Like Rebound, Smoking Holt is extra steamy … and extra yummy. And like Kristi and Cam, Holt and Bella have known each other for years but their’s has been a more conflicted relationship. Both have had a thing for the other but neither knew it so there are a lot of misconceptions going around. Once they get that all straightened out, though, it is time to heat up the sheets … and the pool table … and the wall …

If you’ve read Rebound, then you know that Holt is into the BDSM scene so be prepared for erotic scenes in that vein. It’s not really my normal thing, but I found it hot regardless. I’m probably not going to try it at home, but it was fun reading about it and Holt is quite the sexy master.

Smoking Holt is novella length so things move quickly but it is quite enjoyable. We don’t get quite the relationship lead up that we did in Rebound but the characters are still interesting and the plot has great flow. If you are looking for a steamy read then I highly recommend this Tryst Island series. Granted I’ve only read the two but I’ve really gotten a kick out of both.
