About
the Book
Having
it all is a fantasy, right?
Chloe
Browne knows all about fantasy. Fantasy is her job.
And
she’s very, very good at what she does.
As
director of design for the O Spa chain, a sophisticated women’s
club that is trending its way into being the Next Big Thing, Chloe’s
ready to take on the world.
One
baby at a time.
Her
home study’s done, and she’s about to adopt, a thirty-something
single mother by choice. Who needs to put her life on hold for the
right guy when the right baby is waiting for her?
Besides,
talk about fantasy.
The
right guy?
Pfft.
Right.
And
then in walks Nick Grafton, with those commanding sapphire eyes and
wavy blonde hair and a sophisticated mouth that only smiles for her.
He’s
perfect.
But
the last thing Nick wants is to start fresh with a new baby as his
college-age kids fly the coop. A single father for more than fifteen
years after his wife walked out on her family, Nick finally tastes
freedom.
But
he likes the taste of Chloe more.

Excerpt
O
is a twenty-first century club for sophisticated women. A fourth
space for women of a discerning taste.
Home
is the first space. Work is the second space. Third spaces are
locations like coffee shops and malls.
O
is the fourth space. The space where you can arrive. Rest. Relax.
Indulge. Be someone you can’t be in the other three spaces.
Based
on our membership rates, we’re onto something. Our investors are,
shall we say, pleased.
O
does have a public presence, thanks to our retail environments. In
Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, and soon in New Orleans,
sophisticated consumers can spend hours—and hundreds of
dollars—browsing our selection of “elegant accessories for
intimate pleasure.”
That’s
right—sex toys. That’s what the masses call them. Except at O, we
cater to a clientele that doesn’t want to be one of the hoi
polloi. They want to be unique. In the know. Enlightened and
cosmopolitan on the surface.
But
a wildcat down…below.
Which
makes a Grade C unacceptable. No one wants to be average.
Especially
down below.
About
the Authors
New
York Times and USA Today Bestselling
Author Julia Kent writes romantic comedy with an edge. From
billionaires to BBWs to new adult rock stars, Julia finds a sensual,
goofy joy in every contemporary romance she writes. Unlike Shannon
from Shopping for a Billionaire,
she did not meet her husband after dropping her phone in a men's room
toilet (and he isn't a billionaire). She lives in New England with
her husband and three sons in a household where the toilet seat is
never, ever, down
Elisa
Reed is a journalist-turned-fiction-writer whose snappy, irreverent
prose combines with an irrepressible zest for the simpler, and often
intimate, pleasures of life to produce fun(ny) contemporary romance
with a focus on second chances. New England born and bred, Elisa Reed
now lives, writes, and plays in New Orleans and along the sugar sands
of the Gulf Coast.
