Richard Martin had spent his life trying to be a good man, ever noble and honest . He loved his wife, with a passion, and had never strayed from his vows. However, the bonds of marriage and family are such savoury things for a man with a sweet tooth and for the first time, his eyes were straying towards their babysitter. Young and beautiful, Rebecca was a vision of temptation, and never was anything so sweet as the forbidden fruits of temptation...
This is the first volume in Dark Inferno's sizzling new series Sweet Temptations.
Claires Review 4 of 5 Stars
This was a very well written short story which the author did amazingly to fit in so much detail and description of everything, that in itself gave this the 4 stars as its not an easy feat to fit such a large amount of description into so few pages. However I do not think I have disliked a main character as much in any book before! Cheating is present in plenty of books, but there is always a stated reason for the betrayal i.e an unhappy marriage etc which doesn't make it right but shows some explanation for the actions. From what is stated there is nothing wrong with the main characters relationship and he loves his wife and has a happy marriage, so the reason for him to behave the way he does shocked me and made me automatically dislike him as a character, especially when his wife was waiting for him downstairs. I also felt there was a lot of questions left unanswered for example he was in the flat above the one he shared with his wife, did she hear them? would he continue the affair? I would be interested in reading the next installment in the hope that these questions may be answered.
