AMAZING...Loved this book and loved everything about it, I can't wait for more from this author.
4 star

Feels too similar to so many erotica novels of the time. The authors own interpretation of her own Fifty Shades novel. Hot and on fire with an ok storyline.

Although I generally don’t like the idea of guilty pleasure books – from where I’m sitting, if you’re reading, who cares what it is?! – I can’t ever seem to stop myself from feeling a little guilty about the occasional erotic romance I pick up. I feel about them the same way I do about ready meals – I feel like I should want to pick up something more nutritious, more healthy, less processed and yet some days, I just want to eat the ready meal (actually this isn’t a great analogy because I frequently want to eat the ready meal and only occasionally get drawn in by the erotic romance, but the idea is the same).

I pretty much knew when I decided to start A Taste of You that it would be very formulaic – insecure woman meets rich, mysterious, secretive man, and the two get involved in a controlling relationship which alternates between awesome sex and terrible communication. I know the stories are often repetitve, but I just can’t help but pick one up every now and again, and A Taste of You definitely follows that basic formula.

It thrilled me to think that this man wanted me. It made me feel sexy and powerful, even though I was completely at his mercy.

Cat Kelley is interesting: she has hobbies, passions, friends. She has a history. She’s had relationships – successful relationships – before she ever meets William Lambourne, so she sees the red flags just as we do, instead of being totally naive. William Lambourne fits the same mould as Christian Grey etc, although we get to see a little bit of personality shine through towards the end of the book which I liked. Their will-they-won’t-they relationship kept me engrossed, even though some of Cat’s moments of insecurity did make me want to shake her occasionally. Their back stories are both interesting, the sex-scenes are steamy, and the food descriptions both in and out of the kitchen are evocative, adding an extra dimension to help A Taste of You stand out.

A Taste Of You delivers exactly what you expect and I flew through it in a couple of days. It was enjoyable enough, but even with the cliffhanger ending (which sadly, I thought was very predictable!), I probably won’t be reading the sequel unless I can find it at the library.

I absolutely adored this story. It was a well written fun and sexy read. I inhaled it in one sitting.

I loved the main characters Catherine and William. Catherine has moved to Chicago for a fresh start. William is a sexy billionaire who wants Catherine. Will he succeed?

Love all the talk about food yummy.

Looking forward to reading more of this series.

A Taste of You, is absolutely hot! I enjoyed this story probably way too much, lol. The characters , William and Cat had such great chemistry on paper. Sensual, sexual and too good to put down.

(I forgot to send my review in from the time I reviewed it)

DNF.....this book wasn't for me. I won't be formally reviewing or rating this book. It has nothing to do with the author or writing, I just couldn't connect with the story.

William and Cat are from two different worlds. William, a rich and very handsome jetsetter. Cat, a widower who has left her hometown to begin anew. While Catherine is leaving a pre-photo shoot, she literally runs into William while picking up her dropped camera. Every time Catherine believes William is warming up and will share more of his life with her, he closes down once again. The one thing they have in common is the death of close family.

Unfortunately, the storyline is not unique. Billionaire CEO falls for confused "I'm not good enough" girl. Girl has a close best friend who is gay and helps her coordinate her wardrobe.

The book moved along rather well but predictable. I will probably read book 2 as this one ended with a cliff hanger!

I received a complimentary e-book from NetGalley and Premiere Digital Publishing for my honest review.
