About the author
Janice Maynard
550 books431 followersJanice Maynard came to the writing life early! When her third grade short story, “The Princess and the Robbers”, won a red ribbon in a school arts fair, Janice was hooked. She followed up that early success with a more commercial piece in the sixth grade… “Why My Mom Loves To Drink Coke”. No advance for that one, but she won a six-pack of Coke… remember those great little bottles?
In junior high Janice began circulating her work to a wider audience. A dozen or so notebook pages stapled together made the rounds in some particularly boring classes, with the riveting tales carefully hidden behind textbooks.
High school meant the big time… editor of the school newspaper, the Maroon and White. Janice used her insightful editorials to delve into such meaty subjects as “locker room odor” and “why we need two-ply tissue in the student bathrooms”.
College brought lots of writing, but very little of it creative… four years later, Janice stepped into the adult world as a fully certified elementary teacher.
Despite motherhood, full-time employment, and keeping up with an “always into something” husband, Janice never lost her love of writing or the desire to be published. In 1996 she realized her long-time dream when Kensington Publishing bought her first book, Sweetheart. That exciting moment was followed by the sales of two more books in the Precious Gem line.
In the fall of 2002, Janice left the classroom to pursue writing full-time.

I love second chance romances. It is probably my favorite troupe. There is just something about finding love again after thinking that it would never work. This is that story. Katie Duncan left Quinten Stone two years ago thinking they could never work. Being thrown together again proves just how wrong she was and just how right they are together.
Quin will make you swoon. "Every beat of your heart is mine. When you breathe, I breathe." Ahhh.. swoon.
You don't want to miss this new series. Can't wait for the rest of the series.

Great start to a series.
Quin was trying to put his life back together. Katie had a secret and avoided Quin at all costs.
Such chemistry and a great story!
Loved it.

Another great book by Janice Maynard. Katie and Quinten used to date until Katie ended it. Working for the Stones buisness. Katie managed to avoid her ex. Now she has been asked to work for Quinten at his home. Quinten is stuck at home after a knee replacement surgery. A competitive skier, being stuck at home isnt easy. Now his ex is here. He still wants her but can he convince Katie?
Katie is still very attracted to Quinten but just doesnt feel comfortable with his lavish lifestyle.
As the two exes are forced to spend time together. Can they resist the attraction to each others?
I really enjoyed reading Katie and Quinten's story, read along as Janice takes us to New York and Maine. Following the romance as Katie and Quinten find there way to their happy ending.
Highly recommended for fans of second chance romance,

Katie Duncan and Quinten Stone, billionaire CEO of Stone River Outdoors Company, had an affair two years ago. Katie is Quin's brother Farrell's admin at their company. No one at Stone River knew about their affair. That's why Katie ended up at Quin's Maine cabin assisting him during his rehab from knee replacement surgery. Since Farrell and Quin's other brother, Zach knew noting about her affair with Quin Katie didn't think she could come up with a good enough reason not to take on the assignment of assisting Quin in Maine. Katie and Quinn had a blazing hot sex life two years ago. The problem Katie had back then was that Quin was a closed-up shell of a man. Katie just couldn't break through and get to know who Quin really was. Katie couldn't live with that so she broke up with him. Now here she is at Quin's secluded cabin for a six week assignment. Katie is very nervous because she knows she will struggle with being so close physically with Quin for six whole weeks. Katie is still attracted to him.
Quinten Stone nearly died in the auto accident that killed his father. Quin survived with a majorly busted up right leg. Following a couple surgeries Quin, world renowned competitive skier, stupidly hit the slopes prematurely and mangled his leg again requiring knee replacement surgery. Having learned his lesson at last Quin swears to his brothers that he will follow doctor's orders this time rehab properly and take it easy. Having Katie in his cabin with him is incentive to make the effort. Quin never forgot Katie and was very upset when she broke up with him. He is anxious to see if they can make a relationship work this time around. Quin knows he is still very attracted to Katie. Now to see how she feels.
After Hours Seduction by Janice Maynard is the first book in her Men of Stone River Trilogy. This is a delightful second chance romance. Katie and Quin go back and forth in this reunion. They definitely have their ups and downs. I enjoyed reading about the close relationship of the three brothers. There is also a hint here for the upcoming books about suspected corporate espionage. That will be interesting to follow. The next book in the series is Upstairs Downstairs Temptation, Farrell's story.

A decadent reunion! With the first book in her brand new The Men of Stone River series, Janice Maynard delights her readers with a new family dynasty to sink their teeth into. The Stone brothers spend their days running their successful outdoor gear company and their nights enjoying life ... or not. With this first book, we get Quin's story and meet his brothers. I loved their dynamic and look forward to more in the series!
Quinten Stone is easy to like. He's recovering from an accident that change his life forever, and he's anxious to get out and enjoy the world again. To avoid an over-eager backslide, his brothers decide to send the job to him in his isolated Maine home.
Katie Duncan is a strong, sassy character. She can't really believe she let her boss Farrell convince her to go stay with Quin during his recovery to get some work taken care of ... but considering he didn't know about her secret love affair with his brother, she couldn't exactly use the awkward factor as a reason not to go.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a romantic reunion. The book was fast paced and had lots of interaction and plot points. I really enjoyed it and look forward to Farrell's story next.

The kind of quarantine to get excited about.
A quote I have been clinging to in the age of quarantine: READING FICTION DOESN’T HELP US ESCAPE THE WORLD, IT HELPS US LIVE IN IT (from harrypottersacredtext.com). That is 100% true of Janice Maynard's After Hours Seduction. Quinten Stone has taken one too many risks, and has ended up in a quarantine of his own to allow himself to heal after a ski accident. His two brothers conspire against him to have one of their extremely capable employees come live with Quin while he recuperates, and assist him with work for their family-run outdoor store. What the brothers don't know is that Quin and Katie dated...and she dumped him. The next few weeks are filled with work, friendship, and sexual tension, culminating in a weekend in New York City fit for a Bachelor Fantasy Suite episode. Perhaps more than any other heroine I've read recently, Katie's convictions of her own self-worth and her rightful place in the life of the man she loves had me cheering for Quentin to come to his senses. The unusual-for-me setting of Maine and the promise of two more stories in this trilogy about the Stone brothers has me excited that I'll only have to wait a few weeks for the next installment.

After Hours Seduction by Janice Maynard s a toss between a close proximity and a second chance romance. This is the first book of the Men of Stone River Trilogy. The three brothers who make up this series are hardworking billionaires. This story focuses on Quinten Stone the brother who has the most health issues and is struggling with other emotional issues.
Katie Duncan and Quinten Stone have a past history which didn’t work out for them. Now Kate’s boss, Quinn’s brother, has sent her to his home to help him. While Kate may say that she isn’t interested in Quinn, one has to wonder why she agreed to go. I know the arguments but she must have still had an interest besides the usual attraction.
A fling didn’t work out last time without someone being hurt but perhaps this time will be different. My real question was could these two ever just have a fling? That question demanded an answer so I kept reading to see. Sure enough by the end the answer is revealed. Entertaining story of the romance and problems that billionaires can have.
The publisher/author gave me a complimentary ARC of the book which I voluntarily chose to read and reviewed. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2020
Youngest Stone brother, Quinten, is CEO of a family company. Eighteen months after the accident that killed his father and injured Quinten, company employee, Katie is asked to assist Quinten in his home recovery. No one knows that Quinten and Katie were involved in a secret affair 6 months prior to the accident. When Katie arrives they realize that chemistry between the two characters is still there. Can she keep this assignment strictly business for 6 weeks? I just fell in love with this story. I found myself routing for Katie and Quinten, even knowing why it did not work before. The writer makes you see Main and New York through the eyes of the characters. I fell in love with this story and am so happy it is Book 1 of a new series. I look forward to seeing what happens in the future books, not only to Quinten and Katie, but also to the characters introduced in this story. This story does not disappoint,

I'm a sucker for second chance romances and enjoyed this first book in the new Men of Stone series. Kat's sweet but sassy charm was the perfect match for Quin's. From a near perfect weekend in New York City to walks on the beach in Maine, card games and stargazing, and working together through a frightening storm, this story had a little of everything. It all worked perfectly to show how Katie and Quin learned to appreciate each other for more than their chemistry, something that they hadn't managed when they'd been involved two years before. While the start to the book was a tad slow for my liking, I found myself hooked by the half way point and couldn't put it down. I knew they'd have a happily ever after, but felt such relief when they managed to overcome their dark moment. And Quin's apology-exceptional! Proof that he really had been listening to Kat all along!
I'm so looking forward to reading more about the Stone brothers!

Book 1 in the 'Men of Stone River' three book series is "After Hours Seduction" by Janice Maynard. I love reading Harlequin Desire books because it is one step up from contemporary romance, but not quite erotica. This was a really good read and brings us into the series.
Billionaire Quinten Stone is the CEO of Stone River Outdoors Company, and he almost died in a car accident that killed his father. After he stupidly decides to hit the ski slopes prematurely he has an accident. Katie Duncan agrees to come and help Quin with his rehabilitation after knee surgery, because her boss, Farrell, is asked her to help his brother Quin. She agrees to spend 6 weeks at Quin's secluded house in Maine. The only problem is that she walked away from their affair 2 years ago.
There is so much depth to this story and lots of good romance. It will lead us into Book 2 "Upstairs Downstairs Temptation" and book 3 "Secrets of a Playboy."

After Hours Seduction by Janice Maynard was absolutely a page turner, and I
could not wait to get to the very end! I was intrigued on how Katie Duncan and
her former boyfriend, Quinten Stone, would be able to live together under the
same roof; not to mention work together until Quinten is able to go back to his
office.
Everything seems fine, but after weeks of working together, it seems that their
chemistry has not changed - they are drawn to each other. But, can Katie walk
away again, or will she give into her desires? Will Quinten understand why she
walked away the first time, or will their history repeat itself?
I really enjoyed this book and read it in just one afternoon. Janice Maynard makes
these characters the perfect couple. The question is, will her magic writing get
them through everything?
It is a must read!!! I enjoyed it completely.

I loved this book! Second chance at its very best! I love the world Ms Maynard creates in which her characters can roam and be in lust and in love. Because who can resist long hours alone with your hunky and rich ex, especially when the heroine in this story broke up with him a few years ago, but never could get him out of her heart?
When Katie Duncan agrees to work with her boss’s brother, she knows she’s stepping into the lion’s den. The man she’ll be living with is her former lover, billionaire Quinten Stone. Their passion sizzled until Katie couldn’t accept Quinten’s wealthy world. She’d walked away to save herself. Now the alpha CEO is back in her life, tempting as ever…and hell-bent on seducing Katie back into his bed…

Janice Maynard is a go to author for me. This book did not do it for me though. Quin and Katie had a relationship two years ago and Katie broke things off with little explanation. The fact that Quin and Katie had an established relationship when the book began, the reader was deprived of the opportunity to watch the relationship develop between the two characters. Developing the angst between characters as they get to know each other has always been a strength of Ms. Maynards for me. In this case, I was disappointed. I did purchase the other two books in the series featuring other Stone brothers. I hope to enjoy them more than I did this novel.

This is the first book in a new series that is shaping up to be a great one, if the first book is any indication. The characters are all likeable and the story was interesting. The love interests were page turning and throw in a hurricane. What more could you want? Can’t wait for the next brother’s story.

Another Janice Maynard home run! I’m a big fan of her series that feature hunky men. This time the family is based in Maine. Maynard describes the settings so perfectly, I can feel the wind, smell the pine, and feel Dare’s silky hair as Katie runs her fingers through it. Great heart-melting story.

QUINN & KATIE
A lot of assumptions and mlsunderstandings without commication on both sides. The brothers love and understanding for each other was valuable with a tyrant for a father. Ready for book two.

This book is one that I truly enjoyed. I felt the storyline was great and the writing was superb as usual. I have always enjoyed Ms. Maynard's book and this is one that I will reread

Slow moving. Wasn't what I expected after reading "This is War". Im giving it 2.5-3 stars at most.
