I was given Passion Creek and loved the\u00a0aesthetics of the cover. The cover told me a lot. I understood going in that it was erotica, so, note to others, this book is for adult eyes only! It took me a few hours to read and was a lovely way to forget all my troubles. I&#8217;m not a huge fan of erotica so the sex was a touch much for me. But, I&#8217;m a big girl, I simply skipped some parts, very well written steamy as heck scenes (note, didn&#8217;t skip them all) LOL\u00a0. The story was well told and the characters well written. I loved that she wrote a strong female lead and paired her with a hot handsome male who was also very vulnerable. The backstory of the treasure that was yet to be found kept it interesting. I give it a 4 out of 5 stars. A good story that allowed me to enjoy the journey that Josie and Sam took me on! Thank you Avery for a great read!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow<\/strong><a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.averyflynn.com\" target=\"_blank\"> Blog<\/a>\/ <a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\" http:\/\/twitter.com\/#%21\/averyflynn\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> \/ <a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\" http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Avery-Flynn\/177161972329973\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n<div>Purchase<\/div>\n<div><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=myuent09-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B006T5AJ5G\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\"><\/iframe><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=myuent09-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B0055UZ9UG\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div>Passion Creek<\/div>\n<div><iframe style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"http:\/\/rcm.amazon.com\/e\/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=myuent09-20&amp;o=1&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B00947WLUC\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"320\" height=\"240\"><\/iframe>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\" https:\/\/www.allromanceebooks.com\/product-passioncreek-929019-149.html\" target=\"_blank\">All Romance Ebooks<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"This external link will open in a new window\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\" http:\/\/www.evernightpublishing.com\/passion-creek-by-avery-flynn\/\" target=\"_blank\">Evernight Publishing<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\" http:\/\/www.promotionalbooktours.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/AveryFlynnHeadShotEmail.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-732\" title=\"AveryFlynnHeadShotEmail\" src=\" http:\/\/www.promotionalbooktours.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/AveryFlynnHeadShotEmail.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"421\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Avery Flynn is a pseudonym for the author who, at least for now, prefers to<br \/>\nremain behind the scenes.
