French Kiss is part two of the Unbearable Passion series. It continues right after the ending of Never Say Never, the first book in the series.

Amanda/Sophia is off to Paris "The City of Love" with Bryce on a business trip.  Bryce has paid for Sophia some obscene amount of money to help him pursue a new business transaction with the french and needs her expertise on the language.  Bryce is very impressed with Sophia's abilities as a business woman and is amazed that someone as bright and professional as her is making a living as an escort.  He cannot understand why someone like Sophia is doing what she is doing and trying to understand it all and get to the bottom of it and help her.  But will Sophia allow Bryce to do that?!?! Sophia is having the time of her life as Bryce has purchased new outfits and lingerie for her.  Outside the business side of things Bryce is showing Sophia a different side and allowing her in to see a more personal side.  The Amanda side in her is trying to think logic and trying to say to herself she cannot fall in love with a client but the Sophia side has fallen head of over heals in love with Bryce...  Bryce runs into someone unexpectedly in Paris from his past and gives Sophia second thoughts on the time she has spent with Bryce in Paris.  What will happen between the two???

The story continues on nice and smoothly from part one and I am just enjoying the love developing between the two of them and chemistry is just amazing.  The sex scenes are hot and steamy as the first book.  I am still loving that both characters still have so much dignity and Scarlett has done yet another amazing job!!!

Five stars aren't enough to show how exciting Rachel Dylans new legal thriller is! This is much more exciting than mainstream fiction offers as the protagonist is a Christian with ethics one is hard-pressed to find in todays business world. The writing style, the breathtaking suspense, and characters whose vivid honesty is refreshing and makes the novel even more appealing.

Kate Sullivan is a partner at the prosecutorial law firm she joined after three years of working as a defense attorney. She believes she is doing what she was meant to, defending the rights of those who don't otherwise have a voice. She has been named as lead counsel for a huge, multi-firm lawsuit against. MPC  Mason Pharmaceutical Corporation with regards to its migraine drug, Celix, considered the cause for cancerous brain tumors that killed thousands while many more are suffering. It is believed that the pharmaceutical company knew about the deadly side effect before it was released.

Ethan Black is a defense attorney who went to law school with Kate. He recently acquired MPCs account for the firm he is a partner at and is their attorney for the case. These two friends are now pitted against each other in a lawsuit that is going to call on everything within them to win. Kate is a Christian, and chooses to be honest and upright in her dealings. Not just because she doesnt want to get into trouble, but because it is who she is.

When Kate meets Ellie Proctor, a senior Research and Development scientist at MPC, the woman is nervous. Very nervous, very paranoid that if she were seen with Kate that the consequences could be dire. She suggests that Kate request copies of testing documents not only for Celix but other drugs by MPC. Two days later, hours before Kate is scheduled to meet her on neutral ground, Ellie is killed in the parking garage of MPC, and the security tapes indicate a probable professional hit. Not a robbery gone bad, but a hit. Thus, Kate prepares for the trial of her life.

Kate is the kind of hero I appreciate. She is intelligent, kind, wise, and hard-working. She is a woman of faith, yet one who has a secret from even her closest friends, one that I empathize with. This reader really wants to appreciate Ethan, as well, but cant quite get there, especially as the trial prep continues. The PI Kate hires for help on the case, Landon James, is in some ways a mystery man. When it comes to business, however, he goes above and beyond searching out leads and people, including bringing in security experts for her protection.

The plot could be taken from todays headlines. It is written with skill, weaving in legal definitions and proceedings that readers may not be familiar with. Twists in the novel altered who looked guilty time and again, and this reader began to feel bad for Eric, as lead defense attorney. I did guess what MPC was trying to accomplish, but didn't know who the real bad guy/ gal might be  and it was a complete surprise who was  and wasn't  involved! I highly recommend this novel to those who enjoy suspense and legal thrillers with a Christian worldview, or even those who are seeking a clean read with a minimal violence.

From a grateful heart: I won a copy of this novel by the author with no obligation to provide a review. This is my honest review.

Monique Reese Myron is a sensational human being and a brilliant professional whom I was blessed to have been instructed by her in Denver for her Market Smarter Not Harder class years ago. I purchased another copy of this same book because my other book has been used for 20 years.  Highly Recommend this and Her Real-Time Marketing for Business Growth book.

When you see a 12 year old girl write her own music and lyrics, play to a huge crowd at Caesers Palace in Las Vegas and make enough money to start her own record company and produce her first album all by herself, you are witnessing something very special.

Anna's voice and song writing skills are amazing. She plays the piano like a professional. She can also play the guitar.

She is beautiful and has a bubbly personality that makes you want to just hug her.

If you listen to this album and watch her music videos you will be watching the birth of a superstar.

America's Got Talent got it wrong but that didn't stop Anna from becoming a star.

Good luck young lady. You deserve every good thing that comes your way.

Most people who enjoy rich, vibrant music, poetry, and emotions would agree that Carly Simon is extremely talented, creative, and insightful to a level that few -very few- can dream to achieve. Her anxiety fear to perform in public have prevented her from achieving a level of success that could  have matched the greatest sellers of all time.
Boys in the Trees is a ratification of what an incredible woman Carly is. She is personal and courageous. She explores, like very few of us could, her fears and motivations behind every major development in her life, she does not hide anything, and she becomes very vulnerable in doing do.
Besides the intrinsic interest her life represents, anyone who loves good writing and who enjoys human psychology will be delighted with this book.
It is hard for me to understand any bad review of this book. I am convinced that at least some of the non-stellar reviews were written by people who have felt offended by their mention in this book. I would tell this people to follow Carly's example and accept their past failures and shortages as Carly has done. They will become stronger if they do.

I don't know where I got the impression that Bebe Daniels was a diva, but I was wrong.  Mr. Epting not only goes into impressive detail about Bebe's life, he writes the book as though her knew her personally and well.  She's a great example of tenacity and spirit and she lived her life with integrity under extraordinarily challenging and potentially debasing circumstances.  I'm so glad I got this wonderful book and learned more about this amazing woman.  As an added bonus, we get a historical look into the fascinating and exciting world of early movie-making.

Love watching her rise above her humiliating experiences in her private life to kick ass in the legal world.

Wow!  What an inspirational and amazing story!  Lisa's experience fighting for equality and fairness in a business world where unfortunately gender bias still very much exists should be a "must read" for all business leaders and executives.  She stood up for what she believed and had the courage to fight for equality.  I praise Lisa for being a role model and for telling her story.  It is through people like Lisa taking action that lasting change will result.  Her battle in the courts was won, but this touching book leaves you believing that it was a victory for all women who face the challenges of gender bias in their own careers.

Sofia has just lost her very successful business after her business partner lied and cheated leaving her with nothing. With creditors screaming for their money, Sofia is left no choice but to accept when the opportunity to become a high class escort presents itself.

Going by the name Amanda Hardy, Sofia stresses over her first night as an escort but is relieved when her first client turns out to be the incredibly sexy Billionaire Bryce Van Der Linden. While having an escort on his arm is nothing new for Bryce, meeting Amanda for the first time seems to stir something within the cool and confident businessman. Booking Amanda for back to back nights so no-one else has a chance to be with her, Bryce enjoys getting to know her mind and body.

Bryce is a strong and dominant man who likes to control every aspect of their relationship (he is paying for it after all ;) ) and Amanda, aka Sofia is trying desperately to keep business and pleasure separate in her mind as she navigates through the world of being an escort. This first book really sets the scene for the rest of the series and although quick to read it kept me entertained the whole way through. It doesn't have a big cliffhanger ending but it does leave you wanting more. With plenty of steamy sex & some dirty talk from Bryce thrown in, I couldn't put this one down :)

How encouraging Bebe's story is. She turned her so called need for antidepressants into a challenge rather then a discouragement. She refused the pills and used her great personal skills to help people, in business, who don't always know the right questions to ask when designing a website. Rather than feeling sorry for herself, she powered through the depression and worked her way into a successful business that she has full control of.  What a fun and well written story!

I had the pleasure to meet Melissa Evans even before I read her book, and was blown away by her passionate energy and genuine enthusiasm for life.  She radiates confidence, competence, and caring for others.  Then I read her book, and was delighted by the stories, insights, and practical business concepts she shares.  It's no accident she became a millionaire by age 31. She not only lives the dream, but shares how you can too.  This is a great book for yourself, or to inspire someone you care about.

As my Senator and as our First Lady I knew how hard working and studious she is, but still her level of diplomacy, competence and her class act are stunningly impressive even after all these years of exposure.  I would love to read the hundreds of pages of edits too.  My eyes filled with tears while reading her vivid descriptions of several subjects in various chapters.  We need more public servants like this one.  A true role model and a rare heroine.

I met Debra at a book signing.  She is beautiful and intelligent and I knew that I was going to read a great book. Sure enough, I could not put it down. I would not have been near strong enough to go through what she did and I admire her very much.  Book was well written and so inspirational. Had the pleasure to sit with her after and discuss the book and I am happy to say she is my friend. I feel blessed to read this book and know her!

Mrs. Penny Power is an experienced, professional, talented personality in the field of "E-commerce, Sociology, Behavioral Science and Business Management".

She possesses extra ordinary abilities which mostly God gifted by nature but some people feel it and describe inside. To write about her, means you've to be ready to write a book but I'll try my best to effort to mention about her characteristics as short as I can.

She's the expert in the fields of "e-commerce, Information & Technology, e-Teaching and Seminars, Business Management, Social and Human Behavioral Science expert, Modernized the e-business with respectful way of e-marketing and management and a lot as she can do everything in the world if she once take it as the aim of her life".

I never met her personally but I read about her, listen her on videos, and I easily imagine about her that what kind of gems she possesses. Her remarkable step in the history of "Human Psychology + Social Media" is the "formation or to provide a healthy platform to the humans of Earth to gather, to know, to understand, each other's views, visions, thoughts, cultural exchanges, business views & peoples introduction etc in the name of ECADEMY and by her hardship, proved as the Fundamental of Social Science as I evaluated since last one year."

And she didn't stop to create ecademy, she continuously giving everyday something to the human in the shape of "Books, Lectures, Videos, Blogs, Seminars and all means of Communication", and I hereby must add my opinion that she's lucky that she possess the Husband like "Thomas and Children" those fully involved and coordinate with ecademy and the subject which created "The Power of Future Social Media" and we see everyday some new changes.

Her name must be on the top lady of United Kingdoms due to their extra ordinary services to the society and global way to push up and motive to the new Generation to do something different.
