More often than not, less is more. This was one of those.
Billionaire l, Hayden Gaster, goes to strip club for the first time, where he lays eyes on Lydia Carmichael... it’s lust at first sight for both. Hayden wants more, but Lydia knows the spoilt rich boy types that frequent the strip Club, they only want one thing and she’s not willing to sleep with him, she is after all a virgin. But Hayden is persistent, and Lydia soon caves and goes on a date with him, within two weeks he’s wanting to get married to her.
But with her pride and stubbornness she won’t give her job up and refuses to let Hayden help her financially. Hayden on the other hand has a battle of his own with his wealthy family, will they accept he’s fallen in love with a stripper? Lydia’s job puts pressure on their relationship, causing fights between the two, her clients make Hayden see red especially when they touch her inappropriately, and Hayden’s family can’t understand why he’s fallen for someone like her. Can they get a HEA?
I almost didn’t finish this several times. Just when I thought it was ending, more crap was added to the story line, in addition to the introduction to characters that were of no relevance, why spend a whole chapter describing Hayden’s friends only for them not to appear anywhere else in the story? 🙄🙄🙄 and the mob-esque killings, irrelevant, didn’t add to the story in anyway. This wasn’t worth the time I took to finish, the story could have been done, SHOULD have been done in half the length. Anyway yeah, this wasn’t for me.
Loved it! I received this book as an ARC for an honest review. I loved the storyline between the two main character. I love the way the author incorporated other characters from her other books into this book. I love Hayden he had the patience of a man in love to put up with Lydia crap. I can't wait to see them again in her other books are they own. I would recommend this book. This is my opinion.
I loved this book... I loved how determined Hayden was to prove that he wanted her for more than her body. I loved how Lydia was a down to earth person for the most part. It was a love at first sight grab your attention and run. The only reason it is getting 4 stars is because it does not warn you warn you when there is a time jump and (now for some spoilers read on at your own discretion)
At the end I wish the author would have put as much into the time leaps as she did the rest of the book I'm one of these that likes to know exactly what each character looks like for the most part they are described how ever at the end it never once tells you who the baby looks like it. Or how Vicky and Lydia came to be close. Vicky was against Hayden and Lydia being together then all of a sudden she finds him malnourished and nearly dead and helps him become himself and tells him it's so he can go get his woman never once does it say why she had the change of heart. Nor does it explain why Lydia also forgave Vicky for the way she talked to her or how is came about. That is something that I believe should have been explained considering at the end of the book she is helping Lydia make important decisions about their child and I'm sorry family for not if found out respect someone you don't normally want their opinions when it comes to the safety of your child. Also after saying they moved her dad to L.A.and how much he wishes her mom was there to see it, he doesn't get mentioned again I'm sorry billionaire or not I highly doubt with how hell bent she was in providing for her father she would just leave him to spend holidays alone. The way she was described was a fierce family oriented person that is also humble and down to earth at least till the end. Those are the only downfalls in my opinion.
The story of Lydia and Hayden was quite a story. I have read other stories of men who fall for strippers, but this one was really over top. Hayden, the main male character falls instantly in love with Lydia when he meets her for his birthday. The dialogue between them was juvenile at times. I wanted to like him but he was just a bit too much. Too possessive, too overbearing. At times I felt he didn’t give her much breathing room. Lydia! Omg I wanted to slap her. That chick got on my last nerves. I wanted to like her too but she made it hard. Her back and forth drove me nuts. I get she was independent, and she wanted to take care of her father in her way. All Hayden wanted was to ease her burden for her. Instead of being grateful for wanting to love and care for her she kept being stubborn, and refused to give up stripping. I can’t even imagine how difficult it was watching his girl strip for other men. It took a near tragedy for her to see just how deeply he loved her and what lengths he would go for her. I’m glad she made peace with his sister. The plot was decent, although it was rather lengthy. It took me quite a while to get through story. There were many grammar and editing errors, which was why I gave it a 3 star.
Hayden always said that when talking about the love of his life, stripper Lydia. It started as a birthday lap dance and sparked into an intense relationship. Hayden, young, rich and focused proved to Lydia that he is all alpha and will be the man of her dreams. Both characters will grate your nerves at times, but a lot of that is both being so young and unsure of this new emotion called love. This story has a lil bit of everything from comedy to suspense. This is a stand alone book but if you have read any other books by Posey you will be happy to see an appearance or two from some of her beloved characters.
I've become a HUGE fan of Ms. Park's novels. Each novel builds upon the characters introduced in other works. The main characters are developed in detail so you know what makes them tick as well as how they mesh with the other protagonists and antagonists from her other series. My advice to you is to GET INTO IT if you want romance, action and adventure. I can't wait for her next novel!
Way too many grammatical errors. And I didn't like Lydia. She was so ridiculous and stubborn. She was determined to ruin a good relationship. Honestly I would have given up long ago if I was Hayden.
I couldn't put this book down! The story of Hayden and Lydia is filled with hotness and stubbornness. You won't want to put this book down, nor will you want the book to end.
I am voluntarily writing this review for this book I received through arc.
Hayden and his friends go to a strip club for Hayden’s birthday. Lydia was working when the guys came in. Lydia sees Hayden as a guy that goes after what he wants. She noticed him when he first walked in and she wounds up going into the vip rooms. Hayden knows he is going to make her his. Hayden doesn’t like anyone touching her in fact he would rather take care if her financial obligations. Lydia is a virgin and she doesn’t want to give it up to Hayden she wants to give it to the man she marries. Hayden thinks he is the man who wants to marry her but she told him she wants to get to known him before anything happens. Hayden tells her he is taking her away and paid her boss what he would have made. Lydia feels bad that he would marry her and she was a stripper and it would probably haunt her. Hayden and Lydia landed in London. They went straight to the hotel. Next night they were going to have dinner with a few clients and one of them I knew from the club. He makes some remark about he thought I might be an escort as well as a stripper. Hayden was livid and told Glenn to apologize to Lydia his fiancé. There was a short time that Hayden and Lydia had a big fight and she told him she wanted a divorce because she still wanted to strip to pay off her debts and father’s medical bills. Hayden goes ballistic and that was the fight about they split up and Lydia went t her apartment to nurse her wounds. Meanwhile Hayden is coming apart at the seams his sister finds him on the floor out of it. Twist turns and the date rape drug given to Lydia by Curtis her friend that wanted more. Hayden goes over to her house with his friend and they find Curtis laying down near Lydia who has passed out from the drug. This book will keep you on your toes great story.
Both Lydia Rena Carmichael and Hayden Eric Gaster were two of the most incredibly stubborn people I've ever read about. I wanted to strangle Lydia for her wanting to be fiercely independent and self reliant, even after marriage. In my opinion, she somewhat emasculated Hayden. Thank goodness his love and desire to protect her was every as stubborn as she was.
Lydia tortured herself with the thoughts that she did not come from the same background as Hayden. She thought that she would jeopardize his career if anyone found out she was a stripper. Hayden did not care about her being a stripper and thought It was noble of her to take care of her father while continuing going to college. They hit a bump in the road by the bricks thrown at them from patrons of Make It Rain Strip Club and from his father and sister which only served to push them closer together.
This story was interesting enough to keep me reading to the end but I have to admit that I struggled in parts of it. But, I would like to see a story written about Valen falling in love. There is really potential there as well future stories about their partnership with Sydney and Sebastian.
THIS IS ONE OF THOSE STORIES WHERE YOU KNOW THE HERO AIN'T GONNA CHEAT, IS ALPHA POSSESSIVE AND IN LOVE WITH THE HEROINE AT FIRST SIGHT AND THEY ARE BOTH HOT. IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S SUPER UNREALISTIC, CHEESY BUT LUSTY ROMANCE THAT'S GOOD FOR YOUR IMAGINATION BUT DON'T TAKE IT TO HEART AND CHANGE IT TO REALITY.
HERO is a young 25 billionaire who gets taken by his cousin to a strip club for his birthday and found the love of his life there - a virgin stripper. Of course he does all he can to get the girl, and he's super obssessive and possessive about her although not to the point of psycho, although i don't approve of his going behind her back and beating up her clients...and not to mention killing one of them for being a stalker pedophile. He should have just handed the guy to the authorities. Hayden is okay...but a little too controlling and abit unreal for my taste.
HEROINE is a stripper who is doing it to pay her father medical debts and meets Hayden who pursues her to the end of earth. They go through the typical judgemental and prejudices of what people think of her occupation as a stripper.
Overall I enjoyed the book about Hayden and Lydia. Lydia was too stubborn for her own good, when she married Hayden, she should have given up her life as a stripper; there was no need for her to hang on to that old lifestyle. I understand everywoman wants to feel independent, but in this case Lydia went too far. By chapter 40 I was done with Lydia to the point I almost didn't finish this book, because Lydia got on my nerves with her stubbornness. I'm also glad to see that she made up with Hayden sister, because she turned out to be a true friend.
It was a nice touch bringing Samantha and Jacob, Sebastian and Sydney into the mix which helped the story along.
If there's a part two to this story I just hope that Lydia isn't so whiny.
Hayden, the rich playboy, goes to a strip club for his birthday. There he meets Lydia, a young stripper. Lydia can tell that Hayden is the kind of man who can get whatever he wants. Lydia knows Hayden can do more than provide for her, but the only thing he asks of her is that she stops stripping. Every night he is forced to watch patrons grope and grab her and it kills him inside - he just wants to make her happy and take her away from that wretched place.
I've gotta say I love the way the characters are written, bravo Posey! Hayden is such a gentleman, but not a nice guy (big difference...). I couldn't put this book down until I finished it. It was definitely a HOT read - Hayden is so dreamy
I love the way they are so comfortable and honest with each other, they can confide their inner secrets, even their wet dreams, even from the very beginning. They love so hard and so passionately,however Lydia kind of pissed me off when she wouldn't quit stripping after they got married,... I understand her reasoning,however,the man have up EVERYTHING for you, he is a high profile,and she knows what it does to him, in a way it was selfish and inconsiderate (even with her reasoning). Almost cost them their lives!! Great ending with the little Jr and all. Look forward seen them again!! I love Hayden!! Here is a little clip: her lips. “I love you Lydia. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t have me first. I am yours forever. No one can have me only you.”
Wow this was so good that I almost screamed when the story ended.The writer weaves a web that is so sweet you don't realize you are so caught up in the story until you reach the end.I love me some Hayden,this character was on his I'm a man status from the word go.I loved this character because it wasn't about the money ,or the rank it was just about being with who makes you happy.Now I have to tell you that at one point Lydia got on my nerves!I mean I get wanting to do it on your own but come on she was doing the most.The writer gets it right ,she captures the meaning of this couple and their relationship and writes a story you are going to love.
From the time I started this book I fell in love with Hayden. A true gentleman though and though. Lydia aka Scrumptious has the love of a good man and he wanted to make sure she had that she needed, the only thing he ask was for her to stop Stripping. I felt his pain every everynight he watched the other patrons grab or grop her. Truly happy she finally stop the madness and learn to let her Alpha Man do what he always wanted. Take care of her. Posey another Awesome book love. But we knew you would. Can't wait for Hidden witness 2.
I had to read another book from Posey Parks to see if my interest would be held and, I was captivated to the very last page. Hayden loved hard and was not judgmental of Lydia's occupation. Lydia is caring, loving, ambitious and very independent. Only thing was Hayden was very possessive but I get it and Lydia let her insecurities get to her but not for long before she realized how passionate, honest and true LOVE IT. Trills, suspense and love for my interracial couple was spot on. You would not be disappointed.
If you like reading a book that makes 0 sense, riddled with grammatical mistakes, and a ditzy brained (but “smart”) heroine, then look no further! Combine this with a 25 year old billionaire who fights (kills?) people on the side for “touching his woman” and you’ve got yourself a great book. 10/10 would recommend if you like wasting your time. Don’t bother spending money on this, you’ll only regret it.
I really enjoyed this story and the characters were very entertaining. I loved the story line it was full of drama and romance. I loved how you learned how the Assassins wives were formed. I loved the chemistry between Hayden and Lydia. Hayden was super protective of Lydia. Love Hayden and Lydia's journey. I highly recommend this book to my fellow romance readers you will not be disappointed.
Hayden was a true alpha male with fell for an immature 22yr old child. Lydia got on my last dawn nerves, one minute I love you and the next she is running a way. If I found our I was being stalked since I was a child and then as an adult by several different men I would definitely not go back to stripping! Hayden was wasting his time trying to protect the woman child. She had no redeemable qualities to me!!
Hayden strong alpha man knows what he wants and his love is strong in comes Lydia strong black female... There was a few times I really wanted to punch her up side her head. But Me Parks has done it again will read this book again like most of her books📚📚📚📚📚(give stars)
I have read all your other books and this one has to be your best work as of yet. Don't get me wrong your other books and great but this is one that I couldn't put down. I love Hayden and Lydia and every one that got beat down deserved it and more. Keep up the exciting writing.
Sometimes you meet people who are in it to see what they can get from you.... That is what Lydia seems to be struggling with. I need me a Hayden in my life. The unconditional love he brings to the table had me swooooning clover him. Yelling at Lydia, but understanding where she is coming from. Awesome read.
0.5 stars, I have read other books by this author and this one was a head shaker, none of the characters are relatable, and as a reader this book was very disappointing. To get though this book, I skip a lot of pages. I would not recommend reading this book and as a side note, it was a barely there interracial.
Lydia, Hayden just wants to love and protect you. Any woman would love that. Lydia is a very stubborn, independent woman. Hayden is a determined alpha male who gets what he wants. And Lydia is what he wants.
That was truly a beautiful love story ! You outdid yourself . They both deserved the Love and craziness they shared for each other . Thanks for that story !!!!!👏👏👏👏👏
The story is not something entirely different. I like Hayden, I like his presence of mind and love for Lydia. Whereas Lydia seems to be a little ignorant, taken her profession but she's headstrong and independent which is commendable. the characters are well written. The romance is good
