Nothing has ever come easy for Lila Bailey. She’s fought for every good thing in her life during every day of her thirty-one years. Aside from that one night with an impossible to deny stranger a year ago, Lila is the epitome of responsible. Steadfast. Strong. She’s pulled herself out of the train wreck of her childhood, proud to be a professor at Tulane University and laying down roots in a city … down roots in a city she’s grown to love. But when some of her female students are viciously murdered, Lila’s shaken to the core and unsure of whom she can trust in New Orleans. When the police detective assigned to the murder case comes to investigate, she’s even more surprised to find herself staring into the eyes of the man that made her toes curl last year.
In an attempt to move on from the tragic loss of his wife, Asher Smith moved his daughter and himself to a new city, ready for a fresh start. A damn fine police lieutenant, but new to the New Orleans force, Asher has a lot to prove to his colleagues and himself.
With a murderer terrorizing the Tulane University campus, Asher finds himself toe-to-toe with the one woman that haunts his dreams. His hands, his lips, his body know her as intimately as he’s ever known anyone. As he learns her mind and heart as well, Asher wants nothing more than to keep her safe, in his bed, and in his and his daughter’s lives for the long haul.
But when Lila becomes the target, can Asher save her in time, or will he lose another woman he loves?

I just love this series! I enjoyed reading this one and fell in love with Asher and Lila’s story. Another HOT and loving romance. Hope we get more books in this series
I Love Asher and Lila
We met widower, Asher Smith, and his young daughter, Casey, in Tied With Me…Asher was Matt Montgomery’s partner in Seattle…Now, Asher and Casey have relocated to New Orleans to be closer to family, and the woman with whom he had an unforgettable one night, 9 months ago, is also living in New Orleans, now, and, coincidentally, is a central figure in the serial killer case Asher is trying to solve…..
Lila Bailey is a college professor with girls from her study group being killed….When the lieutenant investigating those deaths turns out to be Asher, the hot man she spent the night with so long ago and thought she would never see again, his protecting her becomes his priority…but she’s just trying to protect her heart…
Easy With You is a good little novella bridging the With Me In Seattle series and the Boudreaux series….and it’s Kristen Proby, so you know it’s good…
Great story. Asher and Lila met on a plane months before this story and had a one-night stand in the first book. Now they meet again months later when a serial killer is targeting students of Lila’s study group. Asher is newly relocated to New Orleans from Seattle and Lila had just accepted a job at Tulane after their tryst in the first book and both thought each lived elsewhere. Surprise! Now when the killer is apparently targeting Lila and Asher is going to protect her. Oh, this one was so good, would have made for a great full length book but I understand it being a novella and it was good to have Matt and Nic show up for the cameos.
I enjoyed this novella! It was quick and steamy and suspenseful. It was my first Kristen Proby read/listen (I know, I know…hanging my head in shame) and I look forward to reading more of her work!
Asher is a sexy AF cop and a single dad. He’s protective and bossy and I loved the way he cares for his daughter and for Lila.
I listened to the audiobook and was pleasantly surprised by the two narrators I hadn’t listened to before.
I am a big fan of this series, and Easy With You does such a great job of crossing over the Boudreaux and With Me in Seattle series by Kristen Proby. Asher had been introduced in Tied with Me (he’s Matt’s partner) and Lila in Easy Love (she’s Kate’s best friend), and right from the beginning, these two are awesome together!
I highly recommend not just this book, but both of these series!
**I’ve also listened to the audio, and I love getting back to Jennifer Mack and Eric Michael Summerer!
Lila and Asher meet up again, but Asher isn’t the only one after Lila. Lila is in the middle of serial killer’s path and only Asher can save her. Will he lose her like he did his wife? This story was full adventure, drama, romance, spice and suspense. I loved this book so much and didn’t want to put it down. Great short story and one you won’t get enough of.
