Synopsis:
What would you do to improve your life?
Twenty-one-year-old Serena Thomas is faced with a tough
decision. Unable to get ahead of debt and loneliness since her
grandmother’s death she finds a new job, placing the sheltered virgin in an
underground escort business. She tells herself it’s just a temporary life
choice, but destiny has a different plan. She meets a
mysterious and gorgeous man, who happens to be her new boss.
Will Serena fit in or will she be left all alone again?
Lincoln (aka: Linc) Jefferson has an unusual life. He
established The Lounge, an exclusive escort club for very personal reasons. A
place where the women say who, when, and what type of sex they’re willing to
have. The escorts possess all the power and the money. It’s a business Linc
guards at all costs. Trying to maintain the secrecy is a constant challenge and
one that’s tested when he enters into a relationship with Serena. She tempts
him unlike any woman, even though he’s surrounded by beauty on a daily basis.
The more time they spend together the harder it is for him to keep his secrets.
Will Serena stand by his side or will she abandon him?
Sparks and passion fly, taking these two on a journey
neither could have expected.
Intensity is very special book, since its story is so different than any other and so damn unpredictable!
Every twist and every turn the story takes is unexpected and brilliantly developed. The characters take us in one helluva ride and we love every second of it!
I couldn’t put it down!!
Serena is such a lovely character! She has a good heart, but she isn’t naive or crying her heart out over men. She is a good and loyal friend. She isn’t fearless; she has fears that she deal with every single day. She is a good girl, but isn’t judgemental regarding others who aren’t.
Linc is well..a good man / alpha male. He has this ‘You’re mine - No one touches you’ thing, but he isn’t overbearing. He protects with elegance, should I say. He’s quite the gentleman for an alpha male, too.
I have to say that everyone should have one Serena as a friend and definitely a Linc as a man!
It’s beautifully written and everything fits perfectly!!
Intensity is a great book and I loved it!
I strongly recommend it!!
However, I would like to say that it’s the FIRST BOOK!! The story continues to the next book or books.
Personally, I strongly dislike when I don’t know this fact before I read the book. I don’t have an issue if it’s a 2 book story or a trilogy. But I do want to know beforehand. Unfortunately, it does not happen.
In conclusion, Intensity is a great book that you MUST READ!!
So, Intensity receives 5 Huge Sparkling Golden Stars!!

Excerpt:
He yanked me up from my seat and launched his lips on mine
so fast the contact zapped me with a thousand volts. His strokes, bold at
first, lightened to soft, tender kisses almost as if he was asking permission
to enter—to taste.
The heat from his hands, holding my upper arms, seared me.
My fists clenched and unclenched over and over at my sides.
Touch him?
Don’t touch him?
Unable to deny myself, I moved closer, aligning my body with
his. My hands gravitated of their own volition, melting to his tight abs and
drifting upward, over his chest and up to his neck, where I held on for the
ride.
His loud groan rumbled across my breasts, and his firm arms
wound around my back, crushing me against him.
For the first time in my life, I surrendered and parted my lips,
ready to welcome him in. Instead of tongues diving toward one another, Linc
stilled and clamped his mouth shut. As I started to step away, he clenched my
hips, holding me in place. He pressed his forehead to mine and slammed his eyes
closed.
Kiss me, please.
