Declan can’t resist the temptation of his much older boss, but a stolen kiss while trapped in an elevator becomes a ticking time bomb ready to blow up their careers and personal life.
Sean Ashford, a senior partner at a prestigious law firm, became a widower five years ago when his wife of twenty years passed away.

Little does he know that the young, eager, male attorney he hired will change his mind.
Declan Rivers’ dreams of creating a better life for himself and providing for his mom are finally within his grasp when he gets hired at one of the best criminal law firms in Boston. The only problem is he can’t stop lusting after his new boss. As someone who is used to random hook-ups, he soon learns it’s not only his job at stake but also his heart when he wants more with the one man he can’t have.
Long hours in the office, the occasional flirtatious banter, and a fainting spell leaves Sean questioning his sexuality, and Declan hopeful that his crush will turn into more.
When Sean’s children learn about his workplace romance, Declan is accused of being a gold digger, leaving him and Sean to decide if they want to keep their relationship strictly professional or continue to give into their forbidden desires.
Don’t miss out on this boss/employee romance filled with all the GFY, age gap, opposites attract goodness.

3.5 Stars

There were things about these stories that I really liked, but some things just didn’t work for me.  One of my pet peeves is, if I am reading a romance, I don’t want to see or hear about the main characters being with others. While there’s no cheating or on-page sex between Ford and Coop with other partners, both men are intimate and date/hook-up with others while they are apart. For me, with a romance, they should love each other so much that they don’t want to be with others. But that’s just me.

I really liked both Cooper and Ford, but I wanted to knock their heads together at times. They couldn’t seem to get on the same page at times and I think they were apart for too long. I’m not sure why this was a duet, I think everything could have taken place in just one book.

Both Ford and Cooper had amazing families. I didn’t read the first book in the series, Hayden and Tyler’s story, so I didn’t see first-hand what took place between Ford, Tyler, and Hayden, but frankly, I wanted to tell them both, especially Hayden, to take a long walk off a short pier. I understand Ford hurt them, but they just rubbed me the wrong way. (Sorry if I’ve upset any Hayden/Tyler fans)

The story was enjoyable, and for the most part, I enjoyed the authors’ writing. It’s filled with plenty of sexy times, and while they are spicy, they felt a bit rushed. There were also things that happen throughout the story that were a bit far-fetched. While this wasn’t my favorite duet ever, I still recommend it.

From
USA Today bestselling authors Kimberly Knight and Rachel Lyn Adams comes a MM
forced proximity friends to lovers standalone romance with on-the-road secret
hook-ups.

Sometimes, an unexpected night can change everything …

It’s said that college is where you try things and eventually find yourself. Chase Matthewson
hadn’t expected to experiment with his roommate and fellow teammate, Gage
Statler, but a drunken night at a party led them to the same bed. Before either
of them could wrap their heads around what happened, Gage suffered a
devastating injury and left college. 

With no closure, the two put that night behind them and never spoke of it or to each other again.
They both moved on, married women, and started families. Chase lived out his
dream of playing professional baseball while Gage found different ways to
fulfill his passion for the sport. 

Years later, both men find themselves divorced, focused on fatherhood, and not looking for
another long-term relationship. But what they don’t know is that the past is
about to bring them together.

 

Gage starts coaching
Chase’s son’s travel ball team, forcing the former roommates to come face to
face and finally acknowledge their secret hookup. When the team moms joke about
calling dibs on the hot coach, Chase wants to tell them he called dibs first.
