With a hurricane closing in on Temptation, Louisiana, Michelle Thurston fails to convince her stubborn grandmother to leave her home on the bayou. Sheriff Gator Landry arrives by boat, hell-bent on forcing the elderly recluse to evacuate. He is stunned to find Michelle, who was just 16 years old when he courted her one steamy summer.

Now, at 32, Michelle comes face-to-face with the man whose kisses tempted her to lose control, only this time there is no place to run. Although Gator is not about to leave the two women defenseless, Michelle can’t help but wonder if he is more dangerous to her than anything the storm can do.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Charlotte Hughes published her first category romance in 1987, a Bantam Books' Loveswept, titled Too Many Husbands, which immediately shot to #1 on the Waldenbooks Bestseller list. She went on to write almost thirty books before the line closed in 1998.

Although Charlotte is widely known for her laugh-out-loud romantic comedies, she went on to pen three Maggie-Award winning thrillers for Avon Books in the late nineties, before resuming her first love, funny stories about people falling in love. She thrilled readers with her hilarious books, A New Attitude and Hot Shot, the latter of which won the Waldenbooks Greatest Sales Growth Achievement in 2003.

Her books received so many accolades that she was invited to co-author the very popular Full House series with mega-star author Janet Evanovich.

With that series behind her, Charlotte began her own, starring psychologist Kate Holly; What Looks Like Crazy, Nutcase, and High Anxiety, creating a list of somewhat kooky but always loveable and funny ensemble characters.

This was a great story. I immediately loved the characters of Michelle, her Grandma and Gator Landry. The story is a second chance love between Michelle and Gator who first met over a summer when she was 16 and he was 18. Before things got out of hand and too serious Michelle ran. It has been 16 years and Michelle is back in the Bayou to talk her Grandma into evacuating before a hurricane hits. Grandma will not budge because she doesn't want to leave her animals. Gator comes out to get Grands, not realizing that Michelle is there. As soon as the meet again the attraction is there. Both fight it. Gator feeling that he is not good enough for Michelle. What will it take for them to see how much they belong together?

A must read!

High school "sweethearts" (as I like to think of them) Mic and Gator reminisce their past together in the middle of a hurricane attack - remembering the love they shared 16 years ago while trying to convince Mic's grandmother to evacuate. (I personally liked Mic’s grandmother, Reba as she reminded me of my own strong-willed granny and the love she has for her granddaughter.)

The setting really gave an opening for the development of a continuing romance. The more time they spent helping the town together, the more they see each other in a whole new light.

Even after all those years, Mic and Gator haven’t really forgotten the feelings they have for each other. Seeing how both of them grew from students to what they are at present, each is secretly longing for a second shot at love and picked up where they left off and start anew. But of course, both of them have obligations of their own and these emotions are mixed up in a bottle of confusion. Is there any hope for a romantic reunion?

Welcome to Temptation will really temp you to curl your pages up one after another. It's sweet, sensual, and really fun to read.

Like a mouth full of sugar! Gator...I think that name was the first thing that attracted me to the book! Mic, this has to be the second! The fact that it is a Charlotte Hughes romance with humor was the reason I read the description at all! There is always something funny and interesting going on in her stories, how can anybody resist that?
So Gator and Mic had met years before but she was still a kid and needed time to grow up. Years later she is back in town and checking on her grandmother when they cross paths again. The feelings are still there, their bodies are still begging for relief, the attraction is undeniable. Only there are a few problems working against them. She lives hours away and has a job doing what she loves. He is certain that he isn't good enough for her anyway. He is certain that he isn't going to be good enough for anyone. Can she find it in her to move? Can he learn to believe in himself?

3.0 out of 5 stars Too much, too soon for me
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2017

I just couldn't get into it. No buildup, no comedy. To be fair I have only read the first two chapters and this is based on that.
First off, no comedy. For a book that names itself a "Romantic Comedy" I would have assumed some comedy in the first two chapters. Perhaps it comes later in the book, but the initial setup is very formulaic - stuck in a house with a storm raging outside.

Secondly, there is no buildup. No tension in the relationship. I like a good romance and fiery passion,but this one really struck me as too much too soon. "Every nerve in her body was alive with anticipation...She was sensitized to his every move-the way his chest rose and fell, the way his dark lashes fluttered when he blinked" - that is on chapter 1, page 22 (of my kindle)

Quite literally she holds herself back from her incredible teenager desire for exactly 1 page then succumbs and within a couple of pages is being kissed by him so fiercely that "Michelle could only stand there and hang on for dear life, praying her knees would not buckle beneath her."

I prefer books with some tension and developing relationships. This seems too fast and formulaic to me. Just lust at first sight.
