Aurora is a chauffeur for Executive Decisions, an escort service, and two of the banes of her life are Storm and Jason Knight, escorts and werewolf pack brothers. For six years she’d been driving the sexy wolf brothers to their dates and trying to keep it all on a professional basis. The latest job requires her to get them to a romantic cabin in Alaska for their date, only to find the woman has fled because of a blizzard and the three of them are snowed in and stranded. What is torment for her is opportunity for the oh-so-sexy werewolves who have been patiently waiting for just this kind of chance!

Executive Decisions: Hidden Agenda is a fun, mischievous and loving story. From uptight Aurora to shamelessly sexy werewolves, you are instantly comfortable with and engaged by the characters. I was intrigued by the idea of a paranormal escort service, and the descriptive language was captivating. Ms. Karland has a smooth, balanced kind of writing style that keeps the story and dialogue flowing. All the right notes are hit at all the right time.

When I first read the publisher’s note that the book contained sexually explicit scenes, I had some misgivings as to whether I was the appropriate reviewer for the book. My personal preferences range somewhere between old fuddy duddy and a little spice is nice, but I was hooked by the first two paragraphs. This is my definition of an “easy read”. It is easy to pick up and read and impossible to put down until the end – at which point you squawk, “That’s all? More, I want more!”

I wistfully wish that the author would consider writing similar books for us NQFDs (not quite fuddy duddies). I would dearly love to devour her books without having to peek through my fingers at some of the scenes. For those who are more liberated and less repressed than myself, I encourage you to jump right in and wallow in the hotness, and I do mean capital H - Hotness! I also wistfully request that if Ms. Karland has an extra unmated, single-minded werewolf to spare, please send him to my house.
