Blush (Black Rose series) by Helen Hardt is a contemporary romance with a friends to lovers theme told in dual POV with elements of BDSM/erotica. A new adventure that delivers all that I love about Helen Hardt and much, much more! I’m in love with the cover! If you’re a reader that grabs a book hoping the story is as exciting as the cover you won’t be dissapointed.
Amanda Thomas needs help with her dating profile in hopes to be a bit more extroverted and asks her best friend Jackson to help craft her profile on a spicy dating app. Jackson who sees his best friend as wholesome and sweet isn’t sure what she could possible need from a dating app, especially this one. What will happen when he discovers the introverted sweet friend has more in common with him than he ever could have imagined? Will he risk everything to see if they might be more compatible? With so much at stake will he jeopardize their friendship?
Blush has it all – a woman who knows what she wants, a man who wants to fulfill those desires and a place to satisfy everythying and then some. A world of passion and self discovery with characters that are layered, a plot that delves into a world of desire that might just make you blush … a little ;).
Helen Hardt knows what her readers desire and delivers it each and every time. It’s time to find out what happens if Amanda and Jackson can trust each other with their true desires, they might discover what they need isn’t in an app and that it’s been right in front of them the entire time.
This inferno will cause you to turn on the A/C, the fan and take a cold shower. I received a free copy of this book from the publisher for a fair and honest review.
