Chantilly’s Lace - Rae Monet

Chantilly’s Lace features the story of Scott and Chandra. Scott is a very successful businessman, and he is now looking to acquire Chantilly’s Lace, a lingerie outfit, which is on the verge of bankruptcy after expanding too rapidly. Whilst at the annual Apparel Conference in New York, Scott is seduced by Chandra, who promises only one night of no questions asked sex. Unbeknownst to Scott, Chandra is trying to disprove her ex-boyfriends accusation that she is a cold fish. She responds to Scott in a way she has never responded to another man. Also unknown to Scott is that Chandra is the owner of Chantilly’s Lace. When they finally find out who each other really is, will the sparks still be flying between them? Or will it be business as usual for the pair?

Eve's Interlude - Jodi Lynn Copeland

Jodi Lynn Copeland’s story, Eve’s Interlude, details the turbulent relationship between Eve and Adrien. Eve’s brother is trying to coerce her into marrying a rival businessman, who he views as perfect husband and father material. She decides to rebel and does so by breaking company policy and having sex with a guest. Only, in a case of mistaken identity, she has hot sex with Adrien, the estranged twin of the man she thought she was going to be having sex with. Neither is looking for a relationship, but each is drawn to the other in a way that neither of them can understand. Will these two commitment phobic people fall deeply enough for each other to take a chance at a long term commitment? Or will Adrien race out of town after their weekend of absolute bliss?



This alliance between Rae Monet and Jodi Lynn Copeland is simply superb. These tales are linked together in a few ways, which are discernible early on in the stories. Both have been written very well, their focus as much on the emotional aspects as the physical. In many ways, the male characters are very similar. Each has difficulty expressing themselves in words. Both are not looking for the relationship that sneaks up on them and bites them on the behind. There is also a more personal connection between the pair that I will leave you to find out for yourself. The use of horoscopes in the storyline is rather unique, and I now intend to read the others in The Zodiac Series. I hope I enjoy those tales as much as I have enjoyed these.
