Katy Kaylee has written another great older man and innocent woman novel! The story features Maggie, who has been in love with her father’s best friend for years, and Cal, Maggie’s father’s best friend. Once in college, Maggie seduces Cal and they have a sexual encounter which afterward Cal feels he has betrayed her father and tells her it was a mistake. Maggie moves to Nashville and avoids Cal for five years when she returns with her daughter, Fern, who was fathered by Cal. I recommend this well written book as it has great characters, a wonderful plot, and lots of sizzling attraction!

Okay story
Well I liked some parts of An Innocent Thanksgiving there were some parts that I did not. I usually enjoy the older man / younger woman trope and even the surprise baby but this one did not make sense to me when you added that along with what happens in the present when the H and h get together again. So for me An Innocent Thanksgiving definitely was like a turkey in that it did not fly.
I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
This well-written story is a standalone romance from my Holiday Heat Series. The characters in this book are very strong-willed and willing to what they need to do what is right. They have great chemistry and even though they apart for years they are able to repair the relationship and he proves he is worthy of raising his child. I love the story and will be reading more from this Author. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone and does not involve any cheating. A must read HEA.

I really enjoyed reading this story because the story line was really good but the characters just seem like they are the people that you know. This is an older man/younger woman, father’s best friend type of story.
Maggie grew up around her father’s best friend Cal. He is a somewhat famous author that has never been in a relationship, but she has had a crush on him forever. When she came home from college for Thanksgiving, she gets the chance to show him that she isn’t a little girl anymore, she is a grown woman. She gives him her v-card and then around Christmas time she realizes the present that he left with her. She changes schools and doesn’t come home to visit when she knows he is around. Five years later, Cal shows up for Thanksgiving when she is there with their daughter. She never told her parents who the father was, only that he isn’t in the picture.
Cal has seen how Maggie has grown up and is stunning. He can’t resist her, and then afterwards he has all these regrets and says that it was a big mistake. He didn’t really feel that way, but what is he to say to his best friend about the feelings he has for Maggie. He has noticed that she hasn’t been around when he is, but when he shows up for Thanksgiving and she has a daughter with his eyes, he can do the math.
See how they get out of this conundrum with their feelings and how to deal with Maggie’s parents.

What you don’t know…
Artist Cal knew he’d made a mistake as soon as it was over. Having sex with his best friend’s daughter and taking her virginity isn’t something he’s proud of. But five years later he still dreams about her. But he told her that they couldn’t continue and it seems that she took him at his word. She’s avoided him ever since.
When Maggie seduced Cal, she thought all of her dreams were coming true. She’d loved him for years and now was the time, until it wasn’t. When he told her it was a mistake and couldn’t happen again, she was devastated. When she realized that she was pregnant, she figured that if he didn’t want her he certainly didn’t want a child. So she’s been raising her by herself. Until Thanksgiving comes around again and her unsuspecting father invites Cal to dinner. Now what?
An amazing and exciting older man younger woman romance with a riveting story line that is a well written, consistent, and well developed. Emotionally deep with drama, humour, witty banter, and more to look forward to in this story. The characters are strong and great together; their chemistry is intense, hot, and undeniable with sex scenes that are well described and off the charts! A recommended read.

Maggie had a crush on Cal, for years. Finally one night she seduced him. It was wonderful, but since he was the older one, he said that this can’t happen again.
Five years later he finds out that he has a daughter….
A sweet and wonderful book with good characters that you got to know.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book
Our hero still thinks about the woman he made love to five years ago: his best friend’s daughter. If he was right break it off, why does he still think about her?
This is a second chance, hidden baby, older/younger story. Yes, all of the above is there, but it works, so no complaints there. The story is well written and easy to read and features a straightforward plot. I love our heroine as I think she is intelligent and knows what she wants. I have a few issues with the hero, on the other hand. I really don’t like the entire trope of “that was fun, but we shouldn’t ever do that again because of…” In this case, the excuses were age gap and friend of father. Get over yourself and be honest instead of making excuses.
Other than that, I did enjoy the story overall. It did include some nice and steamy scenes and it ends with an HEA, so things get fixed. If only the hero hadn’t broken it in the first place
Recommended.

A well written older man younger woman romance from the very talented Katy Kaylee. Many would say that the age difference is too large after all he is her fathers best friend . Cal is a lot older and more experienced than Maggie but she ants him. Can their love survive or will peoples opinions pull them a apart You will have to read to see

This is a wonderful holiday story. This story is about Maggie and Cal. Cal is an artist and the story starts out with him in a gallery a Wednesday before Thanksgiving as they are getting ready for the Black Friday sales as well. Cal is thinking about five years ago when he last spent his Thanksgiving evening with Maggie as she had come to his place to give him her v-card. Cal is also the best friend of Maggie’s father, Mark. Maggie was in college when she decided to give Cal her v-card as she had a crush on him like forever in her world. Cal is an older man but couldn’t resist Maggie as he no longer saw the little girl but the woman before him. Well Thursday comes around and while at the store, he bumps into Mark, who notices that he intends on eating microwavable as his Thanksgiving dinner. He insists on him coming to the house for dinner instead. Well Maggie has a surprise that she has kept from him which is that he has a daughter name Fern. When he realizes this, he demands to get to know her and be a part of her life. He is taken seriously when he moves to Nashville to show Maggie that he wants to be there not only for Fern but for her too. Things take off from there as every time they meet, they cannot seem to keep their hands to themselves. Could they make this work? Would Mark be able to forgive his best friend for doing this to his daughter as all he knows about the father of his grandchild is that he didn’t want to have any.

I liked this age gap romance. However, I was not a fan of the actions of the heroine. Overall though I thought the story was fun and well written. Cal and Maggie had great chemistry and I really liked them as a couple.
