review 1: This was so sexy and Hot I couldn't put it down till I reached the end, and then I was wishing for more. This is about two people who met a few years before during college. Laura, a pretty but shy brainiac. Ethan,a talented, buff, girl magnet. She had her sights set on him at a frat party and they hit it off. He liked her a lot so when he realized she had too much to drink, after she divulged her sexual fantasies to him, he refused to take advantage of her. She took it personal and was humiliated. So she avoided him the rest of college until they accidentally meet again years later.They are both on their way to a very important job interview with a very prestigious company. Her car runs off the side of the road because of a snow storm on a mountain road. They meet in the ... morelocal market and end up going to Ethan's friend's cabin to wait out the storm. After much discussion....remember those fantasies I mentioned earlier? Buy this book. It's funny, Erotic romantic, with an HEA. There are two more books so far in this series. This was so good I'm off to buy the others. If for no other reason you need to get this book just to find out who gets the job, Ethan or Laura.
review 2: The last thing Laura Barber expected was to be stuck in small mountain town during a blizzard. Even more surprising was to find the one guy from college she wanted, but hoped she's never see again...Ethan Gould. But being stranded, without any housing options, she agrees to go with Ethan to his friend's cabin until the storm passes. She never expected that the storm that was going to be brewing was the one inside the cabin.Laura has a bit of a hang up when it comes to sex. She has desires, but she thinks people will think less of her if she were to act on them or make them known. Ethan offers her the chance to spend a few days, uninhibited by her hang ups, having the kind of sex she'd only dream about...with no strings attached. Laura jumps at the chance and let's all her fantasies play out. But when Ethan changes the rules, she walks away with almost no second glance.While Laura admits to herself that her feelings for Ethan run much deeper than she let on, she wouldn't show that to Ethan even when he was admitting that he wanted more. Sure he screwed up when he talked about their future, but she also let her own hang ups get in the way of trying to sort out what they should do next.The title is appropriate for this one, because he was definitely hot. But it was also about a woman learning about who she is and not being afraid to be that person...especially with her lover.It's a quick one, but it's hot and definitely one to pick up. less

The length makes it NOT a waste of time, but it's wholly mediocre.

It was ok. But short.
