BOOK SPOTLIGHT: Real Temptation by Marcia King-Gamble
Unlikely bedfellows with nothing in common… except a burning desire.

Can shopaholic, Rae and no-nonsense, Kael share the same living space?
$100,000 is the deal maker. But is the reality television show's reward more tempting than their sensual encounters?
Encounters that leave them wanting more...much more

Genevieve L’ Esperance is a graphic artist living a good life. When her Visa expires she finds she can’t return to her homeland. Her friend Barry suggests they marry and he hides her away in Harlem until his divorce is final. Barry wants more than a marriage of convenience and Genevieve isn't ready for that type of commitment. As she dodges the INS, she tries to figure out another way to fix her dilemma.
Genevieve meets the law student, Dexter Gray sharing the other room on the floor. They both feel the attraction between them, but decided to keep it platonic.
Dexter has his own dilemma; he needs funds to finish his law degree. Genevieve still needs a husband, and she proposes a deal that changes their relationship forever.
I enjoyed reading Save The Best For Last. It was fun watching Genevieve and Dexter fall for each other. Genevieve fought the attraction, but Dexter let the feelings flow. Even though he was a struggling law student, he didn’t let that stop the romantic in him. I also liked he always ate his dessert first. As a person who is known to eat dessert first, I could relate.
Ms. Griffin has written a story that every romance reader will enjoy. You’ll find yourself turning the pages quickly to see what’s in store for Genevieve and Dexter.

This is a story about two individuals who grew up in two different environments and somehow managed to fall in love. They both came from two-parent homes that were on opposite ends of life’s spectrum.
Professor Sheri Stephens had a not-so-normal childhood that impacted her love life. She never saw her parents touch, let along kiss or be intimate in anyway. She knew her parents loved her, but this was based on her academic achievements only and not on their affections. In her heart she knew this was not what she wanted or longed for in a relationship. Consequently, she hadn’t given a relationship much thought until she met a stranger on a cruise ship.
This stranger was Dr. Dalton Wright who grew up in a loving, caring environment where he saw his parents caress and show affections each day of his life. He knew this was what he wanted in a relationship. Somehow his paths crossed with Sheri Stephens and he showed her how to love.

This is the first book I’ve read by Kim Shaw and to say the least, it won’t be the last. I loved “Lift Me Higher”. Monte Lewis is every woman’s dream man. I fell in love with his character. He loved and respected all the women in his life. This included his ailing Mom, deceased wife and his newly acquired love, Torie Taylor. And to top it off he loved and cared for his two well-mannered sons. After his wife’s death, he swore to never love again until he was smitten by Torie, who also swore to never love again based on her last relationship. Once the two met, they threw passion to the wind. A must read for all romantics.
