Review: "HOT AND BOTHERED...is exactly what a Harlequin Temptation should be: fast, funny, and sexy."

Summary: Hot, hilarious and well written
Review: -- you'll no doubt like this story of two friends about to take the next step in their relationship.

Trevor Templeton & Lee Phillips have known each other for years, part of a college group that also includes Katy & Ben (friends, then married), Susan(divorced) and Peter(looking for his true partner in life). The six have been there for each other through thick and thin and although Led and Trevor entertained private thoughts about what it would be like to become intimate with each other, they have not yet taken that step. Until Lee not only broaches the subject but pretty much pesters Trevor into going along with the plan. Not that Trevor needs to be pestered much.

The rest of the story chronicles the trials and tribulations inherent to such an undertaking. At times, the other 4 friends seem to be more of a hindrance than help and they tend to get in the way, but their hearts are in the right place. And the scene in the elevator is so truly memorable that it alone is worth the price of the book.

I've read many of the Temptation Blaze line and "Hot and Bothered" wasn't has 'hot' as I'd come to expect. But readers looking for a good way to spend a day's reading won't be disappointed.

Summary: LOVED IT !!!
Review: Back Cover Copy: SHE WAS BOTHERED...Stockbroker Lee Phillips figured she had it all. Great job, gorgeous home, okay body. Hmm, two cats for company and far too many nights sleeping alone. Where was Mr. Right in this picture? Closer than she realized. Her best pal, Trevor Templeton, was VERY appealing. Almost lovable... HE WAS HOT...Trevor thought he had it all, too. Great job, bachelor loft, hard body...and no cats. But to his amazement his best buddy, Lee, wanted to, uh, get naked with him. Correction: make love with him. No, it was too awkward, too tempting...and what if it was too good? What about their friendship then? And what if ONE of them fell in love...? I am soo glad I bought that book. Definitely a keeper!!! Don't miss it!!! It certainly will be one of my all time favorites. I couldn't stop turning the pages until the very last word and the pages turned almost by themselves. You won't be able to put this book down once you get started with page one. It's a fast read filled with great dialogue, hilarious situations and compelling characters. Lee and Trevor had me laugh out loud several times, it is so hilarious. The way she tries to persuade him and the way he reacts to it, is incredibly funny. And since she shared her crazy plan with him, all of a sudden there is a constant sexual tension between them and his brain was barely capable thinking about anything else. This book is definitely out of the ordinary. I even liked all the other characters in this book which I usually hardly do. Jo Leigh knows how to capture the readers attention and refuses to let it go. This is not a book easily put down nor forgotten once finished. Jo Leigh has all my admiration and respect for having the talent to write something so funny and which such intuitional grasp. It is a pure pleasure to read!
