Overview

One week of mind-blowing sex on a beautiful Caribbean island. Of all the business proposals financial tycoon Dominic Saxon has heard, Taylor Steele's is definitely the most tempting. All Taylor wants in return is for Dominic to father her baby. No strings, no commitments...just a mutually satisfying arrangement. Make that very satisfying. For a man with no intention of marrying again, it sounds ideal.
Taylor wants a baby, not a relationship. And sexy, intelligent Dominic seems like a man with perfect genes. Turns out, Dominic has perfect everything. Their "procreation vacation" is a whirlwind of sensual ecstasy. But when it's over, will either of them be able to say goodbye?

    Um... a bit too unbelievably sizzling hot? Not a lot of romance but lots of... er... action? But it was an amusing read. hehehe... Enjoy!

  • 3 stars out of 5WHOA! "Action" packed!

    Posted May 06, 2009 by Berenice, Gilbert, AZ

    I'd never read a romance novel, I'm more your murder mystery type reader but reading this book was like reading porn! LOL! It was a nice change from my dark books.

  • 1 star out of 5Excruciatingly badly written

    Posted May 21, 2009 by M. D. Benoit, Ottawa

    I don't expect literature but, in this case, I've rarely read a book that badly written. ("He looked down at her with his eyes.") The story in itself is different and intriguing but goes on and on with such a predictable ending that I ended up skipping whole sections. Not to mention that the main squeeze and his family are supposed to be French but all have Italian first names (Dominic, Marcello, Franco instead of Dominique, Marcel, Francois). The sex scenes? Implausible.

  • 1 star out of 5Romance or Erotica?

    Posted June 21, 2009 by Ashley, Chicago

    Not only was this book poorly written, it was basically soft-core porn. Generally, when you're looking in the romance genre, you expect a bit of romance -- in this book, there's an overabundance of sex and very little (if any) romance. The entire plot was unrealistic. While I am more than willing to suspend disbelief when reading a book, this plot just went beyond normal suspension of disbelief. The author could have cut out half the sex scenes and still had too many. There was no character development, no real conflict. In the end, I couldn't have cared less if the characters got together or died. Worth reading as a free book? Maybe. I would never pay money to read this trash.

  • 1 star out of 5Well, I hope this is an aberration...

    Posted July 01, 2009 by TFrank, California

    I really wanted to like this book. I understood from the summary that the book would be about conceiving a baby, so the sex, sex and more sex didn't bother me. What did make the book almost painful to read was the poor writing. I hope this is an aberration for this author, that she was under a deadline. Or stress. Or duress. It's just that poorly written. I'm sorry, Ms. Jackson. I'll give your work another try one day. Fortunately, it was a free e-book, so nothing ventured and, well, you know the rest....

Excerpt from: Irresistible Forces by Brenda Jackson

Ababy.Taylor Steele's heart began beating rapidly the way it always did whenever she thought about her most ardent desire. A mixture of relief and anticipation soared through her upon realizing that she was about to embark upon a phase in her life that she had been looking forward to for a long time.Motherhood.She leaned back in the chair behind her desk and stared out the window while tapping her fingertips against her bottom lip. For the first time she wasn't appreciating the view of the Lincoln Memorial. Her thoughts were on something else entirely. She was inwardly counting her blessings.During this past year she had achieved a number of her goals. First by venturing out and starting up her own wealth and asset management firm, which she named Assets of Steele, and then moving from New York to the nation's capital and purchasing a beautiful condo with a view of the Potomac River from her bedroom window. That wasn't at all bad for a twenty-five-year-old woman who'd made the decision after college not to return to her hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina, and work for her family's multimillion-dollar manufacturing company. Instead she had set her sights on New York after accepting a position with one of the major banks as a wealth and asset manager.Now she could turn her attention to the final stage of her plan that she needed in place before making her most sought-after dream a reality. And that was the man she had chosen to father her child without the benefit of marriage. She was even open to joint custody of the child, if he wanted to go that route.A permanent hookup with someone was not what she wanted, not even a teeny-tiny bit. Nor was she looking for a long-term lover, either. A short-term one could handle the task intended quite nicely. The last thing she wanted was a long-term romantic commitment of any kind.But she was selective.She had decided very early in her plans that not just any man would do. It had to be someone with all the qualities she wanted to pass on to her off-spring. He had to be handsome, intelligent, caring, healthy and wealthy. Definitely wealthy; after all, wealth was her business. And with those "must-have" qualifications embedded deep in her mind, she could think of only one man who met her criteria.Dominic Saxon.She tried ignoring the warmth of sensations that seeped through her veins. Dominic was one of her clients and she had never met a man who radiated so much sensuality. Part African-American and part French, at thirty-four he was the epitome of every woman's fantasy and a major player in numerous women's nightly dreams. The sexiness was there in his looks, his body, when he walked, talked or just plain stared at you. He was definitely the most gorgeous man she'd ever encountered. Besides that, she knew from the many charities he was associated with that he was highly intelligent and caring. And although she wasn't privy to his health records, she had no reason to think he wasn't in the best of health and could not father a child. The man was as virile as any man could get.From the very beginning she had been attracted to him and for the past two years it had taken everything she had to keep their relationship strictly business, although he'd never given her the impression he expected anything else. Whenever they met he was always professional and courteous. She knew that he merely saw her as one of his employees and nothing more. He was paying a hefty fee for the services she rendered and her job was to take all the wealth he'd accumulated in his thirty-four years and make him richer, which wasn't hard since he was an ace at making the most of every financial opportunity.It was common knowledge that he was the son of a wealthy Frenchman and his beautiful African-American wife, and from the time Dominic was born he'd had the best of everything—schools, social contacts and money, and he'd used all three to his benefit. He rotated resid
