Guess what??? Yep Flora Ferrari has gone and done it again. Another quick, fun, steamy, panty melting instalove story. The up and coming writer and The editor that wants more than her book. Well developed characters with an intense chemistry. Can’t go wrong with this one. Just make sure a fan and dry panties are close by.

I really enjoyed this story. The characters were well developed.
Luke is an editor in a publishing house. He has to be friendly with clients and authors, but when he sees his newest author, everything changes. Despina is his and all he can think about is making sure that she knows she is his. He has to claim her.
Despina is an aspiring author and when she submits her book to a publishing house, she is surprised that the editor is her brother’s best friend. Luke is strong and handsome, but also a nerd. Despina is floored by how quickly she has fallen in love with the older man. Now, how does she deal with her brother?
Loved how Despina and Luke got together. Loved their happy ever after. I recommend reading this book!

Working with your publisher in a whole new way
*** 3 1/2 Stars ***
Well he definitely wears the dark rimmed glasses so I guess that makes Luke a very hot and sexy nerd. This is a sweet older man / younger woman novella that is a fun and flirty read with a nice amount of steamy sexy heat added.
My only complaint is that at the beginning of the story I felt like I was missing a chapter or two because of how fast Luke goes from zero to “Must. Make. Her. Mine”. But I just went where Flora Ferrari’s story took me and once again fell in love with her characters and enjoyed the book.
I liked that Despina meets Luke when she sends him her book to try and get published. I liked that they were both virgins and they had great chemistry together. I enjoyed reading this.

Luke is the editor of his publishing house and when he read Despina’s manuscript he knew he had to publish it. However it never hit him that Despina was his best friend’s sister until they meet in person and start talking. By then its too later because he wants her for his own and no one is going to stop him from claiming her. Despina is drawn to Luke and wants to be with him. However what her brother thinks holds her back from acting on what she wants to do with Luke. Will Luke claim his woman? Will Despina let her brother hold her back from what she wants in life?
This is a great story once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is off the charts hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Another great addition to the series and it was very enjoyable. An OM/YW OTT instalove romance that will leave you wanting more. Despina and Luke were so good together. Their chemistry and attraction for each other was so intense. Loved it.

This is a wonderful well-written fast-paced quick read, this older man office romance is incredibly sweet and steamy. Luke is immediately smitten with Despina from the moment the younger woman entered his offices, even when he realized she’s his friends younger sister,he knew she was the only one for him.
This is another wonderful addition to the A Man Who Knows What He Wants series, no cliffhangers, delightful HEA.
I received this book with the understanding that I could leave a voluntary and honest review.
In this book we meet Despina Jenkins and Luke Bloomenthal. The instant that Luke sees Despina he knows he has to make her his. He is determined to let nothing stand in his way. Luke is the owner of a publishing house and after reading her manuscript he knew he had to meet and sign this author. The thing is he thought she would be some old woman not the woman he was meant for. When they are finally face to face he realizes on other problem he will have, her brother. Despina can’t believe the man in front of her wants to publish her book. Sure she has seen her brother do it for years. He isn’t on the New York top 10 list but publishes enough to get by. She knows though with one look at this man that she wants more from him than for him to just publish her book. What will happen though when her brother finds out? Will they get the HEA they are both craving or will it all go down in flames?
This is another amazing hit by this author. It does have its ups and downs that 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.
This is another great story. it is a older man younger women romance. despina is a fiesty young women. Luke is despina brothers best friend. This has a great storyline.

I do so love a hot nerd.
Luke Bloomenthal is a publisher complete with glasses. He’s twice the age of Despina Jenkins. She’s the shy, timid and inexperienced girl who just wrote a book.
But they look familiar to each other.
Wonder why that is?
And what sort of trouble that spells for these two who are instantly attracted to each other.
Steamy and fun. With a hot nerd.
This was so stinkin’ cute. I mean, seriously: So. Stinkin’. Cute. Luke is the chief of a publishing house, and only takes the best of the best authors. Despina is a brand new author, whose brother – friends with Luke – led her to Luke’s company. Sparks fly, pages are ripped, and hearts come together in true love in a story that should really inspire.

Book lover…
I really liked Luke and Despina’s story but I LOVED the epilogue. These to were perfect for each other right down to their love of books. Really, how could you not like a story about fellow book lovers?!?

Real-life romance novel
Yet ANOTHER highly-enjoyable instalove romance from Flora Ferrari! A quick but great read!
Despina is a 21 year-old author in New York, trying to get her first book published – which just happens to be a romance novel. Luke is an editor at, (and the owner of), the publishing house she’s hoping to work with. He immediately loves her manuscript, and wants to offer her a contract.
She comes in for a meeting, and as he spots her speaking to the receptionist, Luke is immediately attracted to her, almost to the point of being obsessive and possessive. When she finally gets to actually meet him, she too is really drawn to him too, despite him being twice her age. During this initial meeting, it’s discovered that she is actually his friend’s brother, though of course they’ve never met before.
I won’t spoil this with too many details, but to kind of cut to the chase a bit… they do and don’t act on their obvious attractions to each other, someone isn’t really happy about it. There’s some drama and heartbreak, with control versus concern… But there’s also lots of love, passion, sweetness and steam!
And the epilogues made me smile and warmed my heart. They make quite the couple 😉

Luke is publisher when he is to meet with Despina. He loves the way she looks. When he meets her he realizes she is the little sister to his best friend. Despina just can’t take her eyes off of Luke. Glad he is giving her a chance with her book. Little does she know he is going to be giving her more then just the chance of publishing her book. The both love books and now they are going to be loving more then just books.

this was an interesting read. the older man with a possessive need with insta love for the younger author. with her brother creating waves between the couple, it set them at odds for a while, but love conquers all they say. it was a an okay read for a shot novella, but i wanted to see why Luke had made certain choices in his life that made their first time together so special.
wonderful story .. everything was just right and in proportion, I enjoyed it immensely. mine therefore 4 stars .. it just tastes like more, even though the book is closed properly.

This was a really cute read from Flora. Despina and Luke are cute together. Luke doesn’t want to fight his attraction and Despina tires to, however, that does not last long. This insta-love, forbidden brother’s best friend romance is short but super sweet and will leave you smiling!
