Jasper Bergen gets his story in Man Feast. Elle and Jasper do not like each other. Forced to not only work together, but be in the same place at the same time due to Brennen and Abby getting married, does not make for happy people!! Due to both Jasper and Elle having been any relationships for a while, meddling Abby proposes a man feast. Where these two can both get what they need with no commitment. What happens when feelings get involved? Can Jasper and Elle learn to be together? Will they have their HEA with each other? Love this series!!!
4.5 Stars!
Jasper…UGH, he drove me crazy! There were points that I wanted to smack him; but he grew on me, the more we got to know him you start to understand him a little bit better. The banter between Jasper & Elle was funny, the chemistry hot, but oh the battles. Their back stories, the Bergen family and the Man Feast make this a well-rounded, easy to read story that makes you keep turning pages.
I can’t wait for the elusive Camden in Man Find!
This author definitely made sure that Jasper and Elle had a story that was just as angsty and entertaining as the first book in this series (Man Fast). Jasper is a tad rigid and unbending in all aspects of his life, and he has zero tolerance for the seemingly flighty, irresponsible Elle. It’s just too bad he’s got her pegged all wrong and his libido has decided that his brain doesn’t get to run this show, because his body and heart know that she’s the person that could change everything for the better.
Elle is dealing with financial upheaval, to put it mildly, and the stress of keeping her problems private while making sure that those who depend on her aren’t inconvenienced at all, so she certainly doesn’t have the patience needed to deal with a perceived hollow bunny robot like Jasper. But, like Jasper, her body and heart also have a different opinion than her brain about this man.
Their unwanted attraction finally sparks and starts Elle’s man feast, but will attraction be enough when the unexpected happens? At first, it would seem that the answer is no, but nobody ever said the road to HEA would be easy for a man who’s mired in the guilt of his past or a woman used to relying only on herself.
Thanks to humorous interference from the Bergen clan, Jasper and Elle find their way and get the happy life they deserve. I can’t wait to see what plays out next for this family!
I can’t say enough about this book. How best to describe them other than comparing them to oil and vinegar. So very different but not really. This is my first read by Krista Sandor but most definitely not my last. You can’t help but want for their happily ever after because they both deserve it.

I loved this book so much! It is such a real thrill to read stories that keep you involved from beginning to end.
Jasper and Elle don’t necessarily hit it off well when they first come together but sometimes there is more to the story!
What I love so much about them is that they are not perfect but when chemistry gets involved they find they could be perfect for each other!
Another heartwarming story. The banter between Elle and Jasper is well written. There are moments that will melt your heart and make you laugh out loud. I really enjoyed reading this and look forward to reading the next book. I received an ARC of this and volunteered to review it.
I received this early, as an ARC… thank you Krista!
I have nothing bad good things to say about this story! I absolutely LOVED it!!!
You can’t help but fall in love with Elle and Jasper, and their journey. The family and friends in their lives help make it a very enjoyable read. The characters are really so incredibly likeable, and all play an important part in the storyline.
And I can only imagine just how beautiful the scenery in those areas really is (never having been to the States). The descriptions sound beautiful enough on their own!
The story pulled on my heart-strings, made me shed some (well, maybe more than some) tears, and I laughed out loud! The writing kept me engaged the whole time, and there were some wonderfully poignant quotes and food-for-thought… like “believing in something is what gives it magic”. A real aaahhh (hand-on-heart) moment 😉
The journey of seeing the crabbiest, crankiest of killjoys (AKA hollow bunny with buttoned-up bullshit) to a man full of love and devotion was very entertaining and enjoyable!
I stayed up until bloody 4am in the morning to finish it, once I started… I just couldn’t put it down! I simply HAD to know what was going to happen next!
I highly-recommend the read, and look forward to reading even more of Krista’s work!
Loved loved loved this book. Elle is as strong and independent as they come. Jasper is closed off and so focused on his company he can’t see what he’s missing. The banter is this book is great! I absolutely love Elle. Jasper is smokin hot once he lets his guard down. To Elle and strong women everywhere….may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them. Thanks Krista Sandor for another amazing book.
This is a review from an ARC I received. I recently found Krista and have fallen in love with her writing style. The Bergen brothers in both this book and Man Fast makes you fall in love with this series, can’t wait for the 3rd book. Love that the characters have real struggles and although there is an HEA it’s not predictable how it gets there. Highly recommend this entire series and this author.
As stated in my review of the first book, this is a great series and book number two don’t leave you disappointed. The two characters are fire and ice or so it seems. They can’t stand each other. But it’s definitely hot between them. They embrace the idea of a man feast almost instantly and the more time they spend together the more they want. Their road towards happy ever after is both hilarious, sweet and a struggle. But isn’t everything worth having worth a fight? I strongly suspect I already know who will be the love interest of the third brother. I guess I will have to wait a little longer to be sure.
Krista you are a wonderful writer. I enjoyed this book from the first page to the last page. Jasper a hot CEO who is a workaholic. Then you have Elle who gets hired at Bergen Enterprises and Jasper is not happy about it. It’s so comical, I laughed so hard at these to butting heads constantly. What a man feast this book is when you have two who are forced to work together despite their feelings but then they decide since neither have had sex in years that what could one night hurt. What could one night of pure passion lead to with these two? An adventure full of love, happiness, hotheadedness, anger, romance and comedy at it’s best. 5 Stars +++. Thank you Krista.
She pushes him out of his comfort zone.
Eleanor “Elle” is a very successful writer, a travel writer with book deals and a movie. And money in the back, until she lost it all to her accountant/money manager. She is having a very bad day. She needs to take a new gig promoting Bergen Sports and resorts. And work with their grandson, Jasper. Who is her opposite.
She’s creative and imaginative.
Jasper Bergen is a highly regimented CEO with control issues. The oldest of the three brothers, he put his dreams on hold to run the family company and he thinks they don’t need Elle. News flash. Both Jasper and the company need Elle.
They embark on a Man Feast. But will Jasper man up when the stick turns positive?
Recommend for a feisty and well crafted enemies to lovers.
