Reader Question… Solved! The biker book where she takes care of his daughter after she’s been assaulted, and she and the Hero get into a fight…

August 27, 2023 By Maryse 9 Comments

Kim needs our book help! I’ve definitely read this one!!! I remember that scene, I also remember the living room, and the house where this argument happened AND the porch).

This makes me think it might be Sweet Dreams, no (though he wasn’t the Prez of an MC), but he WAS a biker.

Hrmmm… It’s been so long since I’ve read that book (2011? 2012? But, I feel like yes, and I LOVED that book). And if not, it definitely feels like a Kristen Ashley book (the heroine especially). Or was it Motorcycle Man? Either way, I know I’ve read it. read more

Reader Recommendations – Our Favorite Older Man-Younger Woman Age Gap Romance featuring BOTH main characters as older…

December 29, 2020 By Maryse 7 Comments

Age gap romance books are a pretty big thing in our crew (and can get pretty risqué and forbiddeny), but this specific request is extra special. Not necessarily forbidden, but still somewhat unconventional, and intriguing (especially because of certain issues that come about because of this).

And Megan wants recommendations like this:

She asks:

I’m trying to find and older man/younger woman age gap story, but I’m looking for older characters, the woman in her 30s or 40s and the man in his 60s or 70s. read more

Reader Question – The book about the wife that finds divorce papers left accidentally by her husband on the kitchen table…

November 23, 2020 By Maryse 3 Comments

Niki is looking for this one! OMG FURY ALERT!!!!! I know I don’t know this one, ’cause OMG I think that scene would be burned into my brain (and heart), but maybe someone here knows?

She asks:

Trying to find a book.

First of all, I love your blog! We have such similar book tastes, and it was my obsession with Kristen Ashley that first led me to you. I check your recommendations every week.

That being said, I am going crazy trying to remember a book I read where a wife discovers a file with divorce papers in it left accidentally by her husband on the kitchen table (maybe). read more

Reader Question… Solved! The book about the middle aged married couple and he left her, and then wanted to come back…

April 16, 2020 By Maryse 15 Comments

Outi needs our book help! I love books about married couples and marital strife and then… maybe a second chance romance?? Though I’m not sure if this is what happens here… 😉

She asks:

Hello,

Greetings from Finland, Europe 🙂

I have been trying to find one book – middle aged couple, two college aged sons. Husband left wife, wife was dating first her attorney, next her son’s future father-in-law.  He was minister or something like that.

And then husband wanted to come back….. read more
