Matt was handsome and nice, the kind of man every … dad.

UNDENIABLE is the fourth instalment and novella in Aleatha Romig’s contemporary, adult INDULGENCE erotic, romance series. This is thirty six year old Matt Hamilton, and eighteen year old, university student Sophie Hawkins. UNDENIABLE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.
NOTE: UNDENIABLE was originally released as a podcast story line.
Told from dual first person perspectives (Matt and Sophie) UNDENIABLE is an age-gap romance focusing on the ‘forbidden’ relationship between thirty-six year old Matt Hamilton, and eighteen year old Sophie Hawkins. Sophie Hawkins is Matt Hamilton’s daughter’s one-time best friend but separated by years and the loss of her parents, Sophie hasn’t seen Matt or Becky since childhood. A recent party where Sophie worked and served as part of the catering crew brought Sophie face to face with her teenaged fantasy, a fantasy that was about to come true. Enter Matt Hamilton, the man Sophie has fantasizesd about for most of her life. What ensues is the quick building and highly sexual relationship between Sophie and Matt, and the potential fall out when Matt re-introduces Sophie to his eighteen year old daughter.
Matt Hamilton never questioned his attraction to his daughter’s eighteen year old friend, a friend with whom he was about to profess his love, his desire and his need. A quick building, erotic relationship wherein our hero ‘teaches’ Sophie Hawkins what it is she has been missing all of her life.
UNDENIABLE is a Quick read; a fast paced, short story of insta-lust and love; a tale of erotica focusing on the sexual relationship between an older man, and a younger woman. The premise is engaging but reads like it was written by a first time author; the romance is provocative but I dislike the use of a certain four-letter word; the characters are energetic -the heroine is innocent and naive; the hero is determined to claim Sophie as his own.
3.25-3.5 STARS
Aleatha Romig’s latest addition to her Indulgence series, “Undeniable,” is a very steamy novella revolving around a forbidden romance. As with most of Aleatha’s stories, “Undeniable” will test the boundaries of what most would consider to be acceptable. For me, this was a non-issue. I personally love Aleatha’s dark side and am not easily offended by the twisted or taboo.
While I give Aleatha props for delivering a story complete with a HEA ending in a mere 14 chapters, it lacked the type of angst and complication that really draws me in. For such a taboo subject, dare I say, “Undeniable” came across a little too “sweet” and “perfect” for my personal tastes. So, while it was a good read overall, it just isn’t my favorite Aleatha story.
Aleatha Romig is a go to author for me. I was looking forward to this book as I do love an age gap story. This is a quick read with a lot of steamy, hot love scenes, but I needed a little more from the characters.
Well, this erotic novella may be a short but it sure is a whirlwind full of events. I can’t believe how much happens in this story. Aleatha Romig sure has a way with words. Undeniable is taboo, fast paced, and super steamy.
I have mixed feelings about this one. I love Aleatha’s writing and how invested in the characters the reader can become and I feel that’s true with this book (to the degree possible with the short length). I’m not a huge fan of age gaps, but the story can make me dismiss it. It was harder for me to do that in this book and I’m not sure how realistic the resolution with his family was. Overall, the writing was up to par for Aleatha, but the story is not a favorite of mine.
