Private Dancer by Lelani Black

Private Dancer is a sensual novella by Lelani Black. I enjoyed being a part of Jacinta and Harrison’s life. They were an evenly matched pair that truly belonged together. Private Dancer is an easy quick enjoyable read.

Jacinta Carr--small business owner by day, erotic entertainer by night--sets the Honolulu club scene on fire every time she takes the stage as Sin, the sensual dancer who could tempt the most cynical soul. Desperate to keep her bikini boutique from going belly-up, and struggling to pay for her grandmother's care, Jacey's stripping could cost her more than her business, because when fiancée Harrison Allandt finds out, he'll name his own price!

Jacinta learned at an early age that she was the one that had to make things happen in her life. Rejected by her parents and sent to live with her loving grandmother was only the tip of the iceberg. When she met the man of her dreams she hesitated to be with him. Could she trust him with her past, her secrets, and herself? Or would she forever be marred by her ugly past. As their relationship progressed she fell more and more in love with him…there was only one problem she was hiding a secret from him and it could be a deal breaker. She loved him but she wants to push him away before he can hurt her like everyone else aside from her grandmother has. He is too nice to her he wants to do things for her that she is used to doing herself. She is desperate but not so desperate to take what he is offering. She knows that she must break off their engagement before he finds out how desperate she really is.

Harrison is head over heals for Jacinta and has been from the moment he laid eyes on her. He wants to live everyday proving his love to her. That is why he proposed to her. He was overjoyed when she accepted his proposal. The only problem is she is a bit reserved and it seems there is some things she isn’t telling him. Why is she so reserved and so secretive? When her grandmother dies he finds out that she has more debt than she can handle and offers to pay the remaining bill at the care facility. That only sends her running as far from him as she can. When she leaves he is devastated. When goes to the local strippers club he is surprised to see his shy reserved love dancing. He missed her and he needed to talk to her so he asks for a private dance. He will do anything to convince her of his love for her. Will he succeed? Or will his plan backfire? Will she even agree to a private dance? Will she listen to what he has to say?

I enjoyed the plot of Private Dancer. I also enjoyed the characters. Jacinta is a very strong character that is easy to identify with. Her struggles and feelings were so intense you could feel them. I was glad that she found a man as strong as Harrison because he was exactly what she needed. Harrison was every girl’s dream man. He was strong and understanding. He was perfect for Jacinta and that was obvious throughout Private Dancer. I would recommend Private Dancer to anyone who enjoys sensual romances.
