Jasmine Stanford, a Cape Cod Yoga instructor, started penniless, homeless and parentless, rebuilding her life into success and a feeling of security. A father in investments who committed suicide and a mother incapable of support, left Jasmine to fend for herself. Finally rebuilding a good life, she leaves little for personal relationships. That is, until she meets Leo Fischer, a former investment banker who has lost his memory after being shot.

Leo is spending time in Cape Cod to recover from his amnesia, with the idea of returning to the investment world. Things get off on the wrong foot when Jasmine is approached by Leo, thinking he is only attempting to "get in her pants". His unlikely story is discounted. Eventually, Jasmine learns the truth and sizzling hot sex is the beginning of their relationship. If nothing else, their physical attraction is always undeniable. Jasmine is reluctant to become involved emotionally as she is aware he will return to his world and she will be left behind again to rebuild her life alone. By this time Leo is regaining his memory and no longer wishes to return to his unfulfilling life, as it was. His genuine feelings for Jasmine are being re-evaluated daily, each time they are together. A surprise visit from Jasmine's estranged mother sets her world back on its axis. Now Jasmine sees things differently and has decisions to make.

BENDING OVER BACKWARD is a scorching hot tale, complete with very explicit sex. This is one of the most graphic sex stories I have ever read. The story itself is emotional and reveals the underlying fears of a woman and man who have both become survivors of tragedy. This is the first I have read by Samantha Hunter but found it interesting and an easy ready. The content had, perhaps, a bit more graphic sex than what I am accustomed to, but carried out with taste.
