Book Review: MIDNIGHT TREAT by Becca Simone


I downloaded Midnight Treat by Becca Simone a few days after it was released but didn't have the opportunity to read it until last night. I am so glad I did.


This book isn’t hot, it’s steaming… Seriously. Well-written, with splashes of humor, excellent characterization and a plot executed so well, I couldn’t put it down. I didn’t mention the HEA. Consider yourself warned. You will swoon.

Becca, you have a new fan. : ) There is a reason why it's #1 on the Wilder Rose Site.


Midnight Treat is a treat any time of the day! Highly, highly recommended.


Here is an excerpt:
Zorro hooked his hands under the frame and tugged upward. She gasped. He was coming inside! He swung his leg quietly over the windowsill, his foot touching carpet.
“You told me you were on the fifth floor,” he said as he swung his other leg inside and unfolded to his full height. His voice was deep and raspy. His white teeth flashed in the dim light as he grinned.
Oh. My. God. Zorro was in her apartment.
“I, ah—” He must have seen her through the window and thought she was the other Marie. Again. Her insides fluttered with possibilities.
Tell him! He stalked toward the bed like a wild animal hunting its prey. He eased the sword from its sheath and leaned over her, holding it above her face. She, Cassie Snow, was smack dab in the middle of another couple’s naughty fantasy. Her eyes widened and need pulsed between her legs. Tell him he’s in the wrong apartment!
“You said you like to be scared,” he growled, right before he clamped a hand over her mouth and pressed the back of her head into the pillow.
He held the long silver blade in front of her eyes. “Make a sound and you’re dead. Understand?”
She nodded and immediately stilled. She knew she should tell him he had the wrong girl. But she was always the wrong girl. Was it so horrible that she wanted to be the right girl for a change? Was it so wrong that she wished, just for one night, to be someone else? Someone who acted out naughty role-playing?

Great review, Lynne! Midnight Treat's waiting on my Sony with First Date. ;)

I have more books on my hard drive than I have time to read! I'll get there!

I know the feeling, Catherine. That's why I asked for a Sony for my birthday. I can DL and take them with me.

Lynne, I KNEW I liked you. Thank you so much for the nice review. It means a lot coming from a fellow writer. I don't know that I've ever been around a more supportive bunch of writers--even though we're all technically competing with each other, we all truly root for each other. At least it feels that way to me. :)

About ereaders...did you see that Barnes & Noble has a new reader? Full color... Will read any format...

Thanks, Becca.

I agree with you, romance writers are a supportive, encouraging bunch of people. And you are a very talented writer. I love your work.

I've heard of the new reader but haven't seen it yet. I'll have to check it out.
