“Victoria Ashley sucks you in on page one; trust me, you won’t be able to put this steamy, gripping story down until you’ve consumed it all in one sitting.” -Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author, Ilsa Madden-MillsSex Material… It’s what I’m known around town for.A rock-hard body, covered in tattoos with a sizeable bulge that women spend their nights fantasizing about. Women track me down, … about.
Women track me down, needing someone that will take them rough without holding back.
They find me because they need a distraction from reality. They need something to get their mind off of the boyfriend who screwed them over or the job promotion they got passed over on at work.
Sometimes it’s just because they need someone reckless in the bedroom before settling down with the right one.
‘Cause I’m not that guy.
Nowhere close.
I’m not the suit wearing, flower-buying guy you take home to meet the parents. I’m not the guy who will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Not anymore.
I was boyfriend material once. Would’ve even made a good husband. Until one night changed everything.
These women come to me because they need an escape to cope with the real world, but none of them know I need it more than them. I need something to make me feel alive. Something to get my heart beating again.
Then Cami shows up in my hometown, broken-hearted and pissed off at the world, needing an escape from her cheating ex.
She’s the only one that doesn’t want to use my body. In fact, she wants nothing to do with it and has no problems telling me so.
She’s interested in one thing only from me—to move into my rental property. But the problem with that is the more we fight, the deeper she buries herself in my soul.
Sex material is what I’m good at, but for the first time, it may not be enough.

Get ready to fall in love with the bad boy. Jensen is one of a kind and bad bay personified. Hotness oozes off every delicious inch of him. There are so many levels to this man that in the end you will not only have the hots for him but your heart will melt for him as well.
Cami is a school teacher, molding little kids minds and loving it. She is living the dream or at least she thinks she is. Sharing a home with her boyfriend Douglas who is also a teacher. Their lives are nothing exciting but they are steady and Cami is content. That is until her world is blown apart and she finds herself smack dab in front of Jensen. She hates him and his foul mouth but she needs his help so she sucks it up and pushes forward with her ultimate goal in mind.
I loved this book. I fell for Jensen and his bad boy persona because just like Cami I could see more there. It is smoking hot, full of sexy conversations as well as tender love and heartfelt compassion. I received an early copy to read and review and give my honest opinion. I loved it! I highly recommend it! And I cannot wait for this audio of this book to come out. It will be pantie melting for sure.
4.5 stars.
Jenson, owner of Blake rentals, is known around town as been the guy you go to when you want to forget, the guy who will rock your world for one night and has no intentions of ever getting in a relationship. With a steady supply of women on tap and an aversion towards commitment, its working well for him….Until Cami turns up.
Cami has just gotten out of a relationship and the last thing she wants to be doing is jumping into bed with the guy she’s hoping to rent from. Even though he is insanely hot and attractive, his first impression leaves a lot to be desired. She could possibly be the only woman that isn’t interested in using Jenson for his body and skills in the bedroom. Her would be landlord is a jerk and the two of them together is a recipe for disaster if their first interactions are anything to go by. Jenson seems to go out of his way to rub Cami up the wrong way which I loved because the back and forth just adds to the chemistry that’s between them.
One thing you can guarantee when reading a Victoria Ashley book is that the chemistry between the characters will be off the charts and Sex Material was no different. There’s so much sexual tension in this book I was begging Cami and Jenson to just give in to it already. The constant back and forth between Cami and Jenson adds a love/hate feel to it which I love in a book.
5 STAR Review by Jodi for Ruby Red Romance Review
I have to stand and applaud Victoria Ashley! This book was EVERYTHING and so, so much more. Victoria has a knack for writing about hot, sexy alpha’s. Jensen was no exception to that. Good lord was he just what I needed. It’s been a minute since I’ve read a book that kept me wanting more like this one did.
Cami, goodness. She and Jensen couldn’t be more opposite, but lord does he make her forget all her problems. I loved that he was willing and able to help…pun intended. While Jensen is a complete douche for some of this story, it was fun watching his walls crumble as he fell. I was fun watching Cami find exactly what she needed.
I loved this story from start to finish and I know you will also. Please check it out. Victoria Ashley does not write a story that I don’t love, but I have to say…this might be my favorite!
I am such a huge fan of this author and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this book! It was everything I wanted and more. Jensen is a workaholic, manwhore and major a$$hole. He has built to companies and believes he deserves everything he has. Then there is Cami who has wasted five years on a liar and a cheating D-bag. When she moves on and rents a place next to her friend the landlord is Jensen. Sparks fly and the chemistry is intense. Cami says that whatever is on her mind especially when she has a little bit of wine these times really cracked me up. She is sassy and feisty when she hits her stride that combined with the bossy and dirty talking Jensen makes for a fantastic read.
I loved, loved, loved this book. Victoria has done it again with this hot alpha story between Jensen and Cami. The instant attraction between these two is so hot and the great lengths they go through to deny that attraction will blow you away. I couldn’t put this book down and its a must read for anyone who likes a sexy, hot, arrogant alpha males 🙂
Jensen is one sexy alpha a$$hole and Cami doesn’t put up with his shit. They have intense relationship from the start. But it was so damn hot. I couldn’t put this book down.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
Sex Matrial…It’s what I’m known around town for. A rock-hard body, covered in tattoos with a sizable bulge that women spend their nights fantasizing about. Women track me down, needing someone that will fuck them rough without holding back. They find me because they need a distraction from reality. They need something to get their mind off of the boyfriend who screwed them over or the job promotion they got passed over on at work. Sometimes it is because they need someone reckless in the bedroom before settling down with the right one. Cause I’m sure not that guy. Nowhere close. I’m not the suit wearing, flower-buying guy you take home to meet the parents. I’m not the one who will make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Not anymore. I was boyfriend material once. Would’ve even made a good husband. That was before everything good in my world got ripped away, leaving me broken beyond repair. These women come at me because they need an escape to cope with the real world, but none of them know I need it more than them. I need something to make me feel alive. Something to get my heart beating again. Then Cami shows up in my hometown, broken-hearted and pissed off at the world, needing an escape from her cheating ex. She’s the only one that doesn’t want to use my body. In fact she wants nothing to do with it and has not problems telling me so. She’s interested in one thing only from me-to move into my rental property. But the problem with that is the more we fight, the deeper she buries herself in my soul. Sex material is what I’m good at but for the first time, it may not be enough.
I loved every single second of this book. It it hot and steamy and oh how I love the mouth on Jenson. I swear I want a Jensen of my very own. This book will suck you in from page one and have you reading non stop till the end. I loved Cami and I loved Jensen. Cami is a school teacher who is dating a fellow teacher and catches him kissing in his school room one of their coworkers that he swore was nothing to him. This leads her to move out and stay with her best friend who just happens to live in a rental that Jenson owns and has one available next door. This story has twist and turns and stolen moments and I swear at times it will melt your kindle. I loved every single second of this book and that I got to spend with these characters. This will forever be one of my favorite Victoria Ashley books!!!!
I loved this standalone book. Cami and Jensen have some mighty sexual tension going on throughout the book. They don’t care for each other, but you just know that they will be explosive. Jensen is a bit of an @$$. But, Cami doesn’t let him get away with anything. Dual point of view. No cliffhanger. Awesome storyline.
Rcvd an ARC at no cost to author..So I kind of went back in forth with this one, sometimes I was like I really like this book, and then I would ask myself isn’t he too much of a jerk? Don’t me wrong I like alpha jerks to a point and Jansen sometimes went overboard but reading his thoughts help a lot because we saw that he was struggling with his jerkiness. Cami, loved her, she was not a wimp she fought back and the most important thing for me was that she did not give Douglas her cheating a chance not even a little, good for you. I liked the build up, Cami not being able to resist Jansen even though she fought it and Jansen not being able to leave Cami alone even though he knew she was too good for him. I adored Val her friend and I liked that she knew they was much more to Jansen since she knew him for a while she knew there was still some good to him even though she did admit he was an asshole. Glad I read, glad they got their HEA and hope we get a story about Ben.OOOh the only thing I kind of wished was that she made Jansen grovel a little more for his behavior after she found Katherine’s pills, she was too lenient even though he explained to me that wasn’t a good enough reason.
Victoria is back and she has brought a cocky arrogant, jerk along with her. Sex Material is an excellent read, especially if your like alpha males, then this book will definitely be right up your street. Exceptionally written by one of my favourite authors, to this date is have not been disappointed with a story from Victoria, she really has mastered that art of giving her readers a damaged hero and spunky heroine. Jumping for joy that I got to read this book!
Sex Material aka Jensen Blake is just that wrapped up in one gorgeous male specimen that you just want to lick. He knows how to work his body and has resigned himself that he is destined to live his life with women only wanting him for one thing. He is rude, short tempered and you only get one chance with him, if you break his rules then it bye bye immediately. He wasn’t always like this, but peoples pasts ha a tendency to screw up their future and Jensen really believes he needs to suffer and and does not deserve someone to be happy with. I really pulls a t your heart strings, once you get past the point of wanting to throttle him. If you look close enough you can see the pain swimming in his eyes, but most people are too busy trying to get what they want from him.
Enter Cami, she is definitely not looking for that one thing from Jensen. Her heart has been through the wringer and Jensen has heartache written all over him. In fact Cami can’t stand Jensen. His attitude towards her really gets her hackles rising and burrows right under her skin. Cami doesn’t back down when he is rude or intimidating in fact she fires it right back at him, unfortunately for both it just makes them that much more attractive to each other.
This book has explosive chemistry from the first to the last page, these characters bounce right of each other it is fantastic to read and you will not be disappointed, give Jensen and Cami a chance to weave their way under your skin!
JENSEN BLAKE….HOT….HOT…..HOT….
First, let’s just put this out there as a fact of life…Jensen Blake is quite possibly, the cockiest, most alpha, dirtiest talking, sexiest character, ever written, and I want to read about some more just like him…..
Hot, Angry, Businessman/Manwhore/A$$hole, Jensen Blake, and Strong, Feisty, And Just Caught Her Boyfriend of 5 Years Cheating With a Fellow Schoolteacher, Camille (Cami) Reynolds, meet when she demands he rent one of his houses to her….And from that point on, they alternately “hate” each other and can’t keep their hands off each other….
I loved SEX MATERIAL….Good book, Victoria A. Ashley….
Sex Material is written by the amazing author Victoria Ashley and is an enemies to lovers romance kind of book. This is the story of Jensen and Cami. This book has everything; sexy hot alpha bad boy, a sassy school teacher, drama and a HEA steamy romance. Will Jensen and Cami find love and a HEA in each others arms?? To find out you need to buy and read this sizzling story!!
I recommend this and any of Victoria’s stories.
Not the story I was expecting ~ it was so much more! I love when a book surprises you and this one did just that. Jenson was so cocky ~ I freakin’ loved it. I liked that Cami was a challenge for him, I enjoyed her feistiness and the fact that she didn’t always fit the expected “teacher mold”. This book was the perfect balance of sexy, funny and the right amount of angst.
P.S. I Benny…
Love this book!!
I loved this story.
From the beginning you can see that Jensen is a guy who takes his work and deadlines very seriously. He is a womanizer, not committing to any woman. But all this attitude is due to a tragedy of his past.
Cami is a teacher and has a five-year relationship, but when she gets her boyfriend cheating on her, she immediately goes to her best friend’s house, which happens to be next door to one of Jensen’s homes, which he is renovating.
When Cami goes to the house to ask Jensen to rent it to her, the attraction between them is immediate, but the situation is not so adequate and they don’t get along very well.
Throughout the story, while Cami tries to resist the attraction she feels for Jensen, he also tries to deny the feelings that are emerging, since he believes he doesn’t deserve to be happy.
The interactions between them are great, just like Jensen and Benny. The ending made me extremely happy.
I loved the story and the characters and I highly recommend the reading.
Like all of Ashley books Jensen is a cocky alpha ahole. Who ends up being soft and squishy on the inside for his girl. I completely loved this book. Cami is the girl next door kinda person. Who doesn’t take Jensen carp or tries to get him in to bed. That’s what makes her irresistible to him. She fights the good fight. They both have a sad story tell, but it all comes together.
It’s clear that Author Victoria Ashley knows what it takes to write a hot, steamy and oh so damned addicting book!
Jenson Blake would have had me running for hills for sure but than again maybe not, I wish I was in Cami’s shoes! He’s hot and sexy and knows how to use it to his advantage but what he wasn’t ready for was Cami Reynolds to storm into his life!
Will Jenson and Cami find themselves in each other’s arms or will Jenson be an a**hole before it even begins?
Holy Hotness!!Jenson is the owner of Blake’s Construction & Blake’s Rentals and is know by some of his renters as “sex material” due to his extracurricular activities despite his better judgment. Cami is a 4th grade teacher that just broke it off with her boyfriend of five years & needs a new place to live. When these two meet she can’t stand him and he can’t stop thinking about tormenting her. Can she really stay away from her new sexy, cocky jerk of a landlord or will his behavior break her? An Jenson stop acting like an A@? Long enough to forgive himself for the past and finally move forward? This was a great enemies to lovers story! You are going to live Jenson & Cami; Told in dual POV
I loved this book! Jensen and Cami are hot AF and I needed a few days to recover from the heat! Once I started this book, I couldn’t put it down! I don’t even know what to say that won’t give anything away. Victoria Ashley has wrote another amazing couple who I instantly fell in love with!
I don’t even know where to start. From the first moment I started reading Victoria Ashley’s work, I knew I was hooked. Her men are all alpha but have this inner good guy that’s just begging to be released even though they don’t know it. Jensen was no exception. With his tough exterior and walls a mile high around his heart, he has this unbelievably soft side that hides behind it all. So when Cami storms into his life he’s prepared to treat her like he does everyone else but she’s not like everyone else and he soon discovers this woman might just be the one to peel back all those layers.
After a horrible breakup that becomes the gossip of the town, Cami is set on moving on with her life and getting a fresh start but unfortunately for her, she’ll have to deal with her new landlord that’s known throughout the town as the bad boy. Even though she can’t stop staring at the sexy man himself, Cami knows no good can ever come of messing with a heartbreaker like Jensen especially when he’s determined to test her boundaries and make her feel things she has no business feeling.
Jensen oozes sex appeal and Cami definitely notices.
These two together made the pages melt!! They push each other and drive each other insane but man do they have a connection that is hot enough to explode!!
Victoria Ashley brought me back to the reason I fell in love with her words. I felt the depth and connection to the characters and the plot was perfect. The writing consumed me and I loved every minute of it.
I stayed up late into the night needing to finish this book.
Definitely one of my new favorites by this author and I’m excited to see what’s coming next!!!!!
