Tempt Me
An Alpha Beds a Virgin Dirty Office Romance
Some take-overs don’t have to be hostile. Especially when the man in charge is tall, dark, and dead-sexy.
Lauren Sweet has no idea that the man who just took over her company is also going to be her first, last, and only. This curvy, shy executive assistant has yet to have her Brittney speared, but one look at her new boss, and she’s ready.
Jonathan Eastwood is a man who gets what he wants. And the moment he sees Lauren Sweet, he not only knows he wants her, but he knows it won’t be long before he has her. He’d give up his fortune if it means one night between her creamy, sweet thighs. But one night won’t be enough. Not with her.
Caution: Adele Hart specializes in quickies with a heart-on. All insta-love, all HEA’s, all the time. The dirtier the better. Think of this as your afternoon delight, your guilty pleasure, bonbons for your brain.

5 FULLY TEMPTING STARS
"This woman is mine. She’ll wear my ring and bear my children. I’m as certain of that as I am the sun will rise tomorrow."
So I will try to keep this review short and relatively spoiler free but I REALLY LOVED THIS BOOK!
Yes, it's a short one but it was also very easy to read. No complicated story line, no jumping around timeline, no evil other ex, or any of that other nonsense that gets in the way of a good romantic read.
And I for one LOVED THAT!
Yes, I will admit that there is sex but it's not all this book was about!
The hero sees the heroine one day and saves her from being hit by a taxi and he does everything for them to be together!
At first, she is promoted to his assistant but soon it becomes more.
He give her a letter that she must open but she tells him that she trust him and refuses to open it.
She was taking a chance on love and him!
This story was funny also and that I wasn't expecting!
I laughed so hard when the heroine said this
“Your thingy is too big.” She grips my hips, and I don’t know if she’s pulling me in or pushing me away. I think she’s conflicted. I rise up and pull my cock from her pussy.
"Thingy?” I hold it in my hand and stroke it for her. “Look at it, Lauren. Call it a cock. Call it a dick. Nickname it after some god like Thor, but don’t call it a thingy.”
Seriously, this couple was just cute and fun to read about!
I would recommend this book for anyone who enjoys the Novella and the type of insta-love relationship. Now this might not be very realistic but in my opinion is fun to read about.
It's a romance book after all!
Just an enjoyable and pleasant way to pass an hour!
Slight spoiler, here is the content of the letter the hero gives the heroine at the beginning...
"Lauren, I love you today. I’ll love you tomorrow. I’ll love you forever. Be mine today. Be mine tomorrow. Be mine forever. Marry me. Yours today, tomorrow, forever, JJ."
I just thought it was just too sweet not to share with you all.
That way even if you don't read this book you are left with a sweet quote from the book anyways.
Happy reading all!

I loved this one! I really liked the H and h. The H is so sweet. I hope the rest of Adele Hart's books are as good as this one. And I'm glad she's a safe author.
The story is about Jonathan and Lauren.
He took over the company she's working for and now, it's Eastwood and Associates.
There's a welcome dinner for the new CEO and on it's way there, she was almost hit by a taxi. He saved her and they went to the dinner together. She was searching for the boss, not knowing she's with him already.
He's so sure of his feelings for her that he gave her an envelope with a promise note in it. When she's in doubt, she can open and read it. And the note was so sweet.
There's a nice epilogue.

4.5 'Tempting' Stars
SO FREAKING DELICIOUS!!! I loved it!!! JJ was the most perfect H, making this one perfect sweet and smutty read! The only reason I'm not given the full five stars if not for the editing issues. Other than than it was fantastic. The perfect little treat! And that epilogue!!! JJ really is swoon-worthy! Sigh....

I loved the beginning of this book but then it lost a little something for me towards the end. I know it's a short read but I'd like more story and less sex. Crazy, I know.

Just what I needed after a vengefool h in my last book.
What can I say? Office romance with a thousand of inconsistencies but who cares it's smut and I loved it.

When I read this book, all I want to do just to climb up the hero like KOALA!!! Swoon...swoon..swoon... this book warm my heart just like the book I crave! Sweet and sweet and hot and purrfect! Sweet and funny!!
The first line a little bit slow and kind of boring. But the more I read this book the more I fall hard for both hero and heroine.
I love how the heroine seems so lack of experience towards opposite sex but with the hero she wasn't shy or even afraid to touch him. To snuggle to him. To talk to him what she like and she doesn't like.
I love how the hero seems so sure about his feeling towards the heroine but in the same time, he did not force the heroine with his own feeling. He let the heroine feel all the feelings by herself.
And I love how the fell for each other nicely and smoothly without some kind of too hot and too rush. Just perfect!
And this book was funny. It feels like... they are funny too? #SwoonToTheMax.

"When I get to the microphone and turn around, she no longer sips from the glass. She drinks from the bottle. I adjust my tie and take a cursory look around the room. Hundreds of people watch me, but I keep my eyes focused on her. I run my tongue over my lips and think about how sweet she would taste."

3.5 stars. Short. Smutty. Instalove. I liked the beginning better than the ending just because there was more character/story development in the beginning. Would have rated it higher if that development was extended throughout the story. Will be ready the others!

A quick read without any build-up.

Lauren Sweet has not always had an easy go of things. As a 25 year old that happens to be a plus sized virgin she doesn't have an easy time with men. When she is saved from being hit by a car by a mysterious stranger she has no idea how much her life is about to change.
Jonathan Eastwood is used to getting what he wants and when he sets his eyes upon Lauren he knows she is the one he has been waiting for all this time.
Yet Lauren is not sure and when she lets her insecurities get the best of her will she lose what she has always wanted?
This is a super quick and fun read!
I liked the innocence of Lauren and how she truly cared what others thought about her and how she got the job that she did. I also felt bad for Lauren in that she honestly had no clue on why Jonathan would be attracted to her as she is overweight.
I liked the no nonsense attitude of Jonathan and how he went after what he wanted and stuck to his beliefs. He tried to show Lauren how much he cared about her and went above to prove it to her.
This was a super fun read and I look forward to more from the author!

Each time I read a book by Adele Hart I think it's my new favorite, and this one was no different. Jonathan was 100% alpha-confidence - as soon as he met Lauren he knew she was the one for him. The promise-in-an-envelope was sheer genius! Lauren learns to trust his love for her as her confidence in herself grows, and it was absolutely hilarious to read the results of that growth in how she handled her predecessor! This author knows how to write dreamy, swoon-worthy heroes who say all the right things, who strike just the right balance between patience and chest-thumping, and who make every girl's dreams come true. Lots of laugh-out-loud moments, especially at the opening party. This is everything a romance should be.

"Tempt me" was an office romance between JJ and Lauren, whom he instantly falls for and wants in his bed and life forever.
Now, The story was short and sweet but the whole bitchy ex secretary made me want to stab- but the vomit thing made me laugh? Weird out? Gross? It was just absurd!
I really adored the epilogue and extra one star for that.
Liking these quick reads by this author.

What's the Opposite of the Hostile Takeover?
Jonathan saves Lauren from a near-accident, and that sets everything else in motion. It's a cute boss/assistant tale with plenty of steamy scenes.

Meh. The story started off in the middle. They'd already met by then so I was confused and wondering if I missed something. Jonathan was okay but I found Lauren manner of speech childish (thingy and fornicate). Their scenes together were all right but could've been better.

Oh I love it! Each one of Adele Hart's books are better than the last. They are the perfect length for a quick time filler. The steamyness is an added bonus.
