Review: Slippery When Wet - Never Say Goodbye by Jenna Byrnes

Slippery When Wet
Never Say Goodbye
Jenna Byrnes



Damien is a guy who never caught a break... even when he was born... he was born on the wrong side of tracks.
His mother was a hooker/waitress/drug addict. His father was a alcoholic. So, when Damien was born, he was born a drug addict. Needless to say life was not all peaches and cream. This is a little of how Damien made it: "Let’s just say I used my assets and earned enough money to survive. One of my johns—er, business associates, turned me on to the fine art of breaking and entering. (page 34)"

 *~* I did receive this book from Night Owl Romance for the purpose of my honest review.

So, all thoughts and comments regarding this book are solely mine!*~*

Now step back, can you imagine a life like this or even half like this. I don't think so. Yea, it made me want to take Damien and love him until he was sure about himself. To bad women are not his cup of "sex." His self esteem is not all that great, but he knows how to put up a great act. Prison will teach you that.

Let's meet Charles, his john... I mean his business associate... I mean his lover. He is a very wealthy and controlling man. He apprecaites Damien's finer assets. Charles says when, where and how. He controls everything down to where Damien spends the night. The only thing I have to say about Charles is that he is pond scum. Okay, so he might be lower than pond scum. You will see what I mean when you read the book.

Now on the delicious other man... Travis. Oh my gosh, he wrangles horses for a living. A true live cowboy!! And he has the hots for Damien. Charles hires Travis to wrangle his horses. Yea, okay so Charles wanted him to wrangle more than his horses, but Travis saw Charles for his true colors and wanted no part of that. However, Travis is determined to get under Damien's skin like he gets under his.

This book was very suspenseful. I was thinking a sugar daddy theme, but boy was I wrong. Ms. Jenna did a wonderful job of keeping me guessing in this one. I love her writing style. I fall in a love with her characters, yea I know I never have a chance with them, but still, I love'em! The emotion in this book between Travis and Damien was very touching. The part in the barn is my favorite. To see the tender side of Damien, to see that wall come down and his heart open... Oh my gosh - I fell in love!

So the questions remain: Will Damien allow his past to ruin his future? Are risks worth taking? Can a broken man find happiness and love? Pick up this book and you will find out... and under 60 pages... you will find the answers!
