A sexy standalone romance from #1 NYT Bestseller Lauren Blakely! That inked bad boy who’s been flirting hard with me since he rode into town? Turns out he’s my new housemate, which is one heck of a problem since our chemistry is so hot it should be illegal. I have a fantastic family, great best friends, a job I love…and now I’m up for a promotion to police sergeant. I need total focus–not a … promotion to police sergeant. I need total focus–not a flirty, dirty, irresistible, tattooed hottie riding into my town on his motorcycle. Can I arrest him for being too good-looking? When he kisses me senseless in the back of a waffle truck, it’s criminal, the things he makes me think about hot syrup and melted butter. One order of hot, fluffy hookup to go, please. But the next time I see him, it’s not for our date with benefits. He’s the guy who just rented the room above my garage. I need the rent to pay my bills, not a man like Derek, who I soon discover to be strong, caring, generous, good with kids, and kind to puppies… If I’m not careful, he’ll be moving into my heart as well as my house.
***
A no-strings-attached fling with the fiery redhead who revs my engine? Why, yes, that does sound like a delicious perk of my new job in this new town, thank you very much. I’m coming off a bad relationship, and I have zero interest in anything serious. I’ve got all the serious I need helping my sister take care of her three little kids while her husband is deployed. Except, surprise! Perri isn’t just my future fling. Turns out she’s my sexy, sassy landlord. A lease definitely counts as “strings attached,” and as much as I’d like to get tangled in her sheets, I can’t let myself get tangled up in a relationship. But as soon as we put the cuffs on our escapades, I learn over late-night conversations in the kitchen, that my landlord is so much more than the sexiest woman I’ve ever met- she has a quick mind and the biggest heart. Once I’m in, I’m all in. And to convince her that we should see where this goes, I plan on turning up the heat–and not just in the kitchen.more
Romance doesn’t always have to be angst filled with life-threatening drama. Sometimes it can be two people getting to know each other and having fun doing it. Sometimes it should just “feel good.”
Lauren is so good at giving us real characters. You know the kind that you would hang out with, have a drink with and totally be part of your squad.
Perri is a cop that’s not looking for anything until she pulls over Derek, a bad boy that is looking for even less. But chemistry takes over, flirting begins and desire controls. With all of Derek’s badboyness is a man with a heart of gold, compassion galore and did I tell you he is amazing with kids. And Perri. Don’t let the idea of her being a cop fool you. She is sexy, freaky and loving!
I love the fun between these two characters, the banter and sassiness. The funny, comical, sexy path to finding what they both want makes this book such a 5-star read for me.

The Feel Good Factor is true to its title. This story is just so good! It’s a book you have to read in one sitting because you’re hooked from the very first sentence.
Only Lauren Blakely can write a book I would enjoy without any concerns. I always get what I want.
Derek and Perri’s pair is everything you could wish for in a couple. They’re so much fun!
Oh, now I can’t wait to read Shaw and Vanessa’s story! Bring it on!
4.5 Feeling So Good Stars!
I am falling in love with all the residents of Lucky Falls! Derek is the new hot, sexy EMT badboy with a heart of gold. He just moved to town to help his sister and her kids. He is just coming out of a bad relationship and isn’t looking for another one. But when he gets pulled over by a sexy local officer, their undeniable attraction can only be described as dirtier, more carnal, and red-hot desire! Perri is a police officer with her sites set on a promotion, and doesn’t have time for a relationship either, but this Mr. McHotPants is definitely her type. No matter how forbidden their relationship should be, they are both adults and choose the Feel-Good factor. Derek is so swoony being sweet one moment and then so deliciously dirty in others. Perri is smart, sassy, and honorable. I loved all the fun, sweet, and steamy reasons and moments they have together. They are so perfect together with their quick banter, soft hearts, and explosive chemistry. I also enjoyed catching up with past friends and family, especially Perri’s brother, Shaw, and can’t wait for his story! This book is another brilliant, clever, sexy, Blakely romance that will have you Feeling Oh So Good!
This book lives up to its title. I felt very very good reading it and with its conclusion. I had all the feels – laughing, smirking, sad and elated. It was the full package. I even had some angst over their deadline looming and calling it quits to the practicing for the Kissing Contest. We all know who was going to win!
I was so ready to read more about this couple from their encounter in Best Laid Plans. Everything about the description of Derek was intriguing, especially his dirty mouth! There are so many parts to this book that I was happy with. Derek and Perri are hard working, smart people with demanding jobs that make them both respected in their community. The authenticity of how they first met, ended up as roomies, then their relationship was credible and convincing. I felt like I was one of their gang hanging out and bonding with them. That’s when you know you have completely fallen into a book and I didn’t want to leave. I can NOT wait for Vanessa and Shaw’s story. The tension already has me humming.
The Feel Good Factor has it all for me! This roommates to lovers trope was hot and steamy. But we are also reading a Lauren Blakely book, so there are many times you are smiling like a loon. Perri surprised me. She is ready to show Derek what she can do behind closed doors. But it is not an easy journey. Nope, these two will fight tooth and nail to fend off their chemistry.
The Feel Good Factor is what the doctor ordered! I loved the characters and the small town. I loved that there were side characters you will never forget. The ending was perfect. Derek becomes my hero. This book my friends, I recommend whole heartily!
Lauren Blakely as always writes a witty and funny romance.
Derek is pulled over the second he arrives in his new town. He’s moving to be closer to his sister and help with raising her kids while her husband is over seas. When the sassy and fiery red headed cop pulls him over, he know he wants her in his bed.
Perrin is up for a promotion at work. She must stay focused. However, when her brother rents the room above her garage to the sexy, tattooed, EMT, she knows she’s in big trouble. Because Derek is the man Perri has always been attracted to.
Can they keep themselves from temptation?
Holy moly!! Lauren Blakely is blowing me away. This book is FIRE!!!! Ms. Blakely has definitely upped her game once again, with The Feel Good Factor. This book is definitely the HOTTEST to date. She’s cranking up the heat 1000% with a new-in-town paramedic, and the resident bad boy loving cop. Straight from their first meeting, Perri and Derek are OFF THE CHARTS!
Derek is the inked up, bike riding, ultimate bad-boy with a heart that makes you swoon. He’s sweet, charismatic, dirty-talking, perfect match for Perri. His kisses make her knees weak, and he walls crumble. He’s EVERYTHING!! My new favorite LB hero. Perri is a ball busting, fierce, and fiery heroine. She’s fearless, sexy and determined. The one thing that she will never deny is the power of a good kiss. Derek is prepared to deliver in spades!

**“Hello? Tattoos, ink, tall, dark, and handsome, bad boy. It’s that simple. It’s my temptation.”
Yes Perri! It’s my temptation too!
Oh how I love me some tatted up “bad boys”! Especially the ones that have a heart of gold and Derek definitely is all that and more. He’s sexy, flirtations, sweet and so great with his nieces and nephews. #Swoon. He may have the bad boy persona going on (tatted, rides a motorcycle, dirty talker) but he really is a great guy. Best of both worlds really!
Perri and Derek’s chemistry is off the charts smoking hot! But there is the sweetest moments too that will make your heart flutter. All the kisses that make your toes curl, Derek delivers. The sweet forehead kiss, the chaste kiss, the “slam you against the wall heated kiss, you get all the kisses!!
When they decide to enter the kissing contest, Derek decides to use that to his advantage, to test Perri’s resistance. I don’t know how that girl even resisted him for as long as she did, lol!!! He’s just too much!
If you want a steamy, sexy, slow burn romance with some dirty talk and heated bedrooms scenes, this is the perfect book for you!
Sexy officer…
Inked Paramedic….
Things are about to feel real good when kissing partners become housemates.
I loved, loved Derek and Perri. From start to finish the flirting and their frisky moments just made the story so much better. Also, the sexy scenes… Whoa mama! Derek and Perri had me reading one handed a scene or three. Oh.. did I mention that Derek is a dirty talker. (He’s totally wicked with his tongue.) I totally love and support this!
The Feel Good Factor has Lauren Blakely’s sexy signature, but at the same time it was refreshingly different. In addition, we get a glimpse of what it’s in store for the next couple.
I loved The Feel Good Factor and I highly recommend it. I can’t wait to read the next couple in line.
Lauren Blakely is always surprising me. She has the unique skill of creating different and engaging characters that are so real, so real that we want to know more about them in each chapter.
Perri and Derek are sexy, funny and it is so wonderful to read their journey in each page. The story is building their relationship slowly and we get to know them in each page.
Like all Lauren Blakely’s books this is original, romantic and sexy.
It is so worth it to read it!

This book was the most amazing entertaining and leave a smile on my face book you will EVER read!
Plus with the delicious man on the cover, you cant help but drool!!! I mean seriously, envisioning Derek as him was not a hard task, nope not one bit!!! LOL
The characters, the steamy sizzling tension from the get go and the rather witty banter made this an incredibly fun read!
What made this book so flipping good were the characters, the way they were within their jobs, with their friends and family! This story had so much heart and soul in it I felt like my heart could burst! I would definitely want people like them in my life and I really cannot wait for the next book! Im in awe of the author for writing this heartwarming read!
Dilemmas, drama, beautiful friendships and a whole lot of heat made for a really really really great read! You should definitely 1 click!
Lauren Blakely just has a knack for this kind of fast, dirty, fun romance story. Perri and Derek have a unique meet-cute, but their chemistry is real and their story completely entertaining to watch unfold. This network of characters and this town as a background are just wonderfully fabricated and I couldn’t help but smile and wish for the millionth time that I could somehow drop myself into fictional worlds!
Perri is undeterred by really anything standing in her way when it comes to her career as a police officer, and Derek is a completely lovable EMT who came to town to help his sister out with her kids during her husband’s deployment. A room for rent, some ground rules, a blackboard – mix generously and you have this steamy, unexpected but lovable romance. Definitely recommend!
The Feel Good Factor is my kind of book…sexy and HOT!!!! The chemistry between the two main characters, Derek and Perri, was undeniable. Every part of their story fit together so perfectly, from their meeting, to the hot sex, to the end of their story, it flowed effortlessly! I enjoyed every moment of Derek and Perri’s story, along with all of the supporting characters since Ms. Blakely makes you invested in their stories as well!
The Feel Good Factor definitely had ALL of the good feelings 😉 I highly recommend this book!
The Feel Good Factor is Lauren Blakely’s next sinfully sexy standalone. If you read Best Laid Plans then you have already met Perri, Arden’s sassy cop best friend. You also would have quickly met Derek, the just her type man she pulls over. I knew their story was going to be hot but fuck…
Derek is an EMT and new to town. He is there to help his sister with her three kids while Jodie’s husband is deployed oversees. Perri is a cop who is up for a promotion. She also happens to need a housemate. She never expected him to be on her doorstep especially after their hot as sin make-out session. There is no way it’s a good idea to have him living in her house even if it’s above the garage. But, they are adults. They make ground rules. That’s enough right?
Yeah. I laughed at that too.
If you read the synopsis, you know what’s up. I will say that Derek is an epic dirty talker. Omg. It’s so fucking hot, you guys. And the slow burn between them makes it even hotter. For real though, there is more to this couple then just mind-blowing kisses and sex. They have a connection beyond the bedroom. It’s sweet, funny, and swoony. I loved them!
Overall…it’s a fast read that definitely made me feel good. Real good. I laughed. I cried. I got all kids of heated. Damn, Lauren can write a sexy scene even with just air kisses! I fell for the characters. The story. The writing.
Quotes:
“Tell me your name. I’m dying to know.”
“Why do you need it so badly?”
“So I know what name to say when I’m fantasizing.”
“Let’s get one thing straight,” he growls. “What this is? It’s not attraction. It’s stronger. More intense. It’s red-hot fucking desire. It’s raw and it’s carnal, and it’s so much dirtier than attraction.”
“Perri?”
“Yeah?”
“Are you a good witch or a bad witch?”
I turn around, cataloging the naughty glint in his eyes. “Guess you’ll have to wait and see.”

**I voluntarily read an early copy of this title in exchange for an honest review**
Lauren Blakely has done it again by giving us a great story with plenty of feeling and humor!
Perri is a police officer in the small town where she lives. She’s working hard to get the promotion she wants and outside of her work, all she really has time for is her friends. She doesn’t have time to date and she also doesn’t want it to mess with her focus!
When Derek comes to town to help his sister with her three kids while her husband is deployed, he meets Perri nearly as soon as he hits the city limits and the chemistry between them is instantaneous! The EMT needs a place to stay and ironically, it ends up being the room over Perri’s garage that he is going to rent.
When Perri asks Derek to help her with a kissing contest she’s going to enter, the two end up “practicing” and as you can imagine, the chemistry between them continues to grow. While both of them don’t want to be in a relationship, are they going to be able to curb the growing feelings they have for one another?
I loved Derek and how amazing he was with his nieces and nephew. He was a wonderful uncle and his selflessness to help his sister was a sexy trait. I also loved that Perri was a strong woman working to succeed in a male driven occupation. The two were a great mix as they were both strong, but balanced one another out and the chalkboard was an amazing part of this story that I loved as well. Another winner by Lauren Blakely!
Oh, my word! I can’t express how much I truly loved this book. It’s perfectly titled that’s for sure. No angst, no drama involving third parties and absolutely no hating on the H/`h. Derek was just a down-to-earth character with a ‘bad boy’ image, minus the reputation. This man looks like sex on a stick, he may talk the talk and by god, does he walk the walk, but that’s where the ‘bad’ ends. He’s in insta-lust/ love with Perri from the moment the Lucky Falls police officer pulls him over on his way into town.
The chemistry was scorching and hit from that initial encounter and only got hotter the longer they spent together. Being housemates didn’t help matters and they explosive connection they had when they gave in was just awesome.
Loved picking up with previous characters from the earlier books too. All in all, a perfect read for a weekend with no plans. Or, any other day of the week, lol. one-Click today, and get ‘The Feel Good Factor’ for yourself.
A fantastic fun and flirty read! This romcom is filled with sexy banter and scorching chemistry. Derek, a bad boy with a filthy mouth that is so good. Perri, has a thing for bad boys but has a resistance so strong it’ll take someone special to break it down. A must read.
