She's the woman he loves to hate.

Penn Foster wants a lot of things. She wants a spot on the board of a charitable foundation. She wants to win the stupid, plastic family trophy. And more than anything, she wants her tall, hot, and brooding boss naked in her bed. Now, on a Hawaiian vacation with her family, she's desperately trying not to think about how he'd sound whispering dirty things in her ear.

He's the man she can't have...or can she?

Cole Murphy keeps himself locked down, away from the press and out of the spotlight. Still haunted by a traumatic childhood, his ability to trust has been decimated. Penn, with her sexy body and confidence, is the only person able to drag him out of his shell. Which is why he crashes her vacation and accepts her proposition for no-strings sex. But is the inescapable heat building between them a delicious temptation, or will it end in total disaster?

Kassiah: The Madewood Brothers series is one of my favorite series, and I really loved the previous books. I’ve been waiting for Penn and Cole’s story ever since Recipe for Satisfaction came out. I didn’t like this one as much as the other books in the series, but no matter–it’s still hot, and I still Gina Gordon.

If you’ve read anything else by Gina Gordon, you know that she writes insanely hot scenes filled with chemistry that will make you combust, and Recipe for Temptaion is no different. Cole and Penn are ultra-hot together. The story was entertaining and fast-paced, but I wanted more from them. Maybe it’s because I had built up what was going to happen with them so much in my mind, I just didn’t expect them to come across as so normal. Like I said, they’re hot. He’s a great dirty-talker, and you’ll definitely be satisfied after reading this. It just wasn’t my favorite.
