Synopsis:

Laila Prescott couldn't get away from Paradise Island fast enough after breaking up with sexy PI Matthew Hardin two years ago. Now her brother is missing and Laila is back on Matthew's doorstep, desperately seeking his help.

Matthew never did get over the feisty redhead, so he agrees to take the case, but on his own terms. Laila will pay cash, meet all expenses…and give him unfettered access to her voluptuous body.

Is Matthew up to his old tricks or is he a changed man looking to tie himself to Laila for good? Laila's body tells her to surrender to Matthew's hard loving but experience tells her that she must resist with all her might.
 


 

SRR GRADE: B+
 

Laila Prescott’s brother Bobby is missing and do find him she finds herself in the last place she thought she’d ever be:  her ex, Matthew Hardin’s front door. She needs the best to find Bobby and Matthew is the best. His terms? A daily fee, expenses and unrestricted access to her body.

Laila’s Bargain by Reese Gabriel is an intriguing read, it has it all a mystery, hot sex and characters that fight their feelings for each other while giving into their physical attraction. While the story does contain some light bondage and discipline it is nothing that would shock the average reader of erotica. The action scenes lack sufficient tension and you never feel that either the hero or heroine is in serious danger from the villains. The resolution of the missing brother is anticlimactic, but the resolution of the romance is more satisfying.
