REVIEW - THE DESIRE by Karen Deen


Remington is in Rome spending Christmas with his boss and family, but Nic is more than just a boss he is one of Remington's best friends. When Nic insisted that he, Forrest and Flynn spend it with him and his fiance he couldn't say no. Since his parents spent the holiday with his sister and and her kids he tried to find anywhere else to be during the holidays. Screaming kids was something he avoided at all costs.

As the group is breaking up Nic asks him to escort Tori's best friend Elouise to her room. Despite it being one of Nic's resorts it is what he does as head of security. Making sure everyone is safe.

Eloise is still getting used to being around these gorgeous billionaires since her best friend fell in love. This is not the life she grew up in and no matter how accepting they are she still feels like she doesn't belong. Everyone sees her as the quiet teacher, but she is determined to be bold for once and have a one-night stand and she makes Remington promise that none of their friends will ever find out.

I loved this book! It is very well written and the characters are fully developed and relatable. It doesn't state that this book is part of a series, but this is a continuing series from Nic and Tori's story, The Craving. I haven't read their story, but it is now in my TBR pile.

Remington is the head of security of a billion-dollar hotel chain and keeping everyone safe is more than a job to him. When the stress builds up and he feels like he is losing control Remington is an adrenaline junkie. He picks the most terrifying thing he can find and lets the fear reset his brain. 

Eloise is a teacher. She loves children and helping them learn to read and write. Since Tori got engaged, Nic and his friends have welcomed her into their tight group although she still doesn't feel comfortable in their expensive lifestyle.

This book is action-packed and smoking hot. This story has several back-stories with Tori's wedding and a major scandal, but Remington gets the biggest shock of his life and his answer to relieving the stress is a huge surprise.

This book will make you laugh, make you cry and steam up your Kindle. This book can be read as a standalone, but I recommend that you read Nic and Tori's story and I can't wait to read Flynn's story. 

Highly recommend!
