Avery Flynn always writes provocative stories with characters that are independent, stubborn and tempting. Dodging Temptation did not disappoint. Watching Dodge and Harper duke it out was a wonderful way to pass the time. Dodge was controlling, focused, desirable and pompous. Harper was an alluring distraction with something to prove. From the moment they met you could feel the sizzle coming off the page. Not only are they trying to prove something to themselves but also to the nay-sayers and criticizers they face in everyday life. Received an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review. Dodging Temptation is a stimulating read that is full of emotion, sparks, wonderful storytelling and enjoyable characters. ( )

SYNOPSIS
 
You can't hide from love...or revenge.
 
Dodge Loving wants revenge...and he's about to get it. On the cusp of closing a multi-billion-dollar luxury resort deal, Dodge can't afford for anything go wrong. But then a fiery redhead shows up, the paparazzi hot on her trail, and throws his world into chaos. He has to get rid of her. Immediately. 
 
Harper Conner just wants to be left alone, but after slapping her cheating senator ex-husband during a televised press conference, she's a hot commodity. The ultra exclusive resort in Wyoming seems like the ideal place to hide--and work--so there's no way she's letting the Type-A jerk who runs the place fire her. 
 
Despite the animosity sparking between them, Dodge and Harper can't keep their hands to themselves. This thing between them can't happen. It won't. But his mother has other ideas...and she's willing to do whatever it takes to make sure Harper and Dodge fall in love.

Cute, but predictable, contemporary romance. I liked Harper and really felt that she had a good story. I wish there was more information given about her back story though. You know she slapped her husband for cheating, but I would have like to know more about her life and how she got to that point. You get some info about her family and how she was raised, but its really no more than a paragraph or 2. I thought the revenge angle was great. Dodge wants revenge and he sees spies everywhere. He doesn't trust anyone and you see how bitter it has made him. The end is a sweet, HEA that was pretty saccharine. I don't necessarily mind that, but it didn't really seem to fit with the characters. Nothing about them had been super sweet. I wish their relationship had been a bit sweeter; it really seemed to be all about sex. They had 1 date; the rest was just sex. So, to have a super sappy ending just felt odd for Dodge and Harper.
Avery Flynn obviously sets this up for more books, each focusing on a different brother (Stone and Griff). Overall, its a pretty good read and its fairly short so you can finish it quickly. I will probably pick up the next books in the series because I am curious to know more about the other brothers. ( )

This is a well written and thought out story. However, I didn't feel a connection to the characters or that there was enough depth or commonality between Dodge and Harper for a relationship. I really enjoyed the eccentric May Loving. She brought a touch of humor and light to the story. I also enjoyed the teasing between Griff and Stone. I will probably read their stories just to see more of May.
