Review: Show and Tell by Jasmine Haynes

Publisher: Berkley, Penguin

Passion first. Names later.

Trinity Green always dreamed of uninhibited passion, but pleasing her husband meant never having a hair out of place—or so she thought. The day she found him getting down and dirty with another woman, she decided to stop pleasing other people—and start pleasing herself…

Now she’s indulging in everything she used to deny herself—from great food to a few sexy encounters with a man who doesn’t even know her name. Having total control gives her a thrill she never imagined. But with true passion comes real connection, and soon Trinity must admit—and accept—who she really is…

Show and Tell is the follow up to The Fortune Hunter. Trinity Green was instrumental in introducing Connor to Faith. In The Fortune Hunter, Trinity eloped with the man she thought was perfect for her. She was determined to be the perfect wife, which means being at her absolute best at all times. Even in the bedroom. If her sex life is a little bland, Trinity doesn’t complain. When she finds her husband home one afternoon after coming home early, she decides to seduce him. That’s before she found him boinking some hussy in their shower. Enraged and hurt, Trinity kicks both of them out and heads to a hotel.

When Scott Sinclair enters his hotel room after a business meeting, the last thing he expects to hear is two people going at it in the room next door. Shamelessly listening, Scott soon realizes that the moans he hears are only coming from a woman, which means that she’s alone. He decides that he can’t pass this opportunity up, even if the woman immediately calls the police when he presents her with his indecent proposal.

Trinity is shocked when a stranger knocks on her door asking if he could watch her pleasure herself. She’s even more shocked when she agrees. Knowing that she’s quite possibly crazy, Trinity decides that this will help her feel more like the desirable woman she knows she can be. It’s only after he leaves that she berates herself for inviting the stranger in. When he slips his card under her door the following morning, she has no intention of calling him.

Her intentions don’t last long and Trinity finds herself in the midst of a sizzling affair with a man that has no idea that she is Trinity Green, heiress. She doesn’t have to be perfect around Scott, something she finds irresistible. When Scott starts wanting more, Trinity resists knowing that if he knows who she really is, he will start having expectations of her that everyone else in her life has.

This is an extremely unlikely story, but it was pretty hawt. I have to admire a man that can knock on the hotel room door of a complete stranger asking for something that is so private. I did enjoy the book, though Trinity did get tiring at times. Her reluctance to start more with Scott got old, to both myself and Scott. This book was more about Trinity out who she could be as a woman than anything else. She got a lot of hot sex with a hot man along the way. Lucky girl.

4 out of 5.
