Sai chi è più sexy di un cattivo ragazzo? Un uomo adulto che ha imparato a stare al mondo.

Newton Compton Editori (21 giugno 2019), acquistabile qui.

Max Alexander ha quasi trentacinque anni. Ha messo in piedi da solo una compagnia di successo e si è affermato nel mondo imprenditoriale, ma non è mai stato fortunato in amore.

Le sue priorità sono sempre state il lavoro e sua figlia, e così si è ritrovato a trascurare la vita sentimentale.

È introverso, poco paziente e irruento. E l’ultima cosa di cui ha bisogno è lasciarsi coinvolgere dalla bellezza mozzafiato della ragazza che ha appena assunto per badare a sua figlia.

Addison è la distrazione che non può assolutamente permettersi. Ma vivere sotto lo stesso tetto senza cominciare a provare dei sentimenti potrebbe rivelarsi ogni giorno più difficile…

Kendall Ryan è autrice di romanzi bestseller. I suoi libri hanno dominato le classifiche di «New York Times», «usa Today» e «Wall Street Journal» e hanno venduto più di due milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. Dopo il grande successo della serie Filthy Beautiful Lies (Maledette bellissime bugie, Maledetto bellissimo amore, Maledetta bellissima passione, Maledetto bellissimo bastardo), torna a pubblicare con la serie Roommates, di cui fanno parte Il fratello della mia migliore amica, L’amico di mio fratello e Amore sotto lo stesso tetto.

My love wand is on a strike.

As bad as that blows, pun unintended, it’s ten times worse for me. I’m a male escort, but not just any escort, I’m the escort. The one with a mile-long waiting list and a pristine reputation that’s very well-deserved.

Only now, I’m on hiatus. Because after years of pleasing women all over the city, my man missile decides to get finicky. And the only woman he wants? Someone I can never have—my best friend’s younger sister, the nerdy and awkwardly adorable Sienna.

She’s working at the agency this summer, keeping me organized, handling paperwork, and most importantly, keeping me on track to finish writing my book about sex and intimacy, which is due to my publisher in thirty days.

She thinks I hate her, that I don’t want her here. The truth is much more twisted. I get hard every time she walks into my office. Her wide blue eyes and pouty mouth drive me wild with desire, and if she stays, I’m not sure how much longer I can stay away from her.

Little Miss Overachiever says she’s here to help? Fine. I’m going to put her nerdy, curvy tush to work.

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kendall Ryan comes a new story in her Whiskey Kisses series…

Everything’s bigger in Texas.

And that includes Duke Wilder’s sexual appetite.

Together with his twin brother, he runs a whiskey distillery, and when their business takes off—suddenly he’s got it all. Success. Money. Family. But he doesn’t have a woman to share it with.

When Valentina storms into his life, her presence is only supposed to be temporary. She’s a feisty attorney hired to help clean up his company’s recent legal mess. He never counted on her being the one to turn his whole world upside down.

After spending most of his life living in the shadow of his brother, Duke has something to prove, and he’s not about to let this distraction get in the way of his plans, no matter how hot things get.

**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

“Good morning, darlin’. Could I interest you in some breakfast sausage?”

The woman turned, her long, dark curls swinging around her shoulders. A look of disgust quickly washed over her face as her eyes locked on my bulge.

“Ay dios mio, you’ve got to be f#cking kidding me,” she muttered, immediately taking her briefcase from the counter and marching to the front door, her red-bottomed heels clacking loudly on the hardwood.

“What’s the matter?” I asked, stumbling after her.

“Last time I do a favor for a friend,” she said under her breath, slamming the front door shut behind her.

Favor. Friend. Beautiful woman in a pencil skirt. Charlotte’s hotshot lawyer friend from Los Angeles.

Oh f#ck.

“Hey, uh, Valencia, wait up!”

I burst through the door to find her paused on the top step of the porch. She turned sharply to look me dead on, the fire in her eyes enough to burn me straight through.

“It’s Valentina,” she spat, crossing her arms and cocking her hip to the side.

“Valentina, right. My mistake. Listen, I’m really sorry about all this. We were out late last night for—”

“For the opening, I know. I was supposed to be there, but something came up at work. So instead, I got my ass onto a last-minute redeye to make it in time for our meeting this morning, but clearly you had other things in mind,” she said, her eyes flitting to my quickly-softening cock before turning again to leave.

“No, please, don’t go. This is completely unprofessional, I know—”

“That’s the understatement of the century.”

“But I promise, if you give me a chance, we can turn this meeting around.”

“Is it still a meeting when one person shows up with his dick out?”

“Oh, trust me, sweetheart, if my dick was out, you’d know it.”

“Sure, as long as I brought a magnifying glass with me.”

I paused, standing up a little straighter. She squared her shoulders, and our eyes locked, the tension between us thick enough to cut with a knife.

If we were going to make this work, I knew I had to be the one to budge. But dammit if this woman didn’t make me want to blow my lid.

“Look, I’m sorry. Please stay. If not for me, then for Luke and Charlotte.”

Valentina sighed and put a hand on her hip.

“Fine. Put some goddamn pants on first, and then we’ll talk.”

She’s much too innocent for me, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting the sweet, young librarian. I’m dominating and possessive, and my control streak runs a mile wide.

The way she looks at me—like I’m one of the heroes in the books she loves, like I’m broken, and she wants to be the one to piece me back together—it only complicates things further. I’m nobody’s hero.

But there’s no denying my tragic past reads like one of her favorite literary classics. It’s raw. Visceral. Captivating. And together, we’re a perfect mess.

How can I resist when the sexual sparks zapping between us set me on fire? The need to control, and claim her force my walls to come tumbling down, but when she learns about my dirty little secret, will my world come crashing down with it?

RELEASE DAY: JAN 7th, 2019

Spotting a hooker on a city street corner is not an abnormal thing.

Me bringing one home? Well, that’s a first. But this girl . . . She’s in trouble. And this asshole is not a guy she wants to go home with. So I do the exact thing I shouldn’t—I offer to bring her home with me instead. She says this is the first time she’s ever done this, which is adorably ironic. Then proceeds to tell me a sob story about needing money to care for the baby who was left on her doorstep. That’s when my stomach starts to clench. I think she might be telling the truth. So I do what any respectable man would do—I take her home, stopping to pick up diapers and formula on the way—and discover that she was telling the truth all along. Christ on a cracker. I should have just kept walking. I should have done a thousand other things except for barge into her sad life, offer to fix everything, fall for her . . .

I’m flirting with my forever…she just doesn’t know it yet.

This book is a sexy, slow-burning best-friends-to-lovers romance with a guaranteed HEA and no cheating. Dive in, and get ready to melt for Cam!

I look up at Cam and meet his eyes, brimming with secrets. I need answers, and I need them now.

No more secrets, Cam.

“What’s going on?”

The man in my arms doesn’t answer with his words. Instead, he takes hold of the edge of my towel and pulls it from my body. I gasp at the sensation of our skin pressing intimately together. I brace myself against his chiseled arms, digging my fingers into his biceps for purchase.

He isn’t done. He lifts his hands, one to my hip, one to my cheek. His thumb draws a small circle on my exposed hip bone. With the side of his knuckle, he traces the outline of my lower lip. I stay very, very still so he won’t notice the slight shudder racing down my spine.

“I can’t tell you,” he says so softly that it breaks my heart.

“Yes, you can.” I barely recognize my own voice. Cam’s eyes, dark and hurting, are locked on my lips. I want to ease that pain.

And I think I know how.

I lean in closer, pulling myself up to his level with my hands on his chest. Our breaths mingle and everything is warm, the air between us aflame.

“You’re killing me.” These are the words that fall from Cam’s lips before they meet mine.

God.

My lips are locked against his in the softest of kisses. I catch his lower lip with my own, pressing every ounce of my feelings into him. Every thank you for being there for me. Every you’re perfect for being exactly what I need.

Can he feel how much I care for him?

He’s still for a whole Mississippi second—a second too long for me to bear.

Oh God. What have I done?

But the moment I pull away, Cam leans in. His hands are on my face, holding my lips against his. He tilts my head, digs his fingers into my hair, and opens his mouth to mine.

“Natalie . . .”

The sound of my name slipping so lustfully from the back of his throat sends a jolt all the way down. All the way down.

I pull myself even higher on my toes, clinging to him with my arms around his neck. He returns the favor, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me tight against him. Our mouths are magnetic, unable to separate, unwilling to stop.

My God. I’m kissing Cam.

I’m kissing my best friend.

I’m kissing him and I can’t stop.

I dart my tongue between his lips, caressing the underside of his upper lip. He growls, maddened by my bold move. His fingers blaze fiery trails down my neck and shoulders. His hands explore me, memorizing the slope of my back and the curve of my hips. Each touch is so soft, yet so electric.

Soon it’s all frantic kisses and eager moans that I’m pretty sure are coming from me. I press into his shoulders, leaving handprints on his chest. My fingers draw lines down his abdomen, then finally trace along the bulge beneath his towel.

Cam jerks back, his eyes full of questions.

But there’s no more time for questions. We’ve wasted far too much of it.

I broke her heart ten years ago and left town.

She hates me, and rightly so. It doesn’t matter that the rest of the country loves me, that I’m a starting quarterback with a multimillion-dollar contract. Because when I look in the mirror, all I see is a failure who was too young—and too afraid—to fight for what I wanted.

But I’m not that guy anymore, and all I need is one shot to convince her.

*** He has no idea what happened after he left. And now I’m supposed to work alongside him like we don’t have this huge, messy history?

But I’m older now, wiser, and I won’t let anything stand in my way of doing a good job for this league. Not even one overpaid, arrogant player who thinks we’re going to kiss and make up.

News flash, buddy: I am over you.

L’ultima volta che ho visto il fratello minore della mia migliore amica, era il ritratto dello sfigato perfetto, con tanto di bretelle. Ma quando Cannon si è presentato all’improvviso come il mio nuovo coinquilino, l’impatto con la realtà è stato incredibile. Ha 24 anni, un fisico mozzafiato ed è terribilmente sexy. Mi viene voglia di saltargli addosso come quando giocavamo da piccoli. Con quel sorrisetto ammiccante con cui mi fissa, poi, è una tentazione irresistibile… Peccato che sia appena uscito da una storia, e non abbia alcuna intenzione di impegnarsi. Resistere è dura, ma riesco a trattenermi fino alla terza notte della nostra convivenza, quando finiamo ubriachi nel nostro appartamento e Cannon mi confida il suo segreto. Ogni volta che passa la notte con una donna, lei si innamora di lui. Che scemenza. Voglio dimostrargli che si sbaglia: non mi innamorerò di Cannon e intendo vincere la scommessa… Perché perdere significherebbe avere commesso il più grande errore della mia vita.

Stavolta la recensione sarà concisa e sintetica. Inutile stare a descrivervi la trama, che è ben spiegata e lascia poco all’immaginazione. Quanto al prosieguo della storia non vi costerà grande fantasia immaginarvelo anche prima di aver letto il romanzo. Insomma, premesse divertenti anche se poco originali, sviluppo carino ma abbastanza scontato. Una lettura piacevole che passa senza lasciare strascichi, ideale per una giornata rilassante sotto l’ombrellone e nulla più.

Il romanzo mantiene le promesse di leggerezza e divertimento nella prima parte, diventa un pochino più intenso nella seconda a causa dell’inserimento di alcuni eventi meno felici, e volge infine al classico happy end, in cui ogni remora fino a quel momento provata dai nostri due coinquilini viene superata grazie alla forza e al coraggio dell’amore.

Complessivamente un libro che si legge con estrema facilità, scritto bene, in uno stile giovanile e con un linguaggio confacente ai personaggi. Qualche purista troverà il pov di Cannon sconcio e volgare in alcuni pensieri e talune battute, ma per me non è un difetto, anzi è segno che l’autrice sia riuscita ad entrare nella testa di un ragazzo di 24 anni. Chi pensa che dalla bocca e dalla mente di un ragazzone di quell’età possano uscire fiori e cuori anziché ca… e fi…, temo si stia facendo delle illusioni e che viva leggermente fuori dalla realtà.

Nulla da eccepire dunque sul linguaggio, mentre avrei da ridire qualcosa su alcune situazioni, che ai miei occhi risultano abbastanza surreali, ma su quelle in pochi avranno da obiettare, essendo situazioni comuni a molti scritti del genere, e mi riferisco a dimensioni e potenza, nonché alla capacità di Cannon di trasformare le proprie compagne di letto di una sera in stalker psicopatiche, con le sue doti da dio del sesso.

Il personaggio viene però messo in salvo dall’autrice da tale imbarazzante superficialità grazie a una approfondita descrizione degli altri aspetti che compongono la sua personalità. Questo per dire che, nonostante le esagerazioni, Cannon risulta simpatico e le lettrici non faranno fatica ad amarlo. Ciò vale un po’ meno per Paige, che in teoria dovrebbe essere più matura e in pratica non spicca per il carattere.

In conclusione, lettura piacevole e veloce, che vi farà star bene per qualche ora senza però lasciarvi nulla, tranne forse l’insegnamento lasciato dalla citazione di un famoso detto su limoni e limonate.

Le donne si gettavano ai miei piedi ogni giorno. L’amore non lo avevo mai considerato e non avevo in programma di cambiare le cose. Il mio cuore era come una trappola d’acciaio, forte e sicuro. Certo, potevano rimbalzare sul mio cazzo per un’ora ma era facile dir loro addio, perché non mettevo mai in gioco il cuore. Avevo degli obiettivi sorprendenti e non avevo mai immaginato una donna a fianco a me mentre li inseguivo.Punto. Fine della storia.

Finché non era arrivata Paige…

Recensione a cura di:

Editing a cura di:

No women.

No sex.

No hooking up.

This is the oath I took in solidarity with my best friend after a particularly heinous breakup left him shattered.

No problem, right?

Wrong.

Because lately, I’ve begun developing big, messy feelings for our best female friend who we both swore was off-limits since we were sixteen years old.

I shouldn’t notice the way her hair turns golden when it catches the light, I shouldn’t make it a goal to see her dimples when she laughs, I shouldn’t find her knowledge on current affairs so sexy.

I’m pretty sure she’s oblivious, which is a good thing, I try to convince myself. Until one night after too many cocktails when we fall into bed together.

I’m left with an awkward morning-after, and one of the hardest choices I’ve ever had to make.

Confess how I feel, and potentially lose both of my best friends in the process, or bury my feelings and watch her move on?

How can something so wrong feel so right?
