BLURB
Some men are just off-limits. Like your ex-boyfriend’s father.

But when I met the sexy, powerful older man shortly after my business school graduation, he was simply the seductive stranger I wanted to notice me, and he sure did.

Fast forward a few months later, when my college ex – now a good friend – introduces me to the person he looks up to most…his father.

The man I spent that one hot night with.

I should stay far away from the commanding business mogul. But my ex and I are planning a charity fundraiser that involves late nights at his dad’s penthouse in Manhattan.

Nights where he can’t stop looking at me with desire in his eyes that matches my own.

I try to resist him, playing the good girl in the city…mostly.

He’s the perfect gentleman…until he comes knocking on my door and tells me exactly what he wants to do to me.

And I say yes.

Stealing nights with him like this is supposed to be wrong, but it feels so right. And when he saves the day to protect his son at the fundraiser, my heart wants him as much as my body does.

Can we ever be more than just a tryst?


MY REVIEW

Layla's not at this conference to have fun. But when she sees an absolutely gorgeous older guy, she's suddenly thinking less about networking and more about handing over her v-card to him. This one night is to be one night only though, nothing can ever come of it because they live in different countries. But what happens when she does see him again? When her ex boyfriend who's still her friend, introduces her to his dad? His gorgeous dad that Layla knows intimately...

Nick never told Layla he had a son that he adored, one who was closer to her age than to his own. So imagine his surprise when he's introduced to his son's friend/ex, and she's the beautiful younger woman with whom he had a night he hasn't been able to forget. Now they're working in close proximity helping his son with his fundraiser, and Nick's finding it increasingly impossible to resist her. Now he has to decide if they tell David, or hope to God they can keep it all a secret.

Oh boy but I think I just found my new favorite couple of Lauren's! Layla is so impressive, young though she is, she's smart, strong, and seriously hardworking with a fabulous circle of support in her friends. She knows what (and who) she wants and doesn't play games. Nick is her perfect match, the man perfect for her and to her. He's delicious in and out of the bedroom, but he's also tender, patient, and supportive. I'm the first to say I normally don't like age gap stories, especially with the gap so large (15 years?) but it works so well here because she's mature for her age, and though Nick is older, he's not condescending or dismissive the way older men are often portrayed. Their chemistry is positively fire, and their emotional connection is equal to and becomes even greater than their physical one. I love this forbidden age gap love story - definitely one of Lauren's best.

Review Blitz: The Challenge by Penelope Ward

Title: The Challenge: A Single Dad Romance Author: Penelope Ward Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance Tropes: Single Dad, Second Chance, Forced Proximity Friends to Lovers, Small Town, Found Family Release Date: August 30, 2026 BLURB From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE contemporary romance… Nothing says welcome home like accidentally moving in with your first heartbreak…and his little girl. Coming back to my small Wyoming hometown was supposed to be temporary. I only planned to stay long enough to help my ailing mother and sort through the mess of my family’s old belongings. Instead, I somehow ended up living in Evan Ricci’s house. The single dad now owned a bunch of properties and one of them was the place I’d rented. He’d taken it off the market and moved in before I got there. I just never got the memo. Unfortunately, there was no other place in town available, so Evan let me stay. Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...

You TV series

Wow, hubby and I watched You on Lifetime last night. It was creepy and suspenseful. Hubby likened it to Dexter , and I have to agree. Penn Badgley was on point - creepy, stalkery, but fascinating. I didn't think too much of Elizabeth Lail's acting, but I'm not sure if it was just that her character was bland, or if it was truly bad acting. Can't wait for next week!
