“You Said You’d Never Be With Me.” He confronted her. “Are you sure you want to keep provoking me?” Valentina Rossi spent years using humor and an unnegotiable pact to hide a dangerous secret: the overwhelming desire she felt for her best friend. To her, Adrian was the line between safety and total ruin. But Adrian Vance, with his implacable posture and ice-cold facade, was hiding a silent, suffocating obsession, holding the key to a contained fury threatening to explode at any moment. When a booking error forces them to share a single bed in an oceanfront suite, their self-control completely shatters. Between accidental touches, deliberate provocations, and an electric chemistry that tears through the air, friendship gives way to an unbearable, carnal tension. How far can they resist when the forbidden becomes the only thing that truly matters? A scorching contemporary romance novel, filled with surrender, simmering tension, and the delicious combustion of breaking every single rule.

I struggled with this one, and I have lots to say about it. (Fair warning 😁) Valentina would have earned an insulting nickname in my neighborhood. And "tease" is the second word of that nickname. She had zero respect for him or even for herself. Hormonal, selfish, and predatory toward her supposed best friend. He was so wise and caring and protective of their bond and had the maturity and wisdom to maintain his restraint. And she would not have any of it. She wanted what she wanted when she wanted it, and then when she got it (used him!), she pulled that immature morning-after overreaction, "Oh no, we made a mistake." Unbelievable but predictable behavior from a user. His reaction to that, his righteous anger so articulately expressed, was completely logical and justified--like everything else he'd said to her before surrendering. The only problem is he didn't get up, pack up, and walk away from that mess. She was not worthy of such a noble man. There ya go, my two cents. 🤷‍♀️

Story line is good but the telling is too slow, and it does not earn the hot label.
