Torrid Little Passion takes readers back to Lake State University where a certain group of friends party hard, study harder and fall in love the hardest. This installment treats readers to a wonderful friends to lovers romance. I was eager for the release of Torrid Little Passion; it being Brady’s story. The intriguing air mystery surrounding his character piqued my curiosity. He knew his friend’s secrets, but they had no clue of the pain he hid from them. He disappears from social events and everyone assumes the reasons for his disappearance involve a girl. However, in Torrid Little Passion, the truth behind his actions came to light. The reasons behind his disappearing acts led to his friend zoning Mya, his study partner and the girl with whom he was in love with. By the time he worked up the courage to let his feelings be known, she began dating someone else. Fortunately for him, that relationship ended, which provided the opening for him to make his move. Did I like this book? Yes! Was it my favourite in the series? No! Torrid Little Passion didn’t go as well as I hoped. It had some good points, but overall it was a normal read. As you probably guess by the title, this book was quite steamy. It was far steamier than the other books in the series. From the moment Brady and Mya crossed the lines of friendship into the world of lovers, they couldn’t get enough of each other. The change in their relationship came with lots of challenges ranging from Brady’s struggles with social anxiety, the baggage brought over from Mya’s previous relationship and failure to communicate. The support they offered each other after the revelation of secrets was a testament to their true feelings for each other. Mya’s lack of trust and uncalled for jealousy was a turnoff, which made it difficult to connect with her. Her previous relationship really did a number on her, and this fueled her insecurities. Brady was a sweetheart. A person who friends could trust to keep their secrets. I loved how he handled the drama resulting from Mya’s insecurities. His willingness to forgive and work on building their relationship impressed me. Now, despite all of this, it took a push from a well-meaning friend to get them on the road to resolving their issues. It was good to see them reaching that juncture of their relationship, but the path to get there felt rushed. I believe that aspect of the story needed further development, thereby adding authenticity to the attainment of the couple’s HEA and the culmination of the story.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
