I enjoyed this book. It is the first I have read by Susan Lyons and just happens to be the first in a set of 4 books about 4 best friends. This first book is about Suzanne and Jaxon. They meet while both on vacation in Crete and have one afternoon of wild sex on a nude beach. They don't exchange names or any other information.
Four years later, after Suzanne puts an add online to search for him (at her friends insistance) they find each other based soley on personal information that only the two of them would know about that special day. They don't live in the same place and they don't have the same life goals, but sometimes the chemistry is the thing that gets you started when true love is what keeps you going in the end.
The Heroine and Hero are an interatial couple. Its obvious but not the main issue in this book. Lyons doesn't make their race a part of their issues. I would NOT have enjoyed this book as much if she had. Jaxon being Black doesn't take over the storyline, just like Suzanne being white doesn't bring the tone of the book down.
This book was sexy but not dirty. It was actually pretty romantic all the way through. Lyons did a great job keeping the sizzle hot hot hot throughout the entire book without overdoing the sex part at the expense of the storyline itself. I will deffinately be reading the other 3 books, which will tell the stories of Suzannes other 3 friends, who we meet in this book.
