"SKIN DEEP"

Michael Romero has been through this routine with his best friend Kyra White 13 times in the past four years. Kyra has had the misfortune of picking the wrong guy to date and after a few weeks she is unceremoniously dumped. He takes her to a bookstore where she can pick out a new romance then they go to get Chinese and then to drown their sorrows in ice cream.

Kyra is tired of being dumped so she decides that she needs a change. Instead of the latest romance, she picks up the newest makeover book SEX KITTEN 101. She then scoots a confused Michael out and transforms herself to knock men's socks off. Her transformation works very well with men, including her best friend Michael who is looking at Kyra in a whole new light.

Michael has been struggling with his attraction with Kyra for four years, but didn't want to act on it in fear he would lose his best friend. Kyra is puzzled by Michael's sudden interest and isn't sure if it's her or her new look. Can best friends make the transition into lovers?

SKIN DEEP is the newest Temptation by popular author Tori Carrington. SKIN DEEP was funny and hot, just like you would expect to find in a Tori Carrington book. The love scenes are guaranteed to singe your fingers as you fall in love with Michael and Kyra. Gotta love a book with a cat named Mr. Tibbs who reminds me of my own cat.
