Hmm, well, this book was HAWT. Truly. I never spell "hot" like that, but I feel it's appropriate for Exploration because.....damn. Maybe that should be da-yum?? Never mind, it's not important. What's important is the fact that this is only book one in the Potential Trilogy and I'm already hooked. Seriously hooked. Because I've just finished and I'm kinda, sorta, a little hot and bothered and desperate for book two. In case you're wondering, I consider that to be a good thing. I'm also considering the merits of the Cajun accent and whether I should start springing for business or first class on all future flights.... *Fans self* If y'all could see the highlighting I did in this book.... Line after line of panty-melting dirty-talk and sexual discovery. Wow.
Jazzmyne Mickelson is looking to explore life and the world. Widowed at 26 after years of watching her husband's health fail, it's time for her to seek out new experiences, new people and new places. Her first adventure? Paris. On the airplane, she sits next to a handsome, sexily-accented man and is immediately drawn to him. Julian St. Sauveur sees the beguiling woman and recognizes the potential between them. Not one to sit around and wait, he's intent on winning her over, exploring that potential and having her as quickly as he can. He can tell that she's reluctant to enter another long-term commitment so soon after her husband's death but he's not about to lose her when he's just found her. Instead, he plans to show her Paris, his wealthy world and make her an intriguing proposition for the future of their new relationship...
I'm not going to beat around the bush. There's a lot of sex in this book.... A. Lot. Of. Sex. This is a book about self discovery and trying new things, so it works. I'll admit that there isn't a lot going on outside of the bedroom - when they're not in it they're talking about it, or so it seems - but that didn't lessen my enjoyment of it. It played into the idea that Jazz had missed a lot, and suffered because of it, in her marriage and her marriage bed. Plus, Jazz and Julian had undeniable chemistry as well as something you don't see a lot of in books: good communication. He did the alpha-male thing, she told him off. They compromised. It was refreshing. She wasn't ready for a relationship, he wasn't willing to let her push him, and their potential, away. They found middle ground. Again, refreshing. I'm not convinced this book is specific to one genre either. It's a little bit of everything. A little bit biker, a little bit billionaire. A little bit contemporary, a little bit erotica. I'm intrigued with the direction that Peyton Sloane is taking thecouple. It, as Julian would say, has some serious potential and I can't wait to get my hands on book two, Obstruction, to see what she does with it and how the characters handle phase two of their relationship. I only hope it's a HAWT as Exploration.
This is the first book in the Potential Trilogy and has a minor cliffhanger (*wiggles eyebrows* a sexy cliffhanger!!!)
