Summerita Rhyane’s 'Against All Rules', is one huge ball of passion, coated with a generous dose of erotica and romance! The story set in the backdrop of an office brings together a PA, Samara, who harbours a secret crush towards her boss, Tahir, who by the way, is in no mood for another relationship, except the one that begins and ends in bed, while she dreams of a life together. Our heroine will accept no less and the hero will give no more. What follows is a virtual tug of war- of raw emotions, unmanifested desires, and the struggle to stay and keep the self and the other in control. How the protagonists manage to come to terms with their inner demons and let love into their lives forms the base of the story.
Every time the couple come together, sparks fly and hearts melt, your own heart beats wildly and as you want the fire in their kiss to lead to something more, but there’s always a conflict that douses the fire and you are left wanting more! (Can you imagine a panting dog, tongue hanging out, dripping with saliva? Yeah, that’s what I meant!) The writing is very good and you can almost feel that sensual tension between the couple and when they finally get together, it is difficult to not let out a sigh of relief! Phew!
The intimate scenes between the couple are hot (really hot!), very sensually written, but definitely not vulgar. The language is faultless though the beginning chapters have some repetitive phrases. The scenes are very vivid and one can easily imagine them as they read on. The writing flows beautifully though the end might be a little predictable. But then again, isn’t ‘happily ever after’, the only way we want our love stories to end?
The blurb:
Samara knows getting attracted to Tahir is asking for trouble. He is her boss, he's got divorced recently and really, she should be concentrating on her career. In any case, embittered by his failed marriage, he has sworn off any commitment. All he wants is short term and that is NOT on her list. But has temptation ever been stronger?
Tahir doesn't want his office protocol disturbed. But Samara might just make him make an exception! When she finds him drunk one evening, things heat up between them. A temporary affair seems a solution to this inconvenient attraction but it's hard to make his PA think along the same lines as he does.
In office and out of it, their codes govern their lives but rules are now having a face-off with desire.
...when the fire is set, it's hard to avoid the blaze.

I must confess. Neither romance nor erotica is something that immensely enjoy reading nor writing; but your review is quite interesting. As to whether I pick it up or not, i think i need a little bit more of a nudge :P
ReplyDeleteThis was my first too Sid, I mean the erotica, but I was pleasantly surprised that the writing was never vulgar, just quite sensual.
DeleteCurrently reading (and enjoying) this! You are right - it is a little repetitive in the beginning, but the story picks up pace, and one gets invested in how it turns out.
ReplyDeleteoh, you are? yea, after the first few chapters, I loved the pace too.
DeleteSounds interesting. Will check it out sometimes soon!
