Kade Wright is an expert in rocking any woman's world.

Sexy, rich, and the type you don’t bring home to meet your mother, he has broken more hearts than he can remember, and there is no end in sight. Until one mistake lands him in boiling hot waters. When his company orders him to the LOVE ADDICTS ANONYMOUS Rehab Center, he better get his affairs in order or else he loses his seat on the company board.

Love isn’t supposed to be addictive. But for Vicky Sullivan it is.

A true romantic at heart, she comes with a bit of a stalking tendency, and is completely not adverse to commitment. But who’s Kade to judge? As someone who’s seeking commitment and afraid of never finding love, she’s the type of woman he wouldn’t usually hit on. Except, she’s hot and keeps avoiding him…yes, even after seeing his private parts naked in all their glory.

Kade isn’t known as the tall, dark and ruthless businessman for no reason. Romance isn’t in the air, more like wild between the sheets action with no expectations. Vicky’s convinced she can resist, but Kade has other plans for her.

Can Vicky stay away from the one man who seems so easy to get and so hard to keep?


Not a standalone! This is Part One in the Love Addicts Anonymous series! Ends in a cliffhanger! Part 2 will be released Nov 21st.




“Changed your mind after all?” The voice is deep and husky. For a moment, I’m immobilized as he continues, “I think bedrooms are a bit overrated, but what the hell? If that’s your thing, I’m up for it.”
It’s the same guy.
I turn to face him, my gaze strangely drawn south, and find that a thin towel is wrapped around his hips, covering his junk.
I let out an exasperated snort.
It’s really tiny. The towel, that is.
Not his tool.
That one’s about the biggest I’ve ever seen, counting TV and Internet pop-ups.
I don’t want to gawk, and yet I find my gaze glued to the clearly defined bulge beneath that towel.
In the bright light spilling in through the large bay windows, I can see everything. There’s no denying he still has a raging erection, as though pleasuring himself wasn’t nearly enough to still his sexual appetite.
“Seriously?” I ask, pointing to the towel. “Can’t you put something on?” My voice sounds strangled, breathy, which I attribute to the fact that I’m highly uncomfortable standing in front of a hot guy built like a Greek god and hung like a donkey.
“What’s so important that you had to interrupt?”
“I interrupted?” My jaw drops, and white hot flashes of anger begin to cloud my vision. “Oh, you’re talking about your date with your right hand. Sorry about that.” I smirk. “What are you doing here?”
His brows shoot up. “Here?”
“Yes, here in my apartment.”
Ignoring my question, he squeezes past me, his erection coming dangerously close to my abdomen. From up close, he smells of sandalwood and raw manliness.
My breath catches in my throat.
It takes all my willpower not to jump a few steps back to put some distance between us.
He retrieves another white towel from his suitcase and wipes his face with it.
Every fiber of my body is heating up at the sight of his naked back. Bruce is tall and a bit skinny. This guy is built like a boxer: tall with broad shoulders and hard muscles in places I didn’t know existed.
As he turns to regard me, I notice the color of his eyes.
Deep brown and broody with long, dark lashes.
They’re the sort of eyes that make you feel like you’re the only woman in his world.


Vicky Sullivan believes in true love with all her heart and she is sure she has found it. But her love interest may or may not have other ideas. It is hard to tell since we see their relationship through her point of view. She is spirited, caring, devoted, and perhaps a bit prone to obsession that might be a little stalkerish. And she is delightfully clueless that she may have a tendency to take things a bit too far in the name of love. But all she can see is her future with her perfect man, kids, the white picket fence, and happily-ever-after...if all the negative influences would just get out of their way.

Kade Wright is charismatic, arrogant, funny, and loves sex...lots of it. But he does not do repeats, relationships, and especially not clingers. But his shenanigans are getting some negative attention that is affecting his business...a business that is run with the help of a board that is not too happy losing money due to his personal life. He thinks they are over reacting since he clearly does not have a problem, but his company and money are important to him.

Both don't make a choice to go to LAA (Love Addicts Anonymous). They have their own circumstances and opposite reasons. They don't even think they belong there and are not very open to the therapy. And who would have thought bringing love addicts and a sex addicts together would be a good idea?

Vicky and Kade clash, create friction, and rile each other up. She is normally a sweet optimist, but Kade tends to bring out her more prickly and hostile side. Kade is alpha, cocky, sarcastic, magnetic, and determined to get what he wants.  He's all about no-strings-sex and she's all about everlasting love. They should be each other's worst nightmare.

Any kind of fraternization is against the rules. They've both got issues to fix with themselves...if they ever admit they really do have problems. Rules and boundaries are set for a reason. But are they made to be broken?

This is unique, humorous, and full of sexual tension. It is fun to get some cameos from characters from other series as side characters in this one. It is told in Vicky and Kade's points of views. This story begins the journey for these two and lets us see into their worlds and the issues that have sent them to LAA. Their story will continue in two other novellas that we won't have to wait long for since they will be released close together. 

I was gifted an arc in exchange for an honest review.
