"Delicious like an ice cream sundae, satisfying but over way too fast"

BODY CHEMISTRY, the third book in the Black Stockings
series, is the most playfully romantic of the books to
date. Biologist Brenda Everton receives her invitation to join
the secret society after being stunned by the suicide of a
close friend and failing to win a grant that would
continue funding her scientific research. With one failed
marriage already behind her and these latest personal
setbacks, Brenda decides it would be nice to meet her
Ideal Man but has no clue where to begin. Renowned scientist Dominic Ayers has fame and fortune...and
one regret. An encounter with Brenda at the funeral of
their mutual friend fuels his determination to be reunited
with his ex-wife, if only she'll give him a second chance. Dara Girard again presents the Black Stockings Society as
a means of helping the chosen woman get what she needs and
deserves out of life. A new wardrobe and makeover, some
perks specific to her life's desires, and a few pairs of
sexy stockings that make all the difference in exchange
for secrecy. I wanted Brenda and Dominic together to restore their love
and bask in their undeniable chemistry right from the
beginning. With each supporting character, it was a
matter of being for or against what was clearly the
winning team. Like a delicious ice cream sundae, BODY CHEMISTRY gave
complete satisfaction but was over way too fast. I don't
know how many more stories are planned for this series but
for my money, Ms. Girard can just keep the books coming
and coming and coming.
SUMMARY
Every good girl deserves to be a little bit wicked... Biologist Brenda Everton has excelled in a man's
world--often at the expense of her personal life. When she
receives an invitation to join the Black Stockings Society,
her first impulse is to throw it away, until she starts to
wonder just what kind of fun she's been missing... Now, donning a sequined pair of seamed black stockings,
Brenda's taking a meeting with her ex-husband, wealthy
entrepreneur Dominic Ayers. Dominic has learned there's a
lot more to life than work... and one glimpse of Brenda
makes him realize how much he wants to teach her all about
letting loose, listening to her heart and finding our
whether passion can strike twice...
