I’d never actually met Auburn Bouvier, but I despised him on principle. He was a cold, demanding dictator who made his employees miserable.
When I moved to New York City, it was inevitable that I would run into the head of the Bouvier fashion empire while visiting my dad at his office, and when I did, the man was nothing like I expected.
He was worse.
Yet I somehow ended up on a date with the enigmatic Mister Bouvier. Sure, he was incredibly handsome with jet black hair, a perfect jawline, and a mouth that looked like it was spun from sugar and sin, but he was also arrogant, overbearing, and a complete jerk. Not to mention he was fifteen years older than me.
Worst date ever.
Auburn
I needed a date. I recently broke up with my long-time girlfriend—again—so I was not looking for anything serious. I simply needed a pretty lady on my arm for one evening.
Then I met my assistant’s daughter, Gianna, and couldn’t peel my eyes away from her.
Since I was accustomed to getting exactly what I wanted, I demanded that she accompany me to the gala. No one dared to say no to me, so here we were.
Our age difference seemed to fade away the more I talked to Gianna. She was witty, intelligent, and the most gorgeous woman I’d ever seen.
3.75 stars⭐️ Did I enjoy this and have a good time while reading this? Yes. Did it deliver what was promised in the description of the book? No.
This had potential; I wanted to see how he was obsessing over her and chasing her while she didn't like him at all. But she "hated" him for maybe 2 minutes. It is said that her dad and Gianna hate his boss because he is an asshole, but we never learn what he did do so badly. The worst thing he did was that he didn't smile and that he was grumpy, that's it. She never even confronted him about that. They already declared love for each other by 40% and this book has almost 400 pages. Like I said, I wish we got some tension and angst, but they ended up together way too fast without any drama. There wasn't much plot; the biggest drama we got was that thing with his ex. Her dad, who "hated" him, was angry for about 5 minutes when he found out about their relationship.
There is a lot of smut, and those scenes were good, but I wish this book was about 100 pages shorter, it would be better. I liked both Auburn and Gianna, especially Auburn who was really a sweetheart and he really loved to spoil her.😂 If there was a tension like I thought it would be, I would probably give 5 stars.
✨️dad's boss ✨️billionaire ✨️for her "dislike" to love, he liked her from the moment he saw her ✨️age gap 15 years (he is 38, she is 23) ✨️dual pov, written in first person ✨️spicy: 🌶🌶🌶🌶 ✨️OW: his ex is trying to get back together but he is not interested ✨️HEA ✨️the first book in the series, can be read as a standalone
Daddy AB!!! The grumpy man who’s a big ol softie to who he cares about. When I started this book I thought man this guy THE NERVES but then enter Gia the sunshine and she makes Auburn open up a little. The way this audio makes this story even better. This is a duet narration. Emma wilder and J.F. Harding Big FANS OF BOTH OF THESE TWO! They each bring their own unique style to this story and I just love it.
So AB!!! Auburn Bouvier!! Or Daddy Auburn as T and I say. Have you come across men where you have heard about and just hate them on principle. Well AB comes off like that initially when u start to read the book. And then once u meet him you have a war within yourself to not like him and just hate him cause he is a meanie. Auburn Bouvier is class personified. He is such a good guy but has given off jerk vibes. Well then hello Gia, and then we see the change all on page where you do nothing but fall and fawn over the man. Gia , who just turns everything about AB on his head and has him head over heels for her . The story, these two weave is so beautiful that you want to be a part of their lives in real. IKIK they are not but still it's that FOMO you feel when reading this book. The grump meet sunshine that's wat this is perfectly fit. And truly when you start this book, where it is and where it ends it has such range oh my god i loved it. Daddy AB forever.
What to Expect: - Billionaire Romance - Grumpy/Sunshine - He Falls First - Age Gap - Dad's Boss - Forbidden Romance - Secret Relationship - Her: Hate to Love - Him: Obsession to Love - "Daddy" - "Good Girl"
I devoured this book! This was my first book by Jade Dollston, and I will absolutely be reading more. Love Without Numbers made me want to abandon all adult responsibilities to finish reading/listening. What starts as a last-minute date to an event turns into a delicious, age-gap, forbidden romance with all the feels. Gianna and Auburn had undeniable chemistry, and the spice was SPICIN' in this book! Daddy Auburn has a mouth on him and had me kicking my feet. Gianna absolutely held her own, and I loved how smart and sassy she was. Although she is 15 years his junior, she handled everything they went through with complete maturity. This story has an amazing plot and will absolutely pull on your heartstrings. This book ends with a bit of a cliffhanger, so I am excited to read the next book. Highly recommended.
Narration: A round of applause for Emma Wilder and JF Harding! Their performances were amazing, and they were the perfect voices for Gianna and Auburn. I am used to hearing JF Harding in rom-coms or similar stories. I was beyond impressed with his portrayal of Auburn. His deep and smooth voice was captivating. Emma was outstanding and really brought Gianna to life. Emma and JF brought the chemistry, steam, fun banter, and intense emotions. Together, they made this a wonderful listening experience.
Thanks to Jade Dollston and Hambright PR for the gifted audiobook. Opinions expressed are my own.
This was a new to me author so I went into this not knowing what to expect and I really loved it! There was a great balance of spice, humor and sweetness and even some drama that I enjoyed. This was super sexy but the characters also had an emotional connection and there were plenty of tender moments besides incredibly hot ones! The narrators were both fantastic and brought the characters to life
First things first, the audiobook performance on this story was outstanding! I haven’t read with my eyeballs the story, but I would still swear under oath that listening to this book is the best medium for maximum satisfaction of this book. #firghtme
Emma Wilder & JF Harding were absolute perfection in their roles, and their versatility narrating other characters was distinct and never had me guessing who was who while I sank deep into this story and got lost in it! 5 listening stars!!
GAH, I really like Jade Dollston’s style! It’s rare that I fall head over heart for an author after just one book, but I feel it, and I’m excited about it! I’ve always said that how a story makes you feel is one of the most important aspects of a story. If you don’t feel it, how are to believe it? How are you to understand it? How are you to root for the HEA? I felt this story from the beginning. I felt the attraction and the chemistry. I felt the romance of it all and it was an unbelievable delight! The story has a sexual drive to it but even thought that drive is plentiful, the romance and growth was center stage. For me, the age-gap was done perfectly, the timing and growth was perfect, and the storyline unfolded before my very eyes (ears) flawlessly. I wanted to experience Gianna & Auburn for a lot longer than I did and 11 hours is not a short period of time! <<< that should tell you something right there :)
#Sidebar: I still maintain that everyone that did not put this author on my radar before Home Cooked Books so generously provided me with this ALC, is fired!!
There were a few aspects of the story that I felt were a little underdeveloped and just dropped-in, and maybe some other things were over-used, LOL but seriously, really loud 👏🏻👏🏻round of applause👏🏻👏🏻 all around! 4.5 story stars!!
Goodness Gracious Jade!!! This freaking book!! This BOOK!!! What an incredible job you did!!
Gianna has recently inherited a home in NY and is flying there to live, when she loses her luggage (or the airline did), has a dead phone, can’t call a car, ends up having a rough first day on her way to NY!
She goes to her dads NY office where he is the PA to a billionaire jerk of a man, Auburn B! Tony has been working for the company for a long time and so G knows she already hates her dads boss.
Well fast forward a few minutes and Auburn shows up and basically demands that Gianna accompany him to a charity event, not knowing it’s Tony’s daughter… and Tony isn’t happy but G is wanting to go to meet some new people since she is brand new to town.
When AB comes to pick up G on the limo for the event, he automatically was a jerk off and she was not having that. So the strong personality that Gianna is, tells billionaire Auburn what’s up and let’s him know how he will act towards her or she will get right in back inside to her apartment. (This is where I fell in love with her personality and character)
Auburn hasn’t had a woman stand up to him before because of who he is and he is quite enamored with her spunk and apologized rather quickly. Which is not his personality.
G is the kindest soul and an amazing human who everyone loves, but she can also be a very blunt smarta$$, which makes her so much more relatable and likable.
So how do you think it will go between a strong FMC and a rich jerk of a billionaire on this forced date to the event?! You just read to find out!!!
Here is what you can expect from this story- Grumpy / Sunshine Billionaire Strong FMC Charitable events for children / children’s homes Strained family dynamics Strong family dynamics Lots of laughter - banter 😜 Spicy swoon worthy bedroom happenings 🔥🥵🌶️
What I felt throughout this book was love, laughter, steamy moments that will have you needing a cold shower, empathy, heartbreaking situations, fun moments and everything in between!
The character development was incredibly done!! The storyline was nothing short of amazing! The side characters were so well written!
Stellar job Jade!!! Seriously - this is one of my fav reads so far this year!!
6/5⭐️ 5/5 🌶️
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
This book has a little bit of everything! I absolutely devoured this book. I went in completely blind, the entire book was yummy and not your typical billionaire age-gap romance.
There were zero parts that dragged. I couldn’t believe it. Not giving away anything but the twist with her father 🤗😍unexpected but turned into such a cute addition to the story and the ending!
Let’s talk about the unfettered spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️. Thank the Lord for Jane Dollston. The absolutely nailed the spice and scenes in this book. The book reads like a screen play. You can see every word.
Last but definitely not least the banter between Auburn and Gianna was some of the best I’ve ever read. I was barking with laughter at times, the on page chemistry was delicious. I can’t wait to see how this series progresses with Monty’s story.
10/10 recommend.
PS: I’m low key hoping Cruz gets his own story with the lost sister! 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Can I just say I’m a suck when it comes to praise kinks 😏😏❤️🔥❤️🔥 This book was just perfect! I loved how strong minded Gianna was and didn’t put up with Auburn’s rude attitude in the beginning😆 Tbh I loved how the author portrayed Auburn on the exterior in the beginning as a rude person but in reality he’s a good person. He just gives jerk vibes 🤷🏼♀️ I didn’t know if I loved him or just wanted to punch him 🤣 I love the grumpy/sunshine troupe so freaking much🥹💖🥹 ❤️🔥❤️🔥Daddy Auburn truly turned the heat up❤️🔥❤️🔥 Truly worth the read and can’t wait to read Blaire and Beau’s story!!🥹💖🥹
I have to say, every book written by this author gets better. I loved reading about Gianna and Auburn. A great mixture of romance and drama. I can't wait for the next book. Well done, yet again, Jade Dollston, you are an amazing storyteller.
This book was amazing 😍 it’s my first book by this author. She writes amazing characters and scenes. Especially the pie 🥧 scene 🥵 I can’t wait to read more by this author
Okay this story is ADORABLE and Sexy! I will take a possessive billionaire who falls so deep he is mush over his girl and kinky in the sheets all day long please! I really enjoyed this book. Gianna moved to New York to be closer to her dad, who works for a grumpy billionaire, Auburn Bouvier. While Gianna is visiting her dad at work, the grump asks her dad to get him a date for an event coming up, one look at Gianna and Auburn decides he wants HER as his date, she’s extremely skeptic but says yes. The moment Auburn meets Gianna he is sucked into her sassy persona and their sarcastic banter only heightens the chemistry they have. When Gianna has a medical emergency at the event they are at together Auburn’s soft, gentle side is right by Gianna and in that moment his heart belongs to her. This is a forbidden, age gap, sexy AF billionaire romance narrated in dual by Emma Wilder and JF Harding, who did an absolute amazing job. Emma Wilders man voice is insanely good and I’m always so blown away how narrators can be both characters and rock it. They were both able to bring Gianna and Auburn’s sweet emotions to life and automatically switch to the spicy side and heat things up. The playful banter was a favorite for me in this book and both JF Harding and Emma Wilder had me laughing with their voices. They also had me in tears towards the end and when a narrator can bring so many emotions to a story you know it’s a good one!
Thank you Jade for the opportunity to listen and review this audiobook.
Have you ever read a book that you love so much you want to scream so everyone knows about it? Yeah, that’s how I feel about this book.
This is my first Jade Dollston and OH MY GOD I NEED MORE. This book is heavy on the spice, but just as heavy on the plot. From the very first chapter, I fell in love with Auburn and Gianna.
❤️Age gap ❤️Billionaire MMC ❤️Dad’s boss ❤️Daddy k!nk ❤️Good girl ❤️My pet ❤️Insta-love
When Auburn sees Gianna first for the first time, he happens to need a date to an event. So the infamous playboy billionaire tells his assistant, aka Gianna’s dad, that he wants Gianna. And from that very first date together, you knew that these two were meant to be.
Their love was instant and you just know that they are the forever kind of soulmates.
Their chemistry and attraction to each other was completely off the charts. And let me tell you, the spice was SPICING in this book. I am talking top notch spice and dirty talking from our man Auburn.
But aside from the spice, the plot was also fantastic. There are so many different situations going on that were handled so well. I loved Tony, Tora, Blair, Kassie, and so many more of the side characters!
I found myself tearing up at parts too just from how much love was going on in this book.
💵age gap 💵dads boss 💵daddy/babygurl 💵hand necklace 💵 billionaire 💵so much more
This book is such a Wild ride! I couldn't stop devouring this book. I seriously need more!!! I can't wait to see what book 2 has to offer. There are so many wonderful side characters I would love to see have their story to!!
Auburn you gorgeous, hard ass, overbearing, sweet, caring man. This is a new book boyfriend of mine. I call dibs on him and maybe Ginna🥵
They are the perfect yin and yang that u can't stop staring at!! The story is beyond wonderful and the obstacles they face just wow.
If you are looking for with plot drama and spicy time and a perfect HEA.... this is sooo the book for u!
I can't say to much in this review because SPOILERS! So if yall want to find out wat happens to them and who they bring into the circle and the twist and turns they face RUN and get this book!! U will not regret it!!!
Holy shit I loved this. I ate this MF uppp. Gianna was SO funny and witty. The banter between her and Auburn was PERFECTION. I love how she brought out the soft side to him and made him re-evaluate everything in life. Her personality rubbed off on him in the best way.
Gianna stood true to herself and wasn’t ever influenced by his billionaire status. She loved him for who he was. And on the flip side, he didn’t ever try to change her, spitfire personality and all. He loved every single thing about her.
All of the characters in this book were so likable! Janie and Jaxon? 😭 LOVED THEM. Tony, tora, lehra, Cruz? I’m sooo excited to read more about this group!
Wow. Am I in an alternate reality where Booktok recommendations have actually worked for me? Are the algorithm gods blessing me with a couple of good recommendations before they pull the rug away from under my feet? I will just not look at a gift horse in the mouth and be happy that I got to enjoy a great fluffy (and steamy) book. With no 3rd act break up!! And a couple who communicates. I know a part of the book was a bit over the top or unrealistic but that is why I am reading fiction. I went in with the understanding that a lot of what I read might not be possible in real life but it sure is fun to read it.
I loved Gianna. I know the age gap was a point of contention in the plot and that required her to be way younger than Auburn but the way they kept harping she was so mature for her age got to me a bit. I mean she was 23, I would have liked to have seen her do some things with her friends other than reading about it after the fact. That is just a personal gripe. I also would've liked to have seen some of Auburn and Gianna's interactions with Paul, his father. We got a lot more page time with Tony (Gianna's dad) and none with Paul except for a mention at the end. I just would've liked to have read more about the Bouvier family in general as that is the series name.
In the end this was a pretty well written romance even if it had a few plot points that were not covered or elaborated on. But the romance sure was swoon worthy.
You know what the best feeling is? Reading a book that you end up loving so much which you had 0 expectations for.
This book was so swoonyy, even though it's a bit of fast-paced romance/relationship, I think it was enjoyable with the right amount of spice.
A couple of laugh out loud moments as well🤣😂🥰
Love me some good found family storylines as well.
Also, I love that Gianna was a bit like "ooh you dont gotta do this or that for me." While dating a billionaire, she got over it quick enough for me. Because i truly hate it when fmc is all humble and she don't want to accept mmc gifts/support, etc. People say money dont solve all problems/make you happy while it's partially true. It's illogical and stupid because money damn sure clears your debt, facilitates care etc etc etc....😅
Anywayyy am finishing this review with two quotes I loved the most (also hope that this helps manifest and enforce my prayers for my future man 😆😅🤣😂🫠)
“ You give me perspective I never knew I needed.”
"...Every day, I wake up wondering how I can be the man you deserve.”
Loved thiiiss boook. Ended in a semi cliffhanger so going to read the next book immediately. I think🤭
This was an Awesome, Must Read Book. I couldn't put this book down. 💓 this Couple. This book is a page turner, steamy, funny, wonderful couple, will cry, and OMG the ending. Can't Wait for the next book. You Definitely, Got to read thus book.
Love Without Numbers by Jade Dollston ✨ARC Book Review✨
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
“It may sound cliché, but age really is just a number, Auburn. It doesn’t dictate how two people connect on a deeper level.”
Tropes~
💋Age Gap Romance (38 & 23) 💋Grumpy/ Sunshine 💋Strong FMC 💋Billionaire 💋Dads Boss 💋Her: Hate To Love 💋Him: Obsessed To Love 💋Lots of “Daddy” and “Good Girl” 💋Spicy
This book was so perfect! I loved every second of it and if I could I would give it more than 5 stars! I was laughing so much throughout this book! There are so many funny scenes! But don’t worry there are just as much steamy scenes too! Ones that will have you needing a cold shower!
I absolutely love the personality of these two characters and their chemistry together! You literally couldn’t write a better couple!
Oh and those side characters/ cameos absolute perfection! I definitely need to read Blaire and Beau’s stories again! And I need a book on Tony!
I swear any book that Jade writes will be amazing! Any book she write I will automatically read without have a clue what the book is about! She is one of my favorite auto buy authors! Highly recommend reading this and every book of hers!
Gianna has recently inherited an apartment in NY and is flying there to live. When the airline loses her luggage, even her phone is dead so she can’t call a ride. She definitely had a rough trip to NY!
Eventually she is able to make it to her dad’s office where is is a PA to Auburn, aka billionaire jerk of a man. Tony her dad has been working there for a long time and Gianna knows she already hates her dads boss.
A few minutes later Auburn arrives and demands that Gianna accompany him to a charity event not knowing that it’s Tony’s daughter… Tony isn’t happy about it but Gianna want to meet new people since she is new in town.
When Auburn arrives to pick up Gianna her is a big jerk and she won’t have any of that. So with Gianna’s strong personality she tells him what’s up and tells him if he’s going to ask this way to her she’s just go back into her apartment.
Auburn never had a woman stand up to him before because of who is us and is instantly enamored with her spunk and apologies which again is not his personality….
So what do you think will happen between a strong sassy FMC and a jerk of a billionaire on this forced date? Will they be at each others throats all night? Or will they have a lovely time? Read to find out!
I'm going to get the one me-thing out of the way now. No Third Act Break up just feels weird for me. i was anxious while listening waiting for that other shoe to drop.
Now, on to the real reason we're all here, Gianna and Auburn. Gianna is someone I could easily see myself being friends with. She's good down to the core. She wears her heart on her sleeve and she takes to sh!t from people. she basically gives Auburn a piece of her mind the first official time they've spoken and it causes him to take notice of her.
The age gap was a pretty big one, but those don't bother me and Gianna seems older than she really is, so it's not that noticeable. The dynamic between Gianna and Auburn seemed a little instalove to me, but I didn't hate it like I sometimes do. It also helps that they're just so freaking sweet together.
The spice was spicing. The banter was bantering. The swoon was swooning. I have to say that the last like 1/4 of the book seemed a little slow to me and just dragged on a bit (where I would expect the 3rd act break up to go had there been one). It might've been a good place to add some drama with the twins' bio parents or something.
THE TWINS!!! They 100% have my heart in this book. These two for suuuuuuuuure tugged at my heartstrings and I'm so happy it all turned out the way it did.
Also...I didn't realize this was part of an interconnected series and while this story has wrapped up it ends in a mini-cliffy? A steep decline? A minor rockslide? I'm not sure, but I'm really interested to see what comes up next based on that final chapter of the final page!
Emma Wilder and JF Harding did such a great job on this audio. They brought the characters to life and I hope they stick with the series as this is the first time I've listened to either of them and want more.
Thank you Jade and Hambright PR for the ALC.
Grumpy / Sunshine Billionaire Strong FMC Charitable events for children / children’s homes Strained family dynamics Strong family dynamics Lots of laughter - banter 😜 No Third Act Breakup Spicy swoon worthy bedroom happenings 🔥🥵🌶️
Jade!! Can we please not create men that I can't get my hands on in real life! Mr. Auburn Bouvier (or shall I say B00by-A) is like a dream come true. Age really is just a number, and his love and stamina are proof of that.
Auburn doesn't date and he hardly cares. His only focus is work and that probably has to do with his homelife growing up. Nothing has distracted him from his goals, until he spots Gianna. She was visiting her father (Auburn's PA) one day, and Auburn mistook her for one of the models for his company and instantly wanted her to be his guest for the gala coming up. Gianna agreed, only to help her dad not realizing that night would change her forever. What started out as the worst date ever, quickly turned into the most romantic gesture possible. A knight in shining armor, there to protect her. He shows her she is worth everything to him and nothing can stop his love for her. Auburn and Gianna may have 15 years separating them, and they may be complete opposites, but together they are the perfect pair. They balance each other out and Gianna helps Auburn become a better person. Their love for each other may be "forbidden" and "uncalled" for but they won't let anyone stop them.
Jade does an amazing job bringing all the feels to this novel. She captivates my attention right away and has me on a rollercoaster of emotions throughout this book. I was laughing, crying and a few times mouth dropped open in shock. Thankfully my boyfriend is used to this by now and just learns to ignore me lol. But I love everything about this book, and I can't wait for the next one. It does end on a cliffhanger that has me playing the guessing games and coming up with theories on what is going to happen next. This was my first novel by Jade, but I can guarantee it won't be my last.
The story follows Gianna a 23 year old who just moved to New York for a fresh start after her Nana passes away and leaves her her apartment. She takes it as an opportunity to spend more time with her father who works in New York for the devilishly handsome Auburn Bouvier. By chance Auburn invites her to attend a gala with him and after a few hiccups, Gianna dazzles Auburn with her personality and wit. Compelled by the heated desire between them they begin a secret sexual relationship.
After blowing each other minds in every way and position they can. They soon realise that this is more between them. Addicted to each other they overcome so many obstacles that stand between them. He makes her strong and she makes him gentle and attentive where it counts. They open each others eyes to so much and work together on everything that comes up against them. Coming out the other side being stronger than ever.
I loved this book, it’s so refreshing to see two adults in a healthy and loving relationship where they actually work through and talk about what’s going on instead of getting swirled up within the drama and exaggerating it. I wouldn’t say it’s instant love but it is definitely instant desire and passion. The spice is top notch with fresh new spicy scenes throughout. In terms of triggers there isn’t many but if an@l play is a trigger than that would be one, along with being tied up and spanked. It doesn’t dip extremely into dark spice but it is still incredibly spicy so I’d put spice at about a 4/5. Overall I’d 100% rate this book a 5/5. I couldn’t fault it and I devoured it in 2 days (mainly cause I had to sleep otherwise it would’ve been one). It’s such a refreshing read that I’ll definitely be revisiting it.

"You're lucky Sexy Shrek is out of the building right now. He left about thirty minutes ago for a meeting." My forehead creased in confusion. "Sexy Shrek?" “The boss man. He's a total ogre, but at least he's nice to look at." another perfect read by JADE DOLLSTON it’s like every hero she writes is written for me fr!! and Auburn is maybe my favorite one yet!! (sorry woody you’ve been placed lower now thank you for your service tho🫡 ) we stan billionaire in this house but you know what’s even better billionaire who’s actually use their money for good and cares about the cause <3 i’m obsessed with how he was this little grumpy guy and then you get to his inner thoughts all about show much he’s obsessed with and loves gianna. god it’s me again🧎🏻♀️ also the best proposal ever!! anyways can’t believe she got me to care about kids that’s how you know how well the characters are written. obsessed with cruz and kinda hopes he gets his own story too🙏 so many scenes made me kick my feet and giggle and overall it was just such a good read. if you like age gap, billionaire,dads boss, hate to love, “good girl.” , daddy , and whole lots of spice it’s a must read now!! quotes that live in my head rent free👀
I tilted her face to mine, whispering against her lips, "You give me perspective I never knew I needed.”
"That's it. Come for me, Baby Girl." His teeth bit into my neck, marking me. "You're fucking mine now." "Yours,"
"Go study, Gianna, before you find yourself bent over that desk." Maybe I could take a short break...
"You're such a good girl, pet. So fucking amazing”
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Jade deserves so much praise for this book! Age-Gap & Good Girl/Daddy kink done so damn well! 😮💨 I’m still recovering from this book because of how good it is! It does leave you is with “What’s going to happen next??” but it does have a HEA and now I’m so pumped for the next book. We meet our beautiful Gianna who has moved from Texas to NY after graduating. After an unpleasant flight experience, she finally makes it to her dad’s job to pick up keys so she can head over to the apartment she inherited from her Nana when she passed BUT when the boss walks in, she didn’t expect to be noticed and to be requested to be his date for a charity gala. Auburn “BB” Bouvier is is holy hotness. The way Jade portrays him has me drooling. He knew he was f*cked the moment he laid eyes on her. Their chemistry is off the charts and they are so easy to fall in love with. Not only do they have a strong physical connection, they also have a deep emotional connection. The side characters definitely did their job! I love them so much! One of my favorite part of this read is the laugh out loud banter. Not only does this book make you laugh, it makes you swoon, get angry and emotional at times and definitely leaves you speechless! Spice is always a HIT with jade’s books! You get the best of both worlds. Spicy with a great plot! 👏🏼🔥
This story had me laughing, swooning, and squirming in my seat! I couldn’t get enough of the hilarious banter between Auburn & Gia but their chemistry gave me ALL the swoon!
This story was the perfect blend of sweet & k!nky - leaving both my heart and thighs clenching.
Emma Wilder and JF Harding absolutely nailed this audio narration! They both brought so much life to these characters and their delivery was so ✨on point✨ that I found myself laughing out loud repeatedly!
This was my first Jade Dollston book but it definitely won’t be my last! And that mini cliffhanger has me so anxious to dive into the next Bouvier brother’s story!
