Just as she is ready to face her fears and her past, she finds herself torn between Matt Jackson and Vance Ellery: handsome, rich, and safe – or handsome, rich, and dangerous?


Which will she choose?


The one who appears to be the most perfect, or the one who makes her use all Seven Dirty Words?

EXCERPT


I died for a short while the first time we met. There was no fluttering in my chest, no somersault of my stomach, no burning in my loins; my heart literally stopped. He was tall, at least six foot four, and dressed in a pair of worn indigo jeans that perfectly matched his intense stare. A silk black shirt covered what I imagined to be a ripple of hard muscle, and opened at the top showing a dusting of tight dark curls. His thick neck led towards a razor-sharp, square jaw line, a straight nose that had clearly never seen the ill-effects of rough play, and deep hooded eyes. His hair had been styled with a slight wave. I was sure it was dark brown, but it could have easily been black, and had shots of silver-grey streaking through it.


My face was lined up with his toes, or more precisely, his pristinely polished black patent Chukka boots. Palms down in the thick mud beneath me, I pushed up and sneaked a glance at the man in front of me. He looked none-too-pleased to see his clothes spattered with flecks of dirt from where I had landed and splashed him.

MY REVIEW

Seven Dirty WordsSeven Dirty Words by Charlotte V. Howard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

*3.5 Stars*

Seven Dirty Words it's a book about a woman in between of two man. Sounds easy, doesn't it? Well it's not. There's a painful secret, family feuds, money, power, sex, treachery, love, sports, etc.
Yes, Paige is in between Vance and Matt, both rich and handsome, one older (much older) and experienced, and the other young and ambitious. Which will she choose?
I like the story, it's well written, with strong characters and full of emotions.
So far so good, isn't?
Well, now what I didn't liked: Paige, sorry, but she's a child trapped in a bombshell body, her moods are infuriating, she takes so many wrong choices, but doesn't take charge when everything goes to hell, there's always someone picking the pieces.
Overall, it's an entertainment read, with good steamy sex scenes.
