He’s always wanted her. Now’s his chance to claim what’s his.
School teacher Marceline Bellini gave up everything—men, sex, anything resembling a social life—to raise her young daughter. To be the perfect parent. But when she attends an engagement party in her standard stick-in-the-mud mode, her friends begin plying Marceline with shots. Just enough to convince her that a little fun doesn’t sound like a bad idea… and having some naughty fun is an even better one.
Like finding herself deliciously pressed against a dark alley wall by the very familiar and über-hot bod of her best friend’s older brother.
After years of waiting in painful silence, cop Aaron Robinson finally has Marceline’s attention. And man, does he have it. But nothing could have prepared either of them for the rush of fiery lust between them. So he’ll just have to convince Marceline he’s for real. And that a rainy, lust-fuelled romp is the first step to a lifetime of completely imperfect happiness…
I loved this novella! It had two fantastic characters who I immediately wanted to root for and some smoking hot sex scenes that made me want to find my an Aaron of my own.
Aaron Robinson is a no-nonsense cop who has wanted his sister’s best friend, single mom Marceline Bellini, since she was seventeen years old and tried to seduce him. The timing never seemed quite right, though, what with her being so young and later marrying the a guy Aaron never thought deserved her, but now that it appears she’s ready for more, Aaron is bound and determined to make her his.
While the sex is spicy hot between Aaron and Marcy, Aaron wants more than that. He wants something real. Yet, thanks to Marcy’s failed marriage, and her fear of screwing up her daughter’s stable life, it takes some doing for Aaron to convince the woman to give them a true chance. Aaron refuses to walk away without a fight, though, something Marcy soon comes to appreciate about him.
This was a great love story. Hot, with a really solid romance. It’s was the perfect bridge between the first book, In Bed With Mr. Wrong, and the next book, Falling For His Best Friend (out May 19th).

He’s going above and beyond the call of duty…
Avery Yeung’s biological clock just went off early. Thanks to her family’s medical history, she’s running out of time to get knocked up. And the only guy within donating distance? Her overprotective-and irritatingly hot-best friend. So clearlyshe needs an anonymous donor…
Anonymous donor? Over Sheriff Drew Flannery’s dead body. While daddyhood will never be in the cards for a man with his past, Drew won’t let Avery shop for a “popsicle pop.” He’ll do what’s right for his best friend by doing his best friend. But only if they do it properly.
But there’s nothing “proper” about it. Between the bed, the kitchen counter, and against his squad car, Avery and Drew are having the hottest sex ever. They can’t get enough of it-or each other. And without knowing it, they’ve crossed the one line that could ruin their friendship forever…
