“Easton was a woman I’d wanted in my bed, but Ms. Bradbury was off limits. The lines were there, clear as day, and not to be breached.”
Misconduct is f*cking amazing!!!! Pardon my language, but this is why I love Penelope Douglas. She doesn't just give you cookie cutter romance but she DELIVERS only the BEST to her readers. And in her new erotic romance, Misconduct, Ms. Douglas reminded me once again why I love reading her books. With her gorgeous prose, raw characters, and hot sensual sexy storyline she holds her readers HOSTAGE. Yes, this book consumed me. The outside world didn't exist for 3 hours as I was lost in the world of Easton Bradbury and Tyler Marek.
“I liked his dominance, and I think he liked mine.”
One of my ultimate favorite trope is forbidden romance. And let me just say, Penelope didn't disappoint me at all. In fact, she had me craving and begging for more. Seriously, once I was done reading the book, I wanted to reread the book right away. That's how much I absolutely LOVED this book. I LOVED IT ALL. From the raw characters, the hot erotic sex, the playful sensual banter, the emotions, and the unraveling of secrets and truths. I really don't want to say much about this book because I don't want to spoil anything for the readers because trust me you will want to read, experience and savor this book. But what I can tell you is yes this book has a forbidden undertone element since it deals with a teacher and parent having a relationship. But other than that, I personally didn't care that she was a teacher and he was a parent. Maybe I didn't really care because I absolutely loved the way Ms. Douglas had written these characters.
“I've been with enough women to know when it's right and when it's wrong.... and when I have you in my hands, it feels more right than anything.”
Smoldering. Sexy. Dirty. Rough. Tangible. Palpable. Electric. These are a few words to describe the intense connection of Easton and Tyler. It usually takes me awhile to love a hero and heroine, but instantly I was consumed and captivated by the strong electric charge these two had. The way Ms. Douglass had written their relationship was sinfully sexy and addicting!!!
Penelope Douglas is one of those gifted authors who continually knows how to spellbind her readers with her beautiful prose and raw characters. And Misconduct truly highlighted that. It was bold, risky, passionate, intense, sexy, and emotionally consuming. This book begs you to look outside the lines of right and wrong and who are we to judge when it comes to love. Though this book may have that forbidden lustful sexy aspect, this book was so much more. It had many layers and undertones as sacrifices, families, truths, secrets, love, and raw emotions were coursing throughout the book. Like any artwork, Penelope Douglas paints a bold and sexy literary creation that will leave a lasting and memorable impression. It is often said to let the work speak for itself and so Ms. Douglas will you hostage as you are immersed in the intense and all-consuming love of Easton and Tyler.
