Netgalley ARC Review - Big Easy Temptation (The Perfect Gentlemen 3) by Shayla Black and Lexi Blake!



BLURB:

The New York Times bestselling authors of the Masters of Ménage series present the third scintillating novel featuring the privileged, wealthy, wild men of Creighton Academy—the Perfect Gentlemen.

Years ago, Naval officer Dax Spencer and NCIS agent Holland Kirk indulged in a steamy affair—until she betrayed him in the wake of his father’s death. Dax tried to put her behind him with a payback of his own. But he never forgot Holland…

Now, as Dax and his fellow Perfect Gentlemen unravel a web of lies, he discovers his family’s tragedy is part of a much larger conspiracy. Soon, all clues point him back to New Orleans…where Holland waits, protecting her deadly secret and holding a torch for the only man she’s ever loved.

Once reunited, they can’t fight the passion flaring hot and wild. But something sinister lurks around every corner, from the elegance of the Garden district to the beauty of the bayou. Dax and Holland may find their way back to each other—if they survive...
 


MY REVIEW:

Big Easy Temptation is the third book in Shayla Black and Lexi Blake's phenomenal Perfect Gentlemen Series. A little more intense, a little more suspense, a lot more twists, turns, and one more piece to the puzzle that has haunted the Perfect Gentlemen since the first book and since their friend, Mad's, death. I love how things are escalating with the mystery that surrounds all of them. Danger seems to follow each one of them as they see what lays in the shadows and why everything seems to be pointing to the most important of the Gentlemen.  

Dax...wow! I fell in absolute LOVE with Dax and Holland from the VERY start of the story. I adored Holland and her tough as nails attitude. She is one of those heroines that don't come along too often, that is just as strong, smart, and truly equal to her man. Dax, well, he was a charmer and a sweetheart. Sexy, lethal, smart, he and Holland fit together like two puzzle pieces. 

Miss Black and Miss Blake are an incredible writing duo that put together a series that will intrigue a reader and drag them into stories filled with love, lust, danger, and a friendship that will defy everything, including the secrets that may get them all killed. Whats not to L-O-V-E about that?  Big Easy Temptation gets a HEART-THUMPING FIVE SHOOTING STARS! I was amazed at where the story took us and it stole my breath when I realized where it was leading us. Damn, this book was SO. GOOD. Nail-biting action, sizzling chemistry, a lifetime friendship...in other words, a PERFECT read!
