EliahnGetting pregnant after a booze cruise hookup was not what any parent wanted to hear, so I picked up my entire life and moved to Paris to start over. Six years later, I was ready to go home. I was a single mom and the only thing I knew about my son’s dad was his name—Luca. I didn’t need to know anything else.The universe had other ideas because on our second day back home, the man came … second day back home, the man came crashing back into my life.
Luca
Attending a welcome back party for my boss’s daughter wasn’t how I wanted to spend my Sunday. But walking in and seeing my hookup from a cruise six years ago knocks me on my ass.
It was a weekend of fun and now I’m seeing a pair of eyes, identical to mine, staring right at me. The boy standing next to her is my son.
Now we’re living next door to each other and attempting to co-parent something that would be easy to do if the pull that brought us together wasn’t still there making things more complicated.
For six years she haunted my dreams, now she’s haunting my every waking moment.
I let her get away once, now I want to make her mine.
This time, permanently.
Only one thing left to do. I have to tempt the hookup.

Natash Madison books you are always in for a treat. And this one was no different.
After hooking up on a booze cruise Eli and Luca decided no last names, just the week of fun, sex and hotness. But when the sexy times were finished, Luca realized that he found his soulmate, unfortunately he didn’t know her last name and she was gone.
Unbeknown to him he left a part of himself behind. Seven years later, he is an attorney and his life is good, except he doesn’t date, its work, family and work.
Until his boss invites him to a welcome home party for his daughter and… Surprise..
This book had no drama, lots of hotness, lots of laughter, lots of overloading on cuteness (little Aiden) and lots of pure sweet no drama romance. Loved it!
Eli and Luca were downright funny!!!! They met on a cruise and hooked up. Fast forward 7 years and they unexpectedly run into each other and he finds out he’s a dad. But Luca took it like a champ. Eli also did bit they both hid their attraction but not for long. Aiden was adorable and Luca’s friends were OMG funny as ever!!! They were sooooo entertaining and said the darnest things. Great story, great ending and lots of funny moments and lots of beautiful ones.
OMG I loved it!! Normally I am into books with angst but sometimes it is really nice to read a slow and sweet romance and Tempt The Hookup did just that! I swooned so many times that I wanted to steal Luca for myself!! Do guys like him really exist??
What happens on a cruise, stays on a cruise…except when you get pregnant! Elihan agreed that her and Luca would keep their time together exclusive to the boat, but when she discovered she was pregnant, she regretted that decision.
After years of raising her son alone, she finds herself face to face with Luca. Never in a million years did she think she would see him again. Will Luca accept their son? Will Elihan and Luca be able to pick up where they left off or has too much time passed?
I just loved how much Luca stepped up. I kept waiting for him to mess up, but he never did. It made my heart happy for him to jump into a role he knew nothing about! Tempt The Hookup kept a permanent smile on my face and my heart extremely happy!
Once again Natasha Madison has hit out of the park! Loved this latest installment to Tempt Series. Eliahn and Luca were just so great together and Aiden stole the entire book! Luca/Eliahn met on a booze cruise and set some ground rules of no names, etc. Little did they know seven years later things they would meet again… albeit with a super sweet surprise!
Way to go Natasha! Enjoy this fun, fast-paced read!! Oh and, yes…watch out for the bugs… lol
A light, fluffy, funny read. Loved the little snippets of past characters and absolutely adored Aiden.
Its no secret I am a huge fan of Natasha’s. I think its impossible for her to write a book that I won’t love and devour in an evening.
I loved her main characters in this one Luca and Eli. The connection between them was so hot and instant, completely undeniable even with the bomb dropped between them in the cute package of six year old Aiden.
They met seven year previous with an instant connection on a booze cruise, a four day fling with no last names and promises. They just never expected to come away with an extra bonus.
I absolutely loved how Luca embraced the fact he was a father with no fight, no strop just took it on full pelt and with the desire to win over the woman that he has been pinning for the last seven years.
As much as I loved Luca and the way he made me swoon, the real person to steal my heart was Aiden. He had me in stitches with the things he said and the uncanny way he managed to cock block his parents at every opportunity! loved the mosquito’s excuse.
If you want a light hearted, sweet romance then this is the one for you. Another great read from Natasha
I absolutely loved Eliahn and Luca’s story. The chemistry between the two of them was on fire. Add in their son Aiden who was just the cutest, adorable kid ever and it just made this story that much more. I laughed so much I had tears streaming down my face and oh how Luca made me swoon!
Natasha Madison did it again. It doesn’t matter how many books she writes, I always seem to devour every single one when I get it and Tempt The Hook-Up was no different.
4.5 Hilarious Heartwarming Stars
I received an advanced copy of this book and am choosing to review it. If you’re looking for a book to be cozy and relax this would be perfect read. This story is sweet, funny with steamy scenes. The kid is adorable and getting the H and h in embarrassing situation. There’s not drama just a little bit of miss communication. With great word build and great relationship between friends and family.
What didn’t I love about this book?! There was so much to adore about Luca, Eli, and Aiden. I don’t want to give too much away, but I appreciated that there wasn’t a whole lot of unnecessary drama and angst thrown into their story. My favorite thing would have to be Luca’s relationship with Aiden, and it was one that had a whole lot of ease to it, with Luca taking to fatherhood like a duck to water and Aiden embracing this missing piece of his life without question. I really liked Luca and Eli as individuals and as a couple, and it was obvious why they clicked seven years prior to them seeing each other again. Luca’s friends were definitely comic relief, and can I just say that their antics made me appreciate the friends that I have and how they would never do what these guys did to Luca? Well, my friends would never dare it because I’d get back at them times ten. This was a really fun read, one that was about finding love unexpectedly and how fate allows us to find it again and how becoming a family can be as easy or as difficult as we choose to make it. Tempt the Hookup gets five stars, and this can be read as a standalone.
Natasha Madison Wow Wow Wow this Book is just so Beautifully written. It goes beyond all my expectations but then again Natasha always does.
Tempt The Hook Up is such a sweet, fluffy story. It has all the Swoon and Emotions that we come to love by Natasha.
This book is about one time sex that changes your life.
Eli is given the surprise of her life. She handles it so so well and makes such an amazing life for herself.
Luca stole the fcking show for me. He is alllllll that I love in an Alpha Hero. He is such an amazing Man.
Fast forward 7 years ans Luca gets and awesome Surprise when he see Eli
When finds out things he never hesitated to step up or denies anything.
His Awesomeness knows no Bounds. He ans Aiden stole the show. I loved them and this story so so much.
Take a bow Natasha Madison you did it yet again..
Enjoy!!!
This was my favorite of the Tempt Series!!! I love a single parent/secret kid book. This one was wonderful and had a little bit of a twist. Eli, Aiden and Luca all stole my heart right from the beginning.
I really enjoyed the way the author wrote this story. It flowed well, and the flashbacks were perfect. The characters were perfect and who could resist a cute kid?!
This book had it all, great characters, a great story, not much angst, laugh out loud moments, a super cute kid, a hot Dad and mosquito bites. Read the book and you will know what I mean by mosquito bites. Ha-ha This book was just a joy to read and it made me want to go back and reread the others since if gave us glimpses of them. I hope the author writes more in this series because it quickly has become one of my favorites.
This story was so good!!! Eli and Luca were amazing together. I loved that there was very little drama between the two of them in the circumstances, and how welcoming their families were. I enjoyed catching up with some of my favorite previous characters of Natasha’s, and seeing where they are now.
An amazing must read that I would HIGHLY recommend!!
As always with Natasha’s books, I was hooked(up) from page one, she weaves a spell on me with her words, that has me laughing, crying and swooning until the very end.
I absolutely adore all of Natasha’s books, everything she writes is a winner in my eyes, she could write a shopping list and I would be mesmerised, but one thing she excels at, is romcom. I read book one in this series at a tough time in my life, when no book interested me, but that one got through, and I’m so glad it did, I laughed so much (I hadn’t laughed in 6 months) that my ribs hurt from it, so this series will always have a special place in my heart, so I was thrilled when she announced she was adding to the series with Luca and Eliahn’s love story.
Tempt the Hookup is everything I hoped it would be and so much more. Luca and Eliahn meet on a booze cruise with friends, and spend the majority of their time below deck, before parting ways without exchanging any personal information except first names. Little did they know though, Eliahn was left with a permanent reminder of their encounter 9 months later.
After spending the last 6 years in France, Eliahn and her son Aiden return tot he US, only for her parents to throw a welcome home party, comprising of all his staff members, one of whom is familiar to her.
Luca has spent the past 6 years searching for the woman he fell in love with on a booze cruise, and hasn’t been able to get her out of his mind since. After attending his bosses party, he is shocked to see the woman of his dreams, but not as shocked as he is to see the young boy at her side.
Eliahn is slow to fall for Luca again, her priority is her son and his relationship with his father, but Luca has been all in for the past 6 years and isn’t keen to let her get away again, especially with the added bonus of his son, he concocts a plan to Tempt The Hookup.
With the help of friends and family, miscommunications galore, comical visits to the hospital and beauty salon, and the humorous outbursts of an innocent child, this hilarious story comes to it’s happily ever after conclusion.
I fell in love with everyone in this story, but most especially Luca, who will go down as one of my top 5 NM heroes for his actions during their time apart, he is truly a droolworthy book boyfriend with his mini-me Aiden.
Another 5 star story, another one I can’t recommend enough. Everyone needs a Luca in their lives.
I LOVED THIS BOOK SO MUCH, I don’t really like reading romcom books but I do read anything and everything that Natasha writes. I love her books so much, but this one was AMAZING. I was laughing and swooning so much I was even crying. Luca was EVERYTHING, he was so sweet, alpha, and protective. I loved how he took charge and never took no for an answer.
This book was about two people who met, had an amazing weekend together, and then met up again years later. I just loved how this book was written, yes it was fast paced but it felt like you were living everything with them. This book was EPIC, get ready to fall in love with Luca and Eliahn, these two are FIRE!!!
Secret baby check Alpha hotness check Funny kid check. Natasha Madison is a automatic read for me. I don’t even have to read the blurb to know that I’m going to read and throughly enjoy her story. Eliahn and Luca met years ago on a singles cruise. They only exchanged first names while tearing up the sheets. They didn’t realize that they also had created a momento of the trip. This book had lots of laughs, fun side characters, plenty of hot bedroom scenes and one silly fun child thrown in. Be prepared for laughter, tears, and lots of panty melting times while reading this book. If you are looking for a second chance secret baby book with laughter and lightness then this one is for you. I can’t wait to see what Natasha Madison writes next
You must read this one! I could hardly put it down. I was hooked right from the beginning and didn’t come up fr air until I was finished. It caused a book hangover because I would tell myself just a little bit more until there wasn’t anymore. I loved Eli and Luca. They have a true epic love story. Little Aiden is too adorable for words and boy does he embarrass his parents often with the things he says. I LOVED the humor in this one.I was laughing throughout the book especially when Luca is with his friends. Hilarity ensues with those guys. Eli and Luca have great chemistry and as a reader you can feel the connection between them roll off the pages. The epilogue was so perfect. It delivered on the feels and it had me laughing through the end. It was so perfect! I can’t recommend this one enough!
I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book (given by author)…
This was such a sweet book. I absolutely adored Lucas and Eliahn especially how the meet and then how they meet again. Aiden was so cute and such a little blocker for his parents 😉 Our poor couple had some bad timing during their fun adult time especially with unexpected visitors.
It was so interesting how everything came back full circle and their connection was still there and perhaps even stronger. I would love to know more about Lucas’ friends especially the love story of Nick and Mona. As always I love seeing our past faves and of course Noah was his usual troublemaking self.
There is no major conflict for our couple to overcome and it was pretty perfect throughout the book. I have to say Leonard knows how to throw a great party and Lucas’ mom desserts sounded so delicious.
This book was amazing! If you’re looking for a feel good laugh out loud book this is for you. I don’t think Luka could be any more perfect if he tried. Eli and Luka will crack you up with their banter and the love they share. Aiden is just the icing on the cake!
Laugh out loud funny, swoon worthy and sexy…what more could you ask for?!
Seven years after a booze cruise hookup, surprises abound for both Luca and Eliahn when fate decides to put them in each other’s lives again.
Learning to co-parent, being neighbours, and realizing that neither had never gotten over the other after seven long years all make for an incredibly entertaining and sweet romance that’s fun to read!
I LOVED heading back to this world. I absolutely could not put this book down. It was funny and sweet, and so full of heart!
