Eskimo Princess Review Blog: Afraid to Love by MJ Nightingale Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway

SYNOPSIS

Learning to trust again is the hardest thing to do.

Ana Perrot is crazy. Crazy about sex, and pleasing her lovers. She is passionate and as fiery as her red hair. She eats men like air. She is also willing to submit to any man anywhere. But outside of the bedroom, Ana is an independent woman who lives her own life by her own rules. And, her biggest rule . . . she won’t do long term relationships. She refuses to fall in love . . . again.

Teddy O’Rourke is an easy going, laid back Tampa bartender at one of the most popular clubs in town. All about family and enjoying life including all the women that throw themselves at his feet, he has no problems finding willing partners. His football player body, his personality, his warm hazel eyes all ooze sex appeal. He is the perfect package in every way for a woman like Ana, well for any woman really. An ex-cop, his instincts tell him Ana is one hell of a woman, but she is wounded and scarred by the past. What are her secrets? What will make her trust him? Why is she so afraid to love?

A one night stand, that is full of surprises for Teddy, opens his eyes to new possibilities. A single man enjoying his freedom meets his match in the bedroom, and elsewhere. He sees a future with Ana, a counselor for troubled youth. But could she be persuaded to fall . . . and to trust again?

Review by Angela

Afraid to Love is about Ana Perrot and Teddy O’Rourke. Ana is a beautiful, caring, strong and successful woman. She doesn’t depend on anyone and only counts on herself. She doesn’t like to be told what to do, well everywhere but the bedroom that is. She takes care of herself but when she is in a man’s arms she likes to submit. She gives herself over to her lover and lets him take the reins. Will she be able to let Teddy take charge of her body and her heart? Will the past she tries so hard to hide be her downfall?

Teddy is a hot, sexy, former cop turned bartender. He isn’t lacking on female attention but he likes to be a little choosey with the women he brings home. He really isn’t looking for anything permanent until a certain red head barrels her way into his arms and his heart. Will he ever be able to break down the walls that Ana has constructed around her heart? Will he ever be able to convince her that he is all she needs?

Oh my, this book is sizzling. The sex scenes are off the charts and Teddy is a very blessed man, if you know what I mean. ;) He has no problem falling into the dominant roll and loves just how submissive Ana can be. I thought that the book flow was great, the plot was very emotional, and the romance was just that, totally romantic. Teddy really is a great book boyfriend. Ana is a strong heroine who can stand on her own two feet. I would actually like to read more about these two. I didn’t find but a few editing issues, but nothing that took away from the reading of the book. I like reading MJ Nightingale’s Afraid to Love so I will have to go back and read Fire in his Eyes so I can get the story about Monica and Victor, since it parallels the time line of this book.

If you like to read about kink, this book would definitely be one that you will not want to miss out on. It is kinky and emotional, just try it out and see for yourself!
