Bare (Love in Manhattan Book 2) Kindle Edition

The first and last one-night stand I had ended with zero orgasms for me and my wallet gone.
I fell asleep after the man who called himself Kent rolled off of me and out of my life.
The only thing he left behind was a business card on the floor next to the bed.
Griffin Kent. Attorney at Law.
Since I don’t know a soul in New York, I head straight to the jerk’s office on Madison Avenue to get back my wallet and reclaim my pride.
I’m not prepared for what happens when I arrive at the prestigious law firm of Kent & Colt.
I doubt that the real Griffin Kent would leave a woman unsatisfied in any way. He’s tall, dark haired and dangerously handsome. He’s also the complete opposite of the imposter I spent the night with.
The arrogant attorney orders his assistant to help me, but he’s the one who enrolls in the art class I came to Manhattan to teach.
He may be my student, but something tells me that Griffin is going to be schooling me in the art of seduction.

Author’s Note: This sexy standalone novel contains a dirty talking attorney, nude male models and a touching HEA. Although some characters from my previous books appear in BARE, you don’t have to read any of my other books to enjoy this breathtaking romance in the Love in Manhattan series.

Editorial Reviews

From the Author

The Just This Once series features four couples that meet because of a one-night stand. Not each couple in this series of standalones has a one-night stand, but their paths cross because of a chance encounter. You won't find a cliffhanger in sight but be prepared to be swept off your feet.

About the Author

New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Deborah Bladon, has never read a romance hero she didn't like. Her love for romance novels began when she was old enough to board the bus, library card in hand to check out the newest Harlequin paperbacks. She's a Canadian by heart, and by passport, but you can often spot her in New York City sipping a latte and looking for inspiration for her next story. Manhattan is definitely her second home.

She cherishes her family and believes that each day is a gift for writing, for reading, and for loving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Griffin and Piper
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2018

I am so in love with this one! I love this author and each time I remember why. She gives a hero you fall for, a hero that goes after his heroine full force, and a heroine who is strong and relatable.

I loved Piper. She is a artist, brand new to NYC. She has fallen to a con-artist but doesn't let that rob her of her dream. She has a big heart, she doesn't hold grudges, and she's compassionate.

Griffin is a divorce attorney. He has every reason to be jades and pessimistic about love and relationships but he still keeps himself open for Piper. He wants this woman so much that is willing to fight off every instinct he has that love at it's purest really does exist.

The chemistry between these two is off the charts and the steamy scenes were at times very intense.

This was another 5 star read for me by Ms. Bladon, hands down. It is a fun, beautiful, sexy, love story. I am more than excited for Sebastian and Matilda and I hope we don't have to wait long for the fun to come with those two!

Bare is another favorite book by Deborah Bladon..... The story of Griffen and Piper is hot, keeps you reading until the very end, but it also introduces characters that Deborah develops in such a way that you are waiting for their books next. Deborah is a must buy author for me and the books she writes as installments of a story end at such a point in the story that I almost groan out loud when I realize I have to wait for the rest of the story. Bare, like all of her books is a fantastic read.

Cute and quick easy, fun read. FMC is very likeable, unlike the MMC. He's kind of a jerk, but thankfully, the book isn't very long.

Reviewed in France on December 2, 2019

I wasn’t wowed but it was nice. Slow burn at first then it accelerated. Little drama, nice characters, quick read. It lacks some depth, that’s for sure and I was a bit disappointed by the sex scenes in regards to the first real heavy exchange between the 2 protagonists. But all in all, it was pleasant.

I really enjoyed this book, it has a well thought out storyline that was interesting, kept me captivated and not able to put the book down until the very last word.
Loved the ups and downs, highs and lows. The twists and suspense were perfect.
Loved the nude sketch class, Rufus’s replacement had me laughing.
Lots of sexual tension and steamy scenes.
Overall a great read

4.0 out of 5 stars Griffin and Piper
Reviewed in Canada on April 8, 2018

Who’d have thought a bad night would lead to meeting someone you cannot get out of your head.

Piper thought she was confronting the bad guy but she was meeting someone entirely different. Griffin cannot get Piper out of his head, so he signs up for her bare art class.

It’s chemistry instantly, but she won’t be so easy. This couple is a classic push and pull.

I enjoyed this story. Beautiful friendship, sexual tension, career blossoming, and moving forward. Not a lot of drama, the story is
