Strong languageExplicit sexAdult situationsOlder Woman/Younger ManRemmy Winters has survived a brutal divorce, the grueling heat of Las Vegas, and being judged on her physical assets instead of her brains. Now, as the CEO of the largest health foundation in the world, getting Dr. Jackson Oriell to fall in line should be effortless. That is until she sees him. Tall, young, and due to inherit … him. Tall, young, and due to inherit billions, he’s nothing more than a modern Neanderthal in a man bun. Regardless of her first impression, she finds herself strangely captivated by this hot mess. She’s never had a problem attracting men, but Jackson isn’t going to come easily or literally. He’s sure to be the challenge of a lifetime.
Jackson Oriell was born in Africa, educated in England, and is now exiled to Texas to spend time with his terminally ill father. After practicing medicine for the last six years in the jungle, he has returned out of love and duty. His main objectives are securing the funds to continue his research and getting back to Jabari. That is until he meets Remmy. Their first meeting is tempestuous and awkward at best. His father’s new CEO is sexy as hell, and everything about the petite spitfire sends his moral compass spinning.
Suddenly, everything he wants includes her. But he’s been holding on to a dark secret for years, and getting involved with Remmy could complicate everything. That one disastrous choice he made so long ago has haunted him and could topple his entire universe, destroying any future relationship with her as well as the reputation of the Oriell Foundation.

Dr. Jackson Oriell, (24) who is the estranged son of Constantine Oriell, returns home after living in the jungles of Africa for six years to take care his father during his last days.
Remmy Winters, (37) is CEO of the Oriell Foundation and Constantine’s right-hand lady.
Jackson and Remmy are two strong characters, and they that both give as good as they get, but the back and forth between them gave me whiplash. For two smart, educated people, they should know that sex is not the answer to every relationship problem/concern/idea…etc. Yes, I loved the attraction between these two, but come on. Oh..I hurt your feelings – lets have sex. Oh..I have a huge secret and I’m not going to talk about it – lets have sex. Oh..my cousins are idiots – lets have sex. Now, don’t get me wrong, the sex scenes were hot and their chemistry is fated, but I could have used some more dialog to help us dig deeper into their pasts.
It was like the book was slowly progressing to reveal Jackson’s big secret and then BAM, their story was over. A few twists and turns kept me turning the pages, as I wanted to see this story to the end. I will say that I loved the conclusion. Not a bad read overall, just wished that there was more to their backstories.
A fast-paced sexy romance with a little comedy and a large helping of biting wit. 5 Stars!
Cory scores again as this charismatic younger man meets his match in a sexy, self-assured older woman.
24 year old Jackson Oriell graduated Medical School at 18, and left his father to go back to the place he called home – Africa. He’s been leading the medical team in Jabari for the last six years, and is now back at his father’s side to see him through the final stages of his father’s illness.
Also at his father’s side is Remmy Winters, CEO of Constantine Oriell’s Health Foundation, and effectively Dr Jackson’s boss. She’s worked herself through a less than stellar upbringing, an acrimonious divorce and holds three degrees in Corporate Business Commerce, Bookkeeping and Architectural Engineering. She’s not only sharp and clever, she’s very protective of ‘Connie’ and, suspicious of his absent son.
Jackson and Remmy are two strong characters who know their own value and go head to head in this story that kept me entertained from first page to last. These guys give no quarter, and will go down biting, I mean fighting…!
The back and forth between Jackson and Remmy is hilarious, especially Jackson’s realisation that she has had quite the influence on his older stiff upper lip British father. Imagine the word “C0cksuck3r” being said in an upper-class English accent! Jackson would have been more amused if he wasn’t so gobsmacked!
The attraction is obvious and palpable. Seriously it is coming out of those pages, and even when Remmy seems to cave to it, Jackson remains stoic, internally acknowledging that the lie he is harbouring is too big to share.
Until he couldn’t. He knew that lie would catch him out, but he could no longer hold out.
I loved it, and I can’t say enough that you should read it as well. Definitely money and time is well spent with these guys. I’m rating this 5 Stars, and will leave you with my favourite quote. Remmie wants to cut Jackson down to size over events that occurred the previous night, and his reply??
“Lets not discuss social graces after you’ve turned my father into a potty mouth and you groped me last night for almost an hour, shall we?”
Loved the way Cory brought Remy and Jackson’s characters to life in Jacked Off.
Cory has a way of making you fall in love with Her male characters and Jackson is no exception.
From Neanderthal to hot executive. Yum !!
Cory is one of my all time favourite and automatic 1 click authors.
Do yourself a favour and buy not just this book but all of them .
What happens when a city woman meets the king of the jungle? Cory Cyr has your answer!
Remmy Winters has survived heartbreak and a brutal divorce. She has worked hard to get where she is and has earned her position as CEO of the Oriell Foundation, the largest health foundation in the world. She has also grown to care greatly for Constantine Oriell . . . creator of the Oriell Foundation and terminally ill with cancer. Their friendship has become priceless to Remmy and she promises to follow Constantine’s wishes to bring his estranged son home to take over the foundation before he dies.
Jackson Oriell has spent the last six years in the African jungle caring for it’s inhabitants. While he does want to spend time with his dying father, he has no plans of staying in the United States. All he needs is to ensure his research funding so that he can head back to Africa.
First Impressions say a lot. And the first meeting between Jackson and Remmy has sparks and tempers flaring. Remmy sees Jackson as a Neanderthal with a man bun. Jackson sees Remmy as a judgmental spitfire. However, their attraction is undeniable. While neither is willing to give in at first, fate has other plans for the couple.
Their age difference as well as their positions within the Oriell Foundation are definite stumbling blocks. But what truly has the power to bring them down is the secret from Jackson’s past that is about to change everything. Will Remmy and Jackson’s new relationship be able to survive their pasts?
Cory Cyr has an amazing skill for writing older woman / younger man romances and Jacked Off is no exception. Remmy has been through relationship hell and is in no way ready to deal with the likes of Jackson and his Alpha ways . . . yet she can’t seem to get him off of her mind. Jackson has no intentions of staying in Texas, however, Remmy has him considering a long term stay in Texas or making a long distance relationship work.
This is a fun romance with some depth to the plot. Jackson’s secret throws quite the punch and changes the direction of the story in a heartbeat! It’s intense and unexpected and forces both Jackson and Remmy to re-evaluate what they want and need in their relationship and in their lives.
5 stars for the King of the Jungle and his Queen for anyone who likes their romance a bit on the wild side!
Another excellent addition by Cory Cyr, loved it! Thanks Cory!!!!
After a nasty divorce Remmy can’t believe her luck when she finds her ideal job as CEO of a company, although her employer Constantine is dying and wants her to do one thing for him.
Constantine’s son Jackson is returning, and he wants Remmy to convince him to stay and take over the company when he dies, he warns her that it’s going to be difficult. The bond between Remmy and Constantine is beautiful, and she will do almost anything to fore fill his dying wish.
Jackson has just returned from the jungle and when Remmy first sees him she isn’t impressed, but after he returns all cleaned up there is no denying the chemistry between the two of them. You see how Jackson doubts love, although he wants what his parents had and Remmy is doubtful after what her ex-husband did.
Jackson and Remmy against all odds fall in love, which isn’t without its own problems. Jackson’s complication comes to the present and Remmy’s ex makes an appearance. Loved the ending and can’t wait to read more by this author
Brilliantly written!!
I absolutely fell head over hells for Remmy. Her spunky attitude, whitty comebacks, and resilience made me admire her even more. The relationship that she has with her boss, Constantine, aka Connie, pulled on my heartstrings. He is molding her into the perfect CEO for his company yet holding out hope that his son will one day take his rightful place at the Oriell Foundation.
Jackson, aka neanderthal with a man bun, has been a dedicated doctor working in the jungles of Jabari for 6 years. He loves his work and he could never take over his father’s company but he needs the funding to keep his work going. When he gets the call that his father is sick he drops everything to get to him. He expects his father to try to convince him to take over the company, but what he didn’t expect was Remmy.
This book has so many different emotions! It will make you laugh, cuss, swoon, not to mention the hot as hell sex! It is definitely a must read!!
