Kingsley
Something about Roxanne Young captured my attention before I even met her… the second I read her romance novel, I knew she was something special. Little did I know that she was going to be a familiar face from my past… Ivy
I always knew I was going to write under a pseudonym… after all, Roxanne Young is much more experienced in the language of love than me… a complete virgin … in the language of love than me… a complete virgin at the age of twenty-one. But I guess my older brother’s ex-best friend – and the CEO of the publisher I just submitted to – might be able to step in and give me some inspiration.
*Claimed By The Publisher is a SHORT insta-everything standalone instalove romance with an HEA, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.more
Loved this. Fun characters who were likeable and relatable. Exciting storyline and lots of drama. Read cover to cover because it was that good.

In this book we meet Ivy Miller and Kingsley Collins. Ivy has been sending out her manuscript under the name Roxanne Young. So when she gets a response back from Kingsley Collins saying his publishing house wants her manuscript she can’t believe it. She agrees to meet him for dinner to discuss the contract. She knows there is something familiar about his name but just can’t place it. That is until she gets to dinner and realizes this is her brother’s ex-best friend. Kingsley can’t believe his eyes when he sees Ivy walking towards him. It has been 3 years since he has laid eyes on her and she is even more beautiful then he remembers. The reason is because her brother caught him checking her out and that was the end of their friendship but not for his desire for Ivy. Will they get that chance at a HEA or will her family make sure that never happens?
This is another hit out of the park for this author. It does have its ups and downs I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin the story for any other readers. I will say this book will have you hooked from the first word to the very end. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.
A quick and steamy insta-everything romance
Ivy, closet author, submitted a manuscript under a pen name to a publishing company run by Kingsly, her brother’s ex best friend. As the story progresses good news comes, an ultimatum is laid down, and going for what you want may just not be enough. Flora Ferrari’s Claimed by the Publisher is a quick and steamy insta-everything romance with a strong cast of character personalities.

Totally insta love and full of gushy love. Ivy is an author or soon to be author and gets accepted by king publishing for her first book. Unbeknownst to her it’s her brothers ex best friend, Kingsley. He wants her, he has for the last 3 years and has broken his friendship with his friend. With her father and brother causing problems will there be a good outcome???? A good story with the insta love I love. Loved how protective he was towards her and took no rubbish off her brother and father.
I loved reading this book. It was about Ivy, a single young woman who has written her first romance book and is trying to get it published. Kingsley is the CEO of a publishing company and Ivys brothers ex-best friend. He didn’t recognise Ivys name at first as she write her book under a pseudonym. It has some drama and is hot and steamy. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.

I enjoyed this instalove romance of Ivy and Kingsley. She is a new young author writing under the name Roxanne Young and she’s just submitted her book to a publisher. Kingsley the CEO of the publishing company, who is also her brother’s ex-best friend, reads and is impressed with her manuscript. They make an appointment to meet for dinner to discuss the book. They are both shocked to see each other and the sparks fly. This is where the story gets really good. I received an arc of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Growl much?
What’s with all the growling the MC Kingsley was doing? I thought I was reading a contemporary steamy romance not a paranormal featuring shifters. I’m not sure if the author thought him growling every time he spoke was suppose to be sexy or not but I thought it was just a little annoying. The premise of the book was fine…older man falling in love with ex best friend younger sister. It wasn’t an instant attraction on Kingsley part. He been in love/lust with Ivy for 3 years which was the cause of he friendship with the brother to be broken. Ivy on the other hand took one look at Kingsley and was hooked. She fell instantly in love with the older man The couple has to deal with Ivy’s family disapproval but after an incident that lands Kingsley in trouble, Ivy gives her family an ultimatum. Things turn around for everyone once the air is cleared and the couple have a lovely HEA. The epilogue was very nice. I always enjoy the author’s epilogues.

Roxanne Young, the pseudonym used for her writing, is excited at the email from Kingsley Collins, the CEO of King Press. He wants to meet to discuss her book! For some reason, he feels special to her, like she knows him, yet she doesn’t know why. But if this goes well, she will at last be able to give up her part-time job and move out of her father’s apartment. She is so ready to start her own life. She tells her dad and brother she is going to meet friends for cocktails and she heads to the restaurant. As she is led to the table, she looks up in shock to see Kingsley Colls is her brother’s ex-best friend!
Kingsley recognizes Ivy Miller immediately. She hasn’t left his mind for the past three years since her father’s birthday party. Her manuscript was really good and he wants to offer her a publishing contract. And he wants to make her his. He knows her brother and father know how he feels and don’t approve. But he is not giving up his chance if she wants him too.
Ivy feels the sizzling chemistry between them. But she is curious as to what broke up his friendship with her brother. They had known each other over 12 years and Jasper had always talked about him constantly. Kingsley told her it happened at the birthday party. Jasper was flirting with two women, Kingsley wasn’t at all interested in them, and then he saw a woman across the room who took his breath away – he wanted her to be his! Oddly, Ivy felt possessive and didn’t want to know about that other woman. But he kept talking about how Jasper noticed that Kingsley was absolutely obsessed – and told him to stay away from his SISTER! Ivy could hardly breathe! But now she could see the hunger in his eyes – for HER! And he was going crazy waiting for her to say something! She didn’t “need” him; she was a fantastic writer who could go anywhere with that manuscript. But did she feel anything for him? And was she willing to face her father and brother if she wants to be his? She has her whole future ahead of her. What will she choose, and will he be part of it?
I loved this story. The author is so talented with showing the reader how her characters feel, and it is instantly felt by the reader who cares about them. Will Kingsley and Ivy find their HEA? And if there are bumps ahead of them, is their love strong enough to pull them even closer?
This was an excellent read. The family dynamics was absolutely crazy. The characters were great. The storyline was spot on. The ending was sweet.

Another great insta love by Flora Ferrari who once again brings an older man/younger woman romance with strong characters and an interesting story. It’s well written,moves quickly and smoothly and I loved reading .. especially the extended epilogues.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. All opinions in this review are my own and freely given.
Some relationships take time to develop but if it’s meant to be it will happen. Kingsley has been on n love with Ivy for years but is he finally going to get the woman he has been dreaming about? I love how er brother and dad find the need to meddle and protect her when she is an adult. What a romantic short read that will not disappoint.

This was a wonderfully written romantic read that you are surely to enjoy. The plot was straight forward from the beginning with the characters spot on. The two main characters had amazing chemistry together from the start. Her family did not like Kingsley as he was her brother Jasper’s age, which was fifteen years older than her and his ex-bestfriend. Her actions had to prove to her family that their relationship was serious. Showing an unbelievable depth of emotion on all fronts making this one gem of a story.
