Book Review-- Wicked Valentine by April Angel

Synopsis: Who knew being wicked could be this fun?

Maxwell Stone has wanted Sabrina for over a year. But Nina’s the ultimate professional and has no intention of getting involved. That is, until the night she gets a little tipsy and finds herself begging for his touch.

After an intense night of making Nina’s sexual fantasies come true, Max finds he doesn’t want to let her go. Nina wants Maxwell too, but she won’t put her job on the line for any man. She loves the passion they shared, but when she’s invited to the Wicked Valentine Ball, she decides it’s time to put Max out of her mind. Of course, the last thing she expects is for him to be her escort. And she doesn’t expect to find someone else trying to keep them apart. Permanently…

Shelly's Thoughts: This was the first book I'd read by April Angel and I found myself really liking it. It's a quick and extremely smutty read. Nina and Max are perfect for each other and they have a lot of built up tension and spark. When they finally give in to these feelings the sparks really fly.

One thing that I like about Ms. Angel's female leads is that they are strong, well spoken women. They don't cower or simply roll over for whoever they want. There's a game between the male and female leads and the build up is just as much fun as when they do finally cave and give in to their cravings.

My only negative point about this story is that it is so short, meaning that the subplot didn't feel as complete. It was a little cliched, a little predictable, and I would have been sucked in more if that was more thought out.
