Mr. Complete

Rating:
Summary: enjoyable gender battle
Review: Lydia Carmichael is irate because she believes her beloved Aunt Tempera was wronged by L.J. Reynolds's Mr. Complete Escort Service. Her aunt's escort took advantage of a lonely female who fell in love with the gigolo. Lydia filed a complaint with the police and decides she must personally take action by going undercover as a client to expose this firm as a "sex for hire" male prostitution company.

NYPD Detective Parker informs Mr. Complete Escort Service owner Luke Reynolds that another complaint was filed against his company involving a charge of illicit sex. Luke tells the cop that he fired the escort for that reason as he runs a clean operation. Luke knows his foster brother and business rival Rhew Burgess, owner of At Your Service, has caused his recent woes. However, he overhears Lydia's tirade and plan when she speaks in a public place to a friend. He decides to go along with her ploy as her escort, but finds himself incredibly attracted to Lydia, but if she fails to reciprocate any move he makes it will affirm her belief that he is running a criminal operation.

Though the use of coincidence in which the two protagonists have meetings at the same time in Danny's Bar and Grill, fans will enjoy this gender battle between two wonderful lead characters. The story line is at its best when Luke is not sure whether to trust Lydia with his feelings for her because she proclaimed to her friend she planned to shut down his business and put him behind bars. Yet he cannot walk away as he finds his attraction for her overwhelming. Humorous and hunk heaven, Sheridon Smythe spins a delightful tale.

Summary: This book was complete
Review: What can I say about Mr. Complete. It was definitely a page turner. Lydia Carmichael was trying to bring down Luke Reynold's business because she thought they were gigolos and because one of his excorts seduced her aunt Tempera and took her money. So she's going to get one of the escorts to sleep with her for money and then take that evidence to the police department. Unknown to her, Luke already knows her plan and he has a plan of his own. Since she's planning on pretending to be a client, he's going to pretend to be a gigolo. Unknown to both of them, there's something going on that neither of them can stop. An attraction that is undenible. Luke will always be Lydia's gigolo.
