Maxim and Lana’s book was awesome! I loved the instant connection and chemistry between these two. All it took was one look for Maxim to know that he had finally found his person; the problem is she vanished into the night with him having no way to find her. Maxim knew that he would stop at nothing to get and keep his Lana with him at any cost. I loved the drama, steam, angst, love and HEA that these two got. I can’t wait to see that Tory has in store for us next.

I loved Maxim and Lana. This is an awesome story. After a one night stand Lana sneaks away from Maxim but doesn't realize that he will not let her go. When she runs to her grandmother's in France Maxim isn't far behind. This is an exceptional love story, it has the tropes I love. An alpha male who will burn the world for his love even so far as to chase her down. When he claims her it's forever and he lets her claim him right back. This is a once started can't put down read. Loved this story.

Every once in a while, a book comes along that reminds you why falling in love with reading is such a dangerous little habit. You sit down expecting a few hours of entertainment, perhaps a little excitement, perhaps a few butterflies, and suddenly you are emotionally invested, smiling at your pages like someone has told you a secret, and wondering how a collection of words managed to make you feel so much. That was the kind of reading experience I found myself enjoying with Tell Me You'll Stay. What I loved most was the feeling of being wrapped in an atmosphere that makes your heart feel lighter while still giving your emotions plenty of reasons to misbehave. There is a particular kind of happiness that comes from reading something that makes you grin without realising it, makes you pause because a moment feels unexpectedly tender, and leaves you wanting to stay in that little fictional world for just a bit longer. And honestly, who gave books permission to make us emotionally unavailable to our actual responsibilities? I had things to do, after all. Apparently, my priorities had other plans. What makes a reading experience memorable is not always the complexity of its ideas or the number of dramatic moments it contains. Sometimes, it is the way the words make you feel as though you have been given permission to slow down, breathe a little easier, and enjoy the simple pleasure of becoming absorbed in something lovely. I appreciated that feeling here, the warmth that settles around you, the little sparks of excitement that make reading enjoyable, and the emotional softness that reminds you how deeply people can connect with the feelings found in fiction. There is something especially comforting about a book that allows you to experience happiness without demanding that you analyse every second of it. You can simply enjoy yourself, let your imagination wander, and follow the emotions wherever they lead. Yet the best part of an engaging reading experience is how unexpectedly personal it can become. A moment that might seem small to someone else can touch a place in your heart you did not realise needed a little attention. A sentence can make you smile long after you have finished reading it. A feeling can remind you of the excitement of being understood, the sweetness of having someone care, or the quiet hope that life still has beautiful surprises waiting around the corner. Those are the things I treasure most about reading, because they turn entertainment into an experience that feels genuinely meaningful. I also love books that allow humour and tenderness to exist together. Life is already complicated enough without every emotional moment requiring a dramatic soundtrack and a rainstorm outside the window. Sometimes, a little wit makes affection feel more natural, a playful moment makes a smile more genuine, and an unexpected burst of laughter makes the softer emotions feel even sweeter. There is a wonderful comfort in allowing yourself to enjoy those moments without overthinking them. You do not always need a story to leave you emotionally devastated to know that it has touched you. Sometimes, making you feel lighter, warmer, and a little more hopeful is an achievement in itself. This reading experience reminded me that there is a special place for books that offer an emotional escape while still allowing their feelings to linger after the pages have been turned. I found myself appreciating that balance between the pleasure of being entertained and the simple joy of being emotionally present. It is the kind of experience that makes you forget to check the clock, makes you promise yourself that you will stop after one more page, and then makes you question why you keep believing your own promises when a book has captured your attention. Some readers search for complicated mysteries, some want their hearts broken into a thousand fictional pieces, and others simply want a book that makes them smile at the end of a long day. Personally, I think there is room for all three, but there is something wonderfully underrated about a book that leaves you feeling good without making that happiness feel superficial. Warmth can be powerful. Tenderness can be memorable. A little laughter can stay with you longer than you expect. And sometimes, the most satisfying reading experience is the one that reminds you that romance, emotion, and imagination can make ordinary hours feel a little more special. What I want to celebrate most is the feeling of wanting to remain inside a reading experience because it has become a pleasant little refuge from the outside world. That feeling is difficult to manufacture, and when a book gives it to you, you appreciate it. You begin to understand why readers return to fiction again and again, looking for new voices, new emotional experiences, and new reasons to fall in love with the written word. There is always another book waiting somewhere, but the joy of discovering one that suits your mood is a pleasure all its own. If you are someone who loves becoming absorbed in a book, enjoys a little emotional warmth alongside moments that make you smile, and appreciates the simple magic of a reading experience that feels like a welcome break from everyday life, this is one to discover for yourself. I would rather let you experience its appeal in your own way than tell you what you should feel before you begin. After all, half the pleasure of reading is discovering those feelings without anyone else standing beside you and explaining them. Go in with an open mind, give yourself permission to enjoy the experience, and let the pages do what they do best. You might find yourself smiling when you least expect it, lingering a little longer than planned, or finishing with that lovely feeling of having spent time somewhere you were happy to be. For me, the real beauty of reading lies in those moments when a book makes the world feel a little softer, the heart a little lighter, and the simple act of turning a page feel like an invitation to experience something wonderful. Sometimes, that is more than enough. Sometimes, that is exactly what you needed. And sometimes, the book you pick up for a little entertainment becomes the reason you remember just how much joy a good reading experience can bring.

❤️‍🔥🔥 A Possessive Billionaire, One Unforgettable Night, and a Love He Refuses to Let Go!

Tell Me You’ll Stay by Tory Baker is a deliciously steamy billionaire romance filled with instant attraction, irresistible chemistry, and an alpha hero who falls hard and fast!

Maxim is a powerful billionaire who’s used to being in control. He knows what he wants, and when he spots Lana across a crowded nightclub, there’s absolutely no question that she’s the woman for him! 😍

After one unforgettable night together, Maxim wakes up to discover Lana has disappeared without leaving her number, last name, or even a goodbye.

And this billionaire is NOT happy about it! ❤️‍🔥

I absolutely love a possessive, over-the-top hero who falls first, and Maxim has all the qualities that make this trope so addictive. He’s confident, determined, and completely captivated by a woman who refuses to make things easy for him.

Lana’s decision to walk away makes their romance even more intriguing. She’s not simply another woman impressed by Maxim’s wealth and power, and that’s exactly what makes her unforgettable.

With one-night-stand chemistry, strangers-to-lovers tension, an unexpected pregnancy, and a billionaire determined to claim his happily ever after, this story has all the ingredients for a quick, passionate romance!

If you love alpha billionaires, instalove, accidental pregnancies, possessive heroes, he-falls-first romances, and plenty of steam, Maxim and Lana’s story is definitely one to add to your reading list!

Absolutely 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

Maxim is wealthy, gorgeous and intimidating. He is definitely all alpha, very possessive and obsessed with Lana after they’re very passionate one night. Even though she slipped away from him while he was sleeping, he wants a future with Lana in it and will not accept any other outcome. He uses any means necessary to find her while he broods, drinks too much and remembers their night together. The minute he discovers who and where she is, nothing will stop him from going to her. Maxim intends to show Lana his devotion and claim her as his wife.

Lana just wants a chance to find her own path in her life. She loves children and would like to be a teacher, not live the life of a bored wealthy housewife. Her wealthy parents have already decided who she will marry based on hell and advantageous. It will be to them. Lais feelings or wants do not figure into their plans. To them she is a pawn, not a person or their daughter. Lana’s attraction to Maxim was instant, but it quickly became something deeper and more meaningful. She also doesn’t want to be caught between two wealthy families.

A new secret makes it even more imperative for Lana to escape her family. Her grandmother helps her execute a plan. She is also the one who tells Lana that true love will find a way. Her feisty and indomitable grandmother makes it clear to Lana’s parents that they have made a big mistake. Maxim easily wins her favour because he is willing to fight for and protect Lana, but not force her into a relationship.

This angsty, hot and spicy romance has my recommendation.

Tell Me You’ll Stay is a fast, irresistible romance that pulled me in from the very beginning. Maxim’s confidence and determination give the story an exciting intensity, while his instant connection with Lana adds plenty of chemistry and heart. Their unforgettable first encounter sets up a captivating strangers-to-lovers journey that kept me eager to see what would happen next.

Tory Baker’s writing is engaging, polished, and wonderfully easy to get lost in. She balances bold romantic energy with genuine emotion, creating characters who feel compelling and a story that moves at exactly the right pace. I especially enjoyed the billionaire hero, one-night-stand, insta-love, and “he falls first” elements—they come together in a fun, satisfying way without losing the warmth at the center of the romance.

This is a swoon-worthy addition to the Seattle’s Most Eligible series and a perfect choice for readers who enjoy passionate, fast-paced contemporary romance. Tory Baker delivers another entertaining love story filled with charm, emotion, and irresistible chemistry. I loved the reading experience and happily recommend it—five enthusiastic stars!.

It's steamy right from the beginning, but the story starts to feel a little bland as it progresses. I also noticed some timeline inconsistencies in a few chapters. For example, Maxim arrives in France and mentions that his sister's wedding is in two weeks, but in the next chapter, Liliana says, "It's been an amazing couple of weeks." So... has it been more than two weeks already? And why does the story suddenly make it seem as though his sister's wedding is taking place in France, too?

Another thing that confused me was Liliana's name change between Henry and Richard. I honestly couldn't figure out which name was correct!

That said, for an insta-love romance, this book is amazing! Maxim literally tears the world apart just to find Liliana, and when they finally reunite, he wastes absolutely no time. The devotion, the intensity, the passion... I loved it!

It's such a good story, and I would have enjoyed it even more if not for the writing errors and inconsistencies. Still, Maxim's determination to find Liliana makes this a memorable read!.

Tell Me You'll stay is Maxim and Lana's book. These two were hot and heavy from the very beginning. If you love instalove, one night stand, he falls first and HARD, surprise pregnancy, billionaire romance and a man that will stop at absolutely nothing to find his woman... then this book is for you.

After an incredible night together, Lana runs back to her gilded cage and is basically a ghost. Leaving Maxim desperate to find her. After 8 grueling weeks he finally finds her and it definitely isn't where he expected her to be. Maxim doesn't care about family ties or why she ran, he just knows that she is the one for him. There is so much I can say but I also don't want to give away the goods. Just know that these two did not disappoint. I was hooked from the very first page to the very end!

Maxim and Lana’s book was amazing!
I loved the instant connection and chemistry between these two. All it took was one look for Maxim to know he had finally found his person, but then Lana disappeared into the night and he had no way of finding her. Maxim wasn’t about to give up, though, and I loved how determined he was to find his Lana and keep her by his side.

I loved the drama, steam, angst, and love between these two. Their story had me hooked, and I really enjoyed seeing everything they went through to get their HEA.

I also loved how their whole friend group came together at Lana grandmother’s house in France to make sure Maxim and Lana could get married and have the safety and protection they needed. It was so beautiful to see everyone show up for them and do whatever they could to help these two be together. Having that kind of support made it even more special!

Maxim is a man who is used to getting what he wants and after one night with Lana he realizes that will never be enough. He spends the next two months searching for her and once he finds her he isn’t ever going to let her go.

All Lana wanted was one night to follow her heart and it was a night she will never forget for multiple reasons. She is a woman with secrets who never expected to see him again but now that he has found her she only wants to be with her, but will they be able to overcome the obstacles determined to keep them apart?

The heat is intense and the romance is swoony as Maxim is one determined man when it comes to Lana and he isn’t about to let anyone or anything stand in their way. It was also fun to catch up with the other characters we have come to know and love.

Maxim is the perfect example of a book boyfriend that gives you hope about real men. He gives off the energy of “if he could, he would.” Lana is suppose to be an arranged marriage to establish more of her father’s business doings, she isn’t happy at all for it. She went out and got a job at a bar under a different name to hide from her “everyone knows her name”. She fell for Maxim in one night and went home with him and had a one night stand. She left with so much more that night and had to leave to leave the country. When she takes off, the story takes off like a Prince Charming and Snow White vibe. He will do anything to find the love of his life and fight for it after one night. Ohh swoomy.

Maxim & Lana

Short, sweet and very steamy! Crazy possessive! It took one night - honestly it took just moments. From the moment their eyes met, that was it. Of course, he had to find her! This is an epic finale for this series. I’m still not sure I’m ready to see the end of this amazing group, but what an amazing story to go out on. I love Maxim and Lana. And I adore her grandmother. That is one amazing lady. This one moves quickly and is incredibly steamy.

Great book! The FMC is a pawn in her parents need to be richer. She tries to build some part of her life for herself, takes a job as a waitress in a VIP club. There she meets a man and has a one night stand. The MMC is that man. She doesn’t give him her real name. He is an enemy of her father’s. He tries to find her. She discovers that she’s pregnant and goes away. There’s lots of twists. The spice is really good. And they eventually get a sweet HEA.

Sweet, Steamy, and Completely Addictive

What a fantastic read! Maxim and Lana's story had me hooked from the start. The mix of insta-love, surprise pregnancy, family drama, and a fiercely devoted billionaire hero made this impossible to put down.

Maxim completely stole my heart with his determination and loyalty, while Lana's strength kept me cheering for her every step of the way. Their chemistry was off the charts, and the emotional moments balanced perfectly with the steam.

A fast, swoony romance with all the feels and a satisfying HEA. Definitely a 5-star read for me!

Boy meets girl. Boy is obsessed with girl. Girl leaves the next morning and boy finds her and he never lets her go. There is a very feeling knowing that he never stopped looking for her. Romanoff was going to love his Liliana and vice versa. I loved her Grandmother. The whole story was absolutely over the top and amazing. This is going on my re-read list.

Maxim knows what he wants and that's the mystery woman he had a one night stand with. Now he just has to turn his obsession into a reality.

Liliana lives inside a guilded cage and her future is completely scripted by her parents. One wild night with a stranger sees her pregnant and running away to her grandmother's estate.

A spicy, fast paced, star crossed lovers romance with a sweet HEA.

Maxim falls for Lana in one night, and that one night leads to a miracle for them. Even as circumstances threaten to tear them apart, his persistence brings him closer to their happy ending.

I loved how steadfast he was in pursuing Lana—despite the challenges, across the oceans.
