What a wonderful setting- on a houseboat on the Severn Valley. Sienna lives in a house overlooking the boat and has seen a steady succession of ladies visiting Adam.
She’s got to write a sizzling sex scene for the script she’s working on and being fairly unexperienced she decides that she needs to proposition Adam! They have a draw between them and need to see where a relationship would lead. Adam thinks that Sienna could be the girl to make him want to change his ways.
Great characters-will we grow to love Adam- or is he just a Cassanova?
A really enjoyable read.

I'm a big fan of Sheryl's books so I was really looking forward to reading this one, even more so because I'd heard a lot of good things about it.

Two very different characters greeted me during the first pages, it made me wonder how and when they would find their connection.

It quickly became apparent that Adam was living with some kind of hurt, his behaviour was too destructive for him not to be. Honestly, I really didn't like him much at that point but when Sienna witnessed something she shouldn't have, I couldn't help but giggle at the mortifying situation.

As the pieces of the puzzle began to fall into place, my feelings towards Adam started to change. Although I still didn't agree with what he had done, I guess I could understand it and actually found myself wanting to help him! Sienna, on the other hand, seemed like an open book. I loved her honesty and naivety because it complimented Adam's closed-up personality perfectly.

The thing I loved most about this book was the variety - the author successfully created an atmosphere that was steamy, amusing and heart-wrenching all at the same time. It pretty much contained everything that would grab my attention and keep me interested.

The misty apparition was a fabulous addition to the storyline. It was something I hadn't expected but I think the character who was affected by it really needed that presence in their life, particularly during the tense scenes towards the end.

This was a very sexually charged read but it also had bags of emotional and even funny moments which, in my opinion, made it a perfect all-rounder.
