Yikes. This is a super hot taboo read. I absolutely loved it.

Colter is in love with his next door neighbour Kaylee. The only problem is Kaylee is Colters best friends daughter.

Fabulous debut. I’m looking forward to reading some more hot sexy taboo reads from this author.

"That I’m too young. Too inexperienced. Too...innocent. But let me tell you something, Colter Steele. I’m bad. I can be very bad, and I want to be very bad for you.”

I don't really know how to review a read that is less than 100 pages.
I mean it was quick fun entertainment, nothing too wow.

Since it was a short read, it went by fast so there wasn't much build but the smut was hot.
It was alright.

Where to start!! Oh my gosh! What a way to debut!!! The book was filled with emotion, love and sexy times! Parts of it are swoon-worthy and there are panty melting parts. I think my favourite thing about this author is how she makes writing and a great strong alpha look easy! To say i absolutely loved it would be an understatement. It was well written, well thought out!
This book is filled with emotion and if you pick it up you won't be able to put it down. I will definitely be recommending to everyone and re-reading it again myself.

The whole Jayla storyline just seemed unnecessary and didn't real add any value to the plot. I don't really like OM/OW scenes anyway but especially when they serve no purpose and give no help to advancing the progression of the story or providing necessary backstory. It just came across like it was only there for the shock factor and made the book into something other than what I expected when I downloaded it.

If you’ve read any book by Lillian Cole before, you already know you’re in for a steamy ride. And this book is no exception. This was an enjoyable read, I just wish it was a little longer, so it could ad more depth to the story. If you like short, steamy reads, look no further. It’s short, sweet, wastes no time, and will whet your appetite.

HOLY. HOTNESS. Lillian Cole pulls out all the stops with this taboo forbidden romance. She totally brought the smoking hot sexy scenes and the alpha male in this short story. I definitely need more!

I'll admit, I went into this audiobook solely for Stephen Dexter narration! 😍
The story itself was a fun, quick trip to smut town. It wasn't really deep, but it was enjoyable and sexy (hello dirty talking hero). Some reviews mentiom not liking the random F/F action in this but I actually enjoyed it. It's ok for the heroine to enjoy orgasms at the hands of someone other than the hero.

I didn't like how, out of nowhere, the heroine is getting oral sex from her female best friend. I would've rated it higher if it weren't for this unnecessary scene and the other things the best friend did with/to the heroine. I'm giving it a 2 star rating for the other stuff going on in the book.

Age difference: 13 years. The hero is 31 and the heroine turns 18 on the first page of the book.

I was given an ARC of this book, and to this day, it still remains in my thoughts.

Lillian Cole's first taboo book is all that and so much more. Kaylee and Colter share a common bond--her dad. As his best friend, Colter realizes he feels more for his best friend's daughter than should ever be allowed. Likewise, Kaylee has always had a major crush on her dad's best friend, and finally has the balls to make her move.

When her parents leave for a trip, Kaylee and Colter give into their feelings. The sex is hot off the charts, the budding romance even better.

When their secret relationship is revealed, all seems lost at first, but in the end, true love certainly wins out.

Lillian Cole rocked this story out of the park and I can't wait to read more from her!

2.5 stars for me. This is a dad's best friend, age gap romance. I think there was too much going on with no explanations. Gorl has serious crush on neighbor on her 18th birthday she tells him he rejects her.

Fast forward a year, now she has a stalker, a bi best friend who likes her and she likes too but she's still in love with the neighbor. This is where the story lost me.

Heat level 🔥🔥🔥, it may have been hotter but I wasn't invested in the story anymore. A lot of dirty talk, teasing etc.

I was in the mood for something quick and taboo. This was it. I thought the whole best friend thing was a little weird but, like I said, taboo.

Kaylee has always had a crush on the sexy man living next door. The problem is he is her dad's best friend and only sees her as a girl. Now that she's an adult, she's determined to change the way he sees her.



Colter can't pinpoint exactly when the little minx next door transformed from the cute, innocent fifteen year old into the sultry, seductive siren before him. He's doing his best to shut down her advances but the arguments sound weak, even to him.



This book grabbed me from the beginning. I could not put it down! The characters were well developed and the storyline was well flushed. The scenes were so hot, they set me on fire!



This is the beginning for this author and I have no doubt the stories and heat are only going to get better and hotter. I can't wait to get my hands on them.



**Reader warning: be sure to have water on hand to keep the flames to a tolerable level!

Fuck no. I wasn't really liking the FMC that much because she was getting unexpectedly pushy and desperate, so I was close to DNF-ing this. But what made me drop this book like a hot potato was the out-of-nowhere pool scene where her best friend spreads her thighs and starts touching her. Where the hell did that come from?! A little warning would have been nice. If you advertise your book in a way that makes it seem 110% hetero, you should keep it that way or take five seconds to add a small content decription at the bottom of the summary.

I am a huge fan of both straight and M/M romance, but I'm personally not a fan of F/F content in books. I'm not sure why, but I just can't get into it, so I usually avoid those books altogether. It's cool if other people like it and it's great if an author includes it in their book, but that factor needs to be added to the book description so readers know what exactly they're getting. This is clearly advertised as an older man/younger woman romance, so there's no way in hell I would have guessed that there'd be a random scene between two female best friends, especially when there were no indications before that scene that there was any kind of attraction between them.

His to Claim
By:Lillian Cole

📚💕🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💕📚

Lillian Cole’s debut erotic book is an absolute slam dunk.

I really enjoyed this book about Colter and Kaylie and it kept me engrossed throughout. I really loved the characters and the way they interacted with each other. This is a erotic, hot, perfectly dirty forbidden must read book and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone.

This book has everything I love in a book. Then you add that it's beautifully written and the perfect fantasy. It is easily a five star read. Dating dads best friend is oh so dirty and this story flows so incredibly well that the next thing you know your 80% into the book and loving every second of it. The way the characters interact is perfect. Run, Hop, Jump or use your (1 click) finger to do whatever you have to do and get this amazing book. It'll get your heart racing with this forbidden romance, you'll want to scream with frustration and it'll let you discover that love just might conquer all. The chemistry is steamy and sweet and oh so erotic.

Thanks you Lillian Cole for opportunity to read and review.

Holy fucking hotness!!!! What a debut novella from the amazing Lillian cole!!!! The pre-warning about the level of sexy, dirty awesomeness did not do this book justice!!!!

Kaylee is the girl who Colter watched grow up next door. Best friends with her dad, Colter has always looked out for Kaylee, attended every birthday party and her high school graduation. He’s always felt something towards her, but he had no idea she had loved him for years.

On her 18th birthday that all changes, and what happens between them can only be described as an eruption of passion, the connection he tries so hard to deny taking them over the brink til there’s no going back.

The sex in this book is just......FUCK ITS HOT!!! So dirty, Forbidden and passionate, and then theres her best friend Jayla, well I honestly didn’t think I’d find their encounter hot but HOLY SHIT, it really was!!!!!

Be prepared to combust from the heat in this book!!!! It’s everything you would want in a Forbidden love story, with mountains of dirtiness to top it off!!!

Wowza! Looking for a delicious alpha and a sweet sexy heroine with a perfect happy ever after? This is your book. Looking for a writer who can melt your panties, giving you all the feels, while tapping into some taboo goodness? This is your author.

Sweet Kaylee has had a thing for her dad's best friend, Colter for years. While vying for his attention, Kaylee's best friend Jayla helps her "practice" kissing, Colter "catches" them in the act. Kaylee's parents, Tim and Evelyn go on a trip and ask Colter to watch over Kaylee. One thing leads to another and bam. Sweet virginal Kaylee is no longer virginal. The couple have some crazy hot, melt-your-panties sex and admit their love for each other. You can feel when shit is about to hit the fan, and inevitably it does, but the couple handles it better than I expected. This is one of those "Love never fails" books. It's one of those feel good books. Like really feel goods. ;)

I can't wait for more from this author! She had the perfect amount of heat, anticipation and sweetness. Exactly what I was hoping for in this taboo treat! Absolute deliciousness!

5 Taboo Loving Stars!!!!

Watch out taboo smut writing peeps, Lillian Cole is in town and she is going to take this little niche of romance writing by storm!!!!! The topic was taboo, the writing flowed perfectly, the story had just enough to keep you entertained! It was perfection!

Kaylee and Colter were hotness personified!!!!! The way Kaylee poked the bear, I almost felt a little bad for Colter lol…. I mean what’s a guy to do when you got all that hotness and temptation coming at ya?! I mean it didn’t help that he was fighting his own feelings, she certainly wasn’t doing anything to help the guy out?! Or was she?! I mean he really tried doing the right thing, but sometimes doing the wrong thing can just be oh so right…

This was a great debut novel, by Ms. Cole and I for one, cannot wait to see what other naughtiness she is going to bring our way.

Holy Hotness Batman!!!! Wow!!!

This book will have you fanning yourself. You may not want to read in public. Actually, I suggest you read in the privacy of your own home.

Kaylee has been in love with her next door neighbor for as long as she can remember. Doesn’t matter that he is much older or that he is her Dad’s best friend. She knows who she wants. She and her best friend Jayla come up with some ideas on how to get his resolve to crumble.

Colter knows his best friend’s daughter is a hot young lady. He has eyes. He knows she has a crush on him but he is unwilling to risk the consequences. When things start happening that do not help his resolve, what else can he do?

Lillian Cole is an author you will want to add to your automatic one-click list. She knows how to write hot Alpha men, with insta-love and a whole lot of sexiness!

Review given in exchange for an ARC

now i may have gotten this as an ARC but.... i am pretty sure my kindle smoked and caught on fire because this stuff was hot!

I am used to Lillian's other pen name, in which her insta loves are little bit more demure and calm. But Colter and Kay in this novel just hit all the right buttons! The characters are were developed and given the appropriate backstory so we know how they come together. There is no underage, there is no violence in this novel. Just hardcore sexy scenes, in which a few are kinky as heck! I read this novel 3 times before i posted this review because i simply was not sure how to put the amazingness of this novel into words! Thank you Lillian for releasing your taboo side, because it was worth the wait!

HOT HOT HOT! His to Claim is the debut book from Lillian Cole. Its a short read, but its packed with one hell of a punch. Forbidden insta love with all the makings for a night with B.O.B.

The best thing about this forbidden love story with tons of smut? The actual story is good. The writing is good. Its not littered with typos and stupidity. Many times when reading smut, the authors tend to make me feel like I am back in a 1970s D rated porno flick - with big mustaches and white heels in the air and the worst acting in the world.

I can assure you that this is not the case with Lillian Cole! I didn't once skip over scenes or roll my eyes! The story was believable. The sex was beyond HOT! I cant wait for more from this author!

This short taboo follows a man who is in love with his best friends daughter. It can be read in an hour and it would be a great hour. Colton is the hot dad that we all can fantasize about no matter our age.

Unlike the other taboo stories that are out there, his one shows more of a struggle that Colton has when it comes to Kaylee. Usually with other ones it’s s ‘I’m gonna do as I please and I don’t care’. I like that there is more build up for them and I like seeing that build up explode.

This is the first book for the K Langston writing as Lilian Cole. It’s all taboo and I love it. It’s the perfect kind of short story to read while waiting around on a break or right before you go to bed.

Sometimes you want something quick and dirty ...

... and this fits the bill. Unfortunately, the older I get, the less patient I become with teenagers and twenty-somethings and their immature version of "love." That said, I found very few grammatical errors, so kudos for a clean manuscript. The story rolls at a fast pace. The girl-on-girl action was unexpected and, for me, not titillating. The steamy scenes between our protagonists were appropriate hit and well executed.

If you're looking for a well-developed, well-rounded romance with solid character development, then look elsewhere. If you're looking for a quick, steamy read, this will satisfy your sweet tooth or maybe just whet your appetite.

Quick and Sexy Read, But Needed More...

This was a quick and sexy read! I liked both Kaylee and Colter. Wish this book was a bit longer though. l really wanted to explore more between them as a couple. What I read was a young teenage girl crushing on an older man. I didn't really read any interactions that would make me believe this 30-something man would actually fall for her, other than her hot body. Being there for her as she finished college, supporting her dreams was a plus. I just wished I could have read it being played out in the story, giving their relationship a bit more substance. But they did have a lot of chemistry, and the sex was smokin' hot!🔥🔥

This debut book by Lillian Cole lived up to the “Warning” at the beginning of the book and I will not be needing a refund, lol! “Dirty ditty” might be my new fave genre.

What this book lacks in length, it makes up for in heat! If you like kinky, this book is for you. If taboo relationships don’t bother you, this book is for you.

Kaylee was the young girl next door he’d always doted on, but as Colter watched her become an adult, he began to see her in a whole new way. Kaylee has loved him for years and now she’s going to do everything she can to show him she’s all woman!

First of all read the warning, if you weren’t already sucked in then I’m sure you will be! This is the debut taboo novella from the very very talented Lillian Cross and boy did it not disappoint!
Holy hotness!! This was so so naughty, off the charts smoking in fact and I loved the storyline that went right along with it.
I can’t bloomin wait to see what this lady pulls out the bag next but I know one thing’s for sure, if it’s anything like this book then it’s gonna be super hot, steamy and downright dirty! Bring it on!
