My review cross-posted from Wit and Sin

 

Under Pressure is a fast-paced, seriously hot friends-to-lovers romance. As that is one of my favorite romance tropes, I was eager to dive into Reese and Cole’s story. Author Cathryn Fox did not disappoint – Under Pressure was the perfect mix of sweetness and spice.

Reese and Cole have been best friends for years, but each is too fearful of damaging their friendship to let on how much they want the other. An adventure-filled vacation is just the push they need to take the leap from friends to something much more. Ms. Fox did a great job of establishing Reese and Cole’s bond in a short amount of time. Because Cole and Reese do have such a strong foundation, it’s not unbelievable that they fall in love so quickly as they’re pretty much there to begin with. There’s no false drama in the story (which I appreciated), only two people understandably wary of damaging the most important relationship in their lives.

As individuals, Cole and Reese are incredibly likeable. As a couple, they are smokin’ hot with excellent chemistry in bed and out. And when you add in that they can also be quite sweet together, it’s easy to see why they’re such an easy couple to root for. All in all, Under Pressure is a quick and sexy romance that will leave you smiling. I adored Cole and Reese and I’m looking forward to more of Ms. Fox’s Dossier tales.

Cathryn Fox does not do tame.  Her stories are naughty, shocking and intense. Under Pressure is not afraid to pack on the seduction. Reese and Cole are a lesson in adventure just waiting to be explored.  Dangerous liaisons are around every corner. Get ready for the thrill of a lifetime.  

When someone likes the book I pressured them to read.

my new kick - pressure cooking! wow is it fast. I made divine chicken broth - NO salt.

Karen has so many disorders, it's hard for her to keep track. Among them is she can't stand the feel of regular clothing on her body so she wears a full body leotard thingy, she claustrophobic, can't stand the acceleration and deceleration of flying, on and on. She's the first mate from Earth and so Lemac and Dgor have no idea how to handle their encounters with her and kind of blow it over and over again. She thinks they are figments of her imagination. That part of the book was way too long. This e-book was over 600 pages which is super long for an e-book and I think if she could have edited down part of their time on Earth, this book would have flowed better. Once they get into space, the book started getting better, but it took forever for them to get there. I do have book #3 and will read it. Hopefully it's not as long as this book was.
