Review: The Manhattanites # 1: Undressed

Undressed (The Manhattanites, #1)Undressed by Avery Aster

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Undressed by Avery Aster...

Oh my, where do I begin...
Um, Holy Freaking Hell...I can't say I wasn't warned...
The level of detail and intensity is ridiculously hot! Phew!


Okay - So, there are different types of romance novels, we all know that, but I think I can categorize within contemporary romance just another step further. You have your standard, real-life, real situation, bittersweet romance novels and then you have your bright shining stars full of billionaires, models, fame, fortune and, in this case, an Italian prince and a fashion designer.

Prince Massimo Tittoni and Lex Easton make one helluva hot combo. I don't think I've ever spent so much time looking up words, definitions, and, um, positions before in my life. I mean I really had no idea half of that was even possible. Wow!

Lex is passionate, stubborn, and demanding and makes no apologies for it. Massimo (the Prince, not the vibrator) is a beautiful male specimen that just cannot resist this beautiful New Yorker.

The sex scenes are off the chain. I had no idea one woman could climax quite so many times or so forcefully. Am I missing out or is it just that hot to read about? Okay, it's definitely that hot.

As far as the story line goes, I wasn't even a fifth of the way in and I was almost in tears over Lex's predicament and the conversation at the dinner table her first night in Italy. These sassy, independent characters were wrote in a way that endears them to you. Of course later on, especially at the underground party, I just had so many moments where my jaw dropped in shock, and then I had to go online and see if such things were even possible. Turns out...yeah!

Definitely moving on to the next book in The Manhattanites series, Unscrupulous.


"You may call me Lex, not Bella. This isn't Twilight." She didn't care for paranormal.
