Loved this sexy, seductive, emotional story of a husband and wife willing to not give up on their stagnant marriage and desiring to find their way back to each other. Authentic and hopeful, I only wish we could have had more of this special couple.

Sexy Little Surprises is a short story about two people who've lost their way, and how they manage to find a way back to one another. It starts off with these two characters at odds, he doesn't want to lose her, but she see no other alternative. It was going to be a sweet and heart wrenching journey.

I’m a huge fan of Shiloh Walker, so when she told me she was publishing books under the name J.C. Daniels, I was excited to give them a try. I was lucky enough to be sent a copy of Sexy Little Surprises for review.
Sexy Little Surprises is a novella length e-book and is full of much sexiness and a multitude of emotions. Garrett and Alexis haven’t been as connected to one another in the past couple of years as they were early in their relationship. Tragedy struck and guilt has caused Garrett to di...more

4 1/2 stars.
Sexy Little Surprises by J.C. Daniels is the emotional erotic tale of a married couple who finally reach a crisis on their tenth anniversary. A myriad of events coalesce into an apparently insurmountable barrier as each partner withdraws further and further from the pain that can only be experienced by those who share a searingly deep connection. Alexis Marshall is familiar with the stresses attendant upon those who have loved ones in hazardous jobs but has somehow lost her equanimit...more

I love stories that talk about the issues that at certain point come in between a couple and what they have to do to work on their relationship and overcome those obstacles. This short story was the perfect example of working at a relationship before giving up.

Shiloh Walker never ceases to amaze me with her writing. This is her novella under a pseudonym, J.C. Daniels. I thought the story was fleshed out in a short amount of time and I felt complete at the end of the story yet I did want more. The characters had quite a backstory and after reading I wondered how she had managed to artfully put a whole story into a novella format. It was sexy and fun with unique and *real* characters. I hope to read more J.C. Daniels in the future!
Should be a 3 1/2 stars.
I enjoyed this short story of a couple who finds them self drifting apart after 8 years of marriage and a very tragic loss. But just when it seems they are going to throw in the towel. They both realize that they are still deeply in love and that they don't want it to end.
But after so long will it be to late to mend the pain and bridge the distance between them?
You will just have to pick up a copy of Sexy Little Secret to find out.

Maybe more like a ... C? C-? Nothing special, quick read.
Nice to see a focus on a relationship though.
Got a bit maudlin? At places, but definitely a touching topic that the hero and heroine had to work through.
