I know it’s wrong. He’s my best friend’s dad. But I can’t help it. Tonight’s the night.Joshua Stevens is everything. Fiercely focused, astonishingly gorgeous, and incredibly kind.He’s also my best friend’s dad.A year ago, I left home to go to college on the other side of the country. I thought the time away would dampen my innocent crush. But the fire inside me hasn’t dissipated. No way. The time … fire inside me hasn’t dissipated. No way. The time apart has only added fuel to the flames.
My crush isn’t so innocent anymore.
And now that I’m home for the summer, it looks like the feelings are mutual.
A year ago he was a shoulder to cry on. A rock to steady me when I needed it the most. He was sweet and kind and a wonderful man.
But now, everything is different. He doesn’t look at me so sweetly anymore. His eyes caress me like a flame. He’s sneaking glances at me that are anything but innocent.
The way he looks at me in my little white bikini tells me everything I need to know.
Okay, maybe I put on the bikini to push him. I didn’t think he would actually take the bait.
Turns out I thought wrong. Very wrong.
It looks like tonight is going to be the night. The night I’ve saved just for him.
But once this protective, possessive older man gets me in his arms…something tells me I’m never going to want the night to end…
Short, sweet and steamy, HEA, no cheating.
This book is part of the Night series but each book is a complete stand-alone and the books can be read in any order.
Enjoy!

The way Joshua and Angela seemed to be on the same wavelength even when he was resisting was awesome. I liked that Angela only had eyes for Joshua. I loved that Joshua was willing to do what he needed to in order to be with Angela. Their happy ever after made me smile. I recommend reading this book.

In this book we meet Angela and Joshua Stevens. Angela has wanted Joshua her best friends dad for years now in fact she has saved her v card for just this man. No matter how hard she tries to put him out of her mind and try and find someone more her age she just can’t get past the image of him. She even went to college on the other side of the country hoping that it would help with no success. Now that she is home for the summer she is finally going to be with the one man she wants she just has to figure out how. Joshua has wanted Angela for the last couple of years and the previous year it came to a head when she caught him literally with his pants down. There is so much he wants from her though and knows that it may overwhelm her. So he tries to put her out of his mind but realizes there is just no hope she is what he wants. Can these two find a HEA or with who they are to one another make that impossible?
This is another amazing hit by this author. It does have its ups and downs I really want to tell you about. However I don’t want to ruin the story for any other readers. I will say this book will take you on a journey you won’t see coming. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

Angela is in love with her best friend, Emily’s, dad, Joshua. Joshua is a powerful divorce lawyer who tries to hide his love for Angela but he inadvertently throws a party which is catered by someone Angela knows and Angela’s jealous streak comes out. They have to deal with Emily and her approval and the possible backlash from their town. The characters are good. I hope Emily gets her own story. The characters have chemistry. The story flows consistently.

Beautiful love story.
This is a wonderful love story of Angela & her best friend Emily’s dad Joshua. He’d known her for years as being his daughters best friend but over the last year he couldn’t get her out of his mind & her coming onto him in a skimpy bikini didn’t help until he couldn’t take it anymore & she felt the same. They knew they loved each other & going to be together for ever I was just worried as to whether this would still be the case depending on how Emily takes their relationship. I love Lauren’s books & this was no different.
