Review/Synopsis:

Review:
Drunk On You was brilliant!! It took two strangers from instant chemistry to battling enemies to a BIG romantic love story. It’s a fantastic fusion of romantic steam with a romcom like feel and from the moment I started reading it I was drunk on Julian and Anastasia’s story!

The attraction between Julian and Anastasia never waned and holy, hot, steamy, burn up my kindle!!! This is Nikki’s hottest couple ever!!! What began as a ruse on both sides, lead to being fake engaged, and quickly turned into so much more for both Julian and Anastasia and whoa!!! What more it was. ❤️‍🔥💋😏

Yes, these two basically burned my entire kindle to pieces, but Julian is also bit of a cinnamon roll. However, don’t let his soft squishy center fool you because he’s also wrapped up in a business suit, smelling all kinds of delicious, and ready to take on Anastasia when it matters. He’s truly delicious and I loved each and every side he presented.

Julian constantly threw Anastasia for a loop,which isn’t all bad since she does the same thing to him. Anastasia is sharp, gorgeous and quick witted enough to play in a heavily dominated man’s world. It doesn’t take long for Julian to fall for his “trophy wife”. I loved how she constantly kept him on his toes. A woman designed perfectly for him and visa versa.

So while their relationship may have started as a falsehood to get to the same outcome it morphed into something neither of them expected.

Their back and forth battles while they fight for their job is legit romcom worthy 😂. And if that didn’t stir up their potent chemistry their dirty-talk during smexy times are hotter than hot. 🥵🔥 These two were so much fun to read I really didn’t want the story to ever end.

Synopsis:

Anastasia

If I want to prove to my dad that I can take his place as CEO of our family’s liquor company, I need to show him I won’t let work consume my life the way it did his.

He wants me to be a family woman? I can fake it till I make it.

A fake fiancé is the perfect solution, and the man I’ve found is the ideal candidate.

He’s smart and successful, and he’ll look great on paper as well as on my arm …

Until I realize he’s also my stiff competition.

Julian

She’s supposed to be a trophy wife. The missing ingredient I needed to toast my success.

I was hoping the ten million reasons I offered in exchange would be enough to get her to agree. But it turns out, she’s got her own reasons for using me.

From the boardroom to the bedroom, this woman has turned my world upside down.

She might be good at faking it, but her beauty and brains have me falling for real.

I’m just getting started, and I’m already drunk on her.

I don’t do casual hookups. Never have. Not even with the three supposed-to-be one-night stands I had six months ago.They all turned into the loves of my life.But now I know exactly what to do with the three hot guys I met at that serendipitous hockey game.Love them.Forever.

At least that’s the plan.

(Okay, yes, there’s still a lot of headboard-banging nights–and days–happening around here too. And days.)

Our house is truly a home, the naked-times are better than any dirty romance I’ve ever read…or written…and our relationship is rock solid.

At least, I’m pretty sure it is.

As long as we can take our foursome to four plus a bundle of joy without any of my guys deciding that our unconventional approach to family is just a little more than he bargained for.

Dani, Nathan, Michael, and Crew are back for the fourth and final installment of their romance! These books should be read in order so definitely start with Puck One Night Stands to enjoy their full sexy, fun story and their happily ever after!

Excerpt

CHAPTER ONE

Nathan

I am one minute away from finding out if my life is going to change forever.

Literally. The timer on the counter is ticking off the seconds.

And that life change is going to affect three other people. Who are all crowded into my bathroom with me at the moment.

This isn’t exactly how I ever pictured getting life altering news.

Of course, I never pictured getting this particular news in my life at all.

I’ve seen these moments in movies and television shows. The ones where the couple has the pregnancy test beside them, and they’re waiting for the timer to ring and tell them the happy—or terrible, depending on their perspective and the situation—news.

But for me, I’ve always known I couldn’t have children, so I’ve somehow automatically put that all into the category of Things That Happen to Other People.

Like flying in economy, or shopping at Wal-Mart.
