Privileged, wealthy, and wild: they are the Perfect Gentlemen of Creighton Academy. But the threat of a scandal has one of them employing his most deceptive—and seductive—talents…

Recruited into the CIA at a young age, Connor Sparks knows how dirty the world can be. Only when he’s with his friends can he find some peace. So when an anonymous journalist threatens one of the Perfect Gentlemen, Connor vows to take down the person behind the computer, by whatever means necessary—even if it means posing as his target’s bodyguard.

Publishing a tabloid revealing Washington’s most subversive scandals has earned Lara Armstrong the ire of the political scene—and a slew of death threats.  To keep herself from ending up a headline, Lara hires a bodyguard, a man as handsome as he is lethal.

When the bullets start to fly, Lara is surprised to find herself in Connor’s arms. But as they begin to unravel a mystery that just might bring down the White House, Lara is devastated when she discovers Connor’s true identity—and finds herself at the mercy of forces who will stop at nothing to advance their deadly agenda.

My Review:

Seduction in Session is the second book in the Perfect Gentleman series by the amazing duo of Shayla Black and Lexi Blake.  I am a huge fan of both of these authors and devoured the first book in this new series so I was eager to get my hands on this latest installment.  Well, talk about one hell of a ride!  This book was phenomenal.

Connor Sparks only knew one family: his brothers in the Perfect Gentlemen.  They weren’t his brothers by blood but that had never mattered.  He loved them as though they were and the bond he shared with them helped form the man, and CIA operative he was today.  Those ties also led him to the problem, and woman, he was dealing with now.  The undercover political blogger was threatening one of his brothers and there was no way he would stand for that. What better way to get close to her and stop her than to pose as her bodyguard? Now he just needed to keep his heart as safe as he was keeping her…

Never did Lara Anderson think her blog would put her very life in danger.  But after some bullets with her name on them almost reached their target, she had been convinced otherwise.  Luckily a close friend had sent a body-guard her way and now she would be kept safe. Or would she? Danger was becoming more and more prevalent and so was her attraction to her brooding and gruff protector.

Two total opposites attract as danger and scandal reach a fevered pitch.  Will they have what it takes to make it out alive and turn the attraction they’ve found into something real, even though it started out with lies?

There is seriously so much to love about this book, I don’t even know where to begin! From the very start I was emotionally invested in Connor and his story.  The boy he had been broke my heart.  The man he now was had me in awe.  I just loved him.  He is loyal and fights for the right in the world while hiding in the shadows and never letting anyone in to know the real him.  I loved his strength and ferocity in which he stands by his friends. He also has a pretty dry sense of humor that had me barking out a few laughs during his internal dialog.  He certainly wasn’t a man looking for love.  Especially not in the woman he was trying to stop.  Too bad the guy didn’t stand the chance against Lara.  She was opposite him in almost every way but was also very much the same in others.  She also wanted to take a stand for what she believes in and what she thinks is right. She’s quirky and down right lovable.

The push and pull between them was delicious and I knew when they eventually got together it would be ridiculously hot.  And, oh boy, was it ever! These two are scorching hot and burned up the pages.  Beyond that, when they both finally let their defenses down, and let the truths sink in, it was amazing and the emotion was incredible.

Of course, add the whole mystery still surrounding the Russian mob and a deranged stalker, and this was one hell of an amazing package!  I seriously ignored all responsibilities and read it in one sitting.  It was THAT good.

Thank you Ms. Black and Ms. Blake, for one hell of a read!  I cannot wait to continue with this series and see what’s in store for the next Perfect Gentleman!

Five Loves

Excerpt:

“What belongs to me? Be specific. I want the words.”

“My pussy belongs to you. I belong to you. No matter what I do, I know I belong to you. I love you. I love you so much, Connor.” She poured her heart into those words, willing him to believe her.

“And I belong to you. No matter what I fucking do. You remember that. You take those words and memorize them because no matter what happens, they’re true and they’re going to stay true. I won’t let you take them back. Ever.”

She wouldn’t want to. “I love you.”

“That means everything to me, princess.” He withdrew his fingers and gripped her hips. She felt his erection probe between her thighs. “I’ve never wanted anything the way I want you. Remember that, too.”

She couldn’t reply because the head of his cock breached her in one hard thrust. He didn’t ease into her or give her time to adjust. He gave her every inch he had, holding her hips and forcing himself inside her. She was invaded and dominated. He controlled and conquered. A shock of tingles rolled through her body. She whimpered.

“Push back against me,” he commanded.

She thrust back and tossed her head at the feel of him sliding in to the hilt. It was almost too much. He held himself steady, and his left hand slid up to her breasts. He shoved the bra above her mounds and cupped her as he pulled out and stroked back in. He thumbed her nipple then gave it a twist.

“Never again, Lara. I swear to god if you lie to me again, I won’t be responsible for what I do to you. I’ll tie you to the bed and I won’t ever let you leave again. Your whole life will be about taking my cock. You won’t see the fucking outside world. You’ll spend every day on your back and your knees and any other way that pleases me.”

She found him endlessly amusing when he was angry. Somehow she couldn’t see him actually turning her into a sex slave, but she was sure in the moment it seemed like a viable option to him.

He twisted her nipple again, and a pleasurable pain shimmered through her. She responded before he could do it again. “Yes, Connor. I won’t see the light of day. I understand.”

“I’ll chain you to me, Lara.” He anchored his hands back on her hips as he thrust in and out of her body in rough, rhythmic strokes. “I won’t let you leave my sight. Fuck, you feel so good.”

She let her head fall back, giving over to the euphoria of having Connor inside her. He was so big. When he filled her, she always had a moment when she wasn’t sure she could handle it, but she ached to try. And once she succeeded in accommodating every inch of him . . . She groaned. There was nothing like it. There was certainly no one like him.

He caressed every bit of her skin that he could reach, her breasts and her belly, the curves of her waist and hips, before he found her clitoris again and strummed it—fucking her with force all the while.

Lara pressed back against him. If she hadn’t, the strength of his thrusts would have sent her headfirst into the wall. Still, he didn’t hold back. He simply picked up the pace and she moved with him. The push and pull of his strokes formed a rhythm she sank into. Over and over his cock sank deep before he dragged back out, sensitizing her flesh and drawing her to the edge.

She groaned as he toyed with her clitoris in earnest now.

“I can’t hold out. You feel so good. You’re so hot and tight around me. Come for me, princess.”
