Kassiah: You might think that Getting Off by Abby Green is just another standard one-night stand kinda story, but you’d be wrong. Sure, you’re expecting steamy smexy times and a “relationship” that goes a bit deeper than just a random one-time hookup. And you get that.
That, and so much more.
Caitlin Ryan is no virgin, but she’s never had an orgasm, not even the self-induced kind. So when she meets sexy tattooed Liam, she’s not surprised when their night of passion fizzles out for her. But, he is.
“You could have fooled me, in fact you almost did. I’m not so arrogant to think I can make a woman come every time, but that’s definitely the most convincing fake orgasm I’ve ever witnessed.”
Not wanting to face her “issue,” she sends him away, sort of hoping to never see him again. She runs into him when she’s looking for a job, and he offers her one at his bar. They agree to not mix business with pleasure, but you know how that goes. They can’t stay away from each other.
“You’re the one who came in here. You kissed me.
…
His mouth twisted. “If I hadn’t, the whole place would have exploded with the tension between us.”
Both Caitlin and Liam are determined not to get involved. But how long can they hold out before giving in to the force that’s pulling them together?
I liked this story and these characters, especially Liam. He was cocky and handsome, and he said “fecking.” (Which reminds me it’s time for a re-read of Volition.)
There were a few things I didn’t like (the overuse of the word moist and the fact that her clitoris keeps “vibrating” comes to mind), but overall this was a fun story. It was hot, but had meaning. I really loved the characters and would definitely be down for more happenings at Sullivan’s bar.
