Fiery bartender Julia Bell has been hit on by her fair share of customers and has never so much as batted an eye in response. After all, she wants a man who can claim her body AND captivate her mind. Enter Clay Nichols, the entertainment lawyer with a dirty mind and a mouth to match. Their connection is off the charts hot, but can it last beyond the first night?

What happens after the happy ending? Bestselling author Lauren Blakely gives readers a glimpse of the happily ever afters for her popular romantic couples – Kat and Bryan from Caught Up In Us, Chris and McKenna from Trophy Husband, Jill and Davis from Playing With Her Heart, and Jane and Matthew from Far Too Tempting.
4.5 Short, sweet, and sexy stars!
Julia is just looking for a man with a brain who can satisfy her needs. Clay is looking for a fiery woman that can handle him.
Clay heads to San Francisco on business and stops in to meet Julia at the bar she works at(at the urging of her sister, McKenna). The meet, they talk, they lust, and sparks fly!
They both like to dominate and control, but know when it is best to submit. Their chemistry is off the charts! I loved that they both knew what they wanted and just went for it. Clay is a bossy, hot alpha male who just radiates sex. I loved him from the start! He is a dirty talker and Julia has no trouble jumping right in with him. She is sassy, outspoken, and a real spitfire.
These two are perfectly matched, but there is one huge obstacle in their way to even attempting to have more than just one night. This was just such a tease for this fun, vibrant, and intense couple. I was not ready for it to be over. It had me messaging Lauren when I was done, saying I wanted more of them!
And the EVER AFTERS are heartwarming little extras from some of our favorite couples from Caught Up in Us, Trophy Wife, Playing With Her Heart and Far Too Tempting. They were so so sweet, romantic, and fun. I loved getting to witness more of their happy, significant moments with them.
So this is a short novella, but gives us five tantalizing and engaging reads in one. As with all of Lauren's books, there is humor, steam, romance, and great connections. I cannot get enough of her characters and books.
Lauren Blakely writes sexy contemporary romance novels with heat, heart, and humor, and her books have appeared on the New York Times, USA Today, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and iBooks bestseller lists. Like the heroine in FAR TOO TEMPTING, she thinks life should be filled with family, laughter, and the kind of love that love songs promise. Lauren lives in California with her husband, children, and dogs. She loves hearing from readers! Her novels include Caught Up In Us, Pretending He's Mine, Playing With Her Heart, Trophy Husband, and Far Too Tempting. On November 21, she'll release the edgy new adult novel THE THRILL OF IT. She also writes for young adults under the name Daisy Whitney.
