That smoking hot one-night stand with a former rock star? Turns out he’s my son’s new music teacher. The night I met Campbell all I knew was he played my body the same way he strummed a guitar — like he owned it. Now I’ve learned he’s the man coming to my house twice a week to teach my kid — the best music lessons money can buy.Time to turn down the volume on the late-night shenanigans with the … shenanigans with the sexy single dad. Only that’s easier said than done.

I can rock a guitar solo in front of thousands, I can write chart-topping tunes, and I can absolutely stop thinking about my student’s mother naked.
Trouble is, the more I get to know Mackenzie, the more I like all of her — she’s an awesome mom, a great friend, and she gets along perfectly with my teenage daughter.
All we have to do is set some rules and no one gets hurt.
It’s all working out beautifully. Until we start breaking the rules, one by one.

The first in Lauren Blakely’s new series is one that you will love right in the first chapter. We start off with Campbell Evans, teen heartthrob now an adult trying to figure out how to be sane, single father and hide his feelings to the first woman that has well waken him up. Then we have Mackenzie who has one job, being the best mom for her talented little musician feeling well like a woman after so many years. Lauren Blakely just created these two with so much fun, temptation and hello so much sexual chemistry between them it was hot. Cannot wait for Millers story next.

Dirty talker lovers unite! Campbell Evans has some words for you….that you cannot resist! PHEW this hawtness must be shared. Imagine this….a child star, musical prodigy, boy-band superstar, hotter than JT and BSB combined…..Now he’s a delicious music teacher by day, and a fun loving guitarist playing cover songs by night, but that cut jaw, chiseled body….Are you still with me….Yeahhh I’m melting too.
Lauren Blakely goes back to rom com’s that had me falling in love with her books years ago. This MUST READ is FULL of heart warming, tender moments that make my heart soar…complimented perfectly by those sexy beast moments that keep me coming back for more. LB writes the perfect mix that makes her the mayor of swoon city. I can never get enough and I want MORE MORE MORE of Mackenzie and Campbell. These characters are just awesome. Mackenzie’s trivia awesomeness rivals no other, but more than that, she is a full fledged bad ass mom! I loved her so hard, and adding Campbell to the mix was divine.
I fell head over heels for this duo!!! I’m so freaking excited for the rest of this series. Thankfully, Lauren’s not making us wait long for the next release.
I really enjoyed this book about Mackenzie and Campbell. It was fun and flirty and I can’t wait to read the next book in this series!
Blakey always delivers! Wonderful characters and story line! Definitely a page turner with plenty of romance and sizzle.
This book!! This is what I’ve been waiting for! Now, I’ve read every single one of Lauren’s books but this takes me back to the days of Clay and Julia and I LOVED it!! The chemistry, the dirty talk…whoa!
Once Upon A Real Good Time is the story of Campbell and Mackenzie, two single parents who really are truly an amazing couple! I was sucked into their story from the first chapter and did not put the book down until the very last page. Their chemistry and banter was sexy, hot and oh so fun and their relationship was pure magic. I loved how both kids were front and center in the story. While the story itself moved along at a nice pace, the relationship between Campbell and Mackenzie never felt forced and really came into its own at the pace it needed to.
I enjoyed that there wasn’t any over the top drama, just a tiny bit of angst to keep that little flutter in your chest. I really loved every single moment of this story and I cannot wait for the next book in the series.
