    About this ebook

    Shari Wilson would love nothing more than to have a wild night with her downstairs neighbor, Luke Lawson. When she accidentally discovers that he's bought a how-to manual on “pleasing” women, she knows a wild night is out of the question! But when Luke asks her for lovemaking lessons, Shari knows she must do her part for all women and make him the best lover ever—and she'll do it all by the book….

    Embarrassed just doesn't describe how Luke feels when his sexy neighbor sees his first book, Sex for Total Morons. He knows he's a master in the bedroom, but judging by Shari's sudden pitying expression, she doesn't. Fortunately for him, Luke isn't about to let this opportunity pass by him. Shari's a teacher, so there's no way she'd refuse to teach him all the ins and outs of sex!

      Synopsis: Shari Wilson thinks her downstairs neighbor is gorgeous. One day, while delivering his mail, a how-to book on pleasing women falls out of the package right in front of him. Embarrassed, Shari runs off, thinking that her wild dreams with Luke are shattered if he needs a book. Even more embarrassed, Luke doesn't know how to tell Shari that he is the author of the book. He concocts an experiment to see if his book really works, and asks Shari for love making lessons. Shari agrees and they hit it off.Pros & Cons: Not much to say except that this is what it is: brain candy. The writing is not that great, but entertaining. I'm not really into Harlequin romances, but someone let me borrow this and it was just the type of book I needed during a stressful time.
    • 5/5
      Enjoyable book with good plot, plenty of action, humor, steamy scenes, and exciting ending. Teacher Shari accidentally gets her neighbor Luke's mail, a book called Sex for Total Morons.
