In HIS EVERY NEED, Allie Campbell made a promise to her
dying mother, to take care of the family. Six months after
her
death, things are reaching their breaking point rather
quickly. Her father is lost and has no idea how to take
care of his family, leaving it all up to Allie. The
situation gets worse when Allie finds out that her father
has lost their house.
Refusing to let her family become homeless, Allie goes
straight to the man who bought their home, Trevor Blake.
When nothing seems to work to persuade him to give her more
time, she is desperate and makes Trevor an offer that is
sure to have him laughing in her face.
Trevor Blake, wealthy businessman has always known love was
a fairy tale. Having been abandoned by his parents and
raised by his grandfather, he is a very closed off private
person, prefer his solitude. However, when Allie comes to
his officede desparate to keep her family home, she
makes him an offer that he can't refuse. Sex in exchange for
him forgiving the loan between her father and himself.
Allie moves in with Trevor in order to "work" for him. But
since Allie has been the glue that had held her family
together, eventually the drama finds her. With her father
more interested in his dating life than he is of his
daughters, once again they look to Allie to solve their
problems.
I really enjoyed HIS EVERY NEED. Her characters are
complex in their own way. I like the fact that Trevor
didn't take advantage of the situation and jump right into
bed with Allie, he took the time to get to know her and
allow their chemistry to build. Terri L Austin's writing
has
the story flowing beautifully throughout the entire book.
HIS EVERY NEED is more about the relationship between Allie
and Trevor than it is about
sex. I enjoyed that while the intimate scenes are plenty
they are strategically placed within the story to
balance everything out. This is a great start to a new
series, can't wait to see what comes next in the Beauty
and
the Brit series by Terri L Austin.
Allie Campbell is determined to take care of her family, no
matter the cost. But when her father loses their home to
British tycoon Trevor Blake, Allie finds herself forced to
plead for more time to pay off the loan...and if she has to
use her own body as collateral, then so be it.
Trevor isn't moved by Allie's story. But when Allie
impulsively offers to do anything to keep the house, he's
intrigued enough to raise the stakes: for the next two
months, she must cater to his every need, no matter how
depraved. To his amazement, she agrees.
Allie has no intention of enjoying her time with the
arrogant, domineering Brit, but it doesn't take long before
he's got her aching for his touch-and he'll do whatever it
takes to make her beg...
