So I’ve been in a bit of a book slump lately, and I just can’t seem to commit. I have many books for review that I just KNOW I’ll love, but I’m a moody reader, and lately with sleep deprivation from the baby, and barely time to shower, my time for reading is at a premium. Basically, if I’m going to read something right now, I need to know that I’ll love it, or it has to be short enough to read during naptime.

When I was offered Red Hot Chance for review, I was pretty excited! It takes place in my hometown (Las Vegas), and it has a fun premise.

Basically, Woody is back in Vegas for his best bud’s wedding, and his main goal is to get in and get out of Vegas as quickly as possible. He left for a reason, and there’s no love lost for the town.

Daphne is still mourning her fiance’s death from 6 years ago, so the idea of a blind date is thoroughly unappealing, but as a favor to a friend she agrees.

When Daphne and Woody meet at the engagement party, neither realizes that they are each other’s blind date for the next night. Daphne is shocked at how her body is reawakening to Woody’s kisses. And she’s kind of freaked. When he is called inside to give a toast, Daphne bolts.

But you better believe he isn’t going to let her go after that smokin’ kiss.

I liked this. It was short, spicy, and had some depth (in short erotic romances you don’t always get the depth). With a ginger hero, awoman learning to live again, and even a sassy little cat, this was just what I needed.
