Ella Frank...that name alone is an instant MUST click for me. When I found out Ms. Frank is going to be co-authoring a book with new author, Brooke Blaine, lets just say that I was so ready to get my hands on this book. Like the title I was desperate and I knew this book was going to be one hot sexy dirty read and these two authors did not disappoint their fans.

First and foremost, if you are expecting a typical romance then I’m sorry to say this book does not have it yet. I don’t know even how to describe this book because this book is unlike any other stories that I have read so far. What makes it different is the hero of the book. And as for the heroine, she’s not your typical wallflower who will be pushed around but instead she is strong, independent and fierce. With two different character personalities, Ms. Frank and Ms. Blaine, will have you addicted and wanting more from these characters.
Addiction: Sex
Patient: Evan James
A Desperate Man revolves on Evan James, who was once successful in the business world but suddenly hit rock bottom. As in, Evan is unemployed, no money and then to top it off he has a major sex addiction. That’s right, he’s a bonafide sex addict. He craves. needs, and wants it. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it, Evan’s addiction consumes his daily life. He is a man lost to his addiction that has monopolized his time and affected his work and life.
So when Evan finally lands a job, the woman whom he had a one night stand happens to be his boss. That one night was where they basically fucked each other’s brains out with endless amounts of orgasms. She was the one woman whom he fantasized when he was masturbating. Now temptation is staring him straight in the eyes and all he can imagine is Reagan Spencer. This forbidden temptation is haunting and effecting his work because he can’t seem to function. He wants and needs Reagan to fulfill his sexual need but she’s his boss. So what is Evan to do?

I must applaud Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine because they have me desperate for the next installment. Of course, they had to end the book in one sexy cliffhanger. So if you are looking for a book that is quite different than your normal romance, then I highly suggest you read A Desperate Man.
