YES, I'D HATE HIM TOO.. IF I EVER GOT THE CHANCE!!

Who wouldn't hate this well loved Academy Award winning actor with his handsome face, fit body, sexy smile, drool-worthy bulge, dirty mouth, and his heart of gold when around his cute son.. yup awful and definitely not a DILTF.. nope not ever.. sigh. See I can be as delusional as Lucy can when it comes to her best friend's hot as hell sexy neighbor who she'd happily spied on and fantasized about while staying at Olive and Jason's house until the day Adam Connor had her arrested. And Lucy's over imagined Dad she'd like to .... suddenly turned into a Dad she'd like to throttle - and she didn't hold back when it came to letting him know how she felt. But underneath their witty barbed banter and glowering dark looks there was a simmering slow boil of sexual attraction that would, eventually, spill over and create one hell of a passionate flame.

Adam couldn't believe it.. after his bitter divorce he'd been trying hard to be the best joint custody Dad he could be for his five yr old son.. until the day the infuriating, feisty, sharp-tongued stalker/she devil next door had saved his precious son. Then it was Lucy this, Lucy that as his son instantly connected with her, brought her into their lives and forged a loving bond. And he? Well he couldn't believe that, despite all the easily tossed humorous insults and all the 'bring it on' heated hostile glares, there was a strong attraction too. Which eventually led to passion-filled stolen kisses, heartfelt warm feelings as he watched her loving interactions with his son and slowly Adam saw beneath Lucy's prickly defences to her kind, caring and loving heart. And Adam wanted that heart to be his - but it wasn't going to easy and it needed very careful handling as well as a lot of patience and understanding too.. however it would eventually be worth it.

Oh how I loved loved loved this humorous light listen with its deep undertones - the friendship between Lucy and Olive was so believable with their easy-flowing funny banter - the bond that was forged between Lucy and Adam's son Aiden was so sweet and supportive - Adam's love and devotion for his son was inspirational, right and real - and the jousting journey that Adam and Lucy's relationship took was all-consuming as their emotions slowly unravelled into a well-written wonderful love story. There was a bit of angst, a bit of drama, sexcapades, good secondary characters as well as a loveable h/h.. and the cherry on top of this delicious cake was the dual POV narration which brought every scene to life.. and made them pop.

Worth a credit? If you like, or are in the mood for, a highly entertaining and enjoyable Rom/Com.. then they surely don't come any better than this - and yes it was DEFINITELY creditworthy.

Funny, Sweet, Feel Good Romance!

My first Ella Maise story and it won't be my last. It was funny, steamy and had a lot of witty banter. I found myself laughing out loud. I LOVE IT, but I have to admit I almost did not make it past the first couple of chapters. Some of the dialogue between Lucy and Olive was annoying but once the pool scene hit (around chapter five) the story, dialogue and plot was awesome. I'm really glad I did not give up on this one!

Some spoilers;
After a break up, Lucy temporarily moves in with her best friend Olive and her husband Jason who happen to live right next door to the sexy movie star, Adam Connor. She secretly spies on Adam over the fence and takes a few pictures. One day while spying, she notices Adam's son, Aiden, is left alone by the pool where he puts on one arm float and gets in by himself. Watching from over the fence, Lucy sees the little boy start to panic when his arm float comes off and he starts swallowing water. Lucy realizes no one is coming to the little boys aid so she goes over the fence, and jumps in the pool to save him. Adam comes out and sees a stalker holding his son, and he has her arrested. Adam hates stalkers, and dislikes Lucy immediately. He's rude, won't listen to her, and her admiration for him quickly turns to hate. (Heck, I wanted to hate Adam.) After five hours in jail, Lucy's livid. Adam does end up dropping the charges when he learns the truth from his son and nanny. The next day, Adam and Aiden go next door to thank and apologize to Lucy. Lucy accepts, but they are hostile to each other. These two clearly do not like each other, but Lucy and Aiden bond well and Adam agrees to let Lucy watch Aiden for a week until he can find a new nanny. He may despise Lucy, but she's proven she will keep his son safe.

Adam and Lucy's hate quickly turns to attraction and the chemistry between them his hot. Adam was a swoon worthy DILF! He knows what he wants and goes for it! Awesome story with a few surprising twists. Well worth the time and definitely worth a credit!

Lidia Dornet and Sebastian York's performance ROCKED!

love & hate

this book is about love and hate I thought it was cute funny and in some parts there were intense moments I have to say the book didn't get interesting until the third chapter the first two chapters or about her complaining but once you get past that it's pretty adorable.

To Hate Adam Connor

I love a DILF!! Hahahaha

What!?!

We need some good DILF stories and this was awesome. I loved it from the very beginning to the end. Why did it take me so long to listen to it?!?
I am a huge fan of the narration, so I really had no excuses just that maybe I waited until I could truly appreciate this story.

I loved the Adam was not only an awesome dad but a movie star... I think I need to read more of them because I was sucked in. I like the bodyguard. ;)

Omg Aidan is the cuties little human!! The relationship he and Lucy forge is sweet and special and I loved that we saw the little boy fall in love with her before Adam did. ;)

We also get Olive and Jason too which was really nice and how the friendship between Olive and Lucy was so strong I just loved it. Sigh what a great book!

If you want good banter and an even better romance this is the book for you.

Annoying female lead

Sebastian York is the reason I even finished htis book. Lucy was annoying and I felt a complete disconnect with this one.

I mean, there is such a thing as too much

The story was pretty good and I liked the point of view, which broke the 4th wall quite a bit. As always, Sebastian York was fabulous. But, although I enjoy some hotness in a book, this one was just redundant. By the end I was like, "and they had sex again...." Did it really need to be a big part of the epilogue? Also, the conflict/problem was solved too quickly. Spend a bit more time on the story, a bit less on the O's.
