Third Challenge: Adrien must search Alexis’ house for the damning evidence, without her finding out.

Decadent

Decadent
By: Shayla Black

Kimber Edgington is a virgin with a crush-on a pop star with a penchant for threesomes. Determined to prove that she's woman enough for singer Jesse McCall, Kimber turns to bodyguard Deke Trenton for sexual education...lessons that include his super-sexy friend Luc. Though she's saved herself for Jesse, Kimber soon learns that he's not the man adept at stoking her aching, endless need. That's Deke, and he can't resist when Kimber begs for more-and more.

Publisher: Berkley Trade/Berkley Heat

ISBN: 0-425-21721-3

Genre: Contemporary Erotic/Menage á Trios
Length: Mainstream/approx. (Print)
Sensual Rating-- 5 flames

Ms. Black never fails to deliver a hot erotic tale laced with a wonderful cast of characters and steamy suspense. Spinning off of Wicked Ties, the hero in Decadent is Jack's friend Deke who in my personal opinion is one hot man! Deke is notorious for his brand of loving and for the fact he includes his cousin Luc in on the acts. But when a blast from his past appears on his doorstep requesting he and Luc to sleep with her, he can't believe it.

Kimber only went to Deke with the intention of learning how to please another man sexually. She knows Deke thinks she's crazy for her request but she is determined for him to teach her about the menage a trios lifestyle.

I found Deke and Kimber's relationship to be heartwarming and very realistic. Ms. Black's stories are entertaining and very erotic, but always a romance--this is possibly what makes author Shayla Black one of my favorites.
