The Perfect Hookup

Rate this book
Sly
Nicole is not my type. No ink or piercings on her perfectly curvy frame. That's exactly why I tapped her profile.
My friends talked me into using The HookApp. Convinced I needed one night with another woman to get over my ex. I've been enjoying the single life, so I chose Nicole because I didn't think I had a chance with her. Imagine my surprise when she tapped me back.

And again, when I sit down to have dinner with her, and she makes it clear we're not hooking up tonight, I'm convinced she's playing a sick joke, but it's Nicole who's been played. Her best friend thought Nicole needed to loosen up. Started a profile for her on The HookApp to set Nicole up on blind dates. I'm just her latest victim.

Neither of us wants to be here. Now, I have the out I wanted. Will I take it, or will I take this opportunity to have more than a hookup with a perfect woman who shouldn't want a tatted-up, lumberjack-looking guy like me?

Short, spicy, dual POV. Happy ever after implied. 18+ read. Get a little update, the next morning, about Sly and Nicole in the next book, The Rival Hookup.

Sly and Nicole got on a date that was set up via the HookApp…yup it’s exactly what it sounds like, but he only goes because his friends are pressuring him, and he knew Nicole from when he was younger. She doesn’t realize at first that her friend set this up via the app. Neither are looking for a one-night stand, and are very up front about that, but they have a great time on their date, and then then both want more.

Adored, adored these two. Great short read with all the cute and sexy feels. I really, really needed an epilogue, so it’s a hfn.

The Perfect Hook Up is a fast fun read where things that are not supposed to be together end up being just what the other is looking for.

Both Sly and Nicole signed up on the app to make their friends happy and did not take it to seriously. When they connection on line, they never expect to in real life.

Enjoyed the book, it had the right of amount of heat and laughter that keeps you turning the page.

If you fancy a short and quick story then you've come to the right place with the story of Nicole and Sly. They meet on a date they made through the HookApp. Both have a different reason for the appointment, Sly because it will get rid of his friends' nagging and Nicole because of her friends. And we all know that a one night stand never ends there and it always turns into more once they spend a hot and passionate night.

Spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Neither Sly nor Nicole really want to hook up, but after being set up together by Nicole’s friend, they just decide to let the date play out. As the night goes on, they are drawn to each other more and more and their declarations to each other that they don’t plan on hooking up quickly change. Cute, instalove quick novella

Very short, but very good
4.5
It's a very, very short story, but one that is well built by the characters. The author, in a few pages, made the evening of Sly and Nicole credible. They're cute when they refuse to submit to others' choices, and hot when they submit to their own choices.

Sly and Nicole meet through a hook-up app, but their first face-to-face meeting is not what either of them expected. It doesn't take long for them to realise their intense attraction to one another. Will they go back on their agreement from the beginning of the night?...

Sly meets Nicole on a blind date where she tells him in no uncertain terms they will not be having sex. Both realize they were set up by friends and they didn't really want to be there until they get to talking and realize there is more. Fast quick read lots of steamy and great HEA. I really like this very short story.

A Great Quick Read

This story is exactly as advertised in the title, the perfect hookup. It a meet cute with a sexy rom-com feel. The characters are flipping adorable and the chemistry is fantastic. Literally the only thing that I have a problem with, is that I want so much more of their story. It's a great quick read.

Perfect couple hour read.
MF couple. Steamy hookup. Ink is my favorite color.
Sly thought Nicole was out of his league. Nicole wasn’t even planning on having a hookup.
These two realize that they like each other much more than they originally thought.

Sly and Nicole meet on a hookup app.
She's not his type, he's a total blind date.
This is cute and I loved the story and truly, it could have been longer and still would have been amazing.
Can't wait for more from this author!

A short read Sly and Nicole get more than they bargain for, they hit it off. They like each other and are literally perfect for each other. Short but still an enjoyable read. A nice break if you just want a quick read.

I loved this short MF book about Sly and Nicole! Sly’s friends convinced him to get on the hookup app to meet someone and get over his ex. Nicole’s friend set up a profile for Nicole hoping she would meet someone. They go on a date and it’s history from there!

A Lost Crush No More

This short has a couple who are more alike then different. The dual POV is just enough to flesh out the characters. The plot is self explanatory and well written. I liked how the main characters are attracted to each other, finally 😊🥰!
