Book Review! Meant for You by Layla Hagen




Meant for You (The Connor Family #3) by Layla Hagen
Genre: Adult (Contemporary Romance)
Date Published: November 12, 2018
Publisher: EverAfter Romance

Will Connor lives his life by simple rules: take care of those he loves, give one hundred percent to his job, and never ignore his instincts. So when he meets Paige, he doesn’t plan to ignore their crazy chemistry, or the way her pretty smile strips him of all defenses…
As the development director of a non-profit, Paige Lamonica has met her fair share of people. But Will is something else entirely. The hot detective is a little too confident, and far too easy on the eye. She loves that he goes toe-to-toe with her at every turn. When Will asks her to attend his sister’s wedding with him, she thinks he just wants to throw off his scent some relatives with a penchant for matchmaking.

She couldn’t be more wrong. Will wants her.

When she teases him, he teases her right back. When she pushes his buttons, he repays her with scorching hot kisses. Paige discovers that there’s more to Will than she thought. With every layer she peels off, she craves more…

But as the daughter of an army man, Paige has never wanted to get involved with someone on the force. Can Will persuade her to give in to their growing love?


Meant for you is the third book in the Connor Family series by Layla Hagen. From the start Will and Paige were intoxicating. They had an immediate chemistry, and Will's presence took over the pages. I love the bantering between them as well. They're cute and funny. Plus, there's drama thrown in to add tot he interest. You get to see couples from the previous books in the series, and let's not forget the Bennett's! I thoroughly enjoyed this story from beginning to end.

Book Review! Wild Without You by Layla Hagen




Wild Without You (The Connor Family #2) by Layla Hagen
Genre: Adult (Contemporary Romance)
Date Published: August 14, 2018
Publisher: EverAfter Romance

Lori
Planning weddings is my dream job. As a single Mom, I live vicariously through my brides. From picking the dress to cutting the cake, I'm there every step of the way.

When I meet the best man at the latest wedding, sparks fly. Graham Frazier is more than I bargained for. The charismatic soccer club owner is disillusioned with marriage after his divorce, so it's part of my job to make sure he won't slip any sarcastic jokes in his best man's speech.
It's not part of my job to notice his washboard abs, or that he kisses like a dream. Graham's touch is sizzling.

Before I know it, he bosses me into accepting gifts and spending the night at his house (his excuse is good: I can't possibly drive after working a wedding, can I?)
I say yes to both. There are no two ways about it. I have the hots for this bossy man.

Graham
Since my divorce, weddings aren't my favorite events. But when my best friends decide to tie the knot, I promise to throw them a party they won't forget.

I was counting on sitting through long hours of preparations, but I didn't count on meeting someone like Lori Connor.

I pursue her relentlessly, wanting those long legs wrapped around me and her smooth skin under my lips.

Then I meet her son, and that boy charms me even faster than his mother did. Before I know it, he has me wrapped around his little finger.

But are Lori and I ready for our lives to intertwine in ways we haven't even imagined before?


Wild Without You is the second book in the Connor Family series by Layla Hagen. This is Lori's story. She meets Graham, who isn't looking for anything serious. He's been married, got the t-shirt.... and the broken heart. But, these two have a magnetism from the start. I'm not sure what's in this fictional gene pool, but the Bennett boys and now the Connor boys sure know how to turn on the smolder. Graham was no exception. Lori didn't have a chance. Neither does the reader. Their story will have you oohing, ahhhing, and panting. *wink* Plus, with Lori's little boy thrown in the mix, you'll be awe-ing too. That's a lot of noise, isn't it? These stories just pull me in that much though. I've said it before, I know, but... why can't these people be real?!

Book Review! Anything for You by Layla Hagen




Anything for You (The Connor Family #1) by Layla Hagen
Genre: Adult (Contemporary Romance)
Date Published: May 3, 2018
Publisher: Self

Sexy. Sweet. Unapologetically romantic.
Hotshot CEO Landon Connor knows what he wants: success. He knows his way around the boardroom, and his work has been front and center for him since losing his wife. But after sealing the biggest deal of his career, he decides to take a trip to his hometown. Nothing spells vacation like a little time in the LA sun with the boisterous family he's missed so mu
But the tempting landscape designer working for his sister spells a whole lot more than fun. Maddie Jennings is everything Landon didn't think he wanted anymore. He can't get enough of Maddie's sweetness, or her sensual curves.
Despite fanning herself every time Landon comes near her, Maddie tries to ignore their attraction. But Maddie hasn't met anyone quite like Landon. He's sexier than anyone has the right to be, and more intense too.
When Landon romances her with late night walks and flowers, she can't help giving in to him. His touch is intoxicating, and his love is beautiful.
But can Landon open up his heart for longer than a summer?


Anything for You is the first book in the Connor Family series by Layla Hagen. First of all, I've had the song Anything for You by Gloria Estefan in my head for the last two days. Great song. I haven't heard the song in forever, but it's been in my head nonetheless. Okay so let's talk about the book. I can already tell I'm going to love the Connor's as much as the Bennett's. I wonder if they adopt people like the Bennett's do? *wink* 

Since his wife died, Landon has been all about work. She was his love. He never thought he'd find it again, and he wasn't looking. Maddie is busy with work too, but for different reasons. These two have some undeniable chemistry, and they don't deny their attraction, but they both want to keep it casual. So, I guess you could say they start off as friends with benefits, and there are some definite steamy moments. These two were cute together. I loved Landon's protective nature. He had some presence too. I mean, he could really fill a room with his smolder, and the dude's fictional. So, hats off to the author for pulling that off. I've loved everything I've read by her so far, and I can't wait to read more.

My teaser this week is from Anything For You by Layla Hagen



As I caught a glimpse of the flowers, a small voice at the back of my mind whispered that it would be very hard not to fall in love with Landon. I quieted the voice as he took my hand, whisking me out of the house for an evening of debauchery.


Description subject to change
Will be published on May 7th

Hotshot CEO Landon Connor knows his way around the boardroom. Ever since he lost his wife, Landon is all work and no play. But after he seals the biggest deal of his career, he decides to take a trip to his hometown. Nothing spells vacation like a little time with his boisterous family in the LA sun.

But the tempting landscape designer working for his sister spells a whole lot more than fun. Maddie Jennings is everything Landon didn't think he wanted anymore. He can't get enough of her sweetness, or her sensual curves.

Despite fanning herself every time Landon comes near her, Maddie tries to ignore their attraction. It’s the smart thing to do. But when Landon romances her with late night walks and bouquets of flowers, she can’t help giving in to his sexy charm.

But can Landon open up his heart for longer than a summer?
