Synopsis

When Emily Wayborn goes home to visit her mom while on hiatus from her hit TV show, she receives a voicemail from her former best friend, Amber. Though the two were once notorious party girls, they haven’t spoken in years. Although the message might sound benign to anyone else, Amber uses a safe word that Emily recognizes, a word they always used to get out of sticky situations during their wild days. And what’s more chilling than the voicemail: it turns out that Amber has gone missing.

Determined to track down her friend, Emily follows a chain of clues that lead her to the enigmatic billionaire Reeve Sallis, a hotelier known for his shady dealings and play boy reputation. Now, in order to find Amber, Emily must seduce Reeve to learn his secrets and discover the whereabouts of her friend. But as she finds herself more entangled with him, she finds she’s drawn to Reeve for more than just his connection to Amber, despite her growing fear that he may be the enemy. When she’s forced to choose where her loyalty lies, how will she decide between saving Amber and saving her heart?

Review

Wow, I am big fan of this author.  I have enjoyed most of her books but man this one was totally different and really surprising.  I was hooked from page one.  I mean, COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN.  Just, wow.

So, First Touch is impossibly sexy.  Ya know, the if you are reading it in public blush down to your toes sexy.  The sex scenes were beyond sensual but really what had me hooked was the actual story.  I mean these characters, pretty much all of them, are flawed.  Not a one did I think was a particularly good person.  They all have somewhat tragic past that have molded them and made them into the people that they are so while empathized with them, I didn’t necessarily love them but that did not stop me from loving this story.  It didn’t stop me from rooting for love.  It didn’t stop me from wanting to find out “who did it.”  It definitely didn’t stop me from wanting a happy ending.  And, speaking of that ending.  I am just so mad because I simply cannot wait for the next book.  I am absolutely dying for it because there is ridiculously huge cliffy that had my jaw literally hitting the floor.  Oh, Laurelin Paige, you are a bad bad girl.

The romance in this story is top notch but the mystery is the part I loved best.  It kept me turning the pages like the true book addict I am!

This book has fabulous writing and an amazing plot.  I have no idea what is going to happen next but I know it is going to be damn good.  I need that book now!

‘This was our first surrender,  First embrace,  First kiss.  First touch.’
