Review: Jace – T.A. Grey

One fateful tail-bender leaves Mara Colgen with a hard-on for Jace Mathews which is not how Mara anticipated meeting the hottest man alive. Or, rather, one crappy afternoon bodyguard Jace gets a rude awakening when some cutesy blonde rear-ends his beautiful truck. Now he’s really in for it. Mara’s pretty, funny, and has the greatest job in the world…

She is a sex toy operator.

Just those three words send Jace into a dream-like coma plagued with erotic imagery featuring the spunky sex toy operator. As luck would have it for Jace, nothing’s easy. Mara comes to him with a problem…one he cannot refuse to help her out with. Someone strange keeps calling Mara, she thinks someone’s been in her house, and worse Jace might be thinking the same thing. Mara needs help and Jace finds he’s the right man to lend a (strong) helping hand—so long as they seal the deal with more than a kiss.

Reviewer’s Thoughts

I absolutely loved the story. I loved how Jace and Mara first met, instant chemistry. Mara’s quick-witted banter almost makes Jace forget the fact that she crashed into the back of his truck. The story gets more interesting when Jace finds out what Mara does for a living…a sex toy operator. My curiosity was piqued as well!

Mara’s past has caught up with her and she needs Jace’s bodyguard services. Mara’s abusive ex-boyfriend has tracked her down and wants her back. The chemistry between Jace and Mara heat up the closer they become, but an altercation at a bar has Mara rethinking Jace’s advances. She’s already had one abusive boyfriend, she doesn’t want a repeat.

Jace tries to show Mara that he is not like her ex by sharing his abusive childhood with her. While Mara feels bad for what he went through, she just isn’t sure if it’s enough to convince her Jace is different. With her crazy ex’s actions escalating, Mara has to decide whether to trust Jace with her protection…and with her heart.

There is nothing about this book I didn’t like. It was funny, had explosive sex scenes, and equally interesting secondary characters. This is a great, quick read for anyone curious about T.A. Grey’s books.
