It's Tag Crane's job to be the life of the
party. Traveling from one exotic locale to another is just part of running the
luxurious Crane Hotel empire. But even paradise isn't perfect. Devising a new business
strategy is keeping Tag up at night-and so is the Great Dane barking at all
hours in the apartment below his. To muzzle the problem, Tag charges downstairs
. . . right into the most beautiful, blond distraction he's ever seen.
Dog-sitting by day, bartending by night. It's
not exactly the life Rachel Foster dreamed of. But when Tag Crane rushes in,
all mountain-man shoulders and obscenely sexy smile, needing her help for the
Crane Hotels, it's a fantasy come true. What's the harm in a fun no-strings
fling? Only a fool would give her heart to a billionaire player like Tag-until
suddenly the one man who can't be caught is the one flirting with forever . . .

Excerpt
“Why is it you look like you’re
thinking something sinister?” he asked, that eyebrow arcing higher. “And don’t
lie to me, Dimples. I have a sixth sense.” She watched his slow smile, white
teeth appearing as his trimmed beard parted. Her nether regions buzzed like she’d
sat on a vibrating phone.
“I’m surprised . . .” she
started, feeling daring. Must be the Kona coffee.
“Because?”
“Because I expected you to
induct me into the Mile High Club by now. This is my first private flight.” She
looked at him through her lashes, her coy smile in place.
Tag wore an all-out grin, which made her inordinately pleased. Where she was concerned, he wasn’t immune. And she liked that. A lot.

“Excuse me.” Smoothly, he shut
his laptop, stood, and walked from cabin to cockpit.
Okay. That was interesting. She
hadn’t expected him to leave. Maybe she didn’t have the same power over him as
he had over her.
She turned to look out the
window, but the nighttime landscape was nothing but blackness. She imagined a
sea of clouds and blue skies once the sun rose, anticipating being someplace
where the high was above freezing. She wondered what the temperature was on—
“Let’s go.” Her hand was
snatched a moment later as Tag pulled her out of her seat and led her to the
bedroom.
“Wait,” she said through her
laughter as she hustled after him. “What are you doing?”
In the bedroom, he released her,
closed the door, and whipped off his shirt. She gasped, her eyes eating up his tanned
muscles and bulky arms.
“Making you a member.” He caught
the back of her head in his hand and kissed her. She melted beneath his touch.
She was hopelessly attracted to him. Just an absolute goner.
When she caught a breath of air,
she said, “Where did you go?”
“Told the pilot to take the long
way.”
“There’s a longer way to
Hawaii?”
“There is now.”
Review
Tag Crane has the good life, never really wanted for nothing. His long hair, beard, bulging biceps and charming personality have women falling at his feet hoping to catching the playboy billionaire. However, he's the love 'em and leave 'em kind of guy and just the word wedding will have him running away.
Rachel Foster is starting over, again, after the breakup of her long-term relationship and quitting her job. A chance opportunity has her dog-sitting for one of her regular costumers at the bar she works. This could be the break she needs to earn a little extra money and finally be able to afford a new place to live, leaving with her friends has been nice but she's looking forward to living alone and gaining some independence.
Due to Rachel's late nights, the dog she's sitting has been barking more than normal and drawing the attention of her upstairs neighbor. When he comes a knocking, the two find it hard to stay away from each other. Sexual tension rises until it combusts and feelings start to develop. But can the playboy who never thought he'd settle down, actually settle down with the one woman that enraptures him like no other?
Oh my goodness.... Tag Crane is one delicious specimen of a man. Sure he'd got the good looks and deep pockets, but it's his heart and compassion that tug at your heartstrings. He's sweet and tender, just like a giant teddy bear. But when needed, he'll protect you with every fiber of his body. It's hard not to love the total package.
I loved Rachel's independent nature, not wanting to depend on a guy after having been burned before. The way she stands up for herself is endearing to say the least. And boy does she know how to push Tag's button with her sassy attitude and witty comebacks. Her strong passion and fierce loyalty make her force to be reckon with.
I really loved this book, once I picked it up I couldn't put down. I love the way Jessica tells a story is sensational and invades your imagination, she has become one of my favorite authors to reads. This series feature strong heroes and even stronger heroines and I can't wait to read the next book, The Bastard Billionaire.
