Bid For Love By Savannah Chase

Nico’s latest disaster only proves that when you gamble your heart on a man, you might as well get ready to lose. Then why does she find herself ready to take a chance on the sexy construction worker? When her chance for love comes up on the auction block, can she bring herself to make one last bid for happiness and just maybe true love?

This was a very uplifting story. The one man Nico wishes to go on a date with, Jeff (every woman’s dream of a hottie!) she wouldn’t dare ask. As it turns out, Jeff’s got a little crush of his own. It seems at every turn they come close to each other only to be pulled back. You’re cheering these two on to the very end. I didn’t leave my chair until I’d devoured every page. A very sexy, sensually charged read.

5 Delightful Divas.

Nico, Fran, and Audrey have been friends for a long time and have very different personalities. Nico is a bit repressed, with a secret side she would love to unleash on one sexy construction boss.

Jeff is the owner of the company working on the project close to the office where Nico works. He’s not usually the shy type, but she has him tongue-tied. Ryan is his lifelong friend who’s determined to get him laid.

What happens when their friends try to set their “best buds” up with someone? Irritation, frustration, and a major misunderstanding that culminates in a tangle of hurt feelings. Bid for Love is a story with erotic sex scenes, humor, and a “friends forever” theme.

Ever find yourself attracted to a particularly scrumptious man? Not that unusual in itself, but you don’t often act on your attraction. What if you did and things didn’t work out as in your well-rehearsed fantasy? Instead, you’d find yourself avoiding the same delightful man that before you took such pleasure in greeting every day. Sound familiar? Maybe you have a great deal in common with Nico, the heroine in Savannah Chase’s newest novel, Bid For Love.

Nico thinks of herself as a modern gal, perhaps a little on the boring side. Maybe that’s why her friends’ constant badgering about Jeff is starting to get on her nerves. Audrey even has the nerve to hint she’ll take the yummy Jeff if Nico never plans to make a move on him. Great—all she needs is man-hungry Audrey gobbling the source of her fantasies. If only she could be more adventurous and take a chance. Besides her hidden tattoo, the most excitement in her life at this point is agreeing to attend the Valentine’s Day Bachelor Auction. She is unsure why she is attending because none of those hot guys would want to go out with her.

Jeff isn’t sure how he ended up on the ten sexiest bachelors list, but he did. Along with the list came a phone call asking him to be part of the Valentine’s Day Bachelor Auction. Since it is for a good cause, it seemed like the thing to do. Strange, he is willing to parade in front of nameless women, but he could not ask out the sweet-faced woman who walked by his site every day. Usually, they just smile at each other, and a couple of times they talked. What would be great is if she was at the auction, even if it doesn’t mean she will bid on him.

Both Jeff’s and Nico’s doubts and insecurities make them real and vulnerable. Reading the tale is the equivalent to watching a courtship unfold. It is peppered with chuckles from the feisty secondary characters plus the skewed views Nico and Jeff have of themselves as date-worthy material. The story moves well without any filler.

Bid For Love is straight up hot romance, doesn’t pretend to be anything else and delivers in the end. It is a story well worth gobbling up. Its only drawback is that I wish there was more—much more.

Nico had passed Jeff on her way to work for weeks now. He was so hot, so attractive, that she didn’t have the courage to say anything but “hello”. Claims that he was bi-sexual made him more than she could handle, but her friends urged her on. If she didn’t go after him, one of them would!

Jeff Thompson thought Nico was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Every time he came within ten feet of her, though, he became both tongue-tied and aroused. He, of all people, should feel confident romancing a woman. He was twenty-seven-years-old, and already owned a construction company, Landspree Construction. Not only was he doing well financially, but he had plenty of work planned. All he needed now was a real woman—one who could love him as much as he loved her.

Savannah Chase pens a warm and beautiful story of two people who are both afraid to make the first move. Everyone else—friends and co-workers—can see their attraction for each other, but each holds back, reluctant to take a chance. Fran, one of Nico’s friends, finally decides to take the bull by the horns and force these two together by having Jeff agree to being a contestant at a Valentine’s Day charity auction. When Jeff steps on stage, though, the women go wild for him, so Nico is forced to up her bid if she is to stand a chance. Bid For Love is a sweet blending of sex, friendship, and love that readers will enjoy.
