Eryn Hope was in love with Weston Quaid. They came from two different worlds but their live was strong, or so Eryn thought. Weston skipped out on their wedding day with no explanation. She moved on … somewhat. Eryn opened her own business, a coffee shop that was successful, but her love life was not. Three years later West shows up to tell her that he owns the building her shop is located in and they must shut down for a period of time to make structural changes. Eryn is worried about her workers’ jobs as well as her debt. West makes her a deal, he will pay off her bills including her employees’ salaries if she becomes his mistress while they fix the building. Eryn is hesitant at first, but then finally gives in and goes with West. Now his plans begin.
This was another hit by Shayla Black. West never fell out of love with Eryn but he had to go back home and take care of the family business. Now he had a chance to try to win her back. Eryn soon finds out why West had to leave and soon realizes that she never fell out of love with him either. As the past tries to return to create a problem between Eryn and West, they work together to solve it.I enjoyed the chemistry between these two characters. This was a great second chance romance.
Misadventures with My Ex is the second book that the author has written for the Misadventures series. Like the rest of the books in this series, Misadventures with My Ex is a stand-alone story. It follows the story of Eryn Hope, the sister of Ella Hope from Misadventures of a Back-Up Bride, and Weston Quaid, the man who left Eryn at the altar. While it is a second chance love story it doesn’t necessarily follow the same formula that a lot of second chance romances do.
Eryn and Weston have an incredible chemistry that seems to be the one thing that Eryn can handle when he cannonballs back into her life. The love she had for him has morphed into a hurt that only someone who has loved deeply can feel. The question is can Weston ultimately prove to Eryn that the love she could feel is stronger than the hurt she does feel.
The story is a quick read and moves at a quick pace however it doesn’t seem rushed as the story plays out. The characters are well written and are fully developed. A light and fun read that packs in all the heat and feels.
4 stars
As usual with Shayla Black’s books, I loved Misadventures with My Ex! This is a fantastic second chance love story. Eryn Hope was sure she and Weston Quaid were meant to be, so when he left her at the altar, she was devastated. For three long years, she tries to convince herself all she misses is the sex; after all he’s the only man to every turn her body to jello. But when he unexpectedly show back up in her life, she’s fighting a losing battle to stay hardened against the only man she’s ever loved.
For West, walking away from Eryn was the hardest thing he’s ever done but with the vipers he calls family, he truly thought it was the only option. He always intended to make it right and to make Eryn his wife. Now three years have gone by, three years of agony for him and he’s ready to claim his bride. She won’t make it easy on him but he’s used to hard work and there’s never been a more worthy cause!
Great characters, I could clearly feel all the pain from both Eryn and West. There was lots of sexy heat and raging chemistry between our h and H and even some laughs; the opening sequence was too funny. Another winner of a misadventure!

Wonderful second chance romance that will have your toes curling and your heart melting for Weston Quaid. “After all, Weston Quaid is like a shark.”
Easy, fast paced novella part of the Misadventures series that was perfect to read on the weekend. You will find yourself not relinquishing this book for a moment.
Will Eryn Hope let Weston Quaid back into her life after the heartbreak and stunt he pulled all those years ago?
4 Stars for the mere fact of Eryn’s character. I had a hard time with her behavior and personality. I rolled my eyes on the majority of her actions, but with that said, with all Shayla novels you can never truly go wrong with one of her books, stories.
Misadventures with My Ex is the 18th or 21st book depending on Goodreads and Amazon but who cares what number this book is? It is still a book in the Misadventures Series. Shayla Black has written one other book in this series. Each of the books in the Misadventure series can be read as a standalone and they are not interconnected. They are each complete standalones.
Misadventures with My Ex is a second chance romance and is Eryn Hope and Weston Quaid’s story. Weston walked out on Eryn and his wedding day. Weston is now back after 3 years and he wants Eryn back. He just isn’t sure how to get her back.
Weston had Eryn and my jaw dropping once he brings out a contract that he wants Eryn to sign.
What happens after the contract is signed is let the magic begin! There was some hot and heavy lovin’ and I loved it!
Shayla Black is one of my all time favorite romance authors! Her stories are intense, sexy and passionate. Misadventures with My Ex was in the same class. Be ready for some fireworks! I have fallen in love with this second chance love story of a Billionaire business tycoon and a sweet sassy restaurant owner from the first page.
Weston Quaid abruptly left Eryn on the day of their marriage about three years back. And now he is back because Eryn’s cafe is in danger due to city renovation and he is the owner of the building. But he wants more. They have unresolved issues and mindblowing chemistry. Eryn is full of anger, hurt and regrets. She still loves West and it is not easy to accept West again. But West is determined to win her back. And he has a proposal or contract for Eryn. To save her business and to prove that they are not over. But they have so many obstacles to face. Eryn’s insecurity and vulnerability. West’s shrewd and plotting mother. West’s company trouble. Can they win these all?
I love both the lead characters! West is just so delicious and amazing both in and out of bedroom. He is sexy as hell, honest, protective, loyal, dedicated and caring. Eryn is a fabulous gorgeous woman. She is independent, sweet, sassy and loves with all her hurt. Their chemistry was like magic. It melts my heart. Shayla Black writes exceptionally moving sex scenes. Yes they are panty melting hot. But she put so much more there. The souls get connected over the bodily acts. You can actually feel the love flowing between them. And in you. And that’s what makes a great romance.
Misadventures with My Ex by Shayla Black is one of those swoony, sexy, larger than life, dreamy and epic love stories that reminds me the reason I read romance. It is magic. It is pure perfection.
Received ARC for Honest Review
Another great story from an incredible author. The characters are amazing and I loved them. They are relatable and I felt connected to them. The story is well written and came alive right before my eyes. Can’t wait to see where the author takes readers next!
Eryn Hope was left with a broken heart when her fiancee Weston left her at the altar. For the past three years she’s been stuck in a rut, unable to forget the man she once loved. Unable to stop thinking about how he’d once made her feel.
One night of trying to drink the pain away, results in her getting a visit from said fiancee.
Weston can’t believe he has Eryn within reach again. Three years ago he made a decision to leave her, one he didn’t necessarily want to make. Familial circumstances had forced him to leave the woman he loved, but three years later and he’s back. This time he’s not going to let her go.
Eryn is forced to strike a deal with Weston. Be his mistress. She agrees. This is the perfect opportunity to get over him, so she can finally move on. But what do you do when the man you’re supposed to be moving on from won’t let you do so?
Misadventures with My Ex was a predictable romance, but it was highly enjoyable. I really enjoyed the angst that came with their relationship, and how Shayla wrote the story.
4.5 stars.
Misadventures With My Ex is Shayla Black’s second chance romance in the Misadventures series. Weston Quaid fell to family pressure and left Eryn Hope at the altar. Weston’s decision comes out of the blue and leaves Eryn devastated. Three years after the devastating breakup, business brings Weston back in Eryn’s life. It doesn’t take long for all the old feelings and the hot chemistry between the two to reignite.
I love a good second chance romance, and Mrs. Black does a good job bringing this second chance romance to life. In true Shayla Black form, the writing is captivating, the characters are lovable and enchanting, the sex scenes are hot, hot, hot, and the conclusion is more than satisfying. The secondary characters span the range of “I love them a lot” to a couple that I love to hate. My only slightly negative criticism is the romance writers’ technique of having the heroine hurt because of not communicating.
All-in-all the story is very entertaining and recommended by this reader. Get Misadventures With My Ex as soon as you can. I enjoy every book I’ve read in this Misadventure series and looking forward to the next one from Shayla Black and the other contributing authors.
Eryn and West, yes please!!! Misadventures with My Ex was absolutely amazing. I truly love Shayla Black as an author and I haven’t been disappointed by any of her books. West and Eryn were once together, ready to walk down the aisle and call themselves husband and wife. That was until things went wrong and the wedding never took place.
This story focuses on their misadventure together and their journey. It is certainly one you will want to read about as it is super steamy and full of emotions. I have truly loved every Misadventures book in this amazing series. This one had me reading as fast as possible because I just needed to know what was going to happen next.
Another 5 Star Misadventure!!
This was a fun second chance romance story. Eryn was jilted 3 years ago by Weston with no explanation so it was a shock to her, even in her drunken state, when Weston shows up at her apartment on what would have been their 3rd anniversary. Weston left Eryn 3 years ago but he never forgot her and never stopped loving her. He comes to see Eryn due to business but once he sees her, he knows he wants a second chance.
Eryn and Weston’s chemistry is off the charts but Eryn still doesn’t trust Weston with her heart since he shattered it once before. When Weston starts making headway with Eryn, Weston’s past comes back and could destroy their fragile relationship. It is up to Eryn and Weston to figure what is important in life and if they can trust each other. This is a quick and sexy read! I really enjoyed it!
Angst, some humor, and all the heat one comes to love with Shayla Blacks books. A great addition to the Misadventure series that everyone must read!
3 years after leaving Eryn on their wedding day West is back with horrible news and a big favor to ask. Will Eryn forgive him? Grab this book now to find out. It has a little bit of everything…heat, laughter and happily ever after. Definitely recommend this book!
By far, my FAVORITE in the “Misadventures by” series. This book will pull you in from page 1.
West broke Eryn heart by breaking up with her on the day they were to be married!! You feel Eryn’s pain when she relieves that day. You never expect West to show up on the anniversary of her heart break. But things are not always as they seem. West never stopped loving Eryn and had a good reason for doing what he did. Will Eryn give him the chance to talk, can they be friends or can he actually have what his heart has wanted for the past 3 years.
An amazing story by Shayla Black and a definite MUST read!!
Second Chances
I was looking forward to reading this Misadventure by Shayla Black. Eryn Hope has lost all faith in ever having her HEA. The love of her life or so she thought, jilted her at the alter. She has floundered in her relationships since Weston Quaid. He is ahard act to follow. The man was amazing in bed and knew how to play her like a fiddle. She gave him her heart and love and he kicked it to the curb by making a business choice over their love for each other.
Weston’s one and biggest regret was that he chose his family obligations that were beyond his control over the love of his life. The aftermath was pure devastation and not one that Weston could ever hope to repair. Now three years later his mission is totry and win Eryn back. Their passion never left for each other, but winning back her love was going to take a miracle. Reading about their journey back to each other was a joy to experience.
Misadventures with My Ex by Shayla Black is book 18 in the Misadventures Series. This is Eryn Hope and Weston Quaid’s story. Note, this is a standalone and can be read on its own.

The novella starts as she is celebrating what would have been her married 3 year anniversary when the man who walked away from her comes walking right back into her life but she literally too wasted to realize it.
Weston is back and ready go reclaim the love of his life but something tells him that isn’t going to be so easy. Business brought Weston back into Eryn’s life and he plans never to leave. Life got in the way of him coming back for her sooner but here he is now and wow, the chemistry and connection between them is sensational. The emotions and feels leapt from the pages and just were so good that it kept me hooked from the beginning and all the way to the end. Eryn and Weston’s 2nd chance at love was delicious and sweet. The banter, the feels, romance, drama, angst, twists, passion, and the love between them was a phenomenal addition to the Misadventures series.
My Rating: 4.7 stars ******
Loved this heart string pulling, emotionally engaging and thrilling second chance with a few twists…… was a great read from beginning to end. This is yet another thrilling misadventure that had me page turning all night long missing lots of much needed sleep, but so worth it!
Love doesn’t always get a second chance but it does with Eryn and Weston. Wes realizes that he still loves her. Only problem is that Wes walked out on their wedding day and Eryn can’t forgive him. Or can she??
Wes wants Eryn back and he’s willing to do what he has to in order to get her back. The chemistry between these two is off the charts. And Wes is willing to use any means necessary to get her back. True love always finds a way.
West and Eryn are THE SECOND CHANCE couple of the year. Misadventures with My Ex has you glued to the story! You feel Eryn’s heartbreak. You feel the tension when West comes back. You also feel the passion that these two have.
The drama unfolds and you cannot help but read this book in one setting. It was too good to let go!
If you love second chance romance then this is the book for you! Shayla really brings out all the feels with this one.
Can Eryn ever forgive Weston for what he has done to her? Can she forgive him for leaving her shattered? Will her body betray her?
I will admit I read this book in one sitting. I was hooked from the first chapter. This was a fun, angsty, and amazing love story.
Weston has been living with regret for years. Once Weston reunites with Eryn everything is as it should be.. The passion, sparks, love all seems to be falling into place. Can they repair the damage that has been done? Can Eryn forgive him?
Trust me you want to read this book. It is amazing.
