AUTHOR BIO: USA Today Bestselling author Jill Shalvis is happily writing her next book from her neck of the Sierras. You can find her romances wherever books are sold, or visit her right here at her humorous daily blog where she chronicles her I-Love-Lucy life. Her life is like any other human being trying to juggle work, kids, and a frisky husband. According to her blog, it is “6:00 A.M. when the alarm goes off while dreaming about latest plot. Husband hits sleep button “” five times. Upon threat of death, he turns off alarm, rolls toward me and begs “caffeine’.” By 9:00 P.M. she states “Husband wakes me up with a hopeful smile. I’m going to need caffeine”. Check out her website for more on a day in the life of Jill Shalvis.
Instant Gratification is the second book in a series about the Wilder brothers; however, it can be read as a standalone. Ms. Shalvis pits a wise cracking, adventuring, meandering man against a cool, always on the go, organized woman who keeps everyone at a distance. Stone amazes me because even though you would think he is this egotistical alpha male, he has instead, a very soft and tender side that is willing to risk it all for the woman he loves. Emma is the type of person who just does not know how to unwind and relax enough to see that there are people around her who are eager to accept and love her for who she is. With some sexy scenes that had me drooling (especially in the lake), a carefree hard body and a cautious woman, this is one novel you do not want to miss, and I for one cannot wait for the next book in the series!
