Lipstick On His Collar starts out very sultry and sexy right off the bat.  There’s nothing wrong with sexy and sultry, I like that, but I need substance and emotional connection in my erotic romance so I felt a little twinge of disappointment.  But then I remembered how much I’ve enjoyed this author’s past works and the interesting relationships she creates within her erotic stories so I continued on.

Lady and Bram meet one hot summer night and the chemistry is instant and hot!  Lady is clearly looking for a night of adventure and passion but nothing more.  Bram is completely taken by Lady and fully willing to oblige her.  However there is just something about her that makes him want more from her.  He is determined to keep her and she is determined to move on even though she feels the same connection as Bram does.  Bram wakes the next morning to an empty bed and the feeling that Lady could have been much more than just a one night stand.

There’s more to Lady than just a woman looking for a one-time steamy tryst.  She has just recently broken up with her weird, stalker-type boyfriend.  Being with Bram is her way of reclaiming her independence and reminding herself she is a sexy, desirable woman.  Just one night, then move on and get on with her life.  But her ex-boyfriend is determined to have her no matter what.

When Bram and Lady have a chance meeting five months later the heat and chemistry they stirred in each other is instantly reignited.  They come together for a some very sexy laundromat lovin’ but the ex-boyfriend is stalking Lady and confronts them in a jealous fit.  Bram wants to protect Lady but she needs to make a stand as well.

As I said, this novella started out on a very sexy note.  But what I really liked is how Inez Kelley reigned in the sex and allowed her characters to gradually seduce each other.  It was mutually agreed between Bram and Lady that they would be spending the night together so there was no question as to where their brief relationship was heading, but I found it very sexy in how these two characters created a slow sensual build-up to their night of passion.  I found both characters very likable with enough depth to become invested in their budding relationship.

My only complaint is with how the conflict the with ex-boyfriend  is resolved.  It’s all wrapped up fairly quickly at the end and I would have preferred a little more from that angle of the story.  He was an effective villain, I definitely got the ‘creep’ factor from him but the ending was just too rushed.

Lipstick On His Collar is another scorching hot romance from Inez Kelley.  This short novella packs a lot of sensual punch with sexy, likable characters and a story that is entertaining from beginning to end.

    What’s the best way to put this? Let’s see, I found something that may interest you. My days are filled with many hours on the internet, searching for ways to make money, checking the weather (of course), posting on forums and things of that nature. On one of the forums that I visit, I found a system and some software that can change things up quite a bit. Let’s face it, if I can make money with this software, so can you. It says that there is no experience required and even though I do have some experience, the simplicity is a big plus. You don’t have to worry about trying to figure out a complicated software because the instructions are very easy to follow. The software works very well for me and I am sure that it could work great for you as well. You can even get it at a discount price by following these instructions. When you go to the sales page listed below, don’t order from that page. Instead, just close the window and it will try to make you stay for a different offer. I think is does that 1 or 2 times before you get to the page that offers the discount! (Just keep hitting ‘cancel’ until you get the discount page). Here is how the package is advertised: The Instant Cash Empire money making system is for people who are looking for an easier way to make money online. Get push button cash sites in just 2 minutes! It not only generates a network of websites for you, but it will also give your network of sites ALL the traffic they could possibly ever need. The software will get your newly created, push button cash websites free traffic. When you join, you will receive instant access to an automated software that will create your very own “instant cash empire” web network of sites working for you 24/7 to generate cash even while you sleep. With Instant Cash Empire you do not need to master every technical skill before you are able to see REAL results. So if you are looking for a way to make money online and you are all for automation, or you just don’t want to have to create your money websites yourself, or you don’t want to take the time or spend the money to get traffic to your websites, you might want to check out the Instant Cash Empire push button method for generating income.
