I really thought I was going to thoroughly enjoy Too Much Temptation, but in the end it just didn't grab my attention and engage my emotions the way I had hoped. In my opinion, the story was pretty light on the plot and the characters were underdeveloped and inconsistent.

In my opinion, the story was pretty light on the plot and the characters were underdeveloped and inconsistent. All of the characters seemed to have thoughts, feelings and actions that were as changeable as the weather, making it very difficult for me to fully grasp anyone's motives. There were quite a few scenes that were written from the point-of-view of secondary characters which I could have done without, in favor of better development of the hero and heroine. This was a pretty light story that I think was supposed to be humorous at times, but even though I consider myself to have a good sense of humor, I rarely found anything to be truly funny. I also thought that some of the author's word choices could have been better, as I was often jolted out of the story by words and phrases that just didn't seem to fit. This is really more of a personal thing, but overall I simply didn't feel that the narrative had the polished flow of many others I have read.

Grace and Noah were nice people, and although I didn't have any real problems with them, I couldn't honestly say that they stood out to me either. I do commend the author for writing a heroine who is fuller-figured and a hero who loves her unconditionally. I also thought that Grace's loyalty and protectiveness of Noah was very sweet and charming. I liked that Noah had an angst-ridden background, but it just never seemed to go anywhere and didn't have nearly the emotional bite as many other stories with the same theme. I really felt like the author was just rattling off a list of facts about his past, but gave me few clues about his feelings. Most of the time I found Noah's grandmother to be thoroughly manipulative and his ex-fiancee to be weak and whiny, and both of them seemed fairly shallow. I don't think I was supposed to dislike them all the time, but I couldn't seem to muster much liking for them even when they were being a little more decent. The only supporting player I really liked was Noah's brother, Ben. He was a nice, down-to-earth guy, who made me feel like cheering when he put his grandmother in her place. I'm happy to say that he gets to be the hero of the next book in the series.

Overall, Too Much Temptation didn't completely wow me, but one thing I can say is that the love scenes were fairly frequent, hot and creative, pushing the envelope a bit without crossing into the erotic. For readers who enjoy lots of steam, but don't mind a story that is a little light on plot, this would definitely be a worthwhile read. This was my first book by Lori Foster, and even though I thought it could have been better, I will likely read the rest of the series at some point and keep an open mind about reading her other works in the future.(less)

This was a nice story. It had interesting characters even though the plot was not overly complex. Indeed, it was very basic.

I enjoyed the dynamic between Noah and Grace. He was attracted to her regardless of what she felt about her physical appearance.

Kara - an unnecessarily dramatic emotional wreck

I couldn't give it five stars but I had to give it four because BIG GIRLS RULE! I was totally with Grace. Like her, I've felt invisible and been interested in men who saw me as nothing more than a friend. I commiserated with her about knowing men don't flirt with big women. Just like her I tend to admit my weight issues before anyone can thrust them on me. It really makes you oblivious to the men who might truly be interested. I love that she wasn't wimpy.

I wanted to try a Lori Foster, as I have heard good things, and on Amazon people were raving it was over-the-top sexy, a plus 10 rating. Sooo...... But, for me it was just Meh.

It just didn't work for me like I wanted it to. The sexy scenes were kind of mechanical, and the heroine's constant inner lament "I'm Fat" got really, really boring. Also I wasn't buying the 25 year old virgin bit, especially since she is supposedly drop dead gorgeous in his eyes. Would have been more realistic, not to men...more

Although I absolutely adored the basic premise of this story line, the execution of it fell short for me. The two main h/h were just sweet enough to eek three stars out of me (but just barely!) This is one of those stories where so much could have been done to really flesh out each of the characters, but the author just tosses out cliches and a bit of humor and expects the reader to simply exert his/her own affinity towards each character's trials and tribulations.

This is such a great story. It's steamy in a nice way - hot but not prone to some of the ridiculous neo-medical descriptions some erotica resort to. This also has a nice story, and most of the main characters are great also. The grandmother is a manipulative, stupid old witch, and the ex is a limp, wet kipper, and I do think a more satisfying ending would have been the two of them pushed down a well together, but I guess the actual ending is more like real life.

I didn't like how they continued to stay so focused on Grace's weight. If he was so ok with it, the wording chosen seemed less than positive at times. Fleshy, plump, etc got a little redundant and distracting. I enjoyed the fact he fell for a 'real' woman but it didn't have to be so focused on it, if it wasn't a deal for him. I can see Grace focusing on it, but for him to see it and acknowledge it over and over again seemed to take away from the romance of it. I liked Ben's character a lot and w...more

Noah and Grace had great chemistry and were very sexy together.

I felt that Grace was the perfect combination of sweet and shy but always stayed true to herself. She was opinionated and very strong willed even though she struggled with her insecurities she never let feeling awkward or embarrassed stop her from speaking her mind. So many female leads who struggle with their weight seem like such push overs, just taking whatever they can get and never speaking their mind. But not Grace, she never hesitated to speak her mind no matter what. She didn't care if she embarrassed herself or ruffled a few feathers, it didn't matter how it made her look as long as she did what she thought was right. Grace was really relatable and likable. Everything about Grace seemed genuine and realistic. Her insecurities about her weight, her inexperience with men, her embarrassment resulting in an outburst temper; the things she felt and they way she reacted to things were that of a real person and understandable. I could relate to how she struggled to stand up for herself at times but she had no problem standing up for the people she cares for. It's always easier to see in others what you can't see in yourself.

I will concede that maybe with a different leading man, Grace may have come a crossed as weak, but not so in this case. Grace fell for her perfect match. Noah was strong and caring. He liked to feel he was in control but was never over the top overbearing and never tried to make Grace bend to his will (exempt when she took a job as a waitress and he didn't want men ogling her, but even then he never tried to force her hand). The two were so compatible, both longed to feel apart of a family, caring and supportive of each other, they fed off each other nicely and seemed to understand each other so well they knew what the other needed and had no problem giving it to them.

I do wish there would have been more character development though. Especially with Noah, I wanted to know more about their back stories. (less)

Being voluptuous myself, I found myself cheering for the curvy heroine but even I got sick and tired of the author bringing her body shape up in almost every paragraph. It did my head in.

Cute. Grace and Noah are a great pair, but Ben really steals the show. I loved him the best. Yes, the content was steamy, but it was not overdone so that Grace and Noah did not have enough time to build a relationship. Grace started off pretty nice, but she did not make a lasting impression on me. Noah was the perfect man and was the right bit the jealous lover. Kara was kinda dumb and consistently pissed me off, despite the fact that she was a "good person".

He wanted everything that concerned Grace to be his business. He wanted to know that she was safe and happy and that she was…his.

This was such a cute story. Take one very sexy Alpha hero and add a very cute, lovable, and kind heroine and you got a one very enjoyable story. Before you ask, or assume, yes, this is very predictable, but who cares, right? Sometimes you just want to read something for the fun and enjoyment of it without having to worry about what’s about to happen. This is definitely one of those books. No angst. No love triangle. No cheating. This was just a simply delightful read. Plus it didn’t hurt that the steam factor was off the hook either ;)

Noah raised his head and gave her a tender look. She was flushed, damp with perspiration, open and yielding and hot. Sweet, amazing Grace.

Grace is just lovable. She’s no skinny-minnie, nor is she drop dead gorgeous, but she’s no ugly duckling either; she would be classified as cute. However, Grace is kind, sweet, and adorable. Her biggest attribute, at least to me, is that she’s downright loyal. When things start to head south for Noah, her long time crush and her employer’s grandson, she’s immediately at his side, defending him.

Noah must be a cheater. That’s the only reason why he would break off his engagement, right? Hell no. It was his fiancé’s that was caught cheating. However, he offered to keep her indiscretion a secret to maintain her pristine reputation. But keeping this reason a secret has negative backlash. Aside from his brother, Ben, no one believes he’s innocent, that is until Grace shows up at his door.

“I want sex. Hot, wet, grinding sex. I want a woman who’s willing to give me her body, in any way I want it. But until I get everything else squared away, that’s all I want. No commitments. And God only knows how long that’ll take.” ~ Noah Harper

So Noah makes Grace a deal, but the more time they spend together, the closer they become. The lines are getting blurry and both Noah and Grace are trying to keep their feelings in check, but to no avail. Of course the ending was inevitable, but it was just fine with me. Noah and Grace made such an adorable couple. Noah’s protectiveness and possessiveness over Grace was sweet and incredibly hot at the same time. I really enjoyed this story and looking forward to Ben’s story in the near future. (less)

Noah is a dominating alpha male but has seemingly been keeping this well hidden. Since he has split from his uptight fiance, he has decided that he has had enough of behaving as other people think he should. He was all set to marry someone he didn't even love because of it and is glad to have had his eyes opened before it was too late.

Grace is a good girl and always has been. She is incredibly caring and hard working, and is completely unafraid to speak her mind when necessary. She fell in love with Noah from the very moment she met him. When Noah comes under attack from friends of the family and relatives after his relationship split, Grace will not put up with people bad mouthing him because she knows that Noah would have a good reason for such a split.

Noah has always liked Grace because she warm, gentle and genuine, but now that he's single he's starting to wonder why he hadn't really noticed her before in that way. He's determined to have Grace HIS way and there will be nothing polite about it! And Grace is more than willing to give him whatever he wants, however he want's it. Poor foolish Noah, he thinks he can have Grace and get her out of his system then just move on...but quite simply, the more he gets - the more he wants.

I loved these two together. Grace is absolutely fearless and I loved that about her. She stands up for herself and other people, and she certainly gives as good as she gets in the bedroom despite her lack of experience. Noah is a little less straight forward for me because I can't possibly imagine how he got together with Kara in the first place. But I loved how hot he got for Grace - he just could not keep his paws off her!

The love scenes are reasonably hot. Not enough to set my hair on fire but still steamy enough to be pleasing.

Noah's brother Ben is a great Character and he had great chemistry with both Grace and his brother - I'm looking forward to reading his story next.

4 star contemporary romance

I read this book a long time back and whilst browsing through a discussion forum on Amazon, I once again came across this title and had the itch to read it all over again. Lori Foster is an author who writes great stories with lots of humor injected into the romance which makes reading the book a more memorable one. And yes, the sensuality level of her novels are off the charts as well!

Noah is one of the bastard grand sons of Agatha, a woman who is as rich as she is aristocratic. Whilst Noah's father had made no claims on any of his sons, Agatha searches Noah out when her son dies leaving her bereft and without a family to leave everything she has. Although Agatha puts her pride before everything else, she teaches Noah everything about doing business she knows. Noah has his life all mapped out and goes along with his grandmother’s plans of marrying Kara, his fiance of more than a year, whom he finds in bed with another man going at each other like crazy. Noah calls off the wedding but in consideration to Kara’s feelings and fears that her parents wouldn’t accept the person with whom she has fallen in love with, Noah takes the brunt of all accusations and criticism on putting a stop to a wedding that would have rocked the city.

Grace Jenkins, secretary of Noah’s grandmother for the past three years, who has loved Noah ever since she set her eyes on him, is outraged when she hears that all the blame has been placed at Noah’s feet. Knowing Noah, Grace knows that he wouldn’t have called off the wedding unless he had a very compelling reason to do so. Such trust and faith from someone whom Noah never even expected, Noah finds himself lured towards the gentle and loving nature behind the no nonsense facade Grace puts up. Its inevitable that Noah and Grace end up in bed with one another when Grace has been yearning for Noah ever since she met him.

With Agatha meddling all the way to get Noah and Kara back together, thinking she knows whats in the best interest of her grandson, and Grace fighting for Noah’s honor every step of the way, this story makes a highly entertaining read, one thats quite easy to read in one sitting. Recommended for those who love a feisty heroine who is not of the perfect dolled out variety usually found in romance novels, and a scorching hot hero who is guaranteed to make your toes curl.

But I don't know, something about the dialogue and the characters sort of annoyed me in this one. Maybe it was Noah constantly reminding Grace about their agreement that she concedes to his will in the bedroom. Or it could have been Noah's ex-fiancee whose constant crying and whining was just bordering on making me nauseous. Oh well, I'll see how the next one is.

Lori Foster is the epitome of terrible writers— at least from what I’ve read in this sorry excuse for a novel. The book’s only redeeming quality is the sex, which isn’t saying much at all since even that was written awkwardly, as if the author woke up one day, wrote a novel, and self-published it. That’s how disgustingly vomit-inducing this was for me.

Noah was always making sure that Grace knew she was beautiful to him......I related to Grace on many levels, sometimes not easy in a romance novel, but I have a "Noah" of my own & I was rooting for their passion to turn into love.
