Sex Snob is a spin-off of Pieces of Perfect but can be read as a stand-alone novel.
Twenty-nine year old wild, carefree, and brutally sarcastic Amanda Bishop thought her three rules for dating would weed out unworthy suitors. And they did. Until she met Shane Reed, her smart-ass, sexy-as-sin CrossFit coach who pushes all her buttons. He’s the man she loves to hate. But when the hate begins to ebb away, and is replaced by feelings she can’t handle, Amanda hides behind her rules. Will the electric chemistry she feels with Shane allow her to get beyond a painful past, or will she push him away with her rules? Rules that make her the ultimate Sex Snob
Angie J's Review:
I received this book from the authors for an honest review.
Holy hell was this book a riot. I am a preschool teacher so I do alot of reading while the kids take their 2 hours nap. OMG I was cracking up so often I would wake up the kids near me.....oooopppss!!! So be warned, this is funny. I really tell people that if they have read Tara Sivec's Seduction and Snacks...they will LOVE this book!!! The humor is just wrong on so many levels but I cracked up non the less......
Now I did read Pieces of Perfect before reading Sex Snob and I will say you don't have to read the first book. Lily (the main character from book 1) is in it but her back story is pretty non existent in this book. Now with that stated, I gotta tell you about Amanda. She was hurt very badly but a jerk of a boyfriend. It left Amanda guarded and basically refusing to let anyone in. She is good for some hot sex but if you don't fit into her mold "of the right man" she will let you go. Well she hates her boss and thinks of fun ways to kill him (my favorite was to cut his brake lines and then casually mentions getting everyone coffee when she returns).
She does manage to work out a few nights a week at a gym but really cannot stand the person who runs her class. Her and Shane have a love hate relationship. The banter between them is sooooooo hilarious. Seriously when she tells him his idea of a good night out is LSD and Duct tape...fun for you but not so fun for the lady.....I almost peed my pants!!! Well another trainer is having a birthday and Shane asks if Amanda will go. She agrees and ends up having some fun with SHANE...what!! Can't be!!! He is a dud and poor....Well the two continue to have this amazingly hot chemistry. Every scene with them gets hotter and hotter. I was screaming....KISSSSSSSSS PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well let me tell you that first kiss is *gulps ice tea* SIZZLING!!! But damn Amanda and her freaking RULES stops things from progressing. She freaks and tries to hide out....but it doesnt work very well.......She keeps denying her attraction to Shane because of her damn RULES!!! Well Shane defo pursues her but then kinda backs off and plays it cool until one night at the bar. When he admits his feelings she just spews venom at him and he is devistated. I will say I was SCREAMING at her by this point.
OMG I cannot forgot the sex in the book....holy hells bells. It was awesome. The chemistry between the characters is just thick. The sex is hot and hard but also was intimate and very caring. I love Shane and how he knew what Amanda wanted through the whole book.
Well after she realizes she needs to clear her head and she heads to visit her mom, i was cracking up......The ending scene with her and Shane was sweet and totally perfect for them. The epilogue is through Lily's eyes (it is preparing us fir the sequel to Pieces of Perfect.....) and i have to admit I loved this scene 110%. I think it really shows the true relationship between Shane and Amanda. I was extremely happy with the end sand look forward to more of them in Pieces part 2........
Chapter 8: Dance with Hot Rod
I
stood in front of Rod, my back to his muscled chest. I began to move,
finding my rhythm with the sweet voice that floated through the bar. Rod
moved closer to me, but didn’t put his hands on me. He just moved with
me, rocking his pelvis into my ass as the music infiltrated every fiber
of me. His proximity was intoxicating and I felt the cool moisture of my
arousal seep from my body. We were close, but I craved him to be
closer. I reached behind myself and placed my hands on his thighs,
gathering a bit of his jeans and pulling him into me. Finally, his hands
found my hips and clamped down, as if anchoring me to him. I dipped
slightly, arching my back and lifting my ass so that it rose between his
legs. And as I made contact with his erection, my nipples hardened and
the dull ache in my lower abdomen grew stronger. Oh, I need this.
Rod’s
hands drifted down my body. His palms pressed into me as they lowered
to my stomach, then down to my thighs as he hitched me beneath him and
his upper body hovered over me, causing me to lean forward, giving him
greater access to my ass. As he ground against me, I tilted my neck. He
took full advantage, running his tongue up and down the soft skin,
sending tingles throughout my entire body. My hands reached over my head
and behind me, finding his hair. I fisted my hands in the unruly
strands, pulling his head even farther into my neck. His tongue ran
along my jaw, up to my ear, and back down my neck where he kissed and
sucked at my flesh. I suddenly wished I had worn a skirt instead of my
tight jeans and silk blouse. If I had been, I’m fairly certain I would
have hitched it up right there and allowed him to take me amongst all of
those other bodies. Public sex had never been so appealing.
And
that was the thought that cooled me off a little. We were in public, in
direct violation of Rule Number 3. I had always made exceptions to this
rule in the past for dirty dancing. It was the one time that I felt
warranted sexual touching in public. But what Rod and I were doing was
getting dangerously close to copulation. As my mind reeled, Rod turned
me to face him. And that’s what killed it completely. I was instantly
consumed with the thought that this wasn’t the face I wanted to be
seeing right then. It wasn’t the face that I wanted to be doing this
with. So, as the song ended, I leaned into Rod. “Thanks for the dance,” I
said before walking back to my table.
Elizabeth
Hayley is actually “Elizabeth” and “Hayley,” two friends who love
reading romance novels to obsessive levels. This mutual love prompted
them to put their English degrees to good use by penning their own. The
product is Pieces of Perfect, their debut novel. They learned a
ton about one another through the process, like how they clearly share a
brain and have a persistent need to text each other constantly (much to
their husbands' chagrin). They are currently getting ready to release Sex Snob, a novel centered around Lily’s roommate Amanda, and have also begun writing the sequel to Pieces of Perfect.
“Elizabeth” lives with her husband, one and a half year old daughter and nutjob of a dog. “Hayley” lives with her husband and her own crazy dog. They are about to adopt a newborn son in November. Elizabeth Hayley's writing motto is best captured by the words of Patrick Dennis: “I always start with a clean piece of paper and a dirty mind.”
