OMG! Did I just bid and win a date with Shane Rempel for over one thousand dollars?!What the hell was I thinking? Was I not the one who just said I would never spend that kind of money for a date with a stranger?!Apparently, all sane thoughts just flew right out the moment HE walked up on that stage at the auction.I was hooked line, sinker and all.And let me tell you, if you spend that much money … all.
And let me tell you, if you spend that much money for a date, you definitely go on that date. So, I went.
And guess what? It kind of ended with me starting a war with the guy on the said date. And I even did a walkout.
Yeps and after that disastrous first meeting, you definitely do not expect the guy to turn up at your workplace asking for another date!
But he did. And guess what I did…
This is the second book in the steamy romance series, Rules of Love and can be read as a stand alone.
No cheating. No cliff-hanger. And the kind of ending you will just love. Team HEA all the way!!

This is a fabulous turnaround on auctions, lately you would expect it to be ladies but this is Shane who has been cajoled into offering up his services at the date auction and Rayvn who has just coughed up a lot of money to have that date, what happens on it though is another matter.

(Review with spoilers)
Great romance. I loved it.
Shane has never believed in love. Rayvn did, but now she doesn’t think she can have it anymore. Can they have a future together.
I loved them both.
Shane didn’t want anything else, just sex, but he looked at Rayvn, he spent time with her, and he was lost. He didn’t try to resist. He wanted what he never wanted. He wanted to fight for her. I loved that Shane has grown, that he has matured . He’s still the same, he can’t not say what he thinks, but he’s grown up.
Rayvn didn’t want anything else either. Just sex, She was ready. Or so she thought. She thought it would be easy, but it wasn’t. She didn’t want to want more, but She did, and it hurt, because she thought it wouldn’t last.
I think Shane was more mature than she was. He struggled to figure out how he felt, why he spent his whole life avoiding anyone, but he was more willing to fight for Rayvn, for his relationship, than she was. He was afraid, he didn’t know if it would work out, but for once he wanted to try. Rayvn is worth it.
The ending is perfect.
I loved seeing Shane with Nina, how theirr friendship stays the same. It would have been nice to see Chet.
I recommend it.
I received an ARC from the author, and this is my honest review.
Lindsey Hart did a great job creating characters and writing their story to include their emotional baggage. This was a touching, smetimes steamy read. I’m looking forward to reading more from Ms. Hart.
I really enjoyed this book. This is a sequel to Love Contract and I think I liked this book even more. We get to see Shane and Nina again. Shane gets his HEA.

Captivating Romance!
Engaging romance between Ravyn and Shane shows the healing power of love. This second book in the series is a wonderful addition. The strong characters and interesting storyline are well written, believable and truly entertaining. I love that they successfully overcame their very emotional scars to find happiness, love and a heartwarming HEA. Enjoy!
I received an arc copy and am happy to leave my honest review.
This was a great story and was very entertaining. Once I started I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between the hero and heroine is sizzling hot. I would recommend this to anyone that loves a great love story.
“I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.”
Enjoyed this book with Rayvn and Shane.
They get off to a rocky start.
Can Shane get a little of his fabled game back to see what he’s missing out if he lets Rayvn hi?
Bidding at a action and finding the one
Rayvn and her friends get invited to an auction to bid on dates. Rayvn didn’t plan to bid but one look at Shane’s eyes and she bid a thousand dollars! He was talked into it by his sister-in-law. He and Rayvn go on their date but things end abruptly and she storms out. He finds her the next day and wants another date! These two people have things in their past they need to work through together before it gets to far into their future.
She overpaid, just a little. Yes, she overpaid and got an epic fail of a date for her time…however, Shane went out of his way to make up for his premature expectation. I didn’t have high hopes for the book based on other stories I’ve read by Lindsey Hart, but I found myself just a bit charmed by the MCs, expecting a familiar “enemies to lovers” story line. I particularly found Rayvn to be a sympathetic character.
I understand the insta-lust that drives many stories, but I do think to turn those feeling into love takes more time than the author gave the reader. It just didn’t seem like they really had a chance to really get to know each other.
That said, I enjoyed the book and finished it happily. Though given an ARC, I have provided my honest opinion.
This book was a delightful story with a different beginning. The characters were great and had a rough start. I felt a little sorry for Shane, he was so clueless. I enjoyed this story very much. I received this book as an ARC and I am voluntarily reviewing this book.
This is the second book in the Rules of Love series and it was even better than I imagined!! Rayvn goes to a charity date auction and buys a date with Shane, things don’t go very well and Ravyn leaves the date early. Shane tracks her down and apologizes and asks for another date, and she agrees. I loved the interactions, banter, chemistry and romance between the characters. This book is an absolute must read!

If you don’t like sexy guys that are almost too to handle. If you don’t like great banter between leads. If you don’t like the kind of story where the guy starts off a bit of a jerk but romance develops as he does too. Then skip this book. If that stuff is at all appealing to you the Rayvn and Shane’s story is one you need to run to get (and, oh yes, it has a great plot with a really string cast of lead and supporting characters and is superbly written, if those sort of minor things matter to you as well…). But for the fact that I’m literally dictating this review to my husband from my hospital bed I could go on and on with praises. The book definitely deserves it. Since I can’t do that I will simply note that the book is most definitely one to read, and it is easy to highly recommend.
I was given an ARC if this book and it is thd first time I am reading one of Ms Hary’s books. I loved this book, the story is good. I enjoyed the humor between the main characters. They were just made for each other and I loved how the author made it that they brought out the best in each other. I would definitely read her again.

What a fun story. What fun characters.
There is heart and emotion in both Rayvn and Shane.
He really is just a ‘nice’ guy even though he has been a bit of a womanizer.
In the beginning Rayvn thinks ‘jerk’.
Nice guy Shane isn’t usually too interested in serious dating.
A date or two is usually enough and then he’ s on to the next beautiful woman crossing his path.
Marriage and kids are just not on his radar.
Then he meets Rayvn and it all changes.
And then there’s Rayvn that is recently divorced and still reeling from the loss of a child. Meeting another man is not on her radar either.
This was just a good love story. There are a few bedroom scenes and MaMa might want to toss it. But Jazzy Grandma would tell her grab a fan and keep reading!
I really enjoyed Love Auction and meeting Lindsey Hart. I will be reading more!
Check it out it’s on sale today.
I received a complimentary copy.
The author deals with such a delicate subject in this book and I can honestly say that I am impressed with the level of compassion and respect with which the issue was dealt with and the empathy that is drawn from the reader with regards to Rayvn’s heartbreaking loss. Shane didn’t exactly have a good example of a loving and stable relationship and as a result has shut himself off from finding someone to share his life with. When these two meet there are fireworks but not in a good way. Can they get back from a disaster of a first date and actually have a chance of building something that will heal the broken pieces of each of them?
I really enjoyed reading this book about Rayvn and Shane relationship!! They both came from broken relationships and met at a auction that turned into love!!! This was a great read and worth giving a try!!
LOVE AUCTION by Lindsey Hart is a great read. interesting,steamy and enjoyable story well written, interesting characters with great chemistry,well done!

This book should be read after Love Contract.
Nina takes a poster to the shop that Rayvn, Charlotte and Laney work. They all agree to go to the auction, but don’t plan to bid on one of the guy in the auction.
When Rayvn sees Shane she ends up winning the bid for Shane to go on a date with her. The date become a disaster and Rayvn runs out after Shane declares he is against marriage and kids.
Shane is determined to have an another date with Rayvn. Their relationship goes back and forth, trying to develop a relationship and breaking up, then back together and breaking up again. Read on to find you what they go through to be together or not. Read on as it is a good book. I laughed, I cried and had a hard time putting the book down.

Rayvn and Shane appeared to be polar opposites, until they weren’t. Good storyline with strongly developed characters. Really good read!

This is the second book in the Rules of Love Book Series. It was well written and the pages ran smoothly. I was hooked from the first chapter. It was a really good read. I thought Shane and Rayvn had good chemistry. I look forward to reading more books by Lindsey. Thank you Passion House and Lindsey for letting reading this book.
