Honey Trap review

August 27, 2008 | Honey Trap, reviews

I’m loving this 4.5 star review from Singletitles.com, which I’m going to put up in its entirety because the plot summary is so good:

When Sophie Tennant decided to become a private investigator, she had dreams of making the world a better place – she certainly never expected to spend most of her working days –and nights – kitted out in ghastly revealing outfits chatting up sleazebags! Rather than solving unresolved cases or saving the world, Sophie spends most of her time proving to embittered wives that their husbands are being unfaithful! After she is nearly assaulted by a vengeful cheater, Sophie decides to pack it all in and to become an aromatherapist. But her honey trap past refuses to remain buried…

Opening up a clinic in the sleepy town of Stoneguard, Sophie realizes that she still hasn’t found the fulfillment which she had craved. Sick of hearing her customer’s sordid confessions and of trying but failing to make ends meet, Sophie decides to look for pastures new, and as luck would have it, Eighties rock star Max DeMilo asks Sophie to go on tour with his band, the Venusians, as their aroma therapist. Sophie is absolutely delighted, but her delight soon turns to shock when she realizes that Dominick Steele has just joined Max’s band!

With a legion of adoring fans, a loving wife and critics worshipping the ground he walked on, in his heyday Dominick Steele had been the king of the musical industry. But when his wife deserted him and he’d sought solace in alcohol for one time too many, Dominick found himself all alone with nobody to turn to. Shunned by the musical industry, Dominick had found himself lurching from one financial crisis to another – until Max called him up and asked him to join his band. Dominick sees this tour as his last chance to climb back on top again, but when he sees Sophie again, he’s absolutely livid!

Five years ago, Sophie had been engaged by his wife as a honey trap and had cost him his marriage and subsequently his career. The last thing he wants is for Sophie to ruin his last chance for him. Dominick is determined to make the best out of this situation, but the more time he spends with Sophie, the more he realizes that she has hidden layers; layers which he is keen to explore!

As the two get closer, they realize that they are falling passionately in love with one another. But can they ever learn to trust one another? Or will their sordid pasts prevent them from moving forward and finding the happiness which they both deserve?

Julie Cohen is simply fantastic! Sexy, spellbinding, feel-good and absolutely impossible to put down, her latest novel, Honey Trap, is a beguiling and compelling romantic comedy that will tug at your heartstrings and make you laugh out loud! Written with flair, charm and panache, this engrossing contemporary romance is a must-read for readers looking for smart, sassy and intelligent romantic comedies.

Sharp, witty, funny and as sexy as sin, if you haven’t discovered the magic of Julie Cohen, then rush to your nearest book shop and get ready to indulge in her incredibly delicious romantic novels!

Thank you, Julie at Singletitles, for such a fab review. You made my day.

Honey Trap is available on Amazon.co.uk, and of course at your nearest book shop.
