Cut off from the outside world, the lives of these two strangers collide and burn with desire when stranded in the perfect storm. Both are content with the idea of sharing a glorious one-night stand together, that is, until they go their separate ways.
" ~From Goodreads


The plot is interesting, with uptight and burned Stephanie hooking up with Jason, who's been burned in his end too, for one night of no string attached fun. And then the next morning comes and the storm passes and it's not quite so easy to keep away after all.

This was a good book, I enjoyed it, it lacked some depth that would have upped the score a little, but in all a book worth reading. I liked the whole idea of being marooned in a hotel without electricity for the night and making the most of it.

Jason was very determined, but had a touch of kindness to him leaving the choices to Stephanie who let her hair down and celebrated her divorce with a hunky guy she was to never see again. They were a good match, but lacked that extra something in their chemistry.

The cover is way hotter than the story, there were love scenes there and they were good but they also were missing something. I almost gave this 2.5 stars but it had some really good redeeming qualities like the plot, and the ending and the fact that Stephanie was keeping secrets.

You'll like this if... you fancy the idea of meeting someone in a middle of the storm and creating fireworks, or if you like your characters unable to keep away from each other!
