Samantha Hunter's ABOUT LA

Miranda Carter needs to jump-start her love life. Or make that jump sexy Colin Jacobs. Her best buddy is the perfect man, but the studious prof needs some...encouragement. Like one uninhibited night in her bedroom - lingerie, toys and all! Colin is aching the next day, and the amnesia he's got from the bump on his head isn't helping. He and Miranda had a fantasy evening - uh, didn't they? So why can't he recall undressing such a sexy woman, or kissing every inch of her delectable body? So he'll just have to show up for a second night, and a third...and hope that this time it will be unforgettable for both of them.

The old 'amnesia' line is one I usually find hard to believe, but Samantha Hunter pulls it off exceptionally well in this entertaining story. I found myself immediately drawn in by her wonderful characters. Hunter's writng flows easily, and heavier moments are balanced with touches of humor, making this a feel-good, readable story. The developing relationship between Colin and Miranda is complemented with a lovely sub-plot in the friends-and-lovers theme between two of their friends. Like all the Blaze line, there is a strong sensual element, but for me was in the emotional journey from friend to lover that kept me turning pages till the early hours. A definite 'keeper'.
