Sensuality Level: Behind Closed Doors


This book wasn’t anything I expected it to be. It was short and sweet. Kind of an outrageous plot if you ask me, but it made for an adorable story. The story line was unique and as a debut novel I would say that Robyn Neeley is off to a pretty good start. Kate is an up and coming wedding planner. The novel starts with her on a plane to Hawaii where the wedding that will solidify her career will take place in three weeks. The current issue? She is terrified of flying. She’s sitting to an incredibly hot guy in first class named Drew. He gets annoyed with her and goes to coach where he strikes a deal with his IDENTICALLY HOT TWIN BROTHER is sitting. This brother, Luke, ends up going to first class to sit with Kate. He basically falls in love with her at first sight *le sigh*. However, he thinks he is too much of a wreck to comprehend that the brothers switched places so he pretends to be his brother. Then get this, to help her calm down he decides to KISS HER. Who does that? Lucky beyotch. Anyway, there are some misunderstandings but basically he doesn’t get to say bye to her before they get off the flight. Sometime later, Kate meets the couple she is planning the wedding and big surprise, it’s Drew and his fiancée Lauren. And Kate thinks she kissed Drew. Whoops. And Luke wants her. But, he thinks she thinks she has chemistry with Drew. So, the ever romantic Luke decides he has to make Kate fall in love with him by not cheating and telling her the truth. So, the craziness begins…

I thought the story was adorable. Does this stuff happen in real life? Can this be me? I liked how the story had some realistic aspects to make it relatable. I loved the Hawaiian setting. I especially loved Kate’s gay assistant, Miles. He made the book funny. Without him, I would have thrown my iPad mini more times than I did because of all the freaking misunderstandings! And the fact that the characters literally made every irrational choice they could frustrated the crap out of me. But, then that just made me want to finish the book even more because I had to see how they would get out of the insane mess they kept making. There were a lot of unrealistic aspects of this book too, however that’s where all the drama came from. It really was a quick read, so quick that I kinda wish there was a bit more angst between Kate and Luke. There was only one yummy scene! Sad face. Don’t worry though, it was pretty awesome. Luke was such a romantic and also SUCH A GUY. He made everything wayyyy worse that it needed to be. Like it was ridiculous. I wasn’t able to predict some of the things that happened in this book, especially the ending. And the unpredictability made me love it more. I need more of them! ASAP!

“His lips landed on hers, and there it was, the kiss that had shot her into another orbit the first and second time she experienced it. There was only one Cannon twin that could do this to her, and she now knew which one it was.”
