How I became Lotus Raine...the Porn Star


I refused to work my way up the company ladder by sexually favoring my sleazy boss. I was beginning to lose hope. Until one day, he surprised me with an assignment that would literally rock my world.

I never imagined my first assignment being my last. But Brent Nichols worked his way inside every way possible, unlocking something within me.

Becoming a porn star was never part of the plan. Neither was changing my name.

Everyone else knows me as Lucy Rogers, but you can call me Lotus Raine.

I have followed Erika's work pretty closely. When her first book came out, I fell in love with it and the characters. When she announced this book I was like...
I like me porn star books. I mean once and a while I need something different. What Erika gave me by far superseded my expectations! I did not expect what got from this book. I was expecting you know a day in the life of a porn star. What I got was so much more.

Lucy works for a publishing company (btw Erika nice way of inserting certain things for readers and authors LOL), she is rarely chosen to do assignments so when she finally is, its interesting. I don't want to give too much away but believe me its pretty funny.

Lucy or Lotus Raine, is quite funny and lovable. Her back story alone had me nodding my head saying "oh I get it" then quickly I learned that I didn't. There was so much more to this character. More than anyone gave her credit for, ya know until HIM....
And boy oh boy did I like him! Brent, is a very artistic and gorgeous man. He was perfect for Lucy. He brought down all her insecurities and let her figure it out on her own. He wasn't too overly possessive and I liked that about him. Now here I thought this whole thing was going to be one way and it turned out to be totally different then I expected. Oh and can I just say that secondary characters kick ass! They totes complete the story and Lucy's BFF Reggie is just that. She had me laughing so hard at times, I was like this is the single me LOL. Oh and there's also you know people you want to smack. There are two I wish I could 
Overall, I really enjoyed this book. If only for the simple reason it's so not what i thought it was going to be. It took me by surprise. I have to say that I believe this to be Erika's best book yet. I loved that it's different. Can't wait to see what she cooks up next.
