REVIEW | Love In Lingerie By Alessandra Torre

I hired her to fix my company, to bring Marks Lingerie back to life. I didn’t expect her to become my friend. I didn’t expect to fall in love with her.

The first rule of business is to never touch your employees. I think there is another rule about not falling for your best friend—a rule against imagining the curves of her body, or the way her breathing would change if I pulled down her panties and unzipped my pants.

Now, I can’t wait any longer. I’m tossing out the rules.

Damn the company.
Damn our friendship.
Damn my fears.

TITLE: Love In Lingerie

AUTHOR: Alessandra Torre

FORMAT- Ebook

So guys I am going to be completely honest here, I seriously didn't think that I would like a book with a hero who is actually an alien. But holy moley...did I love this book. Actually I am in awe of this book. This book CAPTURED my attention from its very first page.

OH MY GOD This was one hell of an angsty ride and I already want more.

This is my first Alessandra Torre read and I am absolutely not regretting reading it.

When I first stumbled across the title "LOVE IN LINGERIE", I Just picked it up. Honestly, the title fascinated me and once you are into the book, you can't put the book down.

Trey Marks*fans-self* is the owner of Mark's Lingerie and, the company is on the verge of ending and his life is falling into pieces. He is desperately in need of that one person who would save his ass from the downfall. He is temperamental and can be a real asshole and a cocky bastard but he is also swoon worthy*turns me into a puddle of mush*. Enters Kate Martin, she is bossy and I love it. She applies for the position of creative director at Mark's Lingerie. On her first meeting with Mark, she despises him but at the same time, her body desires him*feel the heat*.

Trey Marks is a man far from the simple needs, he needs to save his company and rebuilt his empire and he needs to be in control, so he doesn't sleep with the only woman who could save his Marks Lingerie. He wants to bend her over the table but has to control his desires and has to be on strict work terms with her. Kate is exactly what his company needs and he himself too.

They both were strictly on work term bases and with time became best friends. They were not in a relationship until the end.

Sexual tension is unbearable, you can feel the energy. They just want to rip each other's clothes off and kiss and sometimes cuddle, but they just can't give in to the temptation. There came a point when I wanted to shove them to each other and tell them to kiss already.

Trey realizes that he is actually in love with Kate, but he just can't confess because he thinks that he would lose her forever.

“I could tell her how I feel and plead for her heart. I could come inside of her, and have her for the rest of my fucking life. "

Their relation is so sweet and hot and sexy at the all at once. Their regular banter adds the much-needed humor in the story. Their possessiveness for each other is another plus point and Trey's cocky and easygoing attitude is the cherry on the top.

"If our love was lingerie, it'd be leather, thin strips of binding that could withstand a hundred years of war and peace, fights and love making".

Trey's Rating-- 5 stars
Kate's Rating--5 stars
Story Rating--5 stars
Plot Twist Rating--4 stars
Sexual Tension Rating--4.5 stars
Sexual scenes Rating--4.5 stars

Five Things 'FIVE FEET APART' Taught Us

'Five Feet Apart' is an American Romantic Drama, inspired by a real-life couple Dalton and Katie Prager, who both suffered from cystic fibrosis . As you all know that I'm not a movie person, I'd choose books anytime over movies but as I am going through 'Reader's Slump' so I decided to watch Netflix and guess what? I found this treasure. This movie impacted me greatly so I decided to share all my takings with you all. Let's start! 1. Live Big because life don't give us enough chances. 2. Take risks , you never know which moment is your last. 3. Love! Don't be scared of it. Loving won't kill you but not doing it will surely kill a part of you. 4. Take chances! We can die today, we can die tomorrow but we can also make our life worth living. 5. Breathe! Take a deep breath and enjoy your today. We are all on borrowed time. Instead of focusing on making your tomorrow good, make your today even better.

REVIEW: Broken Knight by L.J. Shen

Not all love stories are written the same way. Ours had torn chapters, missing paragraphs, and a bittersweet ending. Luna Rexroth is everyone’s favorite wallflower. Sweet. Caring. Charitable. Quiet. Fake. Underneath the meek, tomboy exterior everyone loves (yet pities) is a girl who knows exactly what, and who, she wants—namely, the boy from the treehouse who taught her how to curse in sign language. Who taught her how to laugh. To live. To love. Knight Cole is everyone’s favorite football hero. Gorgeous. Athletic. Rugged. Popular. Liar. This daredevil hell-raiser could knock you up with his gaze alone, but he only has eyes for the girl across the street: Luna. But Luna is not who she used to be. She doesn’t need his protection anymore. When life throws a curveball at All Saints’ golden boy, he’s forced to realize not all knights are heroes. Sometimes, the greatest love stories flourish in tragedy TITLE- Broken Knight AUTHOR- L.J. Shen FORMAT- E
