What happens when the rules we create for ourselves end up being the ones we most want to break? Between flying tequila bottles and auctioning off body shots, Allie McAllister knows how to work a crowd. When she isn't mixing drinks at The Guild, she devotes her spare time to teaching aspiring authors-namely, male authors-how to make women melt with nothing more than a pen and paper. The Mistress of Seduction has only three rules for her students: 1) Six months is the limit; 2) When she speaks, they listen; 3) Never, under any circumstances, are her students allowed to fall in love with her. Her newest student has a lot to learn when it comes to putting his passion to paper, but there's nothing Allie craves more than a challenge. Criminal defense attorney Adam Carlton is well aware he doesn't have a creative bone in his body. Just the same, after taking a body shot off the most beautiful spitfire he's ever seen, he has to see Allie again. But how? Then it hits him. He'll write a book. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language

Breaking all the Rules
14 Dec 2008
By M. Nix
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Alacia McAllister, better known as Allie Cat, might be bartending, but she's really a writer. At least if she can get over her writer's block and finishes another book she can continue to call herself that. In the meantime she mentors, usually male aspiring authors, on how to write stories. She has specific rules she set in place after getting burned, and hasn't broken them for any man.
Adam Carlton knows about Allie's rules. He's not above pretending to want to write so he can get in her pants. He's even more than willing to go along with all her rules. But when he falls hard and fast for her, and everything crashes around him, he finds himself caught in a struggle to win a court case, win Allie back, and not lose his job, while trying to stay sane and figure out what his ex is up to before she can wreck more havoc in his life.
Breaking All the Rules is an intense read that will have the reader wondering, what next? Allie and Adam are fun characters. Adam won my heart much faster than Allie. Some parts of the story made me want to sit her down and talk to her. Understandable, since she'd been hurt in the past, but I felt she got more upset than she should have considering all the signs had been evident. I didn't like the incidences where we were given scenes from the evil ex's view point. I really didn't care for Ericka, and didn't need those scenes. Her actions would have been obvious the minute they happened, and it only pulled me away from Adam's delicious story. Yes, Adam is the reason I read this from start to finish. Kudos to Monica Robinson for crafting such a delicious hero, I truly hope all her heroes are as wonderful as he is. I did like Allie for the most part, and her interactions with Adam. I hope Charlie gets a story because he certainly deserves one for losing the woman of his dreams to his best friend.

Rules were made to be broken?

I really enjoyed this. I wanted to smack the characters sometimes -- JUST TALK TO EACH OTHER!! But each of them thought there was a time frame for the relationship that the other was expecting, and neither wanted to cut the time short by expressing their feelings. Her reaction to his "lie" was a little bit over the top as well. It wasn't such a big lie! Plus, she'd just been told by his family how differently he was acting toward her. She knew she was special. I thought his "I'm sorry" gesture was sweet, but way too long in coming, lol. Thanksgiving to Christmas is an eternity in a new relationship! But despite these few things, I really liked the story. I liked Allie and Adam and I thought their relationship was really sweet. They had really steamy sex, which is always a plus. I loved that Allie made him do things out of his comfort zone, like actually eat at a restaurant for breakfast. And Adam made Allie feel again. A few others have said that how Erica was removed from the picture was a little to "easy" and I'd have to agree. Sure, she's gone, but it was very quick, and considering how badly she wanted Adam, she sure gave him up easily. Not that I minded. Bee-otch.
