Red Hot Secrets

Lauren Reynolds is ready to start her life. Having taken care of her sick mother for the last few years has slowed but not stalled Lauren’s ambition. One of the most daring and dangerous things Lauren has ever done is have a hot one night fling with a total stranger. Now, that man is no longer a stranger – he is her new boss. Matthew Monroe tempts Lauren like no other man ever has and she cannot get him off of her mind. Matt and Lauren fall into a very secret, erotic affair. Lauren fears what will happen when fellow employees find out that she is sleeping with the boss. Lauren is also terrified by how much Matt has come to mean to her in such a short time.

Matthew Monroe has never forgotten the woman he spent a hot summer night with and is pleasantly surprised to find out she is his new employee. Matt wants Lauren and does not care if his other employees know it. Matt never expected to want to give up his bachelor status but Lauren has him thinking about long term commitment. Lauren seems to enjoy their time together, but is unwilling to have an open public relationship with him. Matt is tired of hiding their relationship, but fears that pressuring Lauren will only end up in heartbreak.

Lisa Renee Jones' Red Hot Secrets is exactly that – red hot! Ms. Jones has created two very complex and likeable characters that will touch your heart. While Matt and Lauren have a very intense physical relationship, the deep emotional bond both are reluctant to acknowledge balances it. I enjoyed how each had to face personal demons to have the relationship each desperately wanted. Lauren’s fears about her job and economic status are very understandable has she struggles to have the job and life she wants. This book should not be missed.
