Racy Romance Review: I have read one other Burton book, Riding Wild, a year ago. I bought it at a bookstore adjacent to campus while in the middle of the most grueling 3 day interview I have ever experienced, and recall feeling terrified that one of my potential future employers would see me with it (I’ve gotten more mature about this since I started blogging). That enjoyable book got me through one of those long sleepless nights and I made a note to read another one by this author someday.
