Twenty-eight year old Charlotte (Charlie) Rockwell is sitting back in the car that is taking her to the funeral of her 42-year old wealthy husband, Geoffrey, who died in a tragic car accident when the car stops, and picks up an unknown passenger—Geoffrey’s eighteen-year old son, Luke, whom she is unaware of. There is an immediate sexual attraction and on the way home, there is a very hot, very heavy make-out session. A few days later they meet to read Geoffrey’s will and Luke throws a tantrum when he discovers that everything else is left to Charlie while he only gets five million dollars and a house. After he cools down, he calls Charlie and is willing to work with her. As they work through this, a relationship develops quickly changing from one of lust to love.
But there are secrets in Charlie’s life, things about Geoffrey that his son does not know. Charlie too has her own personal secret and when Luke learns of this, he tells her to get out of his house and his life.
I am not a lover of age-gap romances when the woman is the oldest. Don’t know why—it really is no different than the man being the older, but the first line of this book caught me and spurned me forward. “Rummaging through the excessive amount of underwear I have spread out on my bed, I look for my lucky thong.” I was hooked. I wanted to know why she needed that lucky thong.
I liked this book. It had a good story line that moved quickly with two main characters each having their own personal issues to deal with. The sex scenes were very descriptive and played very well into the plot of the book.
I am familiar and a follower of one of these writers but after reading this, I will make it a point to get to know the other one too.
Also, in the end, that thong did turn out to be lucky!
This is my first read by Remy Blake. And, I cannot believe it took me this long to read the free download on my kindle!

But, they come together in an explosive way.
At first Lucas comes off as an angry boy, but as more backstory is revealed You realize he has been trying to mold himself in his father’s image. He also does not know the extent of his father’s secrets.
Easy, hot read. I will be back for more
This was a quick and delicious, steamy read!
I love age gap romances and this one definitely satisfied. I devoured this insta-lust/love story in a couple of hours.
This was my first read by this writing duo and I look forward to more!
I definitely need more Remy Blake in my life.
Oh, the taboo… Love it.
The sexual tension is everything and Charlie and Lucas are hotness goals.
I would’ve love for this story to be longer.
This book was an interesting read. I always like a good taboo read and this was one of them. This is the first time I’ve read an older female/younger male book but it adds some kick to it when the female is the step mother to the younger male.
Tempt is a hotttt book.
Charlotte is getting ready for her husbands funeral and she can’t wait to get rid of the Rockwell name and no longer have to deal with that lifestyle. She then meets someone she never knew about… Lucas. Lucas is her deceased husbands son. Lucas is younger but oh so hot and definitely into Charlotte. From the moment they meet the heat is on!!
This story did not lack any hot, steamy parts at all.
I think the only down side to me was that the book was just so fast. I felt there could have been more to it. Otherwise I loved the story & the characters.
Despite their relationship and age gap, Lucas and Charlotte are drawn to each other in ways they’ve never felt before with anyone else. Will they be able to overcome all the obstacles that stand in their way?
The amazing writing duo Marley Valentine & Jacob Chance create this naughty taboo read of lust and want. Forbidden love never felt so good for Lucas and Charlie. Looking forward to reading more from this duo.
This was like a wham, bam, thank you ma’am kind of book! Short, sweet, sinful, sexy and the story-line gets heated from the first page! This story is told by dual POV (which is my favorite way to read a story)
Lucas is 18 and Charlotte is 28 and Charlotte is Luca’s stepmother!! Yes, you read that correctly! Temptation is at an all time high for both of these characters. Their chemistry is hot, the sex scorching – but can they both survive this forbidden romance? Does age really make a difference? Read this for yourself and find out!
The only issue I had a problem with, believed that an 18 year old (and a virgin) was that good in bed. Yes, I know that the story is fiction, just still hard to believe.
A co-written debut novel for a male and female authors. I enjoy this book about the taboo relationship of a widow and the stepson she didn’t know she had. It seems her husband was more secretive than she thought. Charlotte and Lucas hit it off from the minute they meet, although she was 28 and he was only 18. They both tried to fight their feelings but it was like holding back the tide. I thought Lucas seemed older than 18, perhaps due to being left to his own devices so often he was mature for his age?
She’s his stepmother and he’s the stepson she never knew she had. The attraction is immediate. Lucas Rockwell may be 10 years Charlotte’s junior but he is all man and like a moth to a flame, Charlotte is drawn to him. If you are looking for a sexy taboo read with lots of steam then this one delivers.
excellent book…………..I love these authors!
Lusting after the “wrong” person
Woah While Tempt is not my first Remy Blake book (I loved Clipped and Timber), I was a little stunned at the salaciousness of this story. A widow of an extremely wealthy man, Charlotte meets her now deceased husband’s son – her step-son Lucas she was totally unaware of – on the way to the funeral. And the chemistry between the two of them is undeniable. But with a 10 year age gap and the nature of how their ties to one another look, these two are forced to fight what is clearly an extremely powerful attraction.
The magnificent Remy Blake writing duo (keeping in mind this was their DEBUT novel together) manage to make this story more then just taboo erotica – which of course it is, but Tempt is about more than that… a love that comes when you least expect it, a connection that is forged despite the secrets that are held, a willingness to fight for what they want in the face of society’s view of what might be considered a “normal” relationship. And it wouldn’t be a Remy Blake novel without some incredibly hot, steamy and tantalising sex scenes – and Tempt delivers this in spades.
This is one talented writing duo that I’m looking forward to reading more from. Their stories are definitely one of my faves to read.

5 flaming stars! This is a debut from Remy Blake and we’re not disappointed at any point. The fact that Charlie is 10 years older then Lucas doesn’t make any difference whatsoever the chemistry between these two is on fire every single second. The way these two find each other is not under normal circumstances but you don’t decide who you’re attracted to right?. The story started up great and just hotter and sexier as you get further along. It’s a quick read and you’re not going to want to put it down. Can’t wait to read more from this author. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.
