Stumbled into Love
NOW, IT'S PERSONAL
If Brice Huntington had lived in another time he would have been called a debaucher, a scoundrel, a libertine, and a man leading a profligate life. Holland Baxter has a few choice modern words for him, and effin' jerk is the nicest one she can say here. But... When she finds herself without a home, it turns out Brice can be a good friend. And, as time and proximity give her an up-close look at who he really is, and who he can be, she's intrigued. Yeah, she knows this is a slippery slope, but there's something about him that makes her want to stay.

35 books683 followersI live in Austin, Texas with my husband, daughter, 3 rescue dogs, 1 cat, and one bunny (that doesn't seem to like us). I love reading romance novels as much as I love writing them. I feel like inspiration can come from anywhere; a song lyric, a quote, a weekend with friends. The tiniest things can spark amazing stories.

I absolutely loved Holland and Brice! His enimies to lovers read stole my heart! Brice is a complete manwh0re who has slept his way not only through his office but also his best friends restaurant.
Holland is the manager of said best friends restaurant and takes no crap from Brice. In fact, she had a no sleeping with Brice or you're fired clause added into the employee handbook.
After walking in on her cheating boyfriend, she needs a place to stay and Brice steps up (he's a nice guy sometimes). Plus, he needs a favor. A fake girlfriend to be exact. One thing leads to another and... well you get it. Hot sexy times ensue.
Gah! This book had everything I love.

Stumbled into Love is finally hereeeee and boy is it worth the wait!🥰🙌🏽
I was lucky enough to receive an ARC off LP for this book (Thank You) I binge read the entire book in one sitting, like I knew I would & I couldn’t put it down.
This book is about a loveable playboy & a sassy, take no bullshit girl who happen to have pretty hardcore tease/bust ya balls relationship. But you know that they both secretly love annoying & winding up the other person & the sexual tension between the two is just simmering under the surface.
The story starts with Hollie getting the pleasure of telling Brice he can no longer use where she works as his own personal little black book; & she definitely enjoys telling him.
Brice is a man-whore but actually a really good guy and when Hollie finds herself without a home, it’s Brice who comes to her rescue & the pair form a budding friendship...😏
Throw in a lot of hot sex, a fake girl friend, a concerned best friend & a meddling brother in law & sister...you end up with 💥💥 !!
‘It’s Payback’ <It’s such a sweet & hot AF romance🔥
LP has definitely the knack for writing stories I’m immediately addicted to & making you fall in love with her characters & rooting for their HEA!
Love love love this book..better than I could have imagined! Yous all need to read it. Recommend 💯

This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. Stumbled into love is Brice’s story who we met in Declan’s story.
Brice has worked hard to become vice president at the company he has been at for years. There is a problem though. He has slept with a lot of the woman at the company and his boss isn’t happy. In the spare of the moment he lies and says he has a girlfriend who his boss now wants to meet. Brice needs to find someone to be his fake girlfriend. Holland Baxter hates Brice. All she sees is a spoilt playboy. When her personal life drastically changes, she finds herself spending more time with Brice and even helping him. As sparks fly between Holland and Brice, will they both give in to temptation and their growing feelings?
I really liked Holland. I liked that she was snarky and sarcastic. Her banter with Brice amused me. I liked Brice but I did agree with his boss about him needing to stop being such a playboy.
The chemistry between Holland and Brice is clear to see and I liked the build up to them becoming a couple. The sexual tension between them was through the roof.
Overall, I really enjoyed this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

4.5 stars.
I really enjoyed this book! I enjoyed the first in the duet and this one was a great second act.
Brice is awesome. He totally made me see his point of view, and agree with it.
Holland is fantastic. She’s sassy, and spunky and I totally want to be her BFF!
Together they make a great couple. I also love Cassie and Declan. All four of them are a great group.
I did take half a star away though because I felt the editing and proofreading was a bit rushed and some more time and care could’ve been taken.
This is a great book, a quick one too, so give it a go!

This was an incredible follow up to Happy Place. Brice and Holland's story was the perfect balance of sweet, funny, and steamy with just a bit of heart tugging. It was so much fun watching the perpetual playboy fall and fall hard for Hollie. And seeing Declan and Cassie have an opportunity to get some of their own meddling payback was hilarious. Turn about is fair play after all. I just loved everything about this story. It was well worth the wait. 💙

They started out as friends with benefits. Their story was filled with lust turned love and they were hot together. I loved them together and it was great catching up with everyone from the previous book. This is a must read, get your copy today.

After reading Happy Place, I couldn't wait for Brice's story. Brice is the biggest manwhore and I couldn't wait to see him brought to his knees by Holland, aka Hollie. She is so sassy and always puts him in his place. Stumbled Into Love is even better than I could have imagined!! It's sassy, hysterical and good lord hot AF.

Another great by L.P. Maxa
I loved Brice & Holland's love story. But as always I wish the story was longer. The way they started, what they had to go through & how they ended up. Finally realizing that they belong together. I happily & wholeheartedly recommend this book!
