The Forever Experiment

Rate this book
What happens in Vegas...might just lead to love. Will one night of passion turn into a lifetime of regret—or a second chance?

Ten years after a steamy college hook-up that neither of them has forgotten, Easton Mason and Maya Atler cross paths at a corporate conference in Las Vegas. Easton, now a personal injury attorney, is still the charming, happy-go-lucky guy with great hands that Maya remembers from University. While she, a soaring literary lawyer, remains the stubborn, ambitious go-getter with perfect legs that he's never quite been able to get out of his head.

After a night on the strip leads to a little too much reminiscing and far too many tequila shots, Easton and Maya wake up the next morning very, very...married.

Maya's determined to annul their nuptials before anyone else hears about their drunken mistake, while Easton is convinced their little mishap is a stroke of fate, and he's not going to let her walk away this time. Before he signs away their marriage as if it never happened, he's determine to convince Maya to give him one chance to prove that this experiment in love might just be a forever kind of deal.

Contains mature themes.

About the author

Sarah A. Bailey

19 books742 followers
Sarah fell in love with reading as a child, starting with the Magic Treehouse Series. She quickly learned that books can take her to all the places she always dreamed of going, and allow her to live endless lifetimes in the one that we are given.
Sarah believes that a good, fluffy romance novel can make even the darkest days a little bit brighter. She believes in love stories readers can root for, the kind that will make even the skeptics believe in all that cheesy stuff like soulmates. She longs to produce stories that readers can pick up, and regardless of what’s weighing them down in life, feel a little lighter when they finish.
Sarah was born in California and raised in Southern Oregon, and still considers herself a Pacific Northwest gal at heart; right down to being a coffee snob, collecting hydro flasks, adamantly believing in Sasquatch, and feeling like rain-drenched forests are a form of therapy. Sarah now resides in North Carolina with her husband, Mike, and their dog-baby, Rue. When she’s not writing, she’s likely reading, and if she’s not reading, odds are she’s out searching for a decent cup of coffee, or a rainy pine forest.

IM FERAL FOR THIS MAN. PERIOD. DONE. GOODBYE.

thank you Sarah Bailey for gracing me with their presence. I love them.

Also if you’re someone who doesn’t normally like novellas because they don’t have enough substance, try a second chance novella 😮‍💨 this one changed my mind.

I’m learning very quickly they Sarah A. Bailey does not miss!! I loved this little novella, Easton and Maya so, so much 🫶🏽

This book was such a fun read, and I loved how Easton and Maya found their way back to each other (and then some). These two had some serious chemistry and I was here for every minute.

Easton HELLO! The mouth on this man 🥵 I loved him so much. He was so patient with Maya, but the way he showed her how much love she deserved was so beautiful. He never strayed from it and he was always there to be her supporter.

Maya was so fun. She is a bad b*tch who takes no sh*t from anyone. I love how she fully let her guard down around Easton and let herself be loved the way she should.

This was the perfect little book and everyone needs to read it and fall in love with these two! Thank you to Sarah for the ARC!

I have been meaning to dip my toes in the SB universe and when I saw this novella released I decided it was the perfect intro to pop my cherry 🍒

Maya and Easton went to college together and had a one time steamy library tryst that left Easton sure of his feelings for Maya and sent her running for the hills (metaphorically and physically because she did move to California). 10 years later when he sees her name at an upcoming conference Easton knows he has to tempt fate and see her again.

Maya is a strong independent woman who has never felt the need to reduce herself for a man. Easton has been in love with Maya practically at first sight and once he sees her again he knows this time he has to keep her. During drunken shenanigans after the conference in Vegas the two wind up married and Easton realizes this is his chance to make Maya realize that this could be more than just a second time fling.

I absolutely loved both of these characters so very much. The perfect epitome of black cat x golden retriever but throw in a lil switch energy??? Yes please thank you very much. While being a powerful woman Maya also allows Easton to take care of her in a way no one else ever has before. A soft only for him trope??? I feel like I’m looking in a mirror 🪞👀
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

This was sweet and spicy and swoony and everything you could possibly need in a valentine’s day novella all wrapped up with a bow. I can’t wait to dive into the rest of the SB universe because I already know its gonna be good.

Hi, yes I’d like to order an Easton to my door to call me “baby” please?

Such a cutie quick Valentine’s Day novella. Sarah’s writing is so captivating and will keep you on your toes. I love being able to read a whole book in only a few sittings and this was no exception. Maya and Easton went to college together and had amazing chemistry and ended up having a one night stand, but then both left and live on opposite sides of the country. They form a marriage pact, agreeing to get married to each other if they are both single by the time they are both 40.

10 years later and Maya and Easton both find themselves in the same city. They spend a night out in Vegas together and wake up married. Easton, being very much in love and obsessed with her, convinces her to do an “experiment” for one more night, seeing how it would be to be together forever.. hence the Forever Experiment hehe.

Here's the deal...this is now a Sarah Stan account and I have zero regrets. I fell in love with her writing during Heathen & Honeysuckle (thanks Tori!) and when this spicy novella landed on my kindle, I basically dropped all things and dove in. And it DID NOT Disappoint!

What you'll get:
- All the swoony and spice
- Friends to lovers
- It's always been you
- Dirty talking golden retriever / black cat but really a softie vibes

So stop what you're doing and make sure you snag this because I ate it up!

Updated- ALC review - these narrators brought this story to life in the best way. The emotions came through and the spice 😅😮‍💨



FIRST OF ALL- we love an acts service man and Easton takes the cake. Man is GONE for her and spends nearly half the book showing her so in different ways.

This Valentine Novella is 120 pages and there was so much love & emotion tied into the plot. There is actual plot, it’s not just smut filled.

HOWEVER there is an accidental marriage in Vegas… so you know there is some good spice. I was sweating, just for the record.

Easton is Penelope from The Soulmate Theory’s brother, but you can read this novella separate from it. I promise if this is the first @sarahabaileyauthor story, you’ll fall in love and want to read all her works.

5 ⭐️ 3 🌶️

If Sarah A. Bailey writes it, I’m going to read it! This was a spicy Valentine’s novella that had me blushing! Maya and Easton went to school together and had a hot night together in the library.They lost touch over the years but never forgot their night together. When Easton sees Maya will be speaking at a conference in Vegas he has to see her again. After a drunken reunion in Vegas, they accidentally get married.
This was the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. Maya is a badass lawyer that is career driven that doesn’t take any BS from anyone. Easton is a charming golden retriever that is obsessed with Maya. They complement each other and their chemistry and banter was so hot! And that window scene! 🥵🥵🥵 I ate this one up in one sitting!

If you need a GOOOOOOD novella, STOP. HERE. Easton and Maya are the epitome of opposites attract and I adore them!

One thing that made this novella stick out from others I’ve read is they weren’t complete strangers that were struck with instalust but we got to jump right in to something that had already been developing and then watch how time changes things. The character growth was exponential especially with Maya and the strong personality she has! She didn’t change her strength but calls it by name and works it into the relationship without changing herself. Absolutely masterful.

And Easton is a precious, lovely golden who fell first, hard, and pined for years……and years.

*summary*
Maya and Easton attended prelaw together where, for a couple of years, they took the same courses and studied consistently with each other. Easton, having the biggest, most unreciprocated crush on the planet, respected Maya’s desire to put her career and ambitions first. And will always do that for her. Time, schools, relationships, and careers separate them until Easton learns that Maya will be a keynote speaker at a convention in Las Vegas. And we know what happens in Vegas 😉


Tropes:
🩷 Valentines Day
🏛️ Lawyers
🩷 Accidental Marriage
🏛️ Exhibitionists
🩷 Opposites Attract


Do I recommend this novella? YES! Add it to your February TBR! You’ll be glad you did!

4.5 🌟

If Sarah writes it, best believe I’m reading it! She never fails to captivate me, and The Forever Experiment is no exception. From the very first chapter, I was HOOKED! And let me just say…chapter one? 🥵 It’s impossible not to be immediately drawn in by her signature blend of emotional depth and spice 🙌🏼

This Valentine’s Day novella is everything I could ever want and more. It’s short, but packed with substance, making it the perfect read for the season of love. Sarah masterfully balances sweetness and spice, creating a story that’s as heartfelt as it is intoxicating.

“𝙃𝙞 𝙈𝙖𝙮𝙖 𝘽𝙖𝙗𝙮.”
“𝙃𝙞 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙮 𝘽𝙤𝙮.”

𝙀𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙣!!!!! This man is the ultimate golden retriever energy. Sweet, loyal, and absolutely head-over-heels from the start. He’s the definition of a lover boy, falling quick and hard, and completely obsessed in the most swoon-worthy way. Easton’s devotion and love-drunk vibes had me melting with every page. He’s the kind of man who wears his heart on his sleeve, and his unrelenting adoration is enough to make anyone’s knees weak.

𝙈𝙖𝙮𝙖 is the epitome of black cat energy: mysterious, guarded, and fiercely independent. As the hyper-independent oldest daughter, she’s spent her life relying on no one but herself, a trait born from always having to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders. Smart, capable, and unapologetically badass, Maya is the kind of FMC you root for at every turn.

I found myself swooning so hard!!! The spice???SPICING!!! The window scene???? ooooof 🥵 And Easton’s possessive, tender side? It had me in a chokehold. 𝘓𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦:
“𝙈𝙮 𝙬𝙞𝙛𝙚,” “𝘽𝙖𝙗𝙮,” “𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙤𝙪𝙘𝙝,” 𝙖𝙣𝙙 “𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙛—” had me ready to kneel without hesitation. 🧎‍♀️‍➡️This man knows how to claim his feelings unapologetically, and it’s impossible not to fall head over heels for him.

𝙏𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙨:
• Valentine’s Day novella
• black cat x golden retriever
• accidental marriage
• boy obsessed
• he’s pierced
• “my wife”

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙀𝙭𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙧𝙚𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙤𝙣 𝙅𝙖𝙣𝙪𝙖𝙧𝙮 24𝙩𝙝! 𝙄𝙩’𝙨 𝙖 𝙨𝙪𝙥𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙘𝙮 𝙑𝙖𝙡𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚’𝙨 𝙜𝙞𝙛𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚.

Thank you, Sarah, for blessing me with this novella—I ATE IT UP AND LEFT NO CRUMBS. 🙌🏼

Short, sweet 🩷 and spicy!🌶️

Maya and Easton were friends in college… until the very end, just before going their separate ways to law school. That’s when they had one amazing, memorable, sizzling experience together! AND…promised each other that if the other was still free at 40 years old, they would get married!

They both moved on with their lives… living in different parts of the world. Years went by. Easton kind-of kept up with what was going on in her life…

And then one day he sees an advertisement, where Maya would be headlining a portion of a law conference in Vegas. He asks his boss if anyone was going from their firm. He said no, because it was on Valentine’s Day. Easton offers to go, stating that Maya is an old friend…

He goes… and things take off in a direction that I did NOT see coming… but one that made me smile all the more because it went that way!

That’s all I’m giving you! If it sounds like something you’d like, please look for it soon! It has NOT BEEN RELEASED YET! But, it’s coming out soon… on 1/27/26! So, look 👀 for it then!

4 1/2 bright, vivid, heart-warming, spicy, smart, sizzling stars for me… rounded up to 5! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

I knew even before I started reading this book that it would be INFINITE STARS and I was absolutely correct!!!!
If you look at the word “obsessed” in the dictionary, you will find a photo of Easton Mason. This man is so far gone for Maya and I was livingggggg for every moment of it. I could have read a full book of their story 😍
Ten years apart on the same day (Valentine's Day), Easton and Maya find themselves at a conference in Las Vegas (he may or may not have gone just to see her) and oops, they accidentally end up married 🤭 Their banter was PERFECT oh my gosh and the flirting, the very mutual pining, the HEALING oh lord my heart!! Easton was perfection!! He could not have been any sweeter! Maya is an ambitious woman and makes it known what her goals are and that at times her career will come first and Easton, ever the obsessed man, treats her the way she deserves and doesn't wish to change her at all and is happy to be around her in any capacity he can 🥺 I mean he helped do her damned SKIN/HAIR CARE ROUTINE like sir please!

I could ramble about these two forever (just like every other SAB couple) so please PLEASE go read this when it's out on January 24th!!!

The Forever Experiment by Sarah A. Bailey

This Valentine’s novella had me giggling and blushing the entire time. Sarah does it once again. What a fun, spicy, sweet novella that had me wanting more.

“Pretty Boy” Easton and “Maya, baby” have a one night stand in college. Vowing that it was a one time thing, the two of them make a pact that they will marry each other if they are both still single by the age of 40. Years later they find themselves at the same work conference. After a fun night on the Vegas strip, the two of them wake up with bling on their left hand and foggy memories of the night before.

An accidental Vegas wedding turns into a little experiment of what it would be like to be married. This novella is hot, spicy, and had me sweating. I loved Easton’s goofy and sweet personality and how badass and confident Maya is. So fun. Sarah’s writing is always a good time and this novella is no exception.

✨a novella equal parts swoon & spice
✨down bad mmc
✨hyper-independent black cat fmc
✨accidental marriage in Vegas
✨”let them watch” 🥵

📚mini synopsis:
Easton & Maya are both studying one night in their college library on Valentine’s Day and have a one night stand. 10 years later, Easton sees Maya is going to be a keynote speaker at a law convention and he convinces his boss to let him go, as he’s never stopped thinking about her. the two reconnect, and after a wild night in Vegas, they wake up husband and wife. Easton is sure this marriage is meant to be, so the two have a lil experiment to see what their life could be like if they stayed together.

💭my thoughts:
me🤝🏻accidental marriage but ESPECIALLY when Sarah adds her lil sprinkle of magic to it. Easton is such a golden retriever, and between his flirty one-liners and his dirty mouth, my cheeks stayed red from blushing for this entire novella. and that window scene? ICONIC🥵 this man knows what he wants and boyyy does he get her. Sarah, pls never leave your exhibitionist era🫠 and MAYA, my girl🥹 she’s so determined and independent, but I loved seeing her softer side slowly start to peek out as the story progressed.

10000/10 recommend🫶🏼 thank you @sarahabaileyauthor for an arc in exchange for an honest review!!

If Sarah A. Bailey writes it, I love it. That is law. Absolutely loved every single second of this novella.

Easton is just a sweet little puppy dog who is SO DOWN BAD for Maya. Easton tripped and fell so hard. I love Maya and her refusal to let her be anything but her authentic self and Easton for wanting exactly that.

It was cute and fluffy and spicy and honestly one of the best nigellas I’ve ever read because I’m normally not much of a novella person.

ARC REVIEW!!! this was really cute and fun! i'm not usually one to love a novella, but this was super cute! i will say, i would have much rather had this story in a full length book, but the novella will do! this one definitely stuck out to me because unlike a normal novella, these two weren't strangers who instantly fell in love with each other (which yuck i hate the instalove trope hah). no, they both went to college together and shared one special night and never talked about it again. not until they crossed paths 10 years later and it was like nothing had changed. i seriously loved these two together and will forever be swooning over them!

These two are ADORABLE! Maya and Easton have insane chemistry, the spice is off the charts and I love how well they balance each other out.

Maya is the serious super lawyer, who didn’t want a relationship with Easton ten years ago, in college. But that one night in the library 🔥🔥🔥is enough to make Easton very memorable to Maya. Easton, oh my goodness, the most precious golden retriever. So down bad for Maya, even after a decade apart.

Easton helps Maya loosen up and have some fun (which may or may not end in some trouble) and Maya gives Easton a purpose …making her happy. Cue the dang swoon.

This was a great Valentine’s Day novella, with some really lovable and relatable characters and SAB’s signature spice. Definitely recommend for a quick, fun read. And pay extra attention to the hotel room scene because WOW.

I DEVOURED this book in one sitting and loved every second of it! Easton Mason is charming, swoon-worthy, and just the right mix of persistence and heart. And Maya Atler? A queen. Ambitious, stubborn, and relatable in all the best ways. Their chemistry is 🔥, their banter is A+, and the whole “accidentally married in Vegas” trope is perfection.

The setup? Ten years after a college hook-up they both can’t forget, Easton and Maya wake up very married after one too many tequila shots. Maya’s ready to call it a mistake and move on, but Easton’s not about to let her get away again without proving they just might be endgame.

This book gave me all the feels—second chances, laugh-out-loud moments, and those sweet, swoony scenes that make your heart do little flips. If you love a feel-good romance with big laughs and bigger hearts, this one’s for you.

This was such a fun, sweet, spicy and quick little novella that Sarah graced us with. Bless her soul because we’re all foaming at the mouth for August, but yall should be foaming at the mouth for Easton because my oh my, this man was EVERYTHING.

“Maya Baby” had me absolutely unwell. It was the sweetest thing every time he called her that. And MANNNN his mouth was on fire. That man could say sweet nothings in my ear all day.

I’m obsessed, naturally. Thank you SB for this amazing read.

As usual, 5 stars for Sarah.

I have been obsessed with Easton since the first time I read his name since he showed up in TST and I am so excited he got his moment and happy ever after.

Maya is a bad ass bitch and I adore her. She’s the perfect complement to Easton’s silly and goofy personality. She loves her job something fierce, but learning to let loose a bit looks so good on her.

Love love love.

Ok, I devoured this novella! This story is exceptionally good! Am I surprised? No, because Sarah A. Bailey only writes exceptionally good love stories and The Forever Experiment is no exception! Maya and Easton story is fun, spiiiiiiiiicy (this book probably contains one of the hottest scenes you'll ever read), and incredibly sweet. I loved this novella soooooo much that, as much as it was absolutely perfect, I kind of wish it was longer.

Such a sweet Valentine’s Day novella! It’s the perfect feel good story with a bit of spice to get you in the V-day spirit.

Easton and Maya are college friends who have a ONS and agreed it would be a one time thing. 10 years later Easton still thinks about Maya and how she’s “the one that got away”.

He happens to sees Maya’s name listed as a keynote speaker at a law conference in Vegas and he just knows he has to see her again. Easton is a sweetheart and treats Maya like a queen even though they haven’t seen each other in years. He convinces her to be a little reckless…after one too many drinks, they are now husband and wife.

Now Easton has to prove to Maya that their marriage will work and they are meant to be. And I’m gonna be honest, I’d have a hard time saying no to Easton . The man says “my wife” and I melt & he’s got the jewelry 🫠

Thank you Sarah for the opportunity to read and review this advanced copy!
