Book Reviews of Thirteen HoursBook Review: I LOVE THIS FREAKING BOOK! Summary: 5 Stars
This book was too good. It almost made me rethink writing for a little bit. It's pretty much about a lonely, bitchy, workaholic and very closeted woman named Dana who gets a lapdance from a really hot stripper with a phenomenal pair of breasts as a birthday present from an AWESOME friend named Scott. Then an angry,surprised (and very turned on) Dana gives her an earful, commanding her to put her clothes back on and get out of her office. When the stripper does so, Dana insists on escorting her out of the building. So they get into the elevator and it gets stuck. Dana and Laurel the stripper are stuck in the small room for 13 hours. During this time, they learn a lot about one another. Dana stops being too afraid to live and Laurel basically charms her way into Dana's "power dyke suit". After they get out of the elevator, they pursue a serious relationship. And it works out for them happily ever after. I loved this book because it revealed the changes that they both endured in order to be ready to be in a relationship with another person. THis was a very funny book with quite a few gems. Dana's comment "Come like a ninja" about masturbating in her parent's house with her room being in between her brother's and her parents' was one of them. Throughout this book, I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, much like Dana and Laurel. But that's the best part. No fallout! I would advise anyone to get this book. And if I ever meet a Scott who gives me as awesome a gift as Dana's, he'd be my best friend forever.
Summary of Thirteen HoursCan you fall in love in thirteen hours?
It's her birthday but lonely workaholic Dana Watts is at the office late, drafting a proposal. The very last interruption she expects comes in the form of the most beautiful breasts she has ever seen. These belong to an incredibly hot woman, who is standing in front of her, stripping to music.
Laurel Stanley performs strip-o-grams to pay her way through school. She has never encountered a more ungrateful recipient than Dana. The uptight project manager makes it clear that she is furious to be distracted from her work by the "gift" a colleague sent and equally appalled by Laurel's occupation.
After Dana is rude and insulting, and insists on escorting Laurel from the building, the two women take an elevator ride that changes everything. Stuck with each other for thirteen long hours after the elevator breaks down, they discover how wrong first impressions can be and how right two strangers can feel together.
Can everything change in less than a day? Dana and Laurel set out to discover if their passionate elevator encounter can mean more in this fast-paced, erotic story of lust, loneliness, fantasy, and desire.
