That was. Wow.

It's the story of Isabel. Her friend Gillian enters her in a magazine contest and Isabel wins the grand prize, going to Paris, Rome, Cairo, and the Bahamas as well as getting a make over and being the Cover Girl. She's a cake decorator, very controlled and buttoned up, always with a plan or itinerary.

Then there's Kash. She's a world famous photographer who's also quite the play girl, and who gets drafted by her friend, the Publisher of the magazine to do the photos.

Of course, because this is a romance the two characters find that they're drawn to each other. But Kash's past and hang ups get in the way quite a bit.

It was an intense book. Is there such a thing as a sex thriller, because that's how it felt while reading it. Every chapter, every scene was like a thriller, but instead of action each of the words even were filled with sex. It was different and cool.

I also liked that it wasn't as straightforward a lesbian romance as some that I've read. Ihad a niggling of doubt at times over whether Kash and Isabel would end up together. And that made this a cool and different sort of novel. ( )
