Tracy’s review of Drilled by Regina Carlysle

Lori Donovan accepts the Cougar Challenge and pledges to snag a hot young stud, knowing it’ll be tough once she moves back to her Texas hometown. She expects barren plains and rattlesnakes but finds hunky Jackson Blue drilling for oil on her property instead. A driller. Hmm. Lori has a few ideas about that and just about all of them involve her poor, needy, sex-starved body.

Jackson takes one look at the curvy, sexy, older woman and puts his expertise into action. After all, drilling is what he does best. Against the wall, on the floor or in the middle of her bed, he’s the right man for the job. It’s a hot time in Texas when a tough, sexy drillin’ man meets a sassy cougar, and playing it safe just isn’t an option.

Lori has moved back to the small town that she grew up in. She’s inherited not only her grandparents house but all of the money from the drilling that’s happening on the land. She’s pretty much prepared to have a quiet, sedate life now that she’s away from the big city – until she meets Jackson Blue. Jackson Blue owns the petroleum company that is drilling crude from the land. They are instantly attracted to each other but Jackson’s 10 years younger than Lori, can she really go for it? Especially since she has pretty bad self esteem issues from her divorce.

This was a very cute novella that is part of the Cougar Challenge series. Being over 40 myself I could see where Lori would be a little hesitant to take up with a man who’s 10 years younger but Lori definitely held her own when they got together. She had some doubts, but I think most people do when beginning a new relationship.

I really liked Jackson in this story. His personality was open and honest and he was just a nice man – and very hot. He didn’t give one iota about the age difference and I loved that about him.

Overall it was a cute book with some great sex scenes…oh, and some toys added in there. *waggles eyebrows*

Rating: 3.5 out of 5
