720 After Hours Dr. by Kaley Knox is part of the multi-author A Cherry Falls Romance series. This story is about Lily, a college student who works at a gentleman's club as a waitress, and Jason, a powerful real estate billionaire (?) who comes to the club one night. They see each other and it is instant attraction and a fairytale begins....or does it?
This was a quick and easy read with a nice couple that have some heat and passion. There is no real drama or major hurdles to get over for the couple It was an enjoyable read.
This was just a bit silly. Felt like it was a little trope crazy to me.
Why do so many of the parents get killed or die before their time in Cherry Falls? Personally, I think I would move away from there... but not to Syn City... although, it seems a little like there are only those two places where you can live in this world. A little Truman Show-esque...
And why are there never consequences for those who have done something wrong?
This was my second book by Kaley Knox and it was just so much better than the first. I loved the story and Jason and Lily just had such great chemistry. The story had an great pace and was just a really great read.

Style: Contemporary Romance (Insta Love) Story: 3/5 Enjoyment: 4/5 Dark Level: 0/5 Sexual Level: GOOD Triggers: No Violence: Yes (Mild) Male: Rich & Obsessive Series: Yes Pages: loc. 980 Audio: N/A Kindle Unlimited: Yes
STORY This was a nice Insta love romance that I enjoyed. It’s your typical Insta that moves rather quickly and, underneath it all, had a rich obsessed tycoon and a poor young woman in her last year of college.
I loved the way they met. The shy, coy young woman and the man who commands all attention. Both of their energies were good to read. Jason became obsessed and a little possessive over Lily and for him, it was love at first sight. Lily was unsure at first, but needed little convincing for her to fall for Jason.
SEXUAL CHEMISTRY: Their sexual chemistry was ok to satisfactory, and it conveyed the mood of the story, but would still have loved a little more.
SECONDARY CHARACTERS There really wasn’t anyone else in the story that stood out as both characters carried it well.
OVERALL For a quickie read, it was nice and I liked it. I wouldn’t say I was blown away, but the story caught my interest to read in one sitting.
✰✰TRIGGERS:
****I don’t equate these stories to real life. It’s about personal taste and what you would or want to tolerate with the books you read. I know we all have different opinions and preferences with what we read. I based my book reviews on my preferences and what I like, and while these preferences may not be the same for others, I hope this review was still helpful.
This is the first title I have read by Kaley Knox, but have been avidly following the Cherry Falls Romance multi-author series - and I am so glad it introduced me to this wonderful writer! 720 After Hours Dr. is a steamy age-gap instalove romance that I couldn't put down. Lily is an orphan, a struggling college student, working at an upscale club in Syn City. The first time she is forced to work in After Hours, the late-night VIP section of the club, she catches the eye of wealthy real estate developer Jason, who from the moment he first sees Lily, knows she will be his. Lily is skeptical that a man as wealthy and attractive could want anything real with a girl like her, but Jason is determined to claim his "angel". Jason is a hot, possessive alpha who knows what he wants, and Lily is a tough but sweet and innocent young woman with so much chutzpa that you cannot help but fall in love with her and root for her. This is a very entertaining read, and a wonderful addition to this phenomenal series!

°Virgin heroine °Very experienced hero °Dual POV °Insta love/lust °OTT alpha hero °No OW/OM drama °No separation °Immature heroine °They used condoms °No cheating or scenes with OP °Least favorite line(s): "The new secretary I hired a week ago intrigued me at the time with her shapely body and her smarts. Since she started her first day at work this morning, she's been sending me signals with her eyes, her hands stroking my arm when she leans close. She's interested in being more than my secretary. Much more. Maybe last week during her interview I might have had some thought to see how she would look naked on my desk with her clothes strewn around. But now all I can think about is my Lily." (I thought he was going to fire her but no, it was mentioned in the epilogue that she was moved to the other side of the building) °I didn't like that the heroine didn't let the H fire the woman who stole her money, she was a bitch °Epilogue: 10 years later -married with 3 kids

This was actually my first book by Ms. Kaley and I will be back for more! I thought that this was an awesome book. I loved Jason and Lily's story. Jason is completely taken with Lily as soon as he sees her and Lily can't deny the pull she feels but she tries to fight it. I loved Jason and his "alphahole-ness" but he can be really sweet with Lily. Lily has some sassy to her but most seems really sweet and determined to archive her dreams. I really enjoyed this book and I would recommend it and Ms. Kaley as a great author.

This instant connection story features an innocent lady trying to reach her goal and an extremely sure of himself man who goes after what he wants. I liked the characters and thought the story was interesting and it flowed along nicely. Their relationship happened quickly and they had a few bumps, but it worked for them and held my interest.

Jason and Lily's story was sweet and steamy . Jason saw Lily and knew she was meant to be his. He knew he would do whatever it took to convince her that they were meant to be together. Entertaining, sweet and had a wonderful HEA epilogue to tie up the story, I definitely enjoyed this book.
Lily is working at a bar/club to pay for college and Jason is a patron of the club and he instantly falls for Lily when he sees her in the VIP section. This is a short, insta love story with likable characters and a great ending. This was my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more books by her in the future. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
This is a first time read from this author for me and I can confidently say it won’t be the last. Fantastic storyline, great characters, steamy NSFW scenes and an incredibly sweet HEA along with peeks into the future. It’s everything you want in a good short read!
Jason was a very persistent man, when he saw Lily.. Love at first sight is what he called it. They were pretty inseparable after meeting and everything began to fall into place. After getting married and having kids, Lily and Jason became the perfect power couple and still in love.
Lily catches powerful Jason’s eye at an exclusive club. He’s commanding her to stay close, and she can’t lose her job, so he caves. That’s one example of how both characters go in and out of their established profile as the plot careens to its happy ending.
Cole and Lily's story won't give you time to blink. Insta-fast, insta-love at its best. I easily fell in love too. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I enjoyed this. A vulnerable, yet strong woman who knows her own mind and strong alpha male, who allows the woman to grow and shine while protecting her heart. Jason and Lily were beautiful, and insta love at its finest.
Another five star read in the amazing world of Cherry Falls. Jason and Lily's story was absolutely perfect. Love these incredible characters and returning to Cherry Falls every week.
Lily works at a gentleman’s club to pay for her college as a waitress but one night working the VIP room changes her life when billionaire Jason falls for her in this sweet tale.
A lighthearted, insta love read. I liked the concept of this story. I loverd the first half of this book, however the secong half was okay. The characters were likable and had good chemistry. Overall was all right.
The moment Jason spots Lily across the room he knows she is the one for him, now he just has to make her see that as well. Lily is just trying to make enough money to make it through school but can a successful man like Jason really want her?
This was a truly HEA romance. Super Alpha male and down on her luck virgin heroine. Yes, I know but it works. I really thought Lily should have addressed Betsy because bullies only care about themselves. Plus she stole her tips, the worse.
Jason's instincts tell him the moment he sees Lily across the room she would be his. Her innocence calls to him to protect her and he will do anything to make sure she's safe.
Definitivamente fue instantáneo, lo que no me molestó, pero sentí que la relación podría haber avanzado a un ritmo lento. No hubo ningún desarrollo emocional entre la pareja y todo lo que pude ver fue su conexión física.
Lily and Jason met while she was serving drinks in the club After hours. Insta love, sweet, romantic, safe, steamy and with a HEA and no drama. Just sweet romance👍👍👍
