Everything they never wanted...is everything they’ll ever need.

Faye Holmes’s life is the polar opposite from her racy, best-selling romances. It’s quiet, routine, and, at the moment, plagued with writer’s block. If only just a little of the passion burning up the pages of her books would warm her lonely bed. But to be honest, one-night stands aren’t her thing.

When her best friend buys her a lap dance to celebrate her latest best seller, Faye is more than shocked. She’s intrigued by the stunningly beautiful dancer whose gentle eyes seem vaguely familiar.

Talia isn’t surprised that her favorite coffee shop customer doesn’t recognise her. Few would connect Talia, mild-mannered barista, with Adria, pole dancer and star of Liverpool’s hottest new strip club. And that’s how Talia wants it. It’s safer this way.

In the glaring spotlight though, no truth can hide for long. For two women from different worlds, falling in love can be a delicious dance - and a dangerous game. Not only for their careers, but for their hearts.

This is a fantastically hot book with excellent narration. I absolutely love both the main characters and their journeys.

First of all, I have enjoyed reading and listening to Melissa Tereze’s novels for quite some time.
While I thoroughly enjoyed this work, there is an element of frustration that runs through almost the entire story, that involves the main character’s inability, due their life experiences or self concept, to believe that they are worth loving.
Also, their ability to communicate what they ultimately want from each other is as great a problem.
They are two very intelligent and creative people who dread love simply because they believe it is either unattainable or unsustainable.
And so, they spend so much time trying to prove to each other that they are not worth seriously investing in simply because they desperately fear the eventual breakup!
Alas, as with all good romances, they come to grips with what they were doing to each other and also denying themselves.
The story is well written and while the British accents prove a bit challenging, I think that a listener from Great Britain might find it a bit easier.
The novel winds up beautifully with all the loose ends tied together in a lovely, sexy bow.
Enjoy.

Inability to communicate ❤️‍🩹

That was a slightly different stripper / dancer story. The ones I've read so far have always been women who had to dance and did it for fateful reasons. They always need the money that can be made quickly with it.
Thalia is so different and that's what I really liked about her.
She has such a healthy relationship to her body and knows how to use it.
She loves dancing on the pole and has built a remarkable career with what she loves.
The problem is the people around her and how they deal with it.
She meets Faye Holmes, a famous author and is fascinated from the first sight.
But the experiences from her past and the fear of getting hurt again do not allow her to trust anyone with her heart.
However, these two have an enormous chemistry right from the start. It's hard to keep their hands off each other. The scenes in the club or especially the scene in the alley ... hot hot hot!
The romangst is again masterfully written and the characters are my favorites again ... I wonder how many favorites fit into such a small heart 😁
Another hit from Melissa Tereze!
Emma Griffiths is one of my absolute favorite Narrators! She has such a soft and sensual voice. It’s perfect for hot and sensual romance!

Another Favorite!

I have loved every book that I've read written by Melissa Tereze and this was no exception. I love the storyline and the characters. I was pulled in right from the first chapter. The narration was very good and brought across the feelings and emotions. I did have some difficulty at points distinguishing which character was speaking though. Other than that this was an awesome audiobook! Highly recommended!!

Another great book from Melissa Tereze!
