Pour some sugar and lovin’ to Nina Lane’s newest sticky and sweet contemporary romance, Sweet Escape. I have a sweet tooth and a sugar rush when it comes to the Stone siblings. And in this second installment, Nina Lane has perfected her recipe when it comes to these sweet and delectable romance. A pinch of sass, a teaspoon of drama, a tablespoon of laughter, a cup of sex, and a whole heaping of love. And oh yeah, a sprinkling of Evan Stone. Mix it all together and you got one sugary treat that was dangerously addicting!!!
“Oh, did he kiss her. His mouth moved with deliberate ease over hers, urging her lips apart so he could dip his tongue inside. He tasted like sweet, spicy peppermint, and his breath was cool against her lips. Hannah’s pleasure blossomed outward, filling her veins with heat.”If you read the first book, Sweet Dreams, then you were all introduced to Hannah Lockhart, the older sister of Polly and Evan Stone, the younger brother of Luke. And so in Sweet Escape, Hannah is taking over Wild Child Bakery while her sister is enrolled in a pastry course in Paris. Unlike her sister, Hannah has always been the wild child, who loves to travel. She is always on the go, never settling in one place that is until Polly asked her to watch and take over the bakery while she is away. Hence, Hannah for the first time in several years find herself staying put temporarily.
Evan Stone is a thirty one years old bachelor who has been coined as “Heartbreaker.” Well this heartbreaker ain’t breaking lots of heart per se but he makes it known to the ladies that relationships aren’t his thing especially since he has a defective heart. His illness has always been his armor when it comes to protecting his heart and disappointment. He doesn’t want his family seeing him as someone who needs special care because of his defective heart and so he tries to work really hard to show his family that he is strong, reliable, and capable of taking care of himself.
“Curious girl. A wanderlust photographer who found beauty in strange places other people wouldn’t think to look. What other secrets did she have? She was like a present wrapped in bright shiny paper that he couldn’t wait to tear open.”When Hannah was asked to help cater this bachelor auction, she suddenly finds herself accidentally bidding on Evan Stone, which in turn leads her to agreeing to going on several dates with him. Evan is easily smittened with Hannah. She intrigues him and ignites a desire and addiction that he craves. She is one treat that he would like to bite into.
As Hannah and Evan begins to get close, a friendship begins to form that soon leads to a sexual romantic affair. It was inevitable for these two as the chemistry and sexual tension was palpable from the start. And let’s just say these two knew how to get things sticky!!! But what happens when Hannah itch for wanderlust begins to set in? Will Evan give Hannah a reason to stay? And will Hannah discover that home might be in the arms of Evan Stone?
“His heart beat steady and strong against her ear, like a rhythmic knocking on a door. In response, her own heart softened, like it wanted to answer. She pressed her hand to her chest as if to stifle the urge.”Sweet Escape was a playful, fun, sexy, steamy, and sinfully addicting read that had a touch of raw emotions. This book had relatable characters who were raw, honest, and vulnerable. I loved Hannah as readers got to discover a heroine, who is just looking for love and a place to call home. And home happens to be with Evan Stone. So can a girl who blogs about the magic of love find her sweet escape and forever love in Evan? I guess the only way to find out is to give this hunky, sexy, dirty talking hero a lick!! Yes, so if you like your romance dirty, sexy, sweet, tarty, and sticky then Sweet Escape is the book for you. Go on and discover why Evan Stone has a sweet tooth for the only woman who has been able to unlocked his heart.
