With her very staid boyfriend out of the country for the week, Eileen Connolly wants to fulfill her most secret fantasy. She wants sex with a rugged, dark stranger - a man she would never have to see again before she commits to a life time of stability. With her darkest desires fulfilled, Eileen thinks she could accept Benjamin's proposal and move in with him. But rather than finding her fantasy man in a bar somewhere, Eileen unexpectedly encounters him in her office after hours installing telephone lines. He is everything she wants: single, footloose and fancy free and not the kind of guy like her boyfriend whose life is run by business.
Doing an installation rather than soothing irritable clients brings Shane Nichols a sense of satisfaction. His life is a mess owning a company that controls his every moment, so working with his hands brings a sense of accomplishment he had almost forgotten. He has been fantasizing about the blond lawyer in this office since the first time he caught a glimpse of her, so when she suddenly appears with a proposition, he accepts. But Shane wants more than one episode of fabulous sex. Now he wants to convince Eileen that he is the man she needs for permanence.

It was good. Just what I expect from her Blaze books. Heat, humor and misty eyes at a few spots.

she is about to commit to her boring boyfriend but wants to have one last fling with a stranger, he has been working way to hard at his small business.... they meet in her office building after hours one night and so it begins.... this was a good book but it was really just one sex scene after another... not a lot of plot, but sometimes thats what you are looking for in a romance novel...
For years, levelheaded lawyer Eileen Connolly has been fighting a reckless craving--for sex with a stranger. Well, it's now or never. She's about to commit to her boyfriend--a decent guy who's as irresistible as an unglazed doughnut. All she wants is one wild, adventurous night. After that, she'll be ready to settle into predictability.
Then gorgeous Shane Nichols shows up at Eileen's office to fix the phones. In his tight jeans and tool belt, he's a walking, talking, chocolate-glazed, cream-filled eclair. And suddenly one night doesn't seem like enough to satisfy Eileen's craving for something so wickedly delicious...

This is one of my all time favorite Blaze titles. It is on the keeper shelf. Find a copy of this book and read it, you won't be sorry!!
Eileen Connolly's boyfriend has asked her to move in with him a couple of times. She has put him off because she has some fantasies she wants to get out of the way before making a commitment. Eileen wants sex with a stranger. While her boyfriend is out of town, Eileen decides to act on her fantasy. Shane Nichols is a contractor working on the phone system in Eileen's office. The gorgeous hunk is just what Eileen is looking for. Shane had noticed Eileen when he was in the office the previous week and had already decided to ask her out. When she propositions him for a one-night-stand, Shane agrees...but he already has plans to turn this night into a long-term relationship.
This is a category romance in the Harlequin Blaze line. The story was more or less a sexfest. I liked Shane a lot. He knew what he wanted and knew exactly what Eileen needed. I'm still not sure how I feel about Eileen. She wanted more excitement in her life and knew her boyfriend wouldn't be able to give it to her. She thought she could have her fun, then settle down into a boring life with her boyfriend. I lost respect for her when she was upset after finding out her boyfriend had done the same thing that she did. My rating: 3 Stars.
