire Affair was absolutely flirty, hot fun! I absolutely enjoyed reading it. It has a little bit of everything for everyone. A little bit of intrigue, a little bit of heat, a little bit of adventure, and a lot of reading pleasure. Jake was my favorite type of book boyfriend: a dirty talking alpha with a sweet side. He’s been hired to track down some missing money. Steph is having her mom’s back by playing Nancy Drew. He’s got the skills; she’s got the inside track.

The banter between the characters had me grinning and the sexual tension between the two was off-the-charts hot. There’s a slow buildup and oh…my…it is delicious. It was like a decadent chocolate cake—you know it’s going to taste good but it’s oh so bad for your diet. But you can’t help taking small tastes over and over again until you finally cave and eat a whole piece. Guessing about when or if they’ll cave was as much fun as trying to figure out the mystery.

The mystery kept me guessing but I wasn’t on the edge of my seat. I am excited to learn exactly what’s going on. I have my ideas so I want to see if any of them pan out. And that’s all part of the fun. Be forewarned though, there is a cliffhanger in this one. But it is so worth it, between the tension and the banter it’s so entertaining. I’ll definitely be adding this to my “to be re-read” list and I can’t wait for the next book to come out. -Peace and Love, Buxom J

Excerpt:

She cut him off, slicing her hand through the air. “No. No. No. And more no. Did you not hear me? The sex-toy mistress practically clung to me, and then I was very nearly subjected to a discussion of Eli’s predilections.” She dragged a hand through her hair in frustration. “I did not find the bowlful of diamonds, so we’ll have to go back again, and my champagne buzz is nearly gone, so I could really use a Cherry Popsicle.”

“Is that code for a ruby-encrusted—”

“No. There’s a bar along the beach that serves frozen cherry margaritas and they’re called Cherry Popsicles because they’re made around a frozen block of cherry ice, and when you get to the end you can suck on the Popsicle in the middle of it, and if I do not get one stat, my brain will be permanently branded with images of my stepfather’s fiancée holding that thing,” she said, gesturing wildly at the black pouch.

“Fair enough. To the Cherry Popsicle purveyor we go. Do they have ice cream? I do love a good ice-cream cone.”

“I’ll find you ice cream, Jake.”

“By the way, what’s a bandage dress? Is that like a dress made out of Band Aids?”

She heaved a sigh. “No. It’s a style. It’s very clingy and tight, but the fabric is sturdy,” she said, stopping to point to her breasts as if to show how a bandage dress would hug her curves.

He cleared his throat, and when she looked up, she saw him looking down.

At her boobs.

“I forgot. You’re a boob starer. Didn’t mean to tempt you, since you’re trying to stay on the wagon.”

He held up his hands in mock surrender. “One, you say that like it’s a bad thing. Two, you have fantastic breasts. And three, do you blame me? You were waving your hands in front of them. I had no choice but to stare at them.”
