4 Smooches
Synopsis
She’s trying to move on, but the past won’t let her go.
I fell in love once.
It was a big mistake, but the biggest mistake of all was staying with him.
He pushed me around. He cheated and treated me like trash.
I don’t feel sorry for myself, because I let him.
But no more.
I moved out. I’m saving my stripper’s salary for an education that will get me somewhere better.
But breaking the chains of a shitty past isn’t easy. He says I owe him. He says we aren’t done. I don’t care what he says anymore.
I do care about Adam.
But my history tells me I’m not the best judge of men. And the fact Adam’s been married four times tells me he probably isn’t a safe choice.
I need safe. I need better. I need out.
If the past is any indication of my future, getting out isn’t going to be easy.
Review
I love the Take It Off series by Cambria Hebert. Each book is a complete standalone and each one I read I seem to love than the last. Trashy was no different! I loved this unique and sexy story. Trashy revolves around Roxie a stripper who only ever really wanted to get out of her small town, Craig her crazy asshole ex-boyfriend and Adam the sexy alpha owner of the strip club.
“Maybe he’s the one you’ve been waiting for. my heart whispered. I couldn’t have been more wrong.”
Craig isn’t just a jerk of an ex he is scary and stalkery. Lordy this poor girl for being a stripper she really is so innocent, having only ever been with Craig. Input possessive and protective alpha man Adam and let the sexy times just roll in. After dealing with Craig she really deserved someone like Adam who can love her in the right way with all his being. That being said this is not an easy love story between Roxie and Adam.
Just like with all the other Cambria books I have read this book was a great love story with tons of steam but also full of mystery, drama and angst. It was a riveting read that really left me excited to read more from her. If you read tease (book 2) you will recognize these characters and setting but in no way do you need to read it in order to read this book. All fans of sexy romance books who love a bit of a mystery should definitely give this a try!
