Ethan Russell is a police officer shot while on duty and one of Rachel's physical therapy patients. When Rachel confides everything to him about the Cougar Challenge, Ethan is one pissed off guy. He is furious because his name isn't on Rachel's list. As far as he is concerned, he should be the only name on the list.

It's time to play a game called Assume the Positions where Ethan gives Rachel a brand new copy of the Kama Sutra then challenges her to make a new list.

Author Mari Carr has the ability to touch her readers' hearts with every story she writes. With this story, Ms. Carr has outdone herself once again, taking fans on an erotic journey that is sexually-charged, sensually delectable and tenderly delightful. Assume the Positions offers a wonderfully balanced plot with steamy scenes and a compelling story that grabs the reader right from the very first page. With this short, fast-paced format, Ms. Carr doesn't skip on details giving the reader a Technicolor picture that is well-developed and easy to visualize. A delightfully shy heroine and a bold hero provide just the right amount of sexual tension and heat. Endearing characters that are multi-dimensional and flawed along with a sizzling provocativeness blend beautifully with a sense of humor and the joy of falling in love for page turning thrills. These wonderful characters seem to have the ability to lift the story out of the ordinary and move it into the land of the sublime. The sex scenes are yummy and using the Kama Sutra is a fresh and fun addition that will have the reader enchanted. The passion and desire between Rachel and Ethan is sincere and heartfelt as well as the bond feeling warm and loving. Readers will have a hard time closing the book on this riveting story!

Gotta love those tempting and sinfully delightful Cougar ladies!
