Tawny is a very successful business owner. She runs a billion dollar spandex line with male models. Now her cheating husband wants to take half her business in their divorce. But Tawney isn't having it. No sex for three months. When hot and oh so sexY Cole is sent to seduce her, things get twisted and heated. This was a hot sexy romantic suspense that brings on the heat. Lynn Hammond knows how to bring on the heat. No sugar coating here. Her books need a so hot it burns warning label.

Surprise Steamer was alot of Fun!
Well, that was a surprise! I'm not the biggest fan of the genre, but I liked the role reversal of having the woman be the billionaire instead. And the steamy action got started right away, hooking me in.
But boy, I wasnt expecting the hectic twists and turns of the plot as it delved into a full blown thriller! SPOILER - I loved the dive scene, when she pulled that chest from out of the pond....oooh, I was on edge! I highly recommend for romance fans who love a good "gotcha" story.

Who doesn't love a sexy steamy romance with a bit of suspense and a dash of intrigue? Lustful Money delivers just enough push and pull between the main characters while also providing an interesting storyline to build up the nail-biting tension. A fun read for those who enjoy billionaire type romance stories, especially the fun twist from the female pov. Quick and dirty, it's an easy read.

Honestly this was an average read for me. It started off as straight smut material. Tawney is the owner of a spandex business, she is in a nasty divorce from Ben who actually cheated on her with her best friend. According to the story, she cant have sex while she is waiting for the divorce to go through.... in what world! Once you cheat you got no dibs on anything that I have. Then Ben sends Cole over to seduce her, and she falls for it immediately. And he starts falling for her immediately, and they have sex immediately. I really felt like the whole story just was dumped on my head.
I will say that once the adventure came into play the story became so much better! I really felt like Cole would have done everything in his power to help Tawney. I wish there was more back story or deeper story but the ending did save it for me.

I love to listen to books on text-to-speech while I do domestic chores - it helps my mind escape the drudgery - and this one was the perfect length for getting the dishes washed and the kitchen cleaned. A quick lust-fix turns into a happy ever after for this couple, but not before they have to endure their fair share of drama, and Tawney particularly is going to need some counselling after some of the crap her soon-to-be-ex puts her through. Poor woman can't catch a break, till she does and he gets his comeuppance. I really liked Cole as a character, a good guy who sticks to his principles when it matters and comes through for the girl in the end. The female characters could pretty much run their own season of a day-time soap, but all have their own redeeming factors too. A good story line that kept me engaged from start to finish.

My first read for Lynn's book. I was hooked from the beginning. The story of Tawnie and trying to get through her divorce and continuing her business. She is surrounded by men. She is the billionaire but her Ex wants it all. Ben, the cheater, has a few secrets of his own and they all come to light. Her ex best friend, Clarissa, got her man to get her pregnant.
Cole, model/bounty hunter, secretly hired to trick Tawney. But something happened and he realizes Tawnie is not the bad girl. Read this book so you enjoy the development between Cole and Tawney's relationship and Ben's secrets...

This has to be my favorite story of Lynn's thus far. Lynn is a straight to the point woman, and I can see that part of her in the character Tawney. Not putting up with anyone's shit, no pussyfootin' around the truth, independent woman, even when Cole is sent along to knock her off her feet. Literally. The twists in this read draw you in, making you want to race to the end to see where it will take you. Be sure to check out the start to her newest series.

Wow what an exciting read! I wasn't prepared for such an employer/employee relationship. That is some job. Anyway, great read and it does have a twist and a plot towards the end.

My review so far: Lustful Money is a new release for upcoming author Lynn Hammond. I was drawn in by the cover alone. I can't get over how eye catching it is. The colors are bright and vibrant just like Lynn and her writing. She is a fresh flower blooming all the time and each sentence, paragraph and book gets better and better. Her words flow and draw you in. Before I could look up I was finished. But let's get right to the review shall we?
Tawney runs her on business of male models who showcase her briefs line and gets contracts for books, billboards and anything else to feature the sexy men on. The perfect job, right? She has worked hard and it's taken her years to build her successful little empire. She is finally happy. I mean if anyone deserves it, Tawney does. She has a horrible ex-best friend that is a cheater and liar along with the deception of her spineless ex-husband Ben. Trust is not something that has come easy to Tawney. Like everyone says " trust has to be earned not given." Well sometimes you get sucked into letting your guard down. That is when you get hurt.
Cole Jackman was hired to do a job. He just didn't know that meeting Tawney and modeling for her would make his blood boil and the attraction is too great to not take notice. Can he even continue to do the job? Probably not but for right now he wants her between his legs and under his sheets. He was hired to dig up dirt on her but from who and why? He has some issues of his own. A ex girlfriend that just won't let go. She shows up and expects him to take her to bed. After Cole meets Tawney he just can't shake the attraction that Tawney may just be it for him. He has to remember she is a job. You get in and get out. All about the money. Lustful Money to be exact.

A quick and lustful read, as spandex millionaire, Tawney, must abstain for another three months, because if she is found out having sex, she will have to share her fortune with her awful ex. And when Cole turns up… well… and on top of the problem of her desire for him is the fact that she is just another job to him, and he is setting her up so that her ex can make a claim on her fortune. But not every plan works true, and soon things take on a life of their own. An enjoyable read, that sizzles at times, and works up to an explosive climax!

An erotic story with brains
What starts of as erotic story about Tawney, a soon to be divorced photographer, starts a sexual relationship with Cole but he he is not all he seems. Cue a lot of twists and turns as secrets are revealed that include Tawney’s Ex and it’s a rollercoaster ride until the end. For an erotic story the sex scenes are explicit which is what you would expect for this genre but then the thriller aspect is quite smart and keeps you guessing until the grand finale

I think I just read a middle-aged housewife's ultimate fantasy. The story started off with me almost giving up on it until we discover the hero actually does something macho for a living. But even though I believe the woman (Tawny) is on the younger side and fit, I couldn't shake the image of a middle-aged and not so fit character out of my mind's eye. Oh well, it was an enjoyable story none-the-less.

Wow. The chemistry between the two MCs Cole and Tawney is hot, hot, hot. When we find out the reason Cole is in Tawney’s life, I was shocked - didn’t see that coming. From then on there are so many unexpected plot twists and turns, with interconnected relationships cleverly woven in. The drama build and builds right to the end, and the HEA is just swoony. Cole is one book boyfriend every romance reader should meet.

I love novels with strong female leads and this one was no different. Tawney is a strong woman who is dealing with a messy divorce when she meets Cole, a model that has her doubting her decision. But is he all she thought he was? I’ll let you read to find that out.
This was a great book with suspense, steam and so much more. I look forward to more by the author.

Loved this book
Was drawn in right from the beginning. Tawney, a self made, rich professional, trying her best to recoup after finding her husband was a cheating dick... Cole, hired to have her cheat on her soon to be ex, so that he would be entitled to half her fortune... But Cole discovers things are not what the seem and reneges on the deal... Does love conquer all?

Love love loved!! Just when you think you know what's going to happen Lynn throws something totally different at you!!! Cole was 🔥🔥🔥. Crazy Ex, crappy BF, twists and turns, and so many secrets. Was a fantastic read!!!
November 20, 2019
I don't know if it's just because I had such a connection to a previously read book, or if I just am not in the mood for a novel such as this one- but I did not feel the pull to this novel that I normally do when I am reading a new novel. I will definitely have to try again later.
