Lust In Translation #5
Lie with Me
The only thing hotter than the Greek sun is the two of them...
Corfu's exotic beaches are a matchless place to meet true love…or at least to have a fabulous fling! And that's exactly what Philly Angelis needs. After all, she's a survivor of unrequited love…and an embarrassingly rejected sexual proposition. Fleeing to Greece to soak in its sexy magic—as well as to find a hot guy to take her mind off her longtime crush, Roman Oliver—seems the perfect antidote.
Roman can't believe what he's doing. Philly is his best friend's little sister—definitely hands-off! So why is he following her to Corfu? And why is he taking her outrageously delicious sexual proposition seriously? Maybe because Philly's all woman now—a woman who knows exactly what she wants. And, God help him, Roman's going to give it to her...

About the author
Cara Summers
188 books55 followersCarolyn Fulgenzi was born on 28 July 1940 in Detroit, Michigan, USA, daughter of Janet (McLaughlin) and Andrew Fulgenzi. She graduated from Dominican High School in Detroit and completed her undergraduate education at Catholic University of America in Washington, DC. She continued her studies attending Syracuse University receiving her Master’s in English Education. After retiring as a teacher with the Fayetteville-Manlius School District, she joined the faculty at Syracuse University as an adjunct professor in the writing department. Concurrently, she was also teaching at Onondaga Community College.
Carolyn blamed her tenth grade English teacher for nudging her into the writer's life. Sister Rose Terrence insisted that she enter a short story contest sponsored by the Detroit News, and Cara won! Of course, she was thrilled with the award -- a dictionary that still sits on her desk -- but at that time, her goal in life was to become an actress, and eventually, she attained that goal. She married Mr Hanlon, and had three sons: Kevin D., Brian A, and Brendan J. Hanlon. Only after her three sons were born that she turned her full attention to writing again. She sold her first Temptation to Harlequin in 1994, and that book, C.J.'s Defense as Carolyn Andrews, also sits on her desk -- right next to the dictionary. Since 2000, she wrote under the pseudonym of Cara Summers. She believed that her background in theater had influenced her writing, allowing her to create new characters and bring them to life for the reader. She passed away on 10 September 2013.

The switch back and forth from 1st person POV with Philly and then 3rd person within the chapters totally threw me off.
The book itself was good, and I liked the supporting characters a lot, but I definitely struggled getting through it.

The psychic cat thing didn't do it for me. It seemed to drag in some places as well. I don't know. It had the potential to be more.

3 stars -- This was one of those paperbacks from back in the day that I enjoyed enough to keep and maybe reread. And thus, I just reread it. And...it was okay. Didn't keep my interest like I'd hoped though, which is a bummer. So it will now be getting donated.
The steamy scenes were pretty good, it just sort of went fast. I think I just forgot that about Harlequins sometimes.
The pet psychic stuff was amusing and odd, but I strangely enjoyed it and what I was most wanting to know was if they would rescue Caliban. Spoiler alert: they do.

Spoilers: Turned into more of a mystery with stolen jewels and a cave. Love brother’s best friend, he felt like she was a little sister, too young.

The only reason this read got 2 stars was the sexual chemistry between the main characters, the whole psychic "I need to talk to the cat" premise seemed endless, as well as the mystery needing to be solved...I was completely bored

Could not get past the fact that she 'talked' to animals.
