FROM THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE LOVING ON THE EDGE NOVELS, THE FIRST IN A SENSUAL NEW SERIES
Overtime has never felt so good…
Marin Rush loves studying sex. Doing it? That’s another story. In the research lab, Marin’s lack of practical knowledge didn’t matter, but now that she’s landed a job at The Grove, a high-end, experimental sex therapy institute, she can’t ignore the fact that the person most in need of sexual healing may be her.
Dr. Donovan West, her new hotshot colleague, couldn’t agree more. Donovan knows that Marin’s clients are going to eat her alive unless she gets some hands-on experience. And if she fails at the job, he can say goodbye to a promotion, so he assigns her a list of R-rated tasks to prepare her for the wild clientele of The Grove’s X-wing.
But some of those tasks are built for two, and when he finds Marin searching for a candidate to help her check off her list, Donovan decides there’s only one man for the job—him. As long as they keep their erotic, off-the-clock activities strictly confidential and without strings, no one will get fired—or worse, get attached…

My Review
I have been meaning to read one of Roni Loren’s books for a while now. I actually have four of her books already in my bookcases, but just haven’t made time to. I finally got a chance to read one of her books and it’s apart of her new series.
Roni Loren had me from the first page of Off the Clock, which I knew I was going to have a hard time putting down this book. The characters alone had me intrigued. Roni starts the book off from the past, where Marin and Donovan first meet. The best way to describe Marin and Donovan is lots of sexual tension, some drama, and lots and lots of steamy scenes. OH my, the steamy scenes were STEAMY!
Donovan was one sexy unforgettable male character that I couldn’t stop reading about in Off the Clock. He even had a unique nickname that the ladies had gave him and believe me he lives up to it.
I adored Marin’s character just as much as Donovan. Marin is one determined female character, who wants to succeed in life. Both her and Donovan have gone through a lot in life. They both needed some time for fun and romance. 🙂
I loved the storyline as much as the characters in the story because I’ve never read a story like this one. Roni delivered a very steamy, intense romance book that will have you up all night to finish it. At least that is what happened to me. I give this book 5 stars and look forward to diving into the rest of the Pleasure Principle series because I know each book is going to be just as amazing as Off the Clock.
Now I need to make time to read every book Roni Loren has ever written. I have determined 2016 will be the year of catching up on Roni Loren’s books. 🙂
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
