I swear I’m a good girl.

I didn’t go to the exclusive, after-hours masquerade to kiss my dad’s best friend. I didn’t even know who the masked man was when he touched me like I was his every fantasy.

But when I learn exactly how off-limits my new lover is, I do my best to avoid him the next time. Except, he has his sinful sights set on me, even when he discovers who I am. Just one time, he whispers. Then we’ll pretend this never happened.

Seems the enigmatic, gorgeous single dad I’ve known by day is a very dirty man after dark.

But one night turns into a stolen weekend, giving me a taste of so much more. When it ends, we vow to stay apart.

We could never work.

He’s focused on raising his young son, and I can’t let my already damaged family break more. But the caring, possessive man keeps coming back to me, and these secret nights tangled up together are turning into tender moments that make my heart thunder.

And soon, this tease of a forbidden romance is making me want so much more than I can ever have…


MY REVIEW


Jules let herself have one night to explore her desires and now she wants more. But when she finds the real identity of her masked man, she knows she can't do this, not when it would upset her (and Finn's) whole world. But their attraction to each other isn't to be denied and now their tryst is more, feelings are happening even though there's an inevitable end to them.


Finn's life has changed drastically. He's divorced now and has transitioned into a single new father. He hasn't really let himself have fun since, but tonight that's going to change. One look at the beauty at the piano and he's hooked. Too bad she turns out to be forbidden in every way - too young, too inexperienced, and has ties with someone who's really important to him. He can't let himself have her, can he?


There are layers to this story. It's not just hot and steamy, the emotional connection Jules and Finn share, though heightened by the forbidden, is strong from the beginning and only gains strength the longer they're together. Jules in particular is a carrying baggage, baggage she slowly works at unloading, with Finn's help. And Finn - holy hell he's swoony! Sweet and dominant by turns, down and delicious always. This couple is fabulous, especially when they finally allow themselves to fall.

Review: One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti

Review of One Little Lie by Whitney Barbetti ONE LITTLE LIE Hollis is a good girl with a crush on a broody musician. Unfortunately, that boy, Adam, hates her. Why? Because the chip on his shoulder leaves him thinking good girl, rich girl Hollis is a lemming like everyone else in their small town. Which makes it even more unfortunate when years after their high school encounter, Hollis' best friend tries to stick up for her and ends up telling her parents that Adam is the the boyfriend Hollis doesn't actually have. Oops. How will Hollis ever convince Adam to go along with her little lie? I really liked One Little Lie. Hollis is a really naive girl, but she has such a huge heart that I couldn't help but fall in love with her spirit. She's so sweet, so compassionate, the kind of person this world needs more of. Adam, on the other hand, eh, he didn't do much for me. His chip on the shoulder, broody asshole attitude did nothing to endear me to him, but because H...

Evan—the guy my parents took in years a...
