A Window To Love by Fifi Flowers, is her first book and it was a wonderful story filled with love, sadness, passion, and sex, and all kinds of twists and turns in the plot to make you think the story is headed one way only to have a complete change in direction!

Evan Duke is the top male model in the world, and all women want a taste of him, and are willing to do anything for it. Evan is handsome, young and intelligent. Evan has a wonderful family which includes his mom, dad and 2 sisters. Even though they are not in the book that often they are still described well, because later in the book you will see the roles they play in Evan's life. Evan basically is a happy man, but he lacks the one thing other people take for granted-someone to call his own. In the past he only had one serious relationship that just was not meant to be, so he basically will just take someone out for a nice meal, and then after they have sex, that is it for him, he gets up quietly and leaves in the middle of the night; no attachments for him!

Melissa Bennete is a beautiful young woman, but a very sad woman. Years ago when she was getting ready to go to the university to finish her education, on the day after Christmas, her parents were killed in a plane crash, thus eradicating any family she had. In the past, from the time she was a little girl, every Christmas with her parents was a big deal, they always spent the holidays together, even when she grew up, and part of the tradition was looking at all the holiday windows of the shops in Manhattan, looking at all the beautiful Christmas goods, decorations, trees and baubles, just all done up into unbelievable beauty celebrating the joy of Christmas, and then spending the night in a beautiful hotel overlooking Central Park. They also spend a wonderful day with old friends every year and have an annual dinner with the family, and the two girls are friends to Melissa! That family winds up being very important! Now it is 7 years later, and she is at yet another annual Christmas party given by the company she works for. After her parents' death she quit going to see the windows, as her mind is haunted by good memories, but sad memories. The windows, though lovely, bring her to a sad time, so she avoids them.

Melissa is an heiress, and she does everything she can to stay out of the press. She works at a prestigious art company that has an annual party, and tonight is no exception, and she is required to at least make a showing, and she does go, like every year, alone, and dateless. One year she had started going out with a man in the company she works for and they decided to get married-Melissa thought at least she would not be alone, and even though she did not love him she would have company. Unfortunately at work she overheard him telling all the men, that at least with her money he could join a country club and do this and that , so she broke it off with him, and when word got around, her boss transferred him to Paris, to get him away from Melissa, and she remained in New York.

The story opens up in Manhattan, and she is at the annual Christmas Party for her company seven years after her parent's demise. When the time nears midnight, she decides to leave, and go home to her beautiful but lonely penthouse. Unknown to her, Evan has been watching her all night long, and when he sees her leave the party and start walking away, rather than getting into a cab, he follows her. Melissa's company also has all the male models' contracts and though Evan has said nothing to her, he has noticed her, working on story boards while they are dong photo shoots. One morning Melissa accidentally brushes up against Evan, which causes Evan to get an electrical- like jolt, and he knows he has felt her before, but does not remember when or where.

Evan follows Melissa, and stands back observing her, and for some reason Melissa has decided to take a walk and go look at all the decorations in the shop windows! When she reaches the last one, she is entranced by all the beautiful blue reflections, the window is stunning but what captures her interest is the deep blue chair with a portrait of a gorgeous man sitting in it! She starts drooling and whispers to herself "Oh, j'adore...what I would love to do with you!" Then she hears a husky male voice say to her "Perhaps I can be of some assistance." Read how this story goes from Manhattan, New York, to Santa Monica, Ca., to Paris!

This starts off a wonderful and beautiful affair of the heart! You have to read this book to answer some very important questions!

1 Will Evan and Melissa have an affair of the heart, or will it turn into something else?
2 Will Melissa let Evan dictate what he wants her to do, and will she do it?
3 How does Melissa know Evan, and he her from the past?
4 What happens when a bitter ex in Melissa's life tries to kidnap her?
5 How do Evan's parents and siblings know Melissa, and Evan did not from the past?
6 Will there be a happily ever after?
7 What does a Window to Love really stand for?

I gave this book 5***** stars and I am really impressed by the fact that this is the author, Fifi Flower's first book! Thanks you Fifi for writing such a beautiful book, that J'adore!

**JOSIE'S REVIEW**

*4.5 Stars*


This book starts in New York City during the Christmas Season, I love how it describes, the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center and the Department Store window decorations, it sets the scene for a romantic and magically romance. While looking at the decorations in the department store windows, Melissa lays eyes of Evan Duke the model in a photograph his taunt body, full lips and wide shoulders made her body tingle. Unbeknownst to her she says “Oh j’adore what I would love to so with you” out loud and in response she hears “Perhaps I can be of some assistance.” And the relationship commences one hot and steamy relationship.

Evan is to die for, I love his approach to her, he is up front and a take charge kind of guy, and he knows what he wants.

“What exactly did you have in mind you to do with me? You have my full attention." ”Well now that we established that there isn’t a jealous boyfriend or husband at home for you, you can take me home with you and show me what you would love to do with me.”

Melissa, is alone she lost her parents in a plane crash and she does not want to be alone in New York City for the Christmas Holiday, she is shy, lonely and sad. Evan and Melissa decide to come to her home after their meeting. Evan does not waste the opportunity once they are alone, I will say again, Evan he taking what he wants and this moment he wants Melissa. You can literally hear the possessiveness and dominance when he speaks to Melissa. Evan is so attentive, he feeds Melissa, cooks for and gives her orgasms (yep sign me up).

“Let me fix something for us. We will need the nourishment to fuel us.” “Stay put. Just tell me where everything is. I want you on display for me.”

What is normally a one night stand for Evan, becomes something is not used to, he wants more but he cannot understand what is it about Melissa that he wants more the next day. H wants her to become obsessed by him; he wants her to beg him not to leave because he does not want to be without her. Lord what Evan can do with a banana, I developed a new fondness of bananas (just saying).

“You’re so wet and tight. I love how you feel, ma Cherie.”

“You are mine, bebe. I don’t want anyone touching you or even thinking about touching you.”


There are times in the book where I cried, I felt for Melissa’s loss and how she did not feel worthy of Evan. It is obvious that these two share a special connection with one another but neither can explain their need for each other. Evan had no doubts about wanting Melissa with him all the time either. When a miscommunication happens, he wastes no time he getting to the woman that haunts his every thoughts.

“I need to find her now, Jane. I have to find my bebe. I need to take her in my arms. She has to know how I feel about her. I have to tell her how I feel about her.”

“Babe, you are the one that has confused me. I never thought that I could feel this way about someone. I hate being without you. When I’m not with you, I think about you all the time.” “I will not share you with anyone because the thought of anyone touching you, let alone f**cking you, drives me insane.”


Evan is not the only one that is has a dirty little mouth, shy Melissa comes out of her shell with the help of Evan and she too lets Evan know how she feels.

“I miss you hard c**k too.” Actually you could f**k me right now. Pretty pleeeese, monsieur””Mmmm I love you in me Evan. F**k me…..f**k me harder.” ”Are you mine?” ”I would like to wake up with you every morning.”

This books is not just about sex, there is more to this story then that, this is a must read, because for me I was glad I got an opportunity to read this. I can go on and on and add all of my highlighted quotes but then I would have given you their story and I cannot do that, you are going to have to trust this review and read it. I normally do not like a book that has that instant connection but with this story, when all comes out I really loved how Fifi Flowers wrote this plot, I did not expect that and I ended up in love with this book and its characters.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Melissa Camille Bennette is half French, half mystery and works in the art department of McDimel-Sandersa Advertising Firm. Melissa attends their annual holiday party in the grand ballroom of the Peninsula Hotel. Watching all the lovers and friends dancing about giddily reminds her she has no one. So needless to say she is ready to leave but not ready to go home to her lonely empty apartment. The only thing she was looking forward to was seeing one of the gorgeous supermodels that works with her firm Evan Duke. But he must be at a VIP table because he is no where to be seen.

She decides to leave the party and carry on the family tradition of going to look through the beautiful decorated department store windows around New York City. By herself she starts walking uptown towards Central Park hoping that the city’s holiday spirit will take away some of her sadness. Although it is the most exciting experience of the holidays for her it is bittersweet. She has spent seven years now without her parents but still feels so alone this time of year. As she walks past the beautiful windows remembering everything that her family used to do and talk about the windows she comes upon one that just stops her in her tracks. The absolute beauty and brilliance of the window has her mesmerized. Then she notices in the window leaning against a blue plush velvet chair is a large framed picture. Her heart starts racing and she takes in the most beautiful man she has ever seen Evan Duke. She licks her lips letting out a sigh as her eyes slip halfway closed. She murmurs faintly “Oh j'adore... What I would do with you!” Suddenly her eyes flutter open as she hears a husky, masculine voice “Perhaps I can be of assistance.”

As she turns to face him she stumbles forward. Luckily he catches her and the touch sends electricity shooting through her body and heat straight between her thighs. As he holds onto her firmer than before he says “What exactly did you have in mind to do with me?” He tells her about how he saw her leave by herself but didn’t get into a cab so he followed her. Why did he follow her? Where will this meeting lead? Will she be alone for the rest of this holiday weekend?

I give this book a solid five hard sexy stars. This book was amazingly hot, sexy, funny, and exciting. There is so much more to little lonely Melissa than what she appears to be and Evan is the ultimate sex god.. This book has at least two or more sex scenes per chapter. So hold onto your pillows girls because your gonna need some alone time during this book!!

Let me start off by saying, what a beautiful love story. It went far beyond my expectations. I had to read it twice just to make sure I got the full effect of the story and that nothing escaped my eyes. The story takes place during the Christmas holidays between New York, Paris and California. I'm not going to give away any spoilers but for anyone that believes in true love, romance and destiny this is definitely the story for you. It starts off when Melissa is at a annual holiday party for her job. Feeling a little sad she decides to cut out a little early taking a stroll to admire the holiday window displays. She encounters a very special man that is in front and behind her. Takes him home intending on a night of pleasure and never expects a one night stand could take her through the wildest time of her life. Evan is a gorgeous supermodel that is every woman dreams but only has eyes for one person. He will stop at nothing to have her and make her happy. Fifi Flowers is a brilliant story writer with a great imagination. She draws you into her story and makes you wish that you were the love interest. I came upon this Story while blogging and it was worth the purchase. I can not wait to see what else she comes up with.

This is Fifi Flowers first attempt at authoring. As her first book, this story shows a plausible plot line, real life well defined characters, with the thrill of a romance full of passion.

Melissa and Evan meet under unusual circumstances. Their work happens to dovetail them into meeting. Although not formally introduced, Evan has kept his eyes on Melissa for a while. Melissa is fascinated by Evan's looks. He is her dream man come true.

Throughout the book, we learn about these two characters in detail. We eventually realize that if Fate really exists, these two were meant to be together. This is a journey of understanding, merging of emotions, and two souls finding themselves.

The plot line is sound, the characters are well defined and real, the love scenes are thrilling and passionate. Great romance could not ask for more!

If you notice the use of french words intermixed in the dialogue between our characters, please note there is a reason for this which will be explained at the end of the book.

Melissa thought that holidays were never going to be the same again. When there a tragic accident involving her parents, she didn't want to celebrate anything that reminder her of them. The one evening after an office party, she decides to go for walk. She stops at a holiday window when a stranger comes up behind her start as talking to her. They build a relationship only to find out that her parents and her boyfriend Evan's parent were friends. Their relationship moves rather quickly but they feel for each other very deeply. When Evan read a story about Melissa and who she really is he doesn't care it just makes him love her more. I loved this book and I am looking forward to reading book two.

I received a copy of this book for an honest review for Amber's Reading Room.

Take one heartbroken heiress and one world famous male model, throw in a heaping helping of bedroom time with splashes of Christmas spirit and you get A Window to Love by Fifi Flowers. This erotic romance puts a new spin on boy meets girl and I dare you to not fall for the sweet and sexy leads.

For the first time in the seven years since her parent’s tragic death, Melissa Camille Bennette is braving the streets of Manhattan to try to find her holiday spirit. Checking out the glossy and gorgeous department store windows had been a long standing holiday tradition for her family, but now those windows just leave her feeling lost.

“Now I am alone with only my memories of bundling up in scarves, mittens, hats and sipping steaming cups of hot cocoa as my parents, and I stood exactly where I stand now excitedly discussing every detail of the masterfully created miniature wonderlands. There was no excitement this year; there was no one to ooh and aah with, to dream with, to share the special spirit of the holiday.”

Enter model Evan Drake. When Melissa spots a picture of Evan and makes an off-handed comment about what she’d love to do to him, he just happens to be close enough to call her on it. Heat ignites between the two and they quickly agree to spend the night together. What was meant to be one night of pleasure quickly engulfs the pair, leaving each wanting much more physically and maybe even emotionally.

“It’s crazy, but I find myself wanting to pleasure Melissa until she is completely consumed with me. I wanted her obsessed with me. I wanted her to beg me to never leave her because I didn’t want to be without her.”

The course of true love has always been a bumpy one and it only gets bumpier when it starts with a one-and-done booty call. Can Evan convince Melissa his tabloid worthy relationship history is a thing of the past? Can Melissa trust Evan with her heart after keeping it on lock-down for so long?

I don’t know what I was expecting jumping into A Window to Love, but I was pleasantly surprised with a well written erotic romance that managed to put the hot and heavy front and center and kept it balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. Melissa and Evan both have back stories that could make them seem a little larger than life, but Flower keeps them grounded and realistic. I enjoyed getting the POV of both leads and it made me cheer for them to find a happy ever after together.

One small issue keeps me from rating this higher. Both Melissa and Evan occasionally like to slip French into their conversations. Each has a legitimate reason, Melissa having some French heritage and Evan being an international model, but as I invested in the couple I found that it would pull me out of certain scenes. Some may like it, it just wasn’t my thing.

“Oh mon dieu. Please. Pleeeeease stop torturing moi. I beg you, Evan.”

All in all A Window to Love is a very original and solid steamy read that corresponds with the season, definitely worth checking out. Flowers is a first time author and the quality of A Window to Love has me impressed. I think you will be too.

Happy reading.

Oh, mon dieu! Fifi Flowers gives us another taste of her extravagant and eclectic writing in A Window to Love, book number one in the Encounters series.
Melissa Bennette is lonely, wandering the streets of New York, looking at all the shop windows decorated for Christmas. The holiday tradition used to be spent with her parents, but ever since a tragic accident took their lives, Melissa has had a hard time during the Christmas season.
One window brings a man into her life, one that changes everything.
“Oh, what I would love to do with you.”
Evan Duke has been following Melissa around for quite a while, not just that night. He sees his chance and takes her home for a night filled with hot and steamy sex.
When Evan decides he wants more, Melissa is ready to give that to him. She is always wary though, afraid that he will drop her like he does all his other women.
Watch as Evan and Melissa’s relationship blossoms and brush up on your French with Fifi Flowers’ A Window to Love.
I give Fifi Flowers four and a half stars for this novel. It was really well written and I loved the story line. In places, though, the story seemed way too rushed, and I didn’t like that.
There was also some minor grammar and punctuation issues, but those didn’t bother me as much.
Fifi Flowers also brings in many little French phrases and words, which is totally Fifi. I only needed my translator app once or twice; she does a really good job using the context around those words and phrases to make sure you know what she is saying.
The romance factor in this novel is way up in the stratosphere. Fifi can write erotica like it’s nobody’s business. Definitely intended for those readers eighteen and up. It never got old to me, she was continually refreshing it with new ideas.
Another thing that Fifi is really good at is description. She has a very colorful vocabulary and never leaves me guessing as to how something or someone looks. As soon as she described Evan’s appearance, I immediately had David Gandy come to mind.
I love the relationship between all the characters, especially Melissa and Duke. They obviously love each other and have more of a history than even they realized. Melissa also has some amazing and quirky friends. I’d have to say, my favorite scene was the photo shoot with Lilly. You have to read to know what I’m talking about. Not only does it show off Melissa’s friendship with Lilly, but it is a very steamy scene.
Great job, Fifi! I freaking love you. Your writing style, your vocabulary, your erotica… you’re everything I could ever want. I can’t wait for the next book in the Encounters series, I need more Melissa and Evan!

Melissa Bennette lives a quiet life in New York City. After the tragic death of her parents, Melissa is alone. After attending a office holiday party, Melissa decides to walk the beautiful city of New York in hopes of reminding herself of the wonderful memories she had with her family. It's on her journey through the city that she stumbles upon a photo of Evan Duke - who is without a doubt the most beautiful man she has ever seen.

Male model, Evan Duke has his sights set on Melissa. The night of her office holiday party, he sees her leave and he follows her. He sees the beautiful woman lost in her own world of sadness and pain and wants to know her better.

After a passionate weekend together, Melissa knows that there is no way that she can keep Evan forever. She knows that it can only end with her all alone again.

I'm going to miss that gorgeous face, that amazing hard body and the best sex of my life. I think the worst part will be the emptiness.

Even though Evan questions his motives with Melissa, he realizes that he is falling in love with her, and he knows without a doubt that he can make her happy.

I want to take care of her. I want to make everything right in her life. I want to take away her pain. Is she just a project for me? A new campaign? Am I trying to make another thing in my life perfect? If I'm questioning myself, she has to be questioning my motives as well. The truth of the matter is, in my heart, I know I'm falling in love with her.

Can the love that they are forming survive the pressures of "stardom" that come with being a sought after male model? Will the rumors flying through the tabloid tear them apart?

Fifi Flowers keeps you turning the pages (and fanning yourself ofter) through this steamy love affair. Brace yourself for a fun, exciting and erotic ride.

Review for A Window to Love by Fifi Flowers

The book was received from the author in exchange for an honest review.

A Window to Love is the story of Melissa Bennette, a woman who experienced horrible tragedy at a very young age when her parents are killed in a plane crash. And since the double dose of death isn’t quite enough for her to handle, did I mention this all took place at Christmas time? Yeah. Good times. Now another holiday season is upon her and she is ready to spend it alone like always. But is that what fate has in store for her?

While walking along admiring the window displays one evening, Melissa meets Evan Duke, male supermodel. She happens to stop at a window his picture is prominently featured in, and their lives change forever. Will this be the last Christmas she has to spend alone, or is this God-like creature she can’t believe is paying attention to her going to live up to his one-night-stand reputation? Either way, is she willing to take a chance with her heart and body? While she explores the possibilities, they explore each other physically. A lot. I mean, constantly. There is a boatload of sex in this book. But there is also an interesting back-story that shows just how intertwined Melissa and Evan really are.

Overall, A Window to Love is a quick and easy read. The characters are likeable and the story is enjoyable. I’m always glad when there’s a HEA, especially when a main character has had such tragic things happen. I would give it 3.75/5 stars, but you are unable to give partial stars on this site.

A Window to Love (Windows #1)
by Fifi Flowers

Melissa Bennette doesn't celebrate Christmas after the death of her parents. She is gazing into the store windows looking at the Christmas displays she bumps into Evan Duke a sexy male model that can have any woman he desires but he only has eyes for Melissa. They have a one night stand that leads to a weekend fling but develops into more.

This is a really romantic, erotic and touching love story, there is lots of hot sex and a few twists thrown in there too. I love Evan he is loyal and romantic, Melissa grows and develops into a lovely character and she had me shedding a few tears because of the hurt she is carrying around with her. I felt so sorry for her because she seemed so lonely. If anyone deserves to be happy it should be her. I did think at 50% in everything was going too well but I really don't want to spoil the plot.
Well written but with quite a lot of French in this book and I personally think it was enough for the book and could pick up that the author loves France. It was a little on the cheesy side but who doesn't like a bit of cheese now and again?! I found it to be a lovely read and I devoured it in one sitting.
I am excited that there will be more books in this series from the other characters I will love to read their stories.


5 stars for Amazon & 4 for Goodreads

It was a little on the cheesy side but who doesn't like a bit of cheese now and again?! I found it to be a lovely read and I devoured it in one sitting.
I am excited that there will be more books in this series from the other characters I will love to read their stories.


5 stars for Amazon & 4 for Goodreads

Mega rich Melissa doesn't need to work but she chooses to as a way of coping after the tragic death of her parents shortly after Christmas. Working in an ad agency, she meets the enigmatic, male model, Evan and crushes on him from a far. Little does she realise that he is looking for an opportunity to get to know her better. An opportunity that presents itself at the office Christmas party. Melissa leaves the party early, struggling with Christmas festivities and decides to walk past the decorated windows in the hope of recaputuring some of the Christmas magic that has been lost. Whilst looking in one of the windows, a pair of piercing blue eyes meet hers: Evan's. The connection is instant and Evan sets out to bring back the Christmas magic into her life. Misunderstandings, a trip to Paris, an ex who wants to revenge on Melissa, and a jealous interior designer all test their new relationship. Their lives though have many interconnections that they discover along the way. Will they get their HEA? Evan is so sweet and protective towards Melissa that you just want him to be yours. Melissa has her feet firmly on the ground but has many insecurities about herself. Their trip to Paris is a real turning point in the way Melissa sees herself - I loved the scene in Lily's apartment. Hot scenes, fabulous descriptions of the gorgeous Paris, characters that you fall in love and a quirkiness to the writing make this a fantastic and romantic read.

A Window to Love by Fifi Flowers is a realistic romance that blew me away from page one. Instantly, the main character, Melissa Bennette, drew me into her life. She's a beautiful woman who feels lonely. Watching everyone else with someone to kiss, hold, and love them while she's off to the side alone and miserable. I could the emotions as if they were my own. It's not until Melissa leaves the Christmas party to go window shopping as a way to pick up her spirits for the holiday. That's when Fifi Flowers took me on a journey that unravels the inside layers of each character...both Melissa's and the hot male model that turns up the heat fast, Evan Duke. A Window to Love is hot, sexy, and brilliantly well-written. It's not just the hot sex that will hook readers in...but also what happens between the characters emotionally. Their lives and history, as well as their chemistry, is exactly what kept me turning the pages and falling in love. As a reader, I was enchanted. The personalities and physical action are just one part of Fifi Flowers talent as an erotic romance writer. Her words keep you lured, hooked, and begging for more. I was able to read this new novel in one sitting. Overall, I highly recommend this juicy tale to readers everywhere.

You know a book is good when it starts off with hot, steamy, juicy sex. Yes this book did and I loved every minute of it.
Melissa Bennette is lost and lonely. She is gorgeous, funny, and smart. I love how she speaks French in the book, especially during intimate scenes. I think you will really enjoy getting to know her.
Evan Duke is well HOT. I mean he is a model but he drips with sex. I could lick him all over all day long.
Sorry back to the review, got a little excited. He is a man you see in your fantasies but he is a prince charming. He is sweet, jealous when he needs to be, hot, sexy, charismatic, enchanting, and did I mention hot!!! Ladies he is total swoon worthy.
This is a first to a series to come. The next will have new characters but equally hot. The author also says that Evan and Melissa will be returning in the future. YES!!! They are extremely sizzling together.
I loved the art, language and places visited and talked about in this book. I really loved how the art was incorporated, but then again I love the arts. I am giving this book 4 hearts. You need to go get it now and read this steamy, love story.

This book is good for a light read its starts off with Melissa Bennet meeting her sexy male model Evan Duke, which she thinks is going to be a one night stand but continues on.

There are a LOT of sex scenes which is great we love books with some hot sex scenes which we think Ms Flower does a fantastic with, we really enjoyed the quick plot line and the little twists in the book we weren't keen on the whole French part of the book at the start it was good but after a while we found it a bit annoying but that’s just our opinion.

We loved the way the story comes together and how fate has bought them together and how their parents were great friend but Evan and Melissa never meet previously but yet he met her parents, its sweet and a bit romantic the way he loves her.

We love the little twist at the end with the masquerade ball.

Overall this book is a good quick read, we would love to read a full length novel by this author we think she writes beautifully but would love to see more.

She has no idea that he has found her enticing and wants a chance to explore her. One night after a holiday party he follows her & the timing is perfect as she remarks to herself on a window display he is in. "What would you like to do to me?" is his reply to her .

Melissa thought that holidays were never going to be the same again. When there a tragic accident involving her parents, she didn't want to celebrate anything that reminder her of them. The one evening after an office party, she decides to go for walk. She stops at a holiday window when a stranger comes up behind her start as talking to her. They build a relationship only to find out that her parents and her boyfriend Evan's parent were friends. Their relationship moves rather quickly but they feel for each other very deeply. When Evan read a story about Melissa and who she really is he doesn't care it just makes him love her more. I loved this book and I am looking forward to reading book two.

OMG! I LOVE ROMANTIC BOOKS AND I LOVE EROTICA . . . . BUT THIS WAS TOO MUCH FOR EVEN ME. HARDLY ANY STORY LINE JUST PAGE AFTER PAGE, AFTER PAGE, AFTER PAGE, AFTER PAGE OF HOT STEAMY SEXXXXXXXX. LOTS OF DESCRIBING OF FANCY ROOMS, CLOTHES, PEOPLE AND MOUTH WATERING MEALS, THAT'S ALL. PLOT? ZELCH! I REALLY HATED THE FRENCH WORDS SAID BY MELLISA AND EVAN, THEY SEEMED KINDA STUPID AFTER AWHILE. THIS BOOK HAD ENOUGH SEX SCENES TO FILL ABOUT A HUNDRED BOOKS. YOU EVER HEAR OF TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING, THIS BOOK COULD BE USED AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT NOT TO DO. ;{ IT DOES HAVE A VERY BEAUTIFUL BOOK COVER.

Can you say HOTTTTT! That is definitely one way to describe this FIVE star story. Be prepared, once you start reading you will find it impossible to put it down. Great storyline with really enjoyable scenes. Lets just say, I look at fruit a little differently now. Loved all the characters both primary and secondary. A strong yummy male always makes for a good time. I will warn **** lots of sex**** so be prepared. Alone time may be needed! Did take me a little while to adjust to the French usage. When I finished the book I understood why this terminology was used. Lots of descriptive environmental/settings words. It is an overall enjoyable fun read. AndreaAH

Angela's review
The book started out not too bad, but quickly became unrealistic. Don’t get upset, I get that it isn’t supposed to be real. Learning about Melissa and her family was fine. Evan was and his family (although you don’t learn much until the end of the book) was fine. Flower’s sex scenes, again fine. The OVERUSE of french terms was what got me. Every time Melissa said, “Bebe,” I wanted to throw my kindle… but then Evan started using her French slurs. OMG! I could understand him using certain phrases over her. He actually lives there from time to time, but not Melissa. Overall, I’d say it was an okay read.

Review given on behalf of obsessed by books.

Instant love, Fifi does it right.
Evan is a model in his prime and can get any woman he wants, but Evan is looking for somthing deeper than just a one night, but for now that's all he can offer til Melissa. Melissa is a beautiful , but has to sadness in her life. She lost her family in a plane crash and since gas spent days and holidays alone, til 7 years later she decides to attend a company Christmas party that doesn't go as planned , but she finds herself window shopping she meets Evan and the sparks fly. This was a great read.

This is a sweetheart of a start to a great series. Melissa and Evan are just meant to be together from the start but you don't realize how much until the story unfolds. Evan is ever the hot,sexy romance man we all want in our lives. Melissa is a little on the broken side but she is far from weak. They both give each other what they need must which is love. Just because this is a sweet love story. Don't let it cool you. This story is full of hot,passionate and sexy love scenes. Make sure you have a cold drink near by you will need it.

I enjoy reading Fifi's books...always have great characters and steamy sex scenes. I like that the books are fast paced however, sometimes things move along too quickly at the start and not enough build up to the relationship n(or character development) and doesn't seem realistic. Like in this story the couple just falls for each other after a weekend. Overall though I did like the story and would definitely read more from Fifi.

Oui I loved this book. Je t’aime might be my new favorite word now. Evan I mean can he get any sexier.......the answer is NO.....hot model who can speak French......who knows how to treat a lady and just for good measure can dirty talk....SOLD!!! Melissa is one very lucky girl. She was due a win in her life and she hit the lotto big time. I also love the story of how they were connected (trying not to give any spoilers) definitely can not wait for the next book.

Love this book. I could not put this book down once I started reading it. Holy Hotness = Evan Duke. Can't get enough of him. Evan and Melissa are scorchingly HOT together. This book is an absolute MUST read. Get this book and start reading it NOW. You will not be disappointed. Looking forward to future books that Fifi Flowers puts out. Hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.
