Heather Cameron has been in lust with Jason Alexander forever. As a teen Jason was the fantastically hot lover of her dreams. When Heather left for college her fantasies about him became more carnal and fevered. Triggering a burning want inside of her that the years could not abate. When Jason left to join the army Heather felt a part of her world crumble. Try as she might she could not let the memories of her unrequited passions go. As Heather resorts to anger she goes on with her life and proceeds to build a successful career for herself. Now back in San Francisco suppressed thoughts of Jason arise to the surface and Heather’s world is once again in sexual turmoil.

It is at her brothers home and during one of his famous football parties that she is about to be reunited with Jason. The years may have passed but her feelings for Jason have only managed to intensify. Heather knows that to be with Jason could drive a possible wedge between him and her brother who is also his best friend. Matt has never know the attraction that Heather has had for his friend. To him they were the big brothers to a little girl who always followed them around. Tired of being thought of as a child Heather has made plans that include opening Jason's eyes once and for all. At 25 years old she is ready to embark on a mission of her own. Tempting the elusive Jason. Heather has a lot more in her arsenal than she did as a teen. Armed with a grown up body and her magnetic assets, Jason is about to be besieged.

Jason Alexander has always had a crush on his Matt's little sister. Unfortunately Matt is also his best friend. Never acting on his desires Jason instead treated Heather as if she were his little sister also. When the sexual pull became to strong between them he chose to leave and join the army. Hoping that their years apart would lessen the powerful attraction he felt for her. Jason could not have been more further from the truth. It was more than just lust for him. Jason loved Heather and all the time and distance between them would never change that. Having Matt as his friend has always been a constant in his life. Unfortunately having Heather has been one too. No other woman has compared to Heather and Jason knows that none ever will.

Coming home and seeing Heather again as an adult has driven Jason's feelings sky high. If anything, Heather the woman is even more beautiful than the little girl he remembered. Her body always held a potent charm that he found difficult to ignore. As he looks into her eyes he sees a woman that wants him. He is once again fiercely aroused in her presence and gives in to her demands of one simple kiss. Jason has realized his mistake a little too late. One kiss has only managed to set off an inferno within him that this time he can't ignore. Try as he might to withstand all of Heathers temptations Jason knows he has finally lost the battle. But it is a battle that he gladly concedes willingly.

As Heather and Jason give into the wild and sensual demands of their flesh the two embark on long awaited fantasies come true. Pent up desires from years that have gone by are released within a tidal wave of emotions that come crashing down upon the new lovers. Jason's touch sends Heather over the edge time and time again. As Jason succumbs to the heated caresses of the woman he has always loved the two forget all that has held them apart all of these years. That is until daylight comes and with it Heather's brother Matt. Can Heather and Jason reveal their newfound happiness? Or is friendship more important to Jason than a chance at love with the woman of his dreams come true? Lisa Renee Jones' characters have some tough choices to make but will desire or love be the right answer?

TEMPTING JASON is one sexy read that was written in a style that leaves you squirming on the edge of your seat. Extremely masculine and hot Jason left me breathless as he gives Heather that which her body has always craved. The sexual tension in the book is enough to set it all off in flames wonderfully. I read book three first and found that the series obviously need not be read in order. ALL THE RIGHT SPOTS and DARING SHEILA are books 1 and 2 respectfully in THE JUMP ZONE SERIES. I look forward to savoring them all. TEMPTING JASON was published by eXtasy Books and available as of 2004. Lisa Renee Jones has proven once again why she is a master at tempting the desires of her readers.

Yours in good reading,
