The Red by Tiffany Reisz is amazing! I was lucky to receive an advanced copy from Netgalley and I am so grateful, I really did enjoy this one. I will admit I picked this book because I absolutely loved the cover, this is the first time I am so glad to judge a book by its Amazing cover.
This book is extremely steamy so if you don't want to spend one night reading a steamy romance novel start this book in the morning and just call out of work! This book also has an amazing appeal to those who love art, so if art and smutt is your cup of tea make a whole pot and enjoy.
Mona Lisa St. James is a young woman who makes a death bed promise to her mother to make sure she does anything she can to keep The Red open, the red being an art gallery that is failing. As Mona is contemplating how she can stretch what funds she has...She see a man standing in the Gallery looking at a small painting with a discerning eye...He is quite the vision himself... Masculine, robust and impressive... a quiet strength which became impossible to ignore the moment he looked directly at Mona. She greeted him as if he was just another man who had an interest in art... This was nothing new...only the electricity in the air was startling and caused Mona to regard this stranger more carefully.... The beautiful stranger speaks with Mona gives her a few subtle complements then gives her a proposition she can't refuse. He asks her to be his whore for a full year. Ms. Reisz does a beautiful job with her words and chapter format, where each chapter is named after a piece of art that is beautifully described, what I loved was that each painting was also a hint of the sexual adventures that Mona will experience.
I don't want to ruin this book for anyone so all I will say is that this is a lighthearted read the sexual scenes are nothing run of the mill, but I hope that this review encourages you to give this book a chance because my heads up isn't to make anyone run but to be prepared for the unexpected! 5 red Stars from me!
