Wow! Having read so many books by Alexis Alvarez, I am always expecting scorching heat and a heart stopping battle of wills between the hero and heroine that culminates in a blinding passion and all consuming love. What I didn’t expect was Boston to speak to me on such a personal level. Not only does Alexis introduce us intimately into the world of a quirky romance novelist and stunning fitness model, she shows us the depths of insecurities that a person can have and how much we might not understand what they are. She brings life to the old adage “until you walk a mile in another person’s shoes” and a whole dimension of sexy to the romance writing world. Parker and Abby boil over with sexual tension, bring tears to your eyes with their sincerity and depths of feeling for one another, and create a slow burn inside the reader that threatens to consume!
Abby is an up and coming romance novelist with a brilliant idea that is sure to make her the next best selling author. The only problem is that it puts her in close proximity to the most yummy looking book cover model/photographer and his “gorgeous and perfect in every way” ex girlfriend each and every day. She finds herself fighting a throbbing need for Parker and an intense insecurity and jealousy against the lovely and beautiful ex. Abby is a kindred spirit that I liked from the moment she was introduced. I love her quirky sense of humor and quick wit, add in her spicy imagination and I couldn’t help but love her. Alexis gave life to a character that resonates with many females who often feel like we can’t live up to the “ideal perfect size woman” and let’s us know that an intelligence and big heart can be just as sexy as perfect measurements.
Parker Minelli is a renowned health nut, fitness model, and now photographer that spends his days around beautiful woman in erotic poses. When the feisty and intelligent writer offers him a piece of the monetary pie in her new endeavor, he knows that he can’t say no. What he doesn’t expect is for his body and heart to want to say yes to this beautiful, intellectual woman who writes about smoldering passion and compromising positions. I couldn’t help but fall for this buff, equally intelligent, muscled package of yumminess and his Boston accent. Parker is passionate about his work and is so much more than just a pretty face and well toned body.
Alexis Alvarez delivers a romance that not only brings the heat but has depth and crawls right into your soul and bares insecurities that everyone has. No matter how perfect or put together a person seems on the outside or how intelligent they are, we all compare ourselves to others and find ourselves lacking. Alexis’s writing is passionate and profound and gives the reader so much more than sexy scenes. I highly recommend Boston for a romance that will light more than a spark of desire within the reader’s heart. Parker and Abby bring us into the “romance world” and keeps us gasping for air, flushed, and in awe of their magic together!
Woah! Ok, this is one sexy and well-written book. I loved how beautifully the narrative threads were woven together and how artfully the characters were created and developed; I really felt a sense of connection with them by the end, and was so emotionally invested in the outcome. And there were some properly steamy scenes, too. A fabulous read!
