I know what people think when they hear the name Sebastian Bennett.Determined. Ruthless. Head of a business empire. From the outside, I look bulletproof.Behind closed doors, though, family always comes first. My parents. My eight–yes, eight–siblings. Every single one of them nagging at me to settle down and get married. I may be bulletproof, but I can’t seem to deflect them. No matter how many … matter how many times I patiently explain that I don’t believe in love.
I hadn’t counted on Ava Lindt.
Beautiful. Funny. Just as stubborn as I am. It’s frankly infuriating.
I only hired her as a consultant to make our next jewelry collection launch unforgettable. So why is it thoughts of her that I can’t shake? Those curves, that smile… it’s irresistible. And completely off-limits.
She won’t risk her job. I won’t risk my heart. But one kiss, one touch at a time, our sizzling chemistry is turning into a deep connection. With her time at Bennett Enterprises drawing to a close, I’ll have to decide what I was wrong about– her, or love.

This book was refreshingly a drama free love story. I really enjoyed it!
Very good story. Up to chapter 23 it had a good story with some laugh out loud moments. Then it changed to about 80% descriptions of them have sex …. here and there and everywhere. Finally it advanced the story a bit to reach a good conclusion. Timeline kept having more events then the timeline allowed.
Great read
Your Irresistible Love by Layla Hagen is the first book in The Bennett Family series. It is a sizzling romance and an amazing story. I loved the story and could not put it down. Once again, Layla Hagen has once again shown that she is a marvelous story teller. Your Irresistible Love is the story of Sebastian Bennett, the oldest Bennett child and the CEO of Bennett Enterprises, the company he created and Ava Lindt, a marketing consultant hired by Sebastian and his brother Logan, the CFO to help with the of their next show. Sebastian is immediately attracted to Ava, but she informs him about the non-fraternization clause in her contract. Ava cannot afford to lose her job, she has no family and has dreams that she wants to achieve. Sebastian pursues Ava and eventually they begin to date. Ava is not like other woman that Sebastian dates, she does not want anything from him and calls him out when he wants to give her a ruby necklace. She reveals that is Sebastian’s problem, giving women luxurious gifts. Sebastian has dated women that use him for his money and position and Ava has dated men that have cheated on her and then have blamed her for it. As Sebastian and Ava’s romance blossoms, Ava decides to move in with Sebastian, since they both think their romance will be done when her contract is over in four months. Ava falls in love with Sebastian and all the Bennetts, she always wanted a big family and she found it in with the Bennetts. Both Sebastian and Ava profess their love for one another. I love the characters, Layla Hagen always writes about strong female characters. Your Irresistible Love is filled with Layla Hagen’s normal bittersweet and poignant moments, not to mention her usual plot twists that I have come to expect and love! There were several plot twist in Your Irresistible Love, and I am so glad that they all get resolved. So happy that Ava and Sebastian got their happily ever after. So looking forward to starting the next book in the series. I love the Bennett family.
Sweet story
Fabulous character development, skilled plot crafting. First let me say… I HATE first person present point of view. I mean, really, really hate it. But this was absolutely fabulous! Layla USES the POV to go deep in her character’s POV and stay deep. We really are there with each character, seeing what they see, feeling what they feel, thinking what they think. It was quite skilled, and superb character development and a wonderful family that draws you right in! I can’t wait to read the rest of these Bennett’s…. yes, even if they are in first person present!
I love a good series. One that grabs you from the first chapter are my weakness. Which was the case in this series by Layla Hagen which tells a story about the Bennett family. Each book goes through each of the Bennett children finding love through sneaky but skillful matchmaking from the other siblings lol.
The first book is about the eldest Bennett, Sebastian, who meets Ava when she comes to work for his family’s company.
This book is light but also full of fun, hilarious moments as well as some steamy romance and alpha caveman protectiveness.
Sweet, sassy, and sexy story. I liked it!
Love Sebastian and Ava’s story The Bennetts are wonderful
A stodgy romance, same ol, same ol. Quick read, there is steam and not a lot of story. Easy to leave this one by the wayside. If your goal is steam but not much story, this is a good choice.
Great Beginings
Nadine was a marketing consultant that came to San Francisco to help Bennett Enterprises. She gas a clause in her employment contact about dating CEO of the company. Sebastian is getting pressure from his family about dating. But Cupid struck.
Well hello Bennett family. Layla Hagen has given us a wonderful cast of characters that has me excited for each of the family member’s stories. Sebastian Bennett leads off the tales; he has built a jewelry empire out of the need to make sure his family is taken care of. Growing up, their family didn’t have much so he made it his mission to become a success and ensure that his family wouldn’t want for anything. Along the way, he put work ahead of love and now all the women he dates are more interested in his bank account than him. Ava is brought into Bennett Enterprises to launch the next jewelry line with a fresh perspective. Ava is excited about her new assignment but she never expected Sebastian Bennett to light her fire. Ava isn’t allowed to date anyone she is working for; will she be able to keep her distance from Sebastian? Sebastian is challenged by Ava, which surprises him as she treats him like any other person. Will Sebastian be willing to let love into his life? Is Ava willing to risk her career to find true happiness? Loved every moment of Sebastian and Ava’s journey, as well as meeting the entire Bennett family, Layla has definitely set the tone for an incredible series. I appreciate the great chemistry and banter that made me feel like they were my friends.
The entire Bennett family series is a must read! This family is absolutely amazing, you are cheering for each and every family member to find their HEA and the support that the family provides each other is absolutely heartwarming. I was absolutely in love with this family from the first book! Read the entire series in 5 days and can’t wait for the first book in the cousins series!
