When I started reading Plus One by Aleatha Romig, I thought the storyline sounded familiar with a previous book that I read titled Duncan by Jade Sinner and so I decided to scroll back to the beginning of Plus One to read the introduction and happened to discover that Aleatha Romig was indeed Jade Sinner.
In Plus One, Aleatha gives readers a full length story of Duncan. While I am used to the darker, gritty, and suspenseful side of Aleatha Romig, I did enjoy to see her fun, playful, and lighter side come out with this book.
Kimbra is in need of a plus one for her cousin’s wedding since her family has been constantly reminding her that she said she would bring a date. Originally, she put a plus one since she was in a relationship but now she is currently single. And so when Kimbra finds her boss in an uncompromising position, she blackmails him to be her plus one.
Duncan Willis is more than happy to be her plus one. In fact, he would want nothing more than to be her date and pretend to be in a relationship with her while he agrees to go to the wedding. Duncan has been wanting Kimbra for quite some time now since she has been the star of his fantasies.
His touch is sure and possessive as he brushes his firm lips over my knuckles. It’s such a small connection and yet it ignites tingles that radiate throughout my body. A kiss of my hand and my toes curl.”While Duncan and Kimbra pretend to be a couple for the weekend, Duncan also suggest that they should explore the sexual side of being in a relationship. Hence, lots and lots of sex. Sex that neither of them had ever experienced before. But what happens when a weekend of pretending must come to an end and they must return back to reality? Can Duncan and Kimbra pretend their feelings and attraction to one another? Or will Duncan show that he wants to be Kimbra’s forever plus one?
Plus One was a fun, playful and sexy read. I liked this new lighter side to Aleatha Romig as it was refreshing to see this side of Aleatha. While I enjoyed this book, I felt that there were some parts that were a bit repetitive for my taste and that the story could have been shorter but other than that I look forward to reading more books from this new playful, lighter side of Aleatha Romig.
