Foster Kavanaugh, former Navy SEAL, knows what it’s like to be the top dog, the man in charge, the one calling the shots. Now that he’s running his own security consulting firm, not much has changed.Except the curvy blonde he hired as his office manager.Noelle Davis has been through the damn ringer. Swearing off men after escaping a toxic relationship, she’s grateful for a fresh start—new job … a fresh start—new job included. Of course, her job isn’t tranquil and calm. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Because her boss is the most infuriating man on the planet.
And, not to mention, sexy as hell.
Foster has limits. Rules. No attachments allowed because he doesn’t do love—and Noelle Davis foiled that plan and took a red pen to his list of rules. With her smart mouth and quick witted banter, he found the woman beginning to creep past his defenses.
When circumstances put Noelle in a perilous position, the first person to come to her rescue is none other than Foster Kavanaugh. She gets to see the man in action—not as her aggravating boss, but the man who will stop at nothing to ensure her safety.
The same man who makes her want to reconsider her self-imposed embargo of men.
The man she wants to get to know now that she’s seen another side of him.
The man who makes her want…more.
But it more possible when you’re OUT OF LOVE?

Read this a while back and fell in love with this author. Her writing style is smart, funny, angsty and hella steamy. As was the case with, Out of Love. Foster Kavanaugh is a veteran in the military who runs a security company. Noelle is his office manager who’s running away from a troubled past. The two are oil and water, but have crazy- ridiculous steam. Foster’s attraction to Noelle infuriates him to the point his verbal orders are abrasive. He’s no novice to a troubled past. He’s got his own demons he wrestles. He’s sworn off love; allowing only casual hookups to ebb is sexual prowess. But as Noelle’s past catches up with her present, his protective nature kicks in. For once (besides family) he lets down his guard to be a selfless form of protection for Noelle. Will he let her in completely and put his ego aside? Is love enough to mend his broken heart? Find out yourself with this incredible read. It is everything and more. The sexy scenes were beyond steamy. Hot. Hot. Hot. No where near raunchy. Plus, there was an added element of suspense I really liked. Gave it a twist I didn’t suspect. My only critique was that the ending’s too short. I want more. Just my personal opinion.

I loved Foster and Noelle’s story. It was touching. I adored how protective Foster is of Noelle, even when his caveman side was showing. Noelle is a little firecracker. She gives Foster a run for his money. Together the two make an amazing pair. I loved the banter between the two. I can honestly say theirs is a story I would definitely read over again.

I cant stop laughing and also sad..whem you have guilt and fear, its very hard to see yourself in the best term.. so does Foster.. I love the chase.. sexy taunting… if you love sexy comedy.. this book is for you
I do believe this is my favorite book from RC Boldt! I was IN LOVE with Foster Kavanaugh! We’ve seen him in the Teach Me series so the reader knows a little to his background, however those books don’t have to be read to understand this one. However, I do HIGHLY recommend reading those first. Noelle and Foster work together and their banter is very enjoyable. They both give as good as they’ve got to each other and often times, it’s laugh-out-loud-funny. Noelle has a past that she hasn’t divulged to her boss or her coworkers, despite security being their jobs. She is trying to move on, except her past doesn’t want to let go. Circumstances push Noelle and Foster together in an unconventional way, but the sexual tension is through the roof and decisions have to be made. I was completely captivated by their story and didn’t want to put the book down. I loved the fact that we still saw their friends, but the majority of this book was focused on the two of them. Great book! Grab your copy today!
I really enjoyed this book and I absolutely loved the witty and funny ban-ter between the characters. I sometimes had to laugh so hard it even almost hurt =P
All characters were new to me as I haven’t read the Teach Me Series and I have to say that one or two side characters of this book really intrigued me and I’d love to read their stories. This book is a standalone but I asked myself if I would have liked and understood the characters better if I had read the Teach Me Series because I felt that there wasn’t much back-story in this book.
The story touched on some heavy topics and it bothered me a bit that the meaningful and essential parts were too rushed and I couldn’t sympathize with the characters and what they’d gone through because of that. It just missed on some depth and coverage.
Story:
Former Navy SEAL Foster Kavanaugh is still indecisive if it was a good de-cision to hire Noelle Davis or not. She’s a great employee but all the naughty thoughts running rampant in Foster’s mind are distracting as hell especially because she’s off limits.
Noelle Davis has sworn off men but it’s hard not to admire her hot boss with all those hard abs she would love to get a closer look at. But that’s something she could never allow herself for obvious reasons and even if he wasn’t her boss, he doesn’t even like her.
When her new built life suddenly starts to crumble, it’s none other than Foster who’s helping her and it’s getting harder and harder for both of them to resist the sexual attraction crackling between them.
But eventually it’s not just her troubled past that keeps them from getting emotionally involved but also Foster’s demons which haunt him since his last mission and he has to remind himself getting involved with Noelle is a bad idea because she is too good for him and deserves someone better.
Thoughts:
I fell in love with the story from the beginning but was slightly disap-pointed when it was dragging sometimes.
As mentioned above, I loved the writing and the hilarious parts of this book though I missed some depth of the story.
I really liked the characters but loved Foster the most with his funny and possessive side but also his caring and attentive characteristics. There was lots of sexual tension and some really steamy scenes that I enjoyed in this book.
I was perplexed and quite confused as to why Noelle went to dinner with her boss at his mother’s house. I thought that this was weird since they both were so adamant to not get sexually involved with each other because of their employer/employee status.
Although the plot isn’t something new as I’ve read a few similar stories before, I loved it a lot. Foster and Noelle’s banter was the best and I could’ve read about them bickering for days without getting bored. But when things started to get more series I just couldn’t keep up with the charac-ters’ emotions because it felt off to me. I wasn’t fully involved with them and didn’t quite buy into their feelings for each other, especially from Noelle because the few moments I really felt any affections, they came from Foster at his house when they both couldn’t sleep.
I enjoyed the lighthearted parts but when it came to the meaningful and troubled moments in this book I felt that they weren’t covered to my satis-faction. When Noelle’s troubled past catches up with her I liked how Foster cared about her and how he dealt with it but I didn’t get enough of No-elle’s side to grasp her emotions about any of this which left me emotion-ally empty while reading about everything that’s going on.
Maybe the author tried to stay on the lighter side of the story without drifting too much into emotionally deep territory but especially when it came to Foster and his demons I felt just sorry but emotionless otherwise. For such a sensitive person like me was this really weird because I liked the book but felt so closed off to everything going on that it really pre-vented me from caring about the characters.
I guess I just missed some more of the serious conversations and how they really got to know each other and worked things out but it wasn’t till the end until I really felt something between them. I loved that at the end there was finally some depth and issues were spoken aloud which have been tiptoed around the whole time.
I was a bit upset that a few story lines were left open by the author be-cause I’m such a curious and impatient person I really wanna know more. So I hope we get another book coming to close off those loose threads.
Out of Love is a bit of a slow burn romance. It is loaded with fun, flirty, sexy and some really funny banter. But that is not all it is. I really enjoyed that this was also a swoony ROMANTIC story!
Foster who is a former Navy SEAL has to fight his alpha, overprotective side as he tries to keep Noelle safe.

I loved the elements of mystery and suspense that kept me guessing throughout. This was a new to me author and I’m definitely a fan now and can’t wait to read more!
