James is wise beyond her 18 years. She grew up in front of the camera and is quickly becoming the top actress in Hollywood. She also recently went through her first heartbreak in the public’s eye. One evening, she is out with her best friend when she meets a man, Brett, who is the first one since her break up to make her feel desirable again. With the sparks blazing between her and Brett is so intense, she can’t help but agree to go home with him.
As an agent for the who’s who of Hollywood, Brett knows James’ age but has always found her incredibly attractive. Since he’s only in town on business, he allows himself to pursue her for one night only. No regrets, no strings. When he returns to Miami, thousands of miles from LA and James, Brett finds it difficult to cut ties with James when she reaches out to him. However, things quickly turn from hot to not for the pair when James is caught up in a very public scandal. Can Brett help her redeem herself personally and professionally?
This book was a great read! I wasn’t sure how James’ character would be with her young age but she was very mature for 18 so the age difference between her and Brett wasn’t a factor for me. I follow the gossip of Hollywood so this book plays out the way I could see things going in real life for the rich and famous. The smoking hot chemistry between Brett and James was captured very well by the author. Great story about friendship, love and the stress of being in the film industry and all that comes with it. This story is told from both Brett and James’ POV which made the story that much more whole for me. If you like a great story with lots of sexiness, you don’t want to miss this one!
Devilishly dirty and sinfully delicious!

Things are never what they appear to be!
What made the story so sexy and unique was the off the charts chemistry between Brett and James and their refreshing openness!

Little did James Ryne know that one night stand would be the only person who can save her floundering career, coming face to face with him and finding out who he is might be a bigger shock than the thing that took her down.

Then that one night showed up in his office begging for him to help her.
Follow Brett and James as they navigate a working relationship while trying to ignore their lust for each other.
I love this author, I devour her books which is the only explanation for me reading this one. The Hollywood story line is generally a no go for me but seeing as it was a Marni Mann book I had to give it a shot and I’m glad I did. Signed is a great read, it’s fast paced and loaded with heat!
You’d be a fool not to take her on
Because she’s 18, nubile, beautiful, talented, Americas sweetheart-James Ryne. Her career is on the climb. Big Brand ads, endorsements, fashion houses vying for her attention. She’s the proverbial Cinderella having the ball of her life …….and then the clock strikes 12 !!!
The shoe slips and her crown is gone, her glitter is gone, her carriage is gone, her Prince is gone and she’s in tatters, hiding under her clothes in the back of her closet.
How did this all happen ? Read the book to find out !!
It’s a quick, steamy,sexy read. I devoured it fast, but honestly I love marni for her previous books more. But this delectable morsel will tide you over till her next read
Enjoy!
Ok how have I not read a Marni Mann book before like for real this was such a good read loved everything about it I just know I’ll be reading more by this author in the future . I’m usually not a fan of Hollywood industry reads but something about this drew me in and I’m happy that I gave it a chance I was hooked from the first page and when I reached the end I was sad but with how it ended had me silly smiling while also clapping my hands together in a crowed room but people are used to my actions when I read a good book soooooo . One thing that really turns me off for the Hollywood genre is the over top drama but Signed didn’t have that the couple were straight forward yes there were some bumps but they were understandable and resolved quickly . Flipping loved James yes she’s eighteen but very mature for her age she’s sassy , funny , strong , and beautiful my heart really hurt for this girl that scene were everything hits the fan made me feel anger , sadness , sympathy , and a need to find the guilty party . Oh my gosh Brett just writing that mans names down has me in need of a cold shower because WOW what a silver tongued devil he’s fire HOT , good at his job , swoon worthy once he got his head out of his … and the epilogue queue butterfly’s in stomach three two one . The secondary characters are just as lovable as the hero and heroine fingers crossed that we get more from them like Eve and Max (WINK ) . I can’t wait to read more by Marni Mann she wrote such an amazing read that it’s one of my top reads of the year ( I know it’s only the start of the year but I have strong feeling it’s going to stay on my top ten ) .

There is nothing that grabs my attention more from a book than age difference and when the guy is a little a**h*le… there is something SEXY about them.
Brett compromised with his work and only his work, he follows the said “don’t s*it where you eat” and even more after he found out what the Sweet James did, he feels betrayed and tries to forget everything that happened between James and him, but when a certain actress begs him to get signed with his company he will find himself torn between his ethic or his feelings. He perfectly knows the industry and should know the best for both, but mainly for James.
James is the American sweetheart with a bright future ahead of her but one thing leads to another and now she finds herself alone and begging the sexy-liar to take her to help her to get everything back.
She knows that having Brett besides her everything will get back to normal, she knows she can trust him, even when he lied to her but right now there is no one else she trusts more than him, and he will prove to her she didn’t make another mistake.
Both characters are great, even when James is young and in a bad situation, she knows what she want and is willing to fight to get her promised perfect future back and include certain sweet/rude man; and Brett is willing to give up what he really wants for what he thinks is the right thing to do and loved how he managed their situation, he is the perfect (hard-rude) gentleman we all are looking for.
I seriously would love to know more about Jame and Brett, and not only them 🙂
I have been a HUGE Marni Mann fan from the Unblocked series and honestly I can’t get enough of her words. Whether she writes contemporary erotica or dark and twisted mindeffs, her stories alway have the most perfect combination of a sexy alpha male, a strong and sassy woman and a storyline that will rock your socks off. I loved James and Brett. Omg were they perfect. I love that it was lust at first sight because honestly you just felt it. You felt the steam coming right off the pages and you just wanted these two people to get together. I loved their connection and the fact that they could not deny it even when they both didn’t want it. But there was just something about one another! I honestly could not get enough!
GAH!!!! I absolutely FLOVED Signed. It was EVERYTHING. It was taboo and compelling and so damn erotic. It also had the typical Marni Mann panty melting smoldering heat but was also emotional and gripping. Brett was so protective and strong and everything James needed in her life that she didn’t have. He was her shelter when her life became so stormy and tumultuous. And the sexy times? Good Lord does this author deliver. She delivers and then some and kills us in the process. So effing SCORCHING!
This book honestly felt like a Hollywood blockbuster that Brett would be trying to win for his clients. It had secrets and lies and was so full of sex and drama that I had no choice but to read it in one sitting. I absolutely loved this story and SERIOUSLY can not wait for more Marnie Mann kindle crack. Her books are so addicting and amazing that you can’t help but want more ASAP! Bravo! 5 stars! ~Ratula
