The Kiss Quotient is a book that I might have been really excited about if it was a little more tame. A woman who shows her figure through a form fitting dress is sexier than one who shows more skin than the average bathing suit. This book is more explicit and crude than it needs to be. I like both Stella and Michael, but I think the story could have been told in a manner that would endear me to the characters. Finally, I liked the mathematical symbols that adorn the cover, but did not like the depiction of the characters in a graphic art type format.
