Jada Marquet is having a horrible day.
She has just been fired, her boyfriend has left her, and she
is flat broke and out of money. Job hunting is harder than
it looks and after a couple of days she is ready to throw in
the towel. Coming up with the idea to advertise for a
roommate, Jada interviews several prospects to no avail but
when Travis Sanders shows up, she is instantly aware of his
masculinity and finds herself thinking of him as a potential
lover instead of roommate. The fact that he is drop dead
gorgeous doesn’t help. When he moves in, they are unable to
keep their hands and mouths off of each other. Travis is
more than just Jada’s roommate; he is the man she never knew
she wanted.
The plot and premise of More Than Just Roommates
is a good one. Jada needed help and Travis, being the
man that he is, comes to her rescue in the form of a
roommate. He also helps her get back her ambition and
realize that the world is not out to get her but that she
had to grab hold of her dreams and make them come true.
While I wish I could say this was an extraordinary romance,
I can’t. The love scenes are hot and sexy but seemed almost
rehearsed. I found myself rolling my eyes at the first love
scene between Jada and Travis simply because it happened so
quickly. Chemistry seemed to be there but I couldn’t feel
their emotions and that made it very hard for me to enjoy
this book. |
