"The Three S's....Sexy Steamy, and Suspenseful!"

Fresh Fiction Review

Mystery Man
Kristen Ashley

Reviewed by Annie Tegelan

Romance Suspense

Every few years, there comes an author whose work causes such an excitement that fans flock together to discuss their favorite hero, heroine, series or sex scene. Kristen Ashley is one of these authors who has captured the hearts of many with her passionate writing and to-die-for heroes and fun heroines. MYSTERY MAN is the first in the Dream Man series. Prepare for some steam and suspense because Ashley provides both of these in spades! Gwendolyn Kidd is one lucky woman. For a year and a half, she gets nightly visits from a mystery man. They engage in smoking hot sex and then the sex god disappears into the night without a trace. However, when Gwen gets caught up in her sister's trouble, this forces the mystery man who goes by the name of Cabe "Hawk" Delgado to keep her safe during daylight. And once Hawk makes an appearance, it's hard to keep the bossy, straight-talking dream man chained. Hawk is testosterone and then some. Much of the reason why I enjoyed MYSTERY MAN so much is that Ashley creates such interesting and hilarious dialogue between her characters. When you put Gwen and Hawk together, that's really where the magic happens. Ashley has a knack for getting to the meat of the character and bringing out the best (and worst) characteristics of each and then showing readers how they can still work in a relationship no matter how alpha the hero can be. Ashley certainly delivers a thrill ride and I predict she will continue to stir up a frenzy with future books to come.

SUMMARY

Gwendolyn Kidd has met the man of her dreams. He's hot, he's sexy, and what started as a no-names-exchanged night of passion has blossomed into a year and a half-long pleasure fest. Sure, it's a little strange that he only appears in her bed at night, but Gwen is so sure he's the one, she just can't turn him away... Hawk Delgado knows more about Gwen than she could ever imagine. She's gorgeous, headstrong, and skittish about relationships. But Hawk is facing his own demons, demons that keep him from connecting with anyone. Yet when Gwen is drawn into Denver's lethal underground scene, Hawk's protective nature comes out full force. The problem is, when Gwen gets a dose of Hawk's Alpha attitude in the daylight, she's not so sure he's the one anymore....
