Cassie had been looking out for her sister Jessica what felt like her whole life. So when Jess starts dating a man whom Cassie believes poses a threat to her sister’s safety, she steps in, insisting on meeting him. The last thing she expected to happen was that she would fall for the man’s cousin–who just so happens to be Cassie’s boss! And she certainly wasn’t expecting him to reveal the deep, dark secrets he’d been hiding from her for years. Can their love survive, or will Cassie run away from the opportunity in front of her?
“What She Didn’t Know” is an erotic romance parody short story intended for mature audiences only.
What She Didn’t Know is definitely a scorcher … and a ton of fun. It’s a sassy little novella about secrets, desires and trust. It’s not very long, but that’s ok because it says quite a lot in a few pages. It’s not an amazingly deep story or anything but it is sexy and sweet and I ended it with a smile on my face.
The blurb calls it a parody but I’m not sure I would agree – that makes me think of a spoof, something making fun of the thing it is emulating. Instead, it pulls themes from a couple of different genres but manages to tell a complete and engaging story, full of interesting characters who have to figure out if their differences are insurmountable. Maybe the author isn’t taking the genre that seriously but I found it to be a pretty decent little romance.
If you are looking for something that doesn’t take long to read but will steam up your glasses, What She Didn’t Know is the perfect choice – a little humor, a LOT of heat, and a decent amount of heart all mixed together to give you a fun, quick read between other, full-length romances.
