Top three reasons why sleeping with the enemy is a bad idea…1. She’s my fiercest rival.2. She’s also my fiery ex.3. We’re going up against each other in a stiff competition to win the hottest new client on the market.And yet, I’d like to be up against the wall in a stiff competition to get her to call out my name.Time to double down on my resistance to her tough-as-nails, take-no-prisoners, … tough-as-nails, take-no-prisoners, sexy-as-sin attitude. The same attitude I find irresistible.
That’s a big problem, because in this race to nab the client, I run into Haven in the hotel, on the beach, in the guest quarters late at night.
Hate s-e-x would be a terrible idea.
Except, it’s the complete opposite, and now we can’t keep our hands off each other.
Trouble is, I’m not so sure it’s hate I’m feeling anymore.
And that’s the biggest reason sleeping with the enemy you’re falling for is a bad idea — my job literally depends on never letting her into my heart.

I love a love/hate kinda relationship and Overnight Service delivered. Josh and Haven have such tension and I loved it! They have such a pull and I loved watching them try to deny what was right in front of them. They are so cute together and I loved seeing them blossom. Another great Lauren Blakely read!
A battle of the sexes spell the end for more than their careers. Haven and Josh are delicious. Overnight Service is signature Blakely. Humorous, tempting and all in good fun. This couple break all the rules with their fiery chemistry and sassy interactions. Overnight Service hits ever sensor when it comes to a great read. I can tell Haven and Josh are going to be repeat offenders on my re-read list.
Work competitors and former lovers Josh and Haven are coming against one another again and when placed in the same confined space repeatedly, start questioning if they can stay away from each other.
Every time I think Lauren Blakely has given the readers her best book boyfriend, I fall in love with the new one and this was the case with Josh. I couldn’t get over the things he does for the woman he loves.
As one should expect from Ms. Blakely, she has penned another fast paced, easy to read enemies to lovers’ story that, as usual, hits the mark. Sexy, romantic and filled with easy banter and beloved secondary characters, Josh and Haven’s romance is more than just Overnight Service.
I absolutely enjoyed reading Overnight Service by Lauren Blakely. A second chance romance full of steamy chemistry and witty banter. Josh and Haven are business rivals with history and can’t seem to deny the sexual tension between them! They should stay away from each other, right? Haven was feisty and strong. Josh is charming and sexy. And they are both very, very competitive and stubborn! Now they are constantly going after the same clients.
I loved the chemistry and interactions between Josh and Haven. Their back and forth both in business and in the bedroom had me turning the pages as quickly as I could. Another great read from Lauren Blakely that was such a fun read that left me smiling.
Read and reviewed for Reviews From the Heart.
Happy reading!
This book delivered humor, heart and heat! 5 stars
I laughed out loud on the first page, and that is what I love about a Lauren Blakely rom-com. I will laugh, I will swoon and smile and it will get steamy. She knows how to perfectly blend humor, heart and heat, and this book is no exception. Haven and Josh is a second chance and enemies to lovers story all rolled into one. Josh and Haven were fire together, and I couldn’t read fast enough to see how their story would unfold. I love the way Lauren Blakely writes the male POV, and Josh was witty, smart and competitive. We received snippets of Haven’s POV, and she is just as competitive, smart and witty as Josh with fierceness thrown in. I highly recommend this book if you love a fast-paced rom-com that takes you to another world like I do!

I loved this new enemies-to-lovers rom-com! Josh and Haven were colleagues who had a brief and very passionate affair. After a misunderstanding, Haven leaves heartbroken to start her own business. After a year of competing from afar, Josh & Haven reconnect only to challenge each other to a competition. Neither wants to lose and the way they are constantly put in close proximity makes the sparks that once were, fire up hotter than ever. Their antagonistic banter is their foreplay and their chemistry turns explosive. But Haven is still hurt and she knows she needs to be strong and not fall into old patterns to protect her heart and her reputation. I love how honorable Josh was, and so willing to be the first to open up and try to reconcile, it is so refreshing and swoony. Haven is smart and perceptive, I liked how she knew how to capitalize on her strengths with dignity. I really enjoyed this sweet and steamy, second chance romance along with all the fun, witty banter, authentic characters and a tempting tale that captured my heart.
I loved everything about this book. OVERNIGHT SERVICE is Book #4 in the Always Satisfied Series. It follows ex co-workers, ex lovers and business rivals Josh and Haven, whose chemistry is FIRE from the very beginning. Their constant banter and competitive nature only served to ignite their chemistry. Josh and Haven are two very talented, independent, hard-working individuals in the Sports Agent field. Both with different, but strong backgrounds, they have a lot to offer and are not afraid of competition.
I loved Josh and Haley equally for two very different reasons. Josh, although strong, intimidating and demanding, had such a soft spot. By the way he presented himself and treated Haven (even while they were “hating” each other) it was obvious that he held women with the highest respect. We got to see his internal struggle with his conscious at different times throughout the story. Haven, on the other hand, was admirable. She was the definition of “girl-power.” Working in a male dominant field, she knew at times the odds were against her. She wasn’t ignorant to the fact that she was going to deal with womanizing jerks who wouldn’t hold her in the same regard as they would a male sports agent. This, however, didn’t stop her. She was not afraid to go out there because she was confident and she knew she was one of the best out there. At the same time, this caused her to create a hard exterior because she had to hold herself up differently. She had to be serious to be taken serious. Josh and Haven were both strong characters; Josh for making choices based on his morality and Haven, for not being afraid in pursuing a career in which she some men did not always see her as an “equal.” This book was hot with some really fun sexy times.
Lauren Blakely is seriously one of the most talented writers of all times. Not only does she create these extremely relatable characters, she also create these wonderful stories where her characters from her many series and standalone novels intertwine in each other’s lives and stories. I absolutely love this about her and her books. Sometimes, as I reader who gets totally consumed in the lives of these characters, I always want to know more after their HEA. That’s exactly what Lauren gives us with each book; a little more. It truly makes me feel as if I watching a favorite series on Netflix and I get to see what my fave heroes and heroines are doing in the next episode.

Good read and I really loved the enemies to lovers part. She was feisty and fierce. Aka snow queen. And Josh was actually pretty sweet. He did what he thought what was best. Miss communication and a whole lot of competition finally brings these guys together. I loved the end result and how everyone came together.
I LOVED this story. It was entertaining, it was steamy and it was full of great banter. A fantastic enemies to lovers romance.
Josh is a sports agent, and his rival Haven is also his ex flame. These two did not end on the best of terms, they poach each other’s clients. They can’t stand to be near each other, until they finally decide to clear the air. However, there is a fine line between hate and want. What happens when that line begins to blur?
Josh, how can you not love him? He gave things up in the name of love when it came to his career. He is a romantic at heart, but also knows how to bring the steam. Haven is confident, she is strong and can hold her own in a male dominated field. She deserves everything she has in life because she had to work hard to get it. Josh and Haven had so much chemistry. When they finally gave into it again sparks fly. I loved their banter, too. It was hilarious at times and I loved that they kept pushing each other’s buttons.
A MUST READ and I can’t wait for the next one in this series!
Lauren Blakely rom-coms are amazing!! I have loved every book I’ve ever read by her! Overnight Service was no different! Josh and Haven’s story is everything for me! Sweet, funny, sexy and so much love! Another FIVE STAR read from LB!
Overnight Service by Lauren Blakely
This book was so damn good, I could just scream! We have Josh, a sports agent with a background in law and Haven, a sports agent with Olympic medals in her arsenal! The two formerly worked together and had a brief but deep affair until the point that Josh recuses himself when it comes to recommending Haven for a promotion. This costs Haven more than a promotion and it costs them both their love affair. Now that they’re fierce competitors vying for the same client in an unusual way, Josh and Haven finally have a chance to talk things through and see if they can allow themselves a second-chance at love.
These two were soooo much fun from the get-go. The antagonism and witty barbs (and frankly, the outright smartassery) led to such an enjoyable few hours. This book was steamy and sexy and the chemistry between John and Haven was insane! I adored these two and their ‘supporting cast’ who are simply begging for stories and I’m ever so thankful that I won’t have to wait too long for Special Delivery!

Overnight Service was a great enemies-to-lovers story. Josh and Haven were fantastic characters. I enjoyed their banter filled with hate but also like. The tension was intense and it was just a matter of time before it all came to a head. And when it did, it was explosive. They have history-both professionally and personally. Reading how they would navigate through all of that was intriguing. Josh and Haven had a great dynamic-strong chemistry, fun banter, and likeable personalities. One of the things that I love about Lauren’s books are the side characters that we get to meet or past characters that we have already been introduced. I love the interconnected world of her books. Overall this was a passionate and fun read. I can’t wait for the next book in the series-Special Delivery. Love Lauren and her stories!
You just can’t go wrong reading anything by Lauren Blakely when looking for a rom/com with all the feels. Every book I read by this fabulous author, just gets better and better. Overnight Service is the latest in her new series of standalones.
This time, we have two rival sports agents who just happen to be at odds with one another. Haven Deliah and Josh Summers have been sorta friends and for a short time, lovers, but now they just think it’s hate that’s fueling their sizzling chemistry and snarky banter, but the truth is, the fine line has been drawn and crossed.
Their feelings for one another are obvious to everyone… except themselves. But when fate takes a hand in their fiery interactions and sets the course. Will she steer them straight or leave them to sink or swim?
Overnight Service had so many of my favorite tropes! There’s the delicious Enemies to Lovers and the sweet Second Chance, and even some forced proximity and workplace romance thrown in for good measure. You really can’t go wrong with a Lauren Blakely romcom!
I loved Haven and Josh and how intelligent, driven, and passionate they were in their jobs and in their lives. They had fantastic chemistry and the sparks really fly with these two. I loved watching them go head to head and each giving as good as they got. Haven is a force to be reckoned with and is definitely one of my favorite Blakely heroines. One of my favorite things about Overnight Service is that there is no other man or woman drama at all. Josh and Haven only have eyes for each other and even though this is a second chance romance, I appreciated that the separation wasn’t filled with meaningless hookups for either of them. I did feel that the conflict and resolution was a little too convenient/overly sweet, but the epilogue was perfect for them.
Blakely always treats her fans to lots of crossovers and easter eggs, and I loved the little nods and mentions of previous characters/businesses. A little family tree/character map would definitely come in handy though! Blakely is also the best at setting the stage for future books and I’m very excited to get a little time with Vaughn and Josh’s sister, Quinn, in Special Delivery. A book for Josh’s other sister, Amy, is also on the horizon and is called Asking For a Friend. Overall, this was a really sexy and entertaining read.

So this one was a hilarious enemies to lovers story….or lovers to enemies back to lovers? This book by Lauren Blakely was full of laughs as Josh and Haven are constantly trying to one up each other as they fight to be the best sports agents around. Great characters that you can’t help but like with a quick moving story. So good!
I have said it once and I will say it again if you are looking for a rom-com book with all the feels look no further than Lauren Blakely.
We meet Josh Summers & Haven Delilah two rival sports agents but also two people who can’t help the chemistry that goes beyond everything else.
Always going after a lot of the same clients and the bickering banter that is off the charts you can’t help see what really is going on is the string that keeps them tangled to one another. There is that saying if you can’t beat them join them and that is what Josh & Haven have to realize, and then just maybe they can a find a happy ever after not only in business but also in love.

Overnight Service is the fourth book in Lauren Blakely’s Always Satisfied series, but if you haven’t read the other books in the series, you can read this one as a standalone and not have missed anything.
Josh and Haven are both sports agents and to say they are competitive is an understatement. They are bitter rivals when it comes to work, but the attraction between the two of them is absolutely off the charts. So much so they had a short fling over a year ago, but it ended before it really began.
Now the two are competing for the same clients and the more time they spend around one another, it’s clear the attraction is still there, yet they have to figure out how to work with one another without killing each other as they fight that attraction. After a night of the hottest sex either of them has experienced, things change between them. Feelings are beginning to really take root and there are questions about what in life is most important. What will happen if these two give into their feelings and see what might be between them?
Just like any other Lauren Blakely book, this is full of great banter, hot sexy times, a strong heroine and a swoonworthy hero. I really liked Haven and Josh as individuals and as a couple. I have to say I’m really looking forward to Special Delivery, the next book in this series!
If you’re a fan of the enemies-to-lovers trope Overnight Service is not to be missed! I loved the fiery jabs that were laced with so much chemistry I just knew they were going to, um, “work” it out right then and there. With appearances by some past LB faves and glimpse into what’s next I’m once again a happy reader.
Lauren Blakely has done it once again in Overnight Service. Who doesn’t love a second chance romance, and throw in former lovers and rivals, it’s like a trifecta of wonderment.
Josh and Haven have some of the best chemistry in two book characters that I can ever remember, they are so fiercely independent but when they are together, watch out it could set your kindle on fire. Their story is fun, sexy and sass filled, their banter in the beginning was hilarious with just the right amount of humor. This is an epic read you won’t be disappointed!
second chance romance and an enemies to lover all in one. Haven and Josh are business rivals, that have so much sexual chemistry it flows from the pages. They are all about the hate sex until it’s not hate sex anymore or was it ever? You will cheer for these two from the start. Another grand slam home run for Lauren Blakely
