She likes to watch. He likes to keep hidden. Total opposites on a collision course to a relationship neither can deny.
Simone Cooperβs been watching Elliott Anderson through her office window for months. He likes to bring women back to his office for late-night trysts, and Simone enjoys her voyeurism until one night, Elliott appears to go too far with his date. The other woman might not be into spanking, but Simone is, and when she meets Elliott in the elevator later that night, she makes sure heβs intrigued enough by her to ask her to go with him to the party he no longer has a date for.
Thrown together by circumstances heβd never have imagined, Elliott isnβt sure what to think about Simone. Sheβs nothing like the women he normally dates, but something about her draws him in until he canβt stop himself from wanting herβ¦until their goodnight kiss becomes something harder. Harsher. Simone responds to his rough hands as no woman ever has, and Elliottβs not ready to pursue what heβs always told himself is wrong..

Reviewer’s Thoughts
EVERY PART OF YOU is a serial novel made up of five books.Β Itβs a dark, erotic, well written story about Elliot Anderson, a partner in a law firm and Simone Kahan, who works in the same building as Elliot.Β While Simone is working late one night, she looks out her window and notices Elliotβs activities in his office after hours.Β After that, whenever Simone works late, she watches Elliot hook up with different women in his office late at night.Β One night when Elliot and Simone are both working late, they accidentally meet in the elevator.Β Elliot he is arrogant, selfish and terse, but Simone canβt help being attracted to him. Β Simone is confident in who and what she is. Β She isnβt intimidated by other people, knows what she wants and always speaks her mind. Β Simone knows she is flawed, but is able to accept herself for who she is.Β Elliot is also flawed, but has a hard time acknowledging who he is.Β At forty two Elliot is inhibited, introverted and not honest with himself or other people.Β Elliot and Simone are two lost souls who are drawn to each other.
This is a well crafted story with great character development.Β As the story unfolds we understand Elliot and the circumstances that made him the man he is today.Β Although, there isnβt much information about Simoneβs past.Β Each book is about sixty pages and continues where the last book left off. Β I donβt understand why Megan Hart wrote this as serial and I have to admit, it spoiled the story for me. Β For that reason, I gave the book a lower rating. Β That being said, I think Megan Hart writes an intense, edgy, sexy read.Β There is some BDSM in the story.
