More Than Tempt You by Shayla Black is book 5 in the More Than Words series. This is Bethany Banks and Clint Holmes's story.
The underlying thread that runs in this read is loss, revenge, betrayal, sins of the father, and forgiveness. This has a bit of the twist to the enemies to lovers theme - Clint is desperate for answers to what caused his father's death and the destruction of his/their business. He believes the person responsible for their problems and the cause is Bethany so he sets out to( with the help of a new fake identity) to make sure Bethany pays for the destruction she and her boss( aka father) caused his family but what happens when Clint finds out Bethany is just is as much a victim, if not more so than him ? By now he has fallen head over heels in love with her and she doesn't know she started off as just a means to an end.
Will Clint be able to get Bethany, their HEA and closure ?
This is an emotional, powerful, moving read about loss, betrayal, revenge and being able to let go while embracing love. The story is full-bodied, great characters, steamy and has great feels. Loved the heat and rollercoaster ride of emotions that alwsys come with a Shayla Black romance read. I can't wait for the next book.
My Rating: 4.7 stars *******
