Review
My Rating - 5 Stars!
Silvia Violet's Anticipating Temptation is an amazing addition to her Anticipation series. The third book in the series, it's easily read as a standalone.
I was immediately drawn in by Marty and Rob. After meeting them in previous books, Marty's in town after running for an abusive ex, and his new boss captures his attention from the start. And Rob instantly feels like Marty is more than just another employee. There's instant attraction and desire between the two, leading to some fun times, including Marty's first day on the job.
In Rob, Marty finds someone who makes him smile. Just swoon. And Rob's question sums it up well, when he asks "Do you need a Daddy, Marty?"
Despite Rob only being in town temporarily, the two men certainly can't resist the temptation. To add to the fun, Rob has no fear of getting caught in public. What starts as a casual sexual relationship quickly leads to strong feelings. Their relationship is full of possessiveness, intensity, and passion. It's also one with a great balance between taking care of someone while also fostering independence.
It's the wonderful tale of grabbing the chance for a summer together knowing there's an end date. It's a tale of a closeted man who's he never had a reason to come out before. It's a tale of a man surviving abuse and it's aftermath. Add in some homophobia to up the angst factor, and some hot, yet mild Daddy kink, and it's a marvelous story.
The writing is as I'd expect from this established author. The characters are strong, the story structure is wonderful, and the small town feel is well captured. The descriptive writing is downright hot.
