As a fan of Joya Ryan, she kicks off my 2016 book calendar with one hot sexy read!!!!! Who knew roughing it in the outdoors could be so sinfully entertaining? In Ms. Ryan's second installment of the Search and Seduce Series, Joya introduces us to the great outdoors and how to rough it. Well more like how to get D.I.R.T.Y. in Tell Me You Want Me.

Michelle Ruby comes from a wealthy family and has never really experienced independence. The only jungle that Michelle knew how to rough it and survive was the concrete jungle of NYC and her survival essentials of her parent's money. So when she decides that she needs to take initiative of her life and gain independence from them, she packs up her bags and moves away to set up her own dreams of owning a boutique store. With no help from her parents, Michelle hopes to prove to them that she can survive on her own. Well the problem with that is that her boutique business is barely staying afloat so Michelle decides to take a survival course that will teach her how to be strong and independent. And most importantly she can survive on her own.

Well Michelle was in for a rude awakening when she realizes that she doesn't have what it takes to survive the great outdoors with her Jimmy Choos' boots and Marc Jacobs bag. But luckily for Michelle, Dex Young was there to help out the sex kitten. While trying to teach Michelle all the survival knowledge that she will need, Dex was also able to show the princess that being in the wild is about getting dirty. And dirty is what Dex Young showed her.
Rough. Dirty. Sexy. Steamy. Those four words can easily describe the palpable and tangible bond that was brewing between Michelle and Dex. These two made roughing it an adventure... a sexy dirty adventure that is. While Dex showed Michelle how to survive the wild, he also showed her what it takes to be independent and strong. While Michelle may be learning how to be strong, confident, and independent, Dex also learned that it takes a whole lot of strength and courage to admit LOVE.

Tell Me What You Want was a rugged adventure full of steam, love, and banter. I loved the chemistry of Michelle and Dex. Both characters were able to show character growth and learned that the real love survives the harshest of conditions and surviving that turmoil is what makes a relationship solid. As always, Joya Ryan writes a story filled with all the raw elements of love and emotions.
