BOOK REVIEW- LEXIE by Kimberly Dean
Desire is a double-edged dance.
Lexie Underhill works her tail off in hopes of winning her adoptive father’s approval. It’s never enough. The stinging proof? He’s brought in a reorganization expert. As if the prospect of losing her job in the family business isn’t enough, Cameron Rowe’s sexy, intimidating presence makes her palms sweat.
When Lexie’s face appears on a scandalous freeway billboard, her protestations of innocence go unheard. With orders to save the family name—or else—she marches into the bar the billboard was advertising and comes face-to-face with an identical twin sister. Roxie is wild and free, everything Lexie isn’t. Before the night is out, she welcomes the chance to explore her own sensuality.
As she dances wantonly on the bar, suddenly Cam is there, kissing her as if he has the right. The sizzle between them breaks out in four-alarm desire, but Lexie has recalibrated her life plan. And the equation doesn’t factor in Cam—until she’s sure where his loyalties lie. With her…or her father’s company. AMAZON
I really liked this book and it kept me involved in the story pretty easily.
Lexie and Cameron made really good characters. It made me smile that Lexie thought of Cameron as The Hatchet Man. And even called him that a time or two. She definitely didn't trust him and saw him as a corporate shark, determined to destroy the family business. You could feel the tension in the very first chapter.
Cameron played his cards close to his chest even though he knew Lexi was terrified about what he was up to. He gathered points in my book when he often defended Lexi, even against her own family.
It was pretty clear he thought she was beautiful AND brilliant. The way he sees it she also works too hard and is underappreciated. He also wanted her and knew he had a fight on his hands.
I don't want to say too much because the story needs to unfold the way it does. Just prepare for several surprises and enjoy the ride.
Yes, there will be several sexual encounters but also a H.E.A.
I now am interesting in the other books in the series.
