A
dedicated scientist, Laura Manning has an I.Q. that's off the charts. But
beneath her pristine white lab coat is a curvaceous body that craves
satisfaction. She finds it hard keeping her mind on the experiment and off
what's under the lab coat of her bad boy research partner, Jay Cutler, whom
she's working with to develop a libido suppressant, an "antidote" for
a society gone sex-mad, pumped up and over-stimulated by the miracle of Viagra.
With
time running out, Jay offers to act as a human guinea pig, injecting himself
with the libido suppressant. Laura's role requires lingerie, soft music and
candlelight. Her job is to entice him, to determine if the suppressant tamps
down his desires. Rather than cooling the flames of lust engulfing them, their
"antidote" only heats them up . . . and there's only one scandalous
way to deal with it!
Suddenly
long days of laboratory work are giving way to sizzling nights of sensual
experimentation—and a different kind of "chemistry" that leaves Jay
and Laura breathless and gasping for more! Their professional careers may
depend upon a successful climax—and there are dangerous competitors determined
to steal their research. And maybe their pleasure games have gotten a bit out
of control.
But who in her right mind would
want to pull the plug on her man's libido when the loving is this deliciously
hot?
I wasn’t
sure what to think about this book. I’m not big into medical sciency books but
this one did not really focus on the science part. It’s a straight up romance
that just happens to have science in it. Works for me.
The story
line is about two scientists working together to create a male libido
suppressant to help make men last longer. They have to hurry because their
funding is about to be up. So they decide to test the serum on themselves. What
they didn’t know was that somebody had switched the vials, so that the
suppressant was really an enhancer. However (and I thought this was great) the
way that they feel about each other had nothing to do with the enhancer. They
would have had great sex either way.
There were
some funny moments. I especially liked the boss. As a side character, he’s not
really involved in the plot but it was still funny when he called them out for
having sex in his bathroom. I could just imagine the look on their faces.
Speaking of
sex, the sex in this book was great. There wasn’t any overt kinkiness but the
descriptions were almost kinky because they were so well done. I liked the
different locations and the variety of the sex scenes. Cathryn Fox definitely
has a sense of what people like to read in terms of sex. I definitely like her
writing style.
In the end
I am rating this book 3.75 stars. I like the characters and the way they
interact with each other. I look forward to the next book.
