EMILY: SEX & SENSIBILITY is a steamy romance novel by USA Today Bestelling Author Sandra Marton. Emily Wilde has led a privileged life. Now she’s trying to make it on her own in Manhattan. Marco Santini grew up dirt poor in a Sicilian slum. Now he has everything. He’s gorgeous. He’s rich. He’s powerful. And he has all the beautiful women a man could ask for.
Then, one rainy night, he sees a woman standing alone on a deserted New York street corner. Emily is clearly in need of help, but she’s not foolish enough to step into Marco’s chauffeured Mercedes. It takes a lot of convincing before she lets him take her to her apartment. He swears he’s not going to do anything he shouldn’t and he means it–but she’s in his arms before they can stop themselves.
Still, it’s only a kiss, just one kiss in a moment torn out of time. That’s what they both think. But Fate has other plans, starting with an unexpected job offer and a business trip to Paris that explodes in a passion so hot it will change everything–everything but the web of lies that traps them both.

REVIEW:
It’s hard to imagine so many things going wrong for a woman written to be intelligent. Emily was thrown about by the tide of the bar patrons where she played piano — and, by the way, what is so shameful about that??? It’s NYC, and Emily wasn’t selling her body, for goodness’ sake! When things went wrong with her employment, Emily seemed unable to stand up for herself. This is a young woman insistent on making it on her own, without her family’s help?? Then stand up for yourself!
She accepts a job with Marco, and goes on a business trip with him and charms everyone. They are intimate together very quickly. The relationship continues at home, while Emily has enough backbone to maintain the appearance of independence at work, going to work, leaving work. A mutual friend accidentally outs her real identity — suddenly Marco is so betrayed! That was a bit melodramatic. The make up was good, and so was the thawing of Marco’s heart initially. But in general, it wasn’t a really deep character development, and not entirely consistent either. But it was fine. It was chocolate to me; not nourishing, but I liked it while it lasted.
