When Charlotte was younger, she loved to play make-believe. Her best friend's brother was her favorite partner in crime. In their teens, the child's play became anything but. Then a promise was broken along with her heart, and she vowed to leave fantasy behind. Unfortunately, the reality was boring AF, and she found more joy rolling dough in the kitchen than rolling in the sheets. Now he was offering her a role she hadn't played in years. Would history repeat itself, or could he make her dreams finally come true?
When Lance was younger, he had a secret that ruined the best relationship he ever had. It took him years to make his way back into a friendship role with his sister's best friend. Now he was ready to do whatever it took to get her back in his arms again, including pretend for now that his heart didn't beat harder just for her. Lucky for him, he knew a side of her no one else did, and he wasn't above using that knowledge to push his advantage. When the same secret threatens to come between them again, he vows to fight harder than ever to close on the most important deal of his life.
M.K. Condry writes contemporary romance that’s equal parts steamy and smart—designed to make you blush, laugh, and maybe text your partner something filthy. Her heroines are the kind of women you want in your corner (or at brunch), and her heroes? All dirty talk and sinful charm—the kind you’d fantasize about.
She’s a genre-hopping reader with a hard “HEA required” rule. When a story plays it too safe, she hunts down the dark, the taboo, or the downright unhinged just to crank the dial back up.
A Southern California homebody through and through, M.K. likes her bed made, her laundry folded, and her meals planned—until a plot twist pulls her under. By day, she writes. By night, she reads until reality fades.
Another fun and spicy read from M.K. Condry. Charlotte and Lance are a second chance romance. That's my favorite trope and Halves did not disappoint! Charlotte and Lance have some fun sexy times and some truly tender moments. Loved seeing some of the characters from Stages making cameos as well. Bring this one to the beach or the pool and enjoy reading about a couple that likes to keep it a little bit kinky.
Lance and Charlotte were so fun. They had the best banter and a wonderful story that proves the power of soul mates. Halves was such a fun read, full of hope, happiness, laughter, and even some tears.
I loved every bit of this book until the ending - I needed to know more about Charlotte and Lance. I was happily surprised at the ‘bonus’ section of the book and loved learning more about the weekend Hazel and Frank shared so long ago.
Oh man! I am shocked speechless as the conclusion of the book! So many different things have come together and really make it perfect! I can't wait to get started on the third book in this series!
