The Notting Hill Diaries featuring
Ripped & Burned by Sarah Morgan.
Hayley didn't think being a
bridesmaid at her ex's wedding could get any worse-until her hideous yellow
dress ripped in the middle of the ceremony! Yet when sexy best man Nico comes
to her rescue, the wedding of her nightmares could turn into the love story of
her dreams...
Rosie takes pride in remaining
composed when Hunter Black-her former lover- becomes her new boss. The one
thing Rosie didn't count on? The powerful chemistry they still share! Or that a
blast from the past can be just what you need!
My Opinion:
Sarah Morgan is
one of my favourite author, so I was sure to include her in The
SexMeUpReadathon and here we go.
It’s split into
two different stories, Ripped and Burned, which are still connected to each
other. Hayley, the lead female in Ripped is Rosie’s sister, who is the lead in
Burned.
All in all I
liked Hayley more, probably because I felt more related to her and Nico
definitely sounds like my type ;). Hayley is a bridesmaid at her ex’s wedding,
which is not fun at all and then everything gets worse, or let’s say very
embarrassing, not only once, but twice. Her dress is Ripped and Nico, the best
man comes for her rescue, they find a quite place and well… Of course they’re
disturbed after that.
I felt their
connection immediately and just hoped that they would meet again. At Christmas
he is suddenly there and that was all Rosie’s doing ;). Such a great sister.
Nico and Hayley hit it off and these scenes couldn’t be more passionate, but
also full of love. Hayley made a New Year’s resolution just the have sex with
no feelings attached, but with Nico now… Does he want the same anyway? We find
out at New Year’s Eve and I loved how honest he was with her then. He spilled
all his feelings and explained to her that he was interested in her from the
start…
Rosie was there
for Hayley all the way and Sarah just found a wonderful way to tell this
lovestory in a flirty, clever and passionate way.
Oh and Nico,
WOW!!!! BOOK BOYFRIEND!
Now, let’s talk
about Rosie. She is shaken and shocked when her ex Hunter Black returns. He’s
her new boss, which makes everything even more complicated. Their chemistry was
awesome and feelable thorough the book. They just belonged together, but Rosie
had the figure that out first and just be true to herself. Some steamy scenes
are guaranteed and the sisterly love came through again.
Sarah found the
perfect combination between erotic scenes and the whole rest of the story. This
is what makes a story brilliant to me, so well done Sarah!!!
