For 100 Days by Lara AdrianMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
For 100 Days is the 1st book in Lara Adrian's 100 Days Trilogy.
This is an erotic contemporary romance and is the story of Dominic (Nick) Blaine, self-made millionaire, sexy, irresistible and mysterious and Avery Ross, artist, struggling to make ends meet in NYC by working as a waitress/bartender. Two damaged people, both with dark secrets who meet by chance and what starts as an intense sexual attraction soon becomes more than what they expected.
The connection and chemistry between the two is immediate and transforms into a much deeper connection.
Avery has trust issues, painful secrets from her past which can destroy her relationship and the feelings that are growing for Dominic.
I liked her character. She wasn't some naive and stupid woman.
But I liked Dominic Blaine the most in this story. I found him totally irresistible. He's not afraid to own up to his feelings for Avery.....he wants her to surrender to him....a little bondage and kink...(no heavy BDSM).....but he also cares about her....
And of course...there's lots and lots of sex when these two are together...but not smutty but rather well-written.
I liked the NYC setting...
...in fact, the opening paragraph totally drew me in...
Cold afternoon rain needles my cheeks as I emerge from Grand Central Station with the rest of the crowd fresh off the subway. I wince and tug the hood of my jacket a little farther over my face as I push forward in the drizzle and try to ignore the chilly, late April gust that sweeps through the city’s skyscraper canyons on a low, banshee howl.
I hate these cliff-hangers.........nothing is resolved by the end of this story....yes, I know, this was Avery's POV story and we will now have to wait for Dominic's story next.
I enjoyed the start of the series and I am looking forward to the next instalment.
