Review: The Blackstone Affair # 1: Naked

Naked (The Blackstone Affair, #1)Naked by Raine Miller

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Naked by Raine Miller is a romance involving two people with traumatic pasts who almost instantly fall for each other so intensely it is surreal.

I would like to say a HUGE thank you to Raine Miller for my introduction to Ethan Blackstone AKA David Gandy. He is the epitome of classic, gorgeous, aplha male. Having such a gorgeous visual in the back of my mind while reading is very enjoyable.

Brynne is fragile but capable and has been doing just fine with her life until Ethan. He awakens more than just lust and longing in her, the strength of the emotions he evokes trigger the return of her nightmares. But even with the night terrors, she has never felt more safe or loved. Ethan is the perfect match for her needs.

Ethan has a few secrets of his own. He is former Special Forces and has the scars to prove it. Brynne has seen the scars but has decided not to enquire about them just yet, she has her own secrets and understands the need to not share.

I think my favorite quote from this book is...
"He's far too beautiful to have to resort to his hand for an orgasm."

The fact that we learn he overheard her and Benny saying that...I laughed my behind off!
"I heard what you and Clarkson said, by the way-about me and my hand." He tapped his ear. "High-tech security gadgets in my line of work."

I noticed this on my re-read and it made me think of the third book so i decided to add this to the review...
"The intimacy was off the charts and I could not have looked away if I'd wanted to. I needed my eyes wide open."

  1. I also couldnt help but giggle at the fact that Ethan heard Brynne and Benny's comment about his hand!!! I loved the fact that I could read the accents the characters had, and how playful they were with eachother and the word arse ;)
